[Verse 1]
지친 하루 끝에
다시 무너져 내려
멈춰 서지 않게
내 이름을 불러줘
홀로 웅크린 채
점점 깊이 헤매 넌
So you keep on holding it back
But you can't see how
[Pre-Chorus]
낯선 세상 속에서
널 기다리고 있어
Why'd you ever doubt it?
No never be scared of trying
잠시 잊었던 꿈들에
다시 닿을 수 있게
너의 맘의 소리를 들어, baby
So, what if all of this could just be so easy just like?
[Chorus]
Don't change, let go
Be brave, be strong
I know you got it
Go, fail forward
Go get your voice heard, don't fold
다시 널 찾아가 into the unknown
[Post-Chorus]
Don’t let it be
Go chase your dreams
Dive in, dive in, into the unknown
한 걸음씩 더 가까이
다시 널 찾아가 into the unknown
[Verse 2]
잊지는 마 your reasons
오늘의 너를 위해 (Ayy)
달려왔던 날의 story
I won't let it fade away
어둠 속의 memory
길을 잃어버렸던 you and me
And in the ice cold nights, I'll be guiding you right
And I promise that you can count on me like
[Verse 3]
Tell mе how you gon' get it (Gon' get it)
Don't try and you nevеr gon' get it (Oh, yeah)
첨 그날처럼 널 rewind
다시 look in your eyes, 지금 이 순간
설렘이 다시 몰아칠 때. 한 번 더 널 맡긴 채
용기 내볼 수 있게. 새로운 꿈을 꿔
We won't stop, you can break it
갇혀버린 한계를 깨
[Pre-Chorus]
같은 장면 속에서
아직 헤매고 있어
Why'd you ever doubt it?
No never be scared of trying
잠시 잊었던 꿈들에
다시 닿을 수 있게
너의 맘의 소릴 들어, baby
[Chorus]
Don't change, let go
Be brave, be strong
But take it easy, no rush
I know you got it
Go, fail forward
Go get your voice heard, don't fold
다시 널 찾아가 into the unknown
[Post-Chorus]
Don't let it be
Go chase your dreams
Dive in, dive in, into the unknown
한 걸음씩 더 가까이
And I know that
[Bridge]
뛰어들어 너를 향해
두려워도 네가 만들어낸
파동에 dive in. dive in
I don't know what ocean
긴 숨 쉬고 밑에 닿아
Pearls reflect our diamonds
거친 파도보다
마음의 갈망이 더 일으켜 wave
Be brave (Be brave)
Be strong (Be strong)
Dive into the unknown now
[Chorus]
Don't change, let go
Be brave, be strong
But take it easy, no rush
I know you got it
Go, fail forward
Go get your voice heard, don't fold
다시 널 찾아가 into the unknown
[Post-Chorus]
Don't let it be
Go chase your dreams
Dive in, dive in, into the unknown
한 걸음씩 더 가까이
다시 널 찾아가 into the unknown
[Outro]
Say what you like
이렇게 너를 부르잖아, oh, yeah
I know you try
꿈꾸던 너를 잊지는 마 (I know you try)
So say what you like
또 다른 꿈에 닿을 때까지
다시 널 찾아가 into the unknown

IIIII. English
At the end of a weary day
You fall down again
To keep you from stopping
Call out my name
Crouching alone
You wander deeper and deeper
So you keep on holding it back
But you can't see how
[Pre-Chorus: Renjun, Haechan, Mark]
In this unfamiliar world
I'm waiting for you
Why'd you ever doubt it?
No, never be scared of trying
To reach again the dreams
You momentarily forgot
To hear the voice of your heart, baby
So, what if all of this could just be so easy just like?
Don't change, let go
Be brave, be strong
But take it easy, no rush
I know you got it
Go, fail forward
Go get your voice heard, don't fold
Find yourself again into the unknown
[Post-Chorus: Renjun, Haechan]
Don’t let it be
Go chase your dreams
Dive in, divе in, into the unknown
One step closеr
Find yourself again into the unknown
[Verse 2: Jaemin, Jaemin & Renjun, Jeno, Jisung]
Don't forget your reasons
For today's you (Ayy)
The story of the days you've run through
I won't let it fade away
Memories in the darkness
You and me who lost our way
And in the ice-cold nights, I'll be guiding you right
And I promise that you can count on me like
[Verse 3: Mark, Jaemin, Jeno, Chenle]
You got one more shot
Tell me how you gon' get it (Gon' get it)
Don't try and you never gon' get it (Oh, yeah)
Rewind you like the first day
Look in your eyes again, this moment
When excitement rushes back in, entrust yourself to it once more
To be able to muster the courage, dream a new dream
We won't stop, you can break it
Break the limitations you're trapped in
And now you see that, yeah
[Pre-Chorus: Chenle, Renjun]
In the same scene
You're still wandering
Why'd you ever doubt it?
No, never be scared of trying
To reach again the dreams
You momentarily forgot
To hear the voice of your heart, baby
[Chorus: Haechan, Jeno, Chenle]
Don't change, let go
Be brave, be strong
But take it easy, no rush
I know you got it
Go, fail forward
Go get your voice heard, don't fold
Find yourself again into the unknown
[Post-Chorus: Jisung, Chenle]
Don't let it be
Go chase your dreams
Dive in, dive in, into the unknown
One step closer
And I know that
[Bridge: Jeno, Mark, Both]
Jump towards you
Even if you're scared, dive in
Into the waves you created
Dive in, I don't know what ocean
Take a deep breath and reach the bottom
Pearls reflect our diamonds
More than the rough waves
It's the longing of the heart that stirs up more waves
Be brave (Be brave)
Be strong (Be strong)
Dive into the unknown now
[Chorus: Renjun, Chenle, Haechan]
Don't change, let go
Be brave, be strong
But take it easy, no rush
I know you got it

I'm calling you like this, oh, yeah
I know you try
Don't forget the you who used to dream (I know you try)
So say what you like
Until you reach another dream
Find yourself again into the unknown
