[English]

First time, yeah

What made me move, uh

Just what are you? Yeah

You're a ten, right? Ooh, baby

A-B-C, think you got me

Your obvious tricks won't work on me, uh

POV, uh, I see it, uh

For now, I'll just pretend not to know

The perfect trigger, I'll show you everything you want

Make you hiccup (yeah), after I take your breath away

Take a step, uh-uh, as it grows longer

The shadow (yeah)

Wanna play with me?

Come and take my hand, there's no need to be afraid

All night, to a place where no one else is

Just you and me

Just you and I, just like this

As I don't wanna take it

I'll take everything from you until you lose your mind

You're the victim for the night

Yeah

In my, in my plan

Ooh, woah, yeah

Yeah

Time is ticking, uh (time is ticking, uh)

I've drawn it out enough, that should do it

Uh, I just take it, don't chase, until I say so (yuh)

I want to watch you a little longer, I won't make a sound

A single whisper will shake your heart

Make you flicker (oh), a silhouette that has vanished

Watch your step, boy

Everything will crumble in an instant

Wanna play with me?

Come and take my hand, there's no need to be afraid

All night, to a place where no one else is

Just you and me

'Cause you and I, just like this

As I don't wanna take it, until you lose your mind

I'll take everything from you

You're the victim for the night

Don't bother trying anymore, though you'll blame me

Boy, you just came too far

Now I got you under my control (my control)

It's over, just as planned, too late (too late)

Easy boy, sit back, easy boy, boy, boy

Wanna stay with me? (stay with me)

When I call you mine, there's no turning back

Alright, between you and me (baby, I, oh)

Passing through the hidden night

All day and night together (together)

As I don't wanna take it

I'll enchant your very soul so you can't even move

You're the victim for the night (for the night)

Easy boy, sit back, easy boy, boy, boy (easy boy)

In my, in my (ooh)

Easy boy, sit back, easy boy, boy, boy

In my plan

...

안 통해 뻔한 속임수 따윈, uh

POV, uh, I see it, uh

아직은 모른척해 난

완벽한 trigger, I'll show you everything you want

Make you hiccup (yeah), 너의 그 숨을 뺏은 다음

Take a step, uh-uh, 점점 길어진

The shadow (yeah)

Wanna play with me?

Come and take my hand, 겁낼 필욘 없잖아

All night 아무도 없는

정신 못 차리게 네 모든 걸 다 가져갈게

Time is ticking, uh (time is ticking, uh)

적당히 끌었음 그걸로 됐지

Uh, I just take it, don't chase, 내가 원할 때까진 (yuh)

좀 더 지켜볼래, I won't make a sound

한 숨의 whisper, 네 맘을 뒤흔들어 놔

Make you flicker (oh), 사라져 버린 silhouette

Watch your step, boy

순식간에 다 무너질 거야

Wanna play with me?

Come and take my hand, 겁낼 필욘 없잖아

When I call you mine, 돌이킬 수 없잖아

Alright, 너와 나 사이 (baby, I, oh)

가려진 밤을 지나

All day and night together (together)

As I don't wanna take it

꼼짝도 못 하게 영혼까지 홀려버릴게
