Noir
왜 늘 엇갈리는 거야
wae neul eos-gal-ri-neun geo-ya
걸음은 한 발짝 느려
geol-eum-eun han bal-jjak neu-ryeo
그새 스쳐 지나가 그제서야 돌아봐
geu-sae seu-chyeo ji-na-ga geu-je-seo-ya dol-a-bwa
뻔하디 뻔하잖아
ppeon-ha-di ppeon-ha-jan-a
I've already seen this before
I feel so high, 흐릿해져, 하나, 둘, 셋
I feel so high, heu-ris-hae-jyeo, ha-na, dul, ses
Now I'm blind, I don't know why
보지 않아도 알잖아 bad ending
bo-ji an-a-do al-jan-a bad ending
We are in noir
이제 없어 너와
i-je eop-eo neo-wa
We are in noir
이제 그만 놔
i-je geu-man nwa

You know what, you're talking too much
봤잖아 그러다, 제일 먼저 피 보는 클리셰
bwass-jan-a geu-reo-da, je-il meon-jeo pi bo-neun keul-ri-sye
하긴 이도 저도 뭐도 아닐 바에

차라리 그게 더 나아 (blah, blah, bullsh-)
