Lyrics & Translation

[Korean]

[English]

쫓다 보면 닿을 것만 같았어 의심 따윈 해본 적도 없었어

It felt like I could reach it if I chased it - I never even doubted it

상상한 널 안았지만 두 손 꽉 널 잡았지만

I held the you I imagined - I held you tightly with both hands

품속엔 공허함만 남은 채 헤매이다

Only emptiness remained in my arms - Wandering around

결국 깨닫게 됐어 널 놓아야만 한다는 걸

In the end, I realized - That I have to let you go

(Oh) 스스로 속여가며 (Oh) 버텨낸 꿈을 깬 순간

(Oh) Deceiving myself - The moment I broke the dream I endured

(Oh) 쏟아져 내리는 빛이 느껴져

(Oh) I can feel the light pouring down

I wanna be myself (I don’t care) 아직 낯설다 해도 (Just don’t care)

I wanna be myself (I don’t care) - Even if it still feels unfamiliar (Just don’t care)

널 벗어난 순간 내가 보여 모든 게 다, 눈앞이 다

The moment I broke free from you, I can see - Everything, all of it, right in front of me

이제는 알겠어 (Now I know) 내게 필요했던 건 나란 걸

Now I understand (Now I know) - What I needed was myself

내 두 발이 가는 대로 걸어가 I feel the light, I feel the light

I walk wherever my two feet take me - I feel the light, I feel the light

한결같이 너를 향해 달려가다 깨달은 건

Consistently towards you - What I realized while running

내 모든 건 널 향해 있었어 너에게 가까이 갈수록

Everything was directed towards you - The closer I got to you

점점 더 날 잃어갔어

I gradually lost myself

저기 나무 밑에 떨어진 낙엽처럼 결국 눈 속에 묻혀 짓밟힌다 해도

Like the fallen leaves under that tree - Even if I end up buried in the snow and trampled

이젠 너를 넘어서 봄을 찾아 떠나가

Now I’ll go beyond you and seek spring

남겨진 감정은 부는 바람에 휘날려

The emotions left behind are blown by the wind

(Oh) 꿈속에 날 가뒀던 (Oh) 터널을 벗어난 순간

(Oh) The moment I escaped the tunnel - That trapped me in a dream

(Oh) 쏟아져 내리는 빛이 느껴져

(Oh) I can feel the light pouring down

I wanna be myself (I don’t care) 아직 낯설다 해도 (Just don’t care)

I wanna be myself (I don’t care) - Even if it still feels unfamiliar (Just don’t care)

널 벗어난 순간 내가 보여 모든 게 다, 눈앞이 다

The moment I broke free from you, I can see - Everything, all of it, right in front of me

이제는 알겠어 (Now I know) 내게 필요했던 건 나란 걸

Now I understand (Now I know) - What I needed was myself

내 두 발이 가는 대로 걸어가 I feel the light, I feel the light

I walk wherever my two feet take me - I feel the light, I feel the light

널 놓는다는 게 두려웠었지만 놓을 수밖에 없어 난

I was afraid of letting you go - But I have no choice but to let go

It’s all good now

It’s all good now

I wanna be myself (I don’t care) 아직 낯설다 해도 (Just don’t care)

I wanna be myself (I don’t care) - Even if it still feels unfamiliar (Just don’t care)

너를 벗어나고서야 보여 모든 게, 다 눈앞이 다

Only after breaking free from you can I see - Everything, all of it, right in front of me
