Lyrics, Romanization & English Translation

Verse 1

Yes sir

No king, no queen, no court jester

저 밤하늘에 소원을 기도해서 누가 들어줘?

jeo bam-ha-neul-e so-won-eul gi-do-hae-seo nu-ga deul-eo-jwo?

Nobody, 신도 손 뗐어

Nobody, sin-do son ttess-eo

별도 따서 팔아치워버리는 이 도시에서

byeol-do tta-seo pal-a-chi-wo-beo-ri-neun i do-si-e-seo

숨도 못 뱉어

sum-do mos baet-eo

입 열면 혀도 뺏겨

ip yeol-myeon hyeo-do ppaes-gyeo

꿈 같은 건 꿈 같은 소리

kkum gat-eun geon kkum gat-eun so-ri

Chorus

꿔도 못 깨어나

kkwo-do mos kkae-eo-na

Till you rest in peace

목숨 내어 성공해서

mok-sum nae-eo seong-gong-hae-seo

Nobody's sayin' cheese on their way to mo' chedda

No answer, 찾아봐 지도에서

No answer, chat-a-bwa ji-do-e-seo

살 길은 비좁고 막다른 길은 쌔고 쌨어

sal gil-eun bi-jop-go mak-da-reun gil-eun ssae-go ssaess-eo

Feel like I'm back in the Map the Soul era

I'ma be awake forever

Verse 3

I'm sleepless in Seoul

Sleepless in Seoul

I'm sleepless in Seoul

또 밤새 뒤척이고 있다

tto bam-sae dwi-cheok-i-go iss-da

불안한 생각들과 후회들이 내 방안에 모여든다

bul-an-han saeng-gak-deul-gwa hu-hoe-deul-i nae bang-an-e mo-yeo-deun-da

저 처량한 달빛이, 달빛이 나야

jeo cheo-ryang-han dal-bit-i, dal-bit-i na-ya

저 쓸쓸한 별빛이, 별빛이 나야

jeo sseul-sseul-han byeol-bit-i, byeol-bit-i na-ya

이 도시의 소란이 앗아간 평온함

i do-si-ui so-ran-i as-a-gan pyeong-on-ham

Verse 4

두 눈과 귀를 잠식하네 세상의 분노가

du nun-gwa gwi-reul jam-sik-ha-ne se-sang-ui bun-no-ga

무책임한 말들과 불평등의 악순환

mu-chaek-im-han mal-deul-gwa bul-pyeong-deung-ui ak-sun-hwan

열정만 부채질해 키워놓지 불만

yeol-jeong-man bu-chae-jil-hae ki-wo-not-ji bul-man

스스로 선을 긋게 만드는 사회 속에

seu-seu-ro seon-eul geus-ge man-deu-neun sa-hoe sok-e

출구는 없고 땀은 온몸에 남아도네

chul-gu-neun eop-go ttam-eun on-mom-e nam-a-do-ne

시기와 질투, 인정 못 하는 실수

si-gi-wa jil-tu, in-jeong mos ha-neun sil-su

탓만 돌리고 편 갈라 비수를 꽂는 모습만 익숙

tas-man dol-ri-go pyeon gal-ra bi-su-reul kkot-neun mo-seup-man ik-suk

여는 창마다 부정적인 얘기

yeo-neun chang-ma-da bu-jeong-jeok-in yae-gi

Verse 5

눈 감는 게 당연해

nun gam-neun ge dang-yeon-hae

두려워서겠지

du-ryeo-wo-seo-gess-ji

팔짱 낄 틈도 없이 두 손 들게 해
