Sometimes I think of when our reality felt like a dream
I worry about the seagull that always laughed for us
Even if we're on the same boat, you are alone in a different ocean
But I will continue to always be the lighthouse you can rely on
Yeah, this is fate and that's a fact
When it gets too hard, I will be your green light
Treasure deeply what I'll say next
Feel like what, we gon' stay

-Jisung-

He locked himself in the shared room. He asked the youngest, his roommate, to lend him their shared room. He told him that he needs time alone. He hopes that he will feel better after locking himself in for some times.

He was wrong. He feels worse. Those rude comments that were made in front of him killed him. He never has the best self-love, but he is not the lowest either. But after hearing those rude comments, his self-love hit rock bottom leaving nothing in him to love about himself.

He believed that he has nothing to be loved or admired. He believed that all those things that his fans told him were all lied. He believed that the talent he has was only something that made him easier to be hated by others. He filled his mind with all those thoughts he believed until he was pull to a hug.

Jeongin: Hyung, please don't listen to them.

I remember what I would say
Every night a long time ago
The compass I saw in my dreams
Now I know that it's you
Now that time has passed, I realize you were so young
But you looked so big back then
That side of you became my strength

-Felix-

He read. He read again. He read again and again. Half of him scream for him to stop scrolling yet half of him is curious about what will the rest be. He knows he isn't supposed to open the comments section. He knows he did wrong but yet his fingers keep on scrolling for more and his eyes read more.

He no longer stay sane. He start to fall into self-hated zone. He start to believe everything that was written there. He start to forget about those who sincerely praise him. He start to forget about those comments who defend him. He is too deep into the zone of self-hated.

His eyes hurt from all those holding in. His mind has given up on stopping him to stop reading. He keeps on reading and reading not realising that a hand has snatched away his phone away.

Seungmin: It's not true Lix. Everything they said is a lie. All of them are.

I'll be your home (I'll be your home, yeah)
Oh-oh, oh-oh, I'll be your home
(Ooh, I'll be your home, I'll be your home, I'll be your home)
I'll be your home
Oh-oh, oh-oh, I'll be your home

-Seungmin-

Seated in front of the piano. He look at it as he grazed his fingers along the keys. He try once again. He try to hit those notes he desperate to hit one again. He failed. He try once again ending up with a terrible voice crack at the end.

His throat burns. He gulp down more water hoping it would calm the burning sensation in his throat. He try to hit a lower key but as his mouth open, no sound came out as he has exhausted his voice. He glanced at the calendar, hanging just by the door as one of the date are circled in red ink.

The day they will have their comeback. He is given the chance to sing a higher note than what he used to sing. He feels burden with him scaring that he will bring the group down if he failed in hitting those notes. He try once again but again, only a squek escape of those trembling lips.

Changbin: Take a rest Min-ah. You have worked hard enough.

Among everything that flows, this is only one part
You can write this down, I believe you will pass on this bookmark
It's more natural if you let yourself get lost in the flow
But I don't want this to sound like we're about to depart
If I ever get lost, I won't make it obvious
I'ma call back, don't forget the tone that I used to call you with
Chant it like we always did
Hope we always feel like

-Jeongin-

It's a truth that he hated the fact of things not going on his way. He hated everything that went out of the way he has planned before hand. He has practiced every day for the stage. He looks forward toward the stage but his voice failed him.

His voice cracks at the end of the note. His face's expression change directly as he is too disappointed on his voice that he forgot how to control his expression.

He is known to be someone who rarely cry yet that day he shed a tear. His tears come running down no matter how hard he tried to held in. He ignores every reassurance that other give him. He believed that he has messed up real bad.

Chan: Hey, Innie, it's okay. Everyone did a mistake. You have a did a great job. It's okay.
