Sights and sounds distract me from my purpose in this sad charade
So I beat the ground with leaps and bounds
If they can found then I’ll find a way, to be free evermore, but still can be sure if I found what I’m looking for
But all I found was misery, it stole the ground from under me, now I always stand out, in a crowd of, love and victory
I was nothing, til you rescued me
I was nothing nothing nothing, til you rescued me
Tightly bound in a worldly fetters six feet down as I waste away
The preacher told me to pray, but I turned away, in beauty and pleasure I stored up my treasure, all the riches a man never needs,
but the rich are still poor, and the wise still unsure, and I don’t know what I’m looking for
If I came like a beggar, you stood like a king,
and my black heart would tremble, and heaven would sing
You saved me, yes you saved , yes you saved me from my misery
You saved me, yes you saved, you’re erasing all my history

Gonna Be Honest, "Letters and Drinks" will make you happy, cry, and want to get up and dance. The album is put together like a story: meeting new people, leave them in a better place than you found them,and where you want them to Dance With Me. As you are trying to better yourself, tragic events put you in a rough patch where you are Six Feet Above. Through 11:11 wishes, you start to find yourself again and meet new individuals that make your Heart Smiles to take all your troubles far away. kvang

Jae Jin's effort is what K-pop should be but is not - not over produced, possessed of a memorable vocal color, a good sense of narrative and flexible timing in the vocal phrases - and the postlude actually made me stop what I was doing to listen.
