Lyrics, Romanization & English Translation

I've been doing this my whole life, stuck inside my head, "Got no time"

I just wanna reach that prime time, oh, whoa-oh

Don't wanna see another deadline, there's no day and night, yeah

I can feel my body getting light

Yeah, I just don't know what to say, 'cause to this day, I'm still astray

Yeah, I just don't think I can make it, endless rain, I'm still in pain

I know I wanna feel the rays of sunlight, fill my empty space

Yeah, I just don't know what to say, I lost my way, way, way, way

I feel like I'm a ghost, I'm out of my mind

I don't know why I'm lost in space and time

I feel like I'm a ghost, I'll say that I'm fine, I'm fine

I'm done

남들은 내가 떴대, 지금 난 그저 붕 떠 있는데

nam-deul-eun nae-ga tteoss-dae, ji-geum nan geu-jeo bung tteo iss-neun-de

여태껏 겪은 난류와는 차원이 다른 버뮤다 삼각지대

yeo-tae-kkeos gyeok-eun nan-ryu-wa-neun cha-won-i da-reun beo-myu-da sam-gak-ji-dae

나 자신을 위함과 해함이 공존케 하는 그들의 기대

na ja-sin-eul wi-ham-gwa hae-ham-i gong-jon-ke ha-neun geu-deul-ui gi-dae

나, 너 그 누구도 만족 못한다면, 이제 어디 기대

na, neo geu nu-gu-do man-jok mos-han-da-myeon, i-je eo-di gi-dae

I ain't got no energy, I'm feeling dead inside

Too much of this, too much of that, I'm overloaded this time

Yeah, I just don't know what to say, 'cause to this day, I'm still astray

Yeah, I just don't think I can make it, endless rain, I'm still in pain

I know I wanna feel the rays of sunlight, fill my empty space

Yeah, I just don't know what to say, I lost my way, way, way, way

I feel like I'm a ghost, I'm out of my mind

I don't know why I'm lost in space and time

I feel like I'm a ghost, I'll say that I'm fine, I'm fine

I'm done

Rendezvous with the déjà vu

Repeated blues, yeah, the world's so cruel

Howling, "Boo" when the time is due

I don't know what to say, just pray that I'm okay

(I feel like I'm a ghost, I'm out of my mind)

(I don't know why I'm lost in space and time)

(I feel like I'm a ghost, I'll say that I'm fine, I'm fine)

Yeah, I just don't know what to say, 'cause to this day, I'm still astray

Yeah, I just don't think I can make it, endless rain, I'm still in pain

I know I wanna feel the rays of sunlight, fill my empty space

Yeah, I just don't know what to say, I lost my way
