[English]

I've been coughing since this morning

I wonder if I'll start feeling better

Today is just like any other day

Except for one thing

The fact that you're not by my side

This dry air

Is just like my heart

It's parched

It has cracked open

My heart is crumbling

It's turned to dust

Scattering away

Will you take me away?

When the season passes

Please give me a new love

I bite my lips until they bleed

My anxious heart is starting to ache (this full heart)

Emptying and filling it as I please (how can)

Nothing goes the way I want

I'd rather just let it all blow away

This dry room

Is just like my heart

It's parched

It has cracked open

My heart is crumbling

It's turned to dust

Scattering away

Will you take me away?

When the season passes

Please give me a new love

The gaps that have opened up

Felt exactly like my situation

If I'm sick for a few more days

I'll probably be okay

It's parched

It has cracked open

My heart is crumbling

It's turned to dust

Scattering away

Will you take me away?

When the season passes

Please give me a new love

...

[Korean]

아침부터 기침이 나네

내 기분은 좀 나아지려나

다를 것 없는 오늘 하루야

딱 한 가지

내 옆에 네가 없단 말이야

건조한 이 공기가

내 마음과 같아

푸석이다

갈라져 버렸다

바스락거리는 마음

가루가 됐다

흩날리다

날 데려가 줄래

계절이 가면

새 사랑을 내게 주세요

입술을 뜯다 피가 나네

초조한 마음에 아프려 하네 (찼던 맘을)

비우고 채워 맘대로 (어쩜)

모든 건 안 돼 뜻대로

차라리 날려 보내려 해요

건조한 이 방 안도

내 마음과 같아

푸석이다

갈라져 버렸다

바스락거리는 마음

가루가 됐다

흩날리다

날 데려가 줄래

계절이 가면

새 사랑을 내게 주세요

벌어진 틈새 사이가

꼭 나의 처지 같았어

며칠 아프다 보면

괜찮겠지

푸석이다

갈라져 버렸다

바스락거리는 마음

가루가 됐다

흩날리다

날 데려가 줄래

계절이 가면

새 사랑을 내게 주세요
