[KILLING ME M/V] 00:02

Your presence is still here, killing me again 00:06

I tried to show you that I can turn my back on you, but it's killing me 00:14

Why am I so lonely 00:19

I thought I was good with breakups 00:21

But even the smallest habits I shared with you is not so easy to forget 00:25

Foolishly I can't move on 00:29

I'm going through something like regretting the past 00:30

Although you are fine without me, I am half dead inside 00:32

I never knew about how hard a breakup would be. 00:37

I was selfish to look away from your tears 00:44

Your presence is still here, killing me again 00:51

I tried to show you that I can turn my back on you, but it's killing me 00:59

Why am I so lonely 01:04

It’s killing me 01:06

It’s killing me 01:21

Having the sense of freedom and being able to meet new people 01:24

But it eventually brings a dispirited heart. 01:26

On a pitch-black night, I am all alone again 01:28

This is not what I wanted Her existence was a part of my life 01:29

We were inseparable but once we did, everything fell apart 01:33

I'm dying because I didn’t prepare myself for this in advance 01:36

I never knew about how hard a breakup would be. 01:39

I was selfish to look away from your tears 01:46

Your presence is still here, killing me again 01:53

I tried to show you that I can turn my back on you, but it's killing me 02:01

Why am I so lonely 02:06

It’s killing me 02:08

What was I to meet her from the start 02:24

What was I to choose to break up with her 02:31

I guess I loved her so bad 02:39

I guess the fire that was gone is beginning to burn again 02:42

Is it the broken heart longing for her 02:46

Or my selfish loneliness 02:50

It’s killing me 02:53

I guess I loved her so bad 02:54

I guess the fire that was gone is beginning to burn again 02:57

Is it a heart broken longing for her 03:01

Or a selfish loneliness 03:05

Your presence is still here, killing me again 03:08

[KILLING ME M/V]

Your presence is still here, killing me again

I tried to show you that I can turn my back on you, but it's killing me

Why am I so lonely

I thought I was good with breakups

But even the smallest habits I shared with you is not so easy to forget

Foolishly I can't move on

I'm going through something like regretting the past

Although you are fine without me, I am half dead inside

I never knew about how hard a breakup would be.

I was selfish to look away from your tears

Your presence is still here, killing me again

I tried to show you that I can turn my back on you, but it's killing me

Why am I so lonely

It’s killing me

Having the sense of freedom and being able to meet new people

But it eventually brings a dispirited heart.

On a pitch-black night, I am all alone again

This is not what I wanted Her existence was a part of my life

We were inseparable but once we did, everything fell apart

I'm dying because I didn’t prepare myself for this in advance

I never knew about how hard a breakup would be.

I was selfish to look away from your tears

Your presence is still here, killing me again

I tried to show you that I can turn my back on you, but it's killing me

Why am I so lonely

It’s killing me

What was I to meet her from the start

What was I to choose to break up with her

I guess I loved her so bad

I guess the fire that was gone is beginning to burn again

Is it the broken heart longing for her

Or my selfish loneliness

It’s killing me

I guess I loved her so bad

I guess the fire that was gone is beginning to burn again

Is it a heart broken longing for her

Or a selfish loneliness

Your presence is still here, killing me again
