[Verse 1 ]
I'm a liar
가족들에게 괜찮다 말해
Gajokdeurege gwaenchanta malhae
Telling the family I'm okay
죽을 것 같은데 , eh
Jugeul geot gateunde, eh
I think I'm going to die, eh
Set me on fire
내가 누군지 기억이 안 나
Naega nugunji gieogi an na
I can't remember who I am
어린애였는데 , eh-eh
Eorinaeyeonneunde, eh-eh
I was a child, eh-eh
[pre-chorus]
텅 빈 방 안 소년은 외로워
Teong bin bang an sonyeoneun oerowo
The boy in the empty room is lonely
멀리 도망가고 싶어
Meolli domanggago sipeo
I want to run away
이 구렁텅이에서 날 꺼내 줘
I gureongteongieseo nal kkeonae jwo
Get me out of this abyss
누가 안아줬음 싶어
Nuga anajwosseum sipeo
I want someone to hug me
[chorus]
Somebody help me
내가 나일 수 있게 도와줘 , yeah
Naega nail su itge dowajwo, yeah
Help me be me, yeah
Somebody help me
웃고 있는 내 가면 벗겨줘 , yeah
Utgo inneun nae gamyeon beotgyeojwo, yeah
Take off my smiling mask, yeah
[post chorus]
난 행복하지 않아 난 행복하지 않아
Nan haengbokaji ana nan haengbokaji ana
I'm not happy I'm not happy
억지 미소 짓지만 난 행복하지 않아
Eokji miso jitjiman nan haengbokaji ana
Forced to smile but I'm not happy
난 살고 싶지 않아 난 살고 싶지 않아
Nan salgo sipji ana nan salgo sipji ana
I don't wanna live I don't wanna live
죽고 싶진 않지만 난 살고 싶지 않아
Jukgo sipjin anchiman nan salgo sipji ana
I don't want to die but I don't want to live
[verse 2 ]
Have you ever feeling like 숨만 쉬는 기분
Have you ever feeling like summan swineun gibun
Have you ever feel like you’re just breathing
하루 끝에 잠이 들 때쯤에야 놓지 한시름
Haru kkeute jami deul ttaejjeumeya nochi hansireum
That great anxiety when you’re about to fall asleep at the end of the day
별일 없냐는 질문 별일 없다고 대답
Byeoril eomnyaneun jilmun byeoril eopdago daedap
You get questions like ‘is everything okay’ and you answer ‘I’m fine’
아무 일도 없는데 왜 울적할까 그건 의문
Amu ildo eomneunde wae uljeokalkka geugeon uimun
That doubt when nothing ’s happening but why are you depressed
오늘도 감정노동 해
Oneuldo gamjeongnodong hae
It’s again an emotional labour today
내 맘대로 되는 일이 하나 없네
Nae mamdaero doeneun iri hana eomne
Nothing is going my way
속이 텅 빈 껍데기 작은 불씨에도 타들어 가는
Sogi teong bin kkeopdegi jageun bulssiedo tadeureo ganeun
An empty shell inside me It’s burning in embers
나는 쉽게 부서지는 재 같아
Naneun swipge buseojineun jae gata
and I’m like the ash that breaks easily
[pre-chorus]
텅 빈 방 안 소년은 외로워
Teong bin bang an sonyeoneun oerowo
The boy in the empty room is lonely
멀리 도망가고 싶어
Meolli domanggago sipeo
I want to run away
이 구렁텅이에서 날 꺼내 줘
I gureongteongieseo nal kkeonae jwo
Get me out of this abyss
누가 안아줬음 싶어
Nuga anajwosseum sipeo
I want someone to hug me
[chorus]
Somebody help me
내가 나일 수 있게 도와줘 , yeah
Naega nail su itge dowajwo, yeah
Help me be me, yeah
Somebody help me
웃고 있는 내 가면 벗겨줘 , yeah
Utgo inneun nae gamyeon beotgyeojwo, yeah
