Lyrics, Cara Baca & English Translation
I couldn't save us in time
I don't do good by myself
I should have you by my side
내 안에 깊게 커져간 틈새
nae an-e gip-ge keo-jyeo-gan teum-sae
싸늘한 밤
ssa-neul-han bam
한순간 날 휘몰아친 고요한 소란
han-sun-gan nal hwi-mol-a-chin go-yo-han so-ran
눈을 감고 breathe
nun-eul gam-go breathe
Running all the way
All the way to your mind
Something wakes me up
Something's in the water
Staring me down
(Staring me down)
나를 닮은 eyes
na-reul dal-eun eyes
내게 말을 걸어
nae-ge mal-eul geol-eo
"Take me in"
Oh
Bad thoughts that mirror myself
Wake me up outside this hell
(Hell)
어긋난 숨소리
eo-geus-nan sum-so-ri
헤어날 수 없는 nightmare
he-eo-nal su eop-neun nightmare
어서 눈떠야 해
eo-seo nun-tteo-ya hae
왜 아직 여기에 나 홀로 멈춘 채
wae a-jik yeo-gi-e na hol-ro meom-chun chae
뭘 찾아 헤매는 건지
mwol chat-a he-mae-neun geon-ji
뒤엉킨 물살에 아득히 잠겨
dwi-eong-kin mul-sal-e a-deuk-hi jam-gyeo
'Cause
Something wakes me up
Something's in the water
Staring me down
(Staring me down)
나를 닮은 eyes
na-reul dal-eun eyes
내게 말을 걸어
nae-ge mal-eul geol-eo
"Take me in"
Ohh
Ohhh
