ABOUT/MEANING: ‘Nap of a Star’ conveys a deep sense of longing and vulnerability, capturing the boys'* yearning to stay connected to something - or someone - beyond their immediate grasp. The metaphor of stars represents childhood dreams, the uncertainty of growing up, and the process of chasing ideals that may seem unreachable. While the "nap" symbolizes a peaceful moment of rest and reflection, where the boys find comfort in their memories and dreams, even when they feel distant. The fear of forgetting these moments speaks to the anxieties of youth, but also the process of overcoming those struggles step by step. This track embodies the boys' journey of navigating the complexities of growing up, as they strive to hold onto what truly matters, find solace in their shared bond, and continue pursuing their dreams despite the challenges they face.

LYRICS - ENGLISH TRANSLATION

I can see, even if you're not in front of me

I feel you, even if you don’t say a thing

Because I believe in you, even if I’m anxious

I can touch, even if you're not in front of me

I reach, even if you go far away from me

My heart dances just at the memory of you

Just like it did before​

I wanna be your nap and dream together, always

As if nothing is wrong

Even in the evening when the sun sets

Even in the darkened night sky

My heart is completely filled with you

Wooo woooooo

Wooo wooo

The memories of my childhood years dancing in the starlight

Even if they gradually fade away

I hope we can be together, clear in your dreams

Even though I call out to you in the night sky

The black silence has no answer

I’m afraid

Afraid that I'll forget this

The magical moments, the night sky we walked under

I'm afraid they’ll just disappear like a dream

In my dream

You slowly came to me

And told me

That you missed me

To me, who was crying

You said not to worry (to not worry)

You softly said

I wanna be your nap and dream together, always

As if nothing is wrong

The magical moments, the glowing night sky

It's engraved in my heart
