moonchild Lyrics
[Intro]
We're born in the moonlight
Ain't no fantasy
Can't breathe in the sunlight
Gotta hide your heart
We born to be sad, sad, sad, sad
Suffer to be glad, glad, glad, glad
[Verse 1]
Come on, ya'll, moonchild, moonchild
That's how it's supposed to be
Yeah, all these pain and all these sorrows
That's our destiny, see?
You and my life was like this
We gotta dance in the rain, dance in the pain
Even though we crash down
We gon' dance in the plane
우리에겐 누구보다 밤의 풍경이 필요해
그 어느 누구도 아닌 나만이 날 위로해
It's okay to shed the tears
But don't you tear yourself
[Chorus]
Moonchild, you shine
When moon rise, it's your time
Come on, ya'll
Moonchild, don't cry
When moon rise, it's your time
Come on, ya'll
Moonchild, you shine
When moon rise, it's your time
Come on, ya'll
떠나도 절대 한 번도 떠나지지가 않아
죽고 싶다며 그만큼 넌 또 열심히 살아
다 내려놓고 싶다며 또 다른 추를 달아
생각하지 말란 생각조차 생각이잖아
You know 사실은 우린 이런 운명이란 걸
You know 끝없는 고통 속에 웃는 거란 걸
You know 자유를 말하는 순간 자유는 없어
You know
Do you know?
[Verse 3]
달의 시간에 영혼의 눈으로 저 밤하늘을 봐
너에겐 보여줄거야 너의 창 너의 시간
알고 있니 저 가로등에도 가시가 많아
저 명멸하는 빛을 자세히 한 번 쳐다봐
야경이란 게 참 잔인하지 않니
누구의 가시들이 모여 펼쳐진 장관이
분명 누군간 너의 가시를 보며 위로받겠지
우린 서로의 야경, 서로의 달
[Bridge]
우린 서로의 야경, 서로의 달
우린 서로의 야경, 서로의 달
우린 서로의 야경, 서로의 달
About
“Moonchild” is the 3rd track from RM’s mixtape mono.
It corresponds to RM’s verse in his and Taehyung’s song “4 o'clock.”
I collect myself that’s shattered beneath the moonlight
I call you moonchild
We are the children of the moon
I breathe the cold night air
Yes we’re livin' and dyin'
Backed by a relaxed instrumental and a heavy beat, the song’s lyrics urge those who are struggling to find comfort in the darkness. The lyrics encourage those who are enduring personal hardships to hold on to hope and find light, like light from the moon, within themselves.

I’ve started to work on the song from February 2017. I decided to write a song [named] “Moonchild,” because I just like the wording.
I’ll explain this song simply for you. People who prefer the night, during the day, they are feeling choked, wether it’s because of the job or something else. Then at night, they are getting away from others' eye, and getting away from the shackles. People who feel a sense of freedom. I think there will be lots of people like that, especially these days. People like me.
It took almost two years to finish the song. This song is dedicated to all the Moonchildren out there.
On a VLive talking about the album, RM said:
In fact, I’ve started to write “Moonchild” before writing “4 O’CLOCK”. So in a way, I gave you a spoiler for “Moonchild” with “4 O’CLOCK”.
