[English]

I'm sinking in deep

Into your shining light

Inside your dark eyes

So fragile

Is my gaze

Before I know it

I'm half broken

But I have to try

You always try for me

I'm just your shoulder

to cry on

Deeper scars

Memories that cut through

Baby, I don't mind

As long as you're here

It's so fine

Even if everything falls apart, it’s okay

Be a little selfish, baby

If you want, go ahead

Hurt me

'Cause you're the only one

who's gonna give me

what I need

I'm better, you'll see

Filling you up every day, baby

Come to me anytime, yeah

Your existence alone

Is my only salvation

1, 2, 3

You can count on me

1, 2, 3

You can count on me

1, 2, 3

I got all you need

'Cause you're the only one

who's gonna give me

what I need

Wounds that haven’t even healed

Are open again

That's okay

Because they’re all

Traces of you

So thank you

Broken down

Shattered

Sharp and

Fragmented heart

No matter how much I hold it

Even if it stabs me

I will hold you tight

Frozen time

The same tragedy repeats

Baby, I don’t mind

As long as I’m with you

It's so fine

Even if everything falls apart, it’s okay

Be a little selfish, baby

If you want, go ahead

Hurt me

'Cause you're the only one

who's gonna give me

what I need

I'm better, you'll see

Filling you up every day, baby

Come to me anytime, yeah

Your existence alone

Is my only salvation

1, 2, 3

You can count on me

1, 2, 3

You can count on me

1, 2, 3

I got all you need

'Cause you're the only one

who's gonna give me

what I need

You can count on me

You can count on me

Only to me

You alone

You can count on me

You can count on me

All that I have

Even if I lose it

I’m back to where I started again

Even if everything falls apart, it’s okay

Be a little selfish, baby

If you want, go ahead

Hurt me

'Cause you're the only one

who's gonna give me

what I need

I'm better, you'll see

Filling you completely, baby

Lean on me anytime, yeah

Your existence alone

Is my only salvation

반쯤 고장 나 있어

But I have to try

넌 날 매번 Try

I'm just your shoulder
