Intro:

Verse 1:
어두운 밤보다 낮이
무서워져
빛이 닿지 않는 내 방이
익숙해져 하나씩
Am I just crazy or dreamin’ awake?
이제는 I can’t escape
반복된 하루에 무뎌져가 oh I no

Pre-Chorus:
눈을 가려
Demons in the night
Para-Noia
Don’t you look behind!

Chorus:
Oh my my my
난 숨겨져 있길 원해
Don’t ma, ma, mind
아무도 찾지 못하게

You can run
You can hide
But they always find
번져가 in your heart
They live in the dark!

Post-Chorus:
La-La
La-La-La (Uh!)
La-La, La

Verse 2:
빛 하나 없는 공간
어둠이 올 때
표정따윈 다 사라져 또 이렇게
끊임없이 들려와 지독한 밤
Wasn’t with me back then
But they right here now

날 찾아오는 악몽에
Nightmares make me go insane
까맣게 짙어진 밤
내 맘속에 있는 monster
Alone in the dark

Pre-Chorus:
눈을 가려
Demons in the night
Para-Noia
Don’t you look behind!

Chorus:
Oh my my my
난 숨겨져 있길 원해
Don’t ma, ma, mind
아무도 찾지 못하게

You can run
You can hide
But they always find
번져가 in your heart
They live in the dark!

Post-Chorus:
La-La
La-La-La
La-La, La, La
La
La-La
La-La-La
They live in the dark!
La-La
La-La-La
La-La, La, La

La-La

Bridge:
턱 끝까지 차오르는 숨이
날 깨워, I I I I Wanna
더럽혀진 생각은 이미
번져가, I I I don’t wanna
Ah, ah, I I don’t wanna
Ah, ah, I I don’t wanna
Ah, ah, I I don’t wanna
Ah, ah!

Chorus:
Oh my my my
난 숨겨져 있길 원해
Don’t ma, ma, mind
아무도 찾지 못하게

You can run
You can hide
But they always find
번져가 in your heart
They live in the dark!

Verse 1:
Days are as dark as the night
It’s getting scary
In my lightless room
It’s becoming routine, one by one
Am I just crazy or dreamin’ awake?
Now I can’t escape
Every day repeats and I become numb

Pre-Chorus:
Close your eyes
Demons in the night
Para-Noia
Don’t you look behind!

Chorus:
Oh my my my
I want to hide
Don’t ma, ma, mind
So, no one can find me

You can run
You can hide
But they always find
Spreading slowly in your heart
They live in the dark!

Post-Chorus:
La-La
La-La-La (Uh!)
La-La, La

Verse 2:
In a space without a single light
When the darkness comes
I lay expressionless, again and again
An endless fear, a terrible night
Wasn’t with me back then
But they right here now

Nightmares coming to see me
Nightmares make me go insane
A dark night
With the monster that lives inside
Alone in the dark

Pre-Chorus:
Close your eyes
Demons in the night
Para-Noia
Don’t you look behind!

Chorus:
Oh my my my
I want to hide
Don’t ma, ma, mind
So, no one can find me

You can run
You can hide
But they always find
Spreading slowly in your heart
They live in the dark!

Post-Chorus:
La-La
La-La-La
La-La, La, La
La
La-La
La-La-La
They live in the dark!
La-La
La-La-La
La-La, La, La
La
La-La
La-La-La

Bridge:
Out of breath in a panic
Wake me up, I I I I Wanna
Bad thoughts have already been made
Spreading slowly, I I I don’t wanna
Ah, ah, I I don’t wanna
Ah, ah, I I don’t wanna
Ah, ah, I I don’t wanna
Ah, ah!

Chorus:
Oh my my my
Like an unawakenable nightmare
Don’t ma, ma, mind
Dig deeper, deeper

You can run
You can hide
But they always find
Spreading slowly in your heart
They live in the dark!

Outro:
La-La
