Lyrics, Romanization & English Translation

저기 수근거리는

jeo-gi su-geun-geo-ri-neun

사람들의 고민거리는 뭘까

sa-ram-deul-ui go-min-geo-ri-neun mwol-kka

지금 날 보고 웃는 건지

ji-geum nal bo-go us-neun geon-ji

아니면 나를 안 보는 건지

a-ni-myeon na-reul an bo-neun geon-ji

언제부턴가

eon-je-bu-teon-ga

주위에 남는 친구가 많아

ju-wi-e nam-neun chin-gu-ga man-a

어깨에 슬쩍 손을 올리는

eo-kkae-e seul-jjeok son-eul ol-ri-neun

너희들은 도대체 누구야

neo-hui-deul-eun do-dae-che nu-gu-ya

Then you gotta stay the same

I know you're trying to sit on me

'Cause I'm really good at this

To downtown I deserve to go

There's no reason not to go

For what I said so long ago

That's not a fault of yours

I wanna wanna be like this

Why always try to leave me alone

I keep my head up

And keep my mouth shut

Why always need to wait for so long

I keep my way

Do things my own way

그냥 뭐랄까

geu-nyang mwo-ral-kka

나는 늘 항상 어려웠었어

na-neun neul hang-sang eo-ryeo-woss-eoss-eo

나도 나를 잘 모르는데

na-do na-reul jal mo-reu-neun-de

어떻게 날 그리도 잘 알까

eo-tteot-ge nal geu-ri-do jal al-kka

다시 또 너 몰래

da-si tto neo mol-rae

스쳐서 쉽게 버려진 데도

seu-chyeo-seo swip-ge beo-ryeo-jin de-do

거꾸로 웃음을 지어줄게

geo-kku-ro us-eum-eul ji-eo-jul-ge

너희들 품엔 내가 있잖아

neo-hui-deul pum-en nae-ga iss-jan-a

Then you gotta stay the same

I know you're trying to sit on me

'Cause I'm really good at this

To downtown I deserve to go

There's no reason not to go

For what I said so long ago

That's not a fault of yours

I wanna wanna be like this

Why always try to leave me alone

I keep my head up and keep my mouth shut

Why always need to wait for so long

I keep my way

Do things my own way
