[English]

날 비춘 black light 무서운 fiction

날 향한 bad news 넘쳐진 눈물

돌아가는 낡은 쳇바퀴가

내 모습을 대신해 멈춰

I just wanna leave tonight 날 가둔 모든 것들이

죽어가는 내 심장을 완전히 찢어 놓으려 해, yeah

나는 꼭 찾아야만 해 I will find out

지켜야 해 믿어야 해 모든 걸 이겨내야 해, yeah

...

멀어진 my dream 다가온 reality

돌아가는 낡은 쳇바퀴가

내 모습을 대신해 멈춰

I just wanna leave tonight 날 가둔 모든 것들이

죽어가는 내 심장을 완전히 찢어 놓으려 해, yeah

나는 꼭 찾아야만 해 I will find out

지켜야 해 믿어야 해 모든 걸 이겨내야 해, yeah

나를 찾고 싶어

I have to find, I have to breathe right now

제발 나를 찾고 싶어

I have to find, I have to breathe right now

I just wanna leave tonight

I just wanna leave tonight

I just wanna leave tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, oh yeah

I just wanna leave tonight, yeah
