Lyrics & Translation

[Korean]

[English]

너를 떠나야 하는 건

The reason I have to leave you

그 사람이 아닌 바로 나란 걸 알게 된 그날부터

From the day I realized it wasn't them, but me

백야는 계속되었고

The white night continued

온몸이 불덩이처럼 뜨거워지는 게 무서웠어

I was afraid of my whole body becoming burning hot

I cannot handle this anymore, 혼돈 속에 갇혀 선 채로

I cannot handle this anymore, standing trapped in chaos

뒷걸음질을 하다가도, 내 시선은 너에게로

Even as I step back, my gaze goes to you

보이면 안 되는 것이 보여

I see what shouldn't be seen

널 원할수록 난 괴물이 될 것 같아

The more I want you, the more I feel like I'll become a monster

I don't wanna be a monster, 나를 완전히 끊어내줘

I don't wanna be a monster, completely cut me off

내가 죽을 것 같아도, 넌 모른 척 지나쳐줘

Even if I feel like I'm dying, just pretend you don't see me and pass by

나를 구원하려 한다면

If you're going to try and save me

내가 절망을 더 느끼게 놓아줘, 안녕

Let me feel more despair, goodbye

...

...

유령이 되어 떠도는

Wandering around as a ghost

고백의 문장은 여전히 나를 옥죄어 힘들게 해

The words of confession still torment and exhaust me

꿈을 꾸듯 살다가도

Even when I live as if in a dream

너의 천사 같은 미소가 내게 알려줘, "여긴 지옥이야"

Your angelic smile tells me, "This is hell"

I'm in a hell (hell), so foolish

I'm in a hell (hell), so foolish

더 가면 갈수록 풀리지 않는 걸 (I know)

The further I go, the more tangled it becomes (I know)

혹여나 조그마한 가능성을 보고선, 난 또 꿈을 꿔

Perhaps seeing a tiny possibility, I dream again

이대론 안돼, 난 괴물이 될 것 같아, whoo

It can't be like this, I think I'll become a monster, whoo

I don't wanna be a monster, 나를 완전히 끊어내줘

I don't wanna be a monster, completely cut me off

내가 죽을 것 같아도, 넌 모른 척 지나쳐줘

Even if I feel like I'm dying, just pretend you don't see me and pass by

나를 구원하려 한다면

If you're going to try and save me

내가 절망을 더 느끼게 놓아줘, 그다음엔

Let me feel more despair, and then

기억이 왜곡되어 꾸며질 때까지

Until the memories are distorted and fabricated

넌 나를 떠올리지 말길

I hope you won't think of me

난 밤 하늘 저편, 궤도를 비껴간

I'm just a comet, off course, beyond the night sky

혜성일 뿐이야

Just a comet

마음의 호수 위 파문은

The ripples on the lake of my heart

점점 번져 가더니 나를 일렁이게 해

Spread more and more, making me sway

사랑은 이렇게 내게 가혹한

Love has become such a cruel

재앙이 됐어

Disaster for me

너를 탐한 죄로 나 저주에 빠진다면

If I fall into a curse for the sin of coveting you

한 찰나라도 좋으니 널 가지고 싶었는데

Even for a fleeting moment, I wanted to have you

환상이 될 수 없는 우리

We who can't become a fantasy

이어갈 수 없는 이야기 마침내, 안녕

A story that can't be continued, finally, goodbye

...
