📖 What It's About
The lyrics tell the story of a square dreaming of becoming a circle, yearning to fit in, to roll freely like others, but ultimately finding its own meaning. It’s a metaphor for identity, self-acceptance, and the beauty of staying true to who you are—even if you’re “different.”💬 Why I Love It
“Dream of a Square” feels like a bedtime story set to music. IU’s soft, youthful voice and the minimalist arrangement create a warm, reflective space. It’s simple on the surface, but deeply philosophical underneath—a rare kind of magic that stays with you long after listening.🎧 Listen Now
