Harujjeumeun nopi tteugo sip-eo

Ttakhi baladeon saegkkal-eun eobs-eo
Amu teum-ena kkyeo iss-eumyeon geuman-iya

I want to fly high for a day
Inflate my deflated body
I don’t have any particular color in mind
I’ll just fit into any crack
I’ve grown as much as I can
The only thing inside me is a secretly swallowed sigh
How much of me will disappear tomorrow?
Just roughly pass by

Boom
As if flying in the sky
Being blown away by the wind
You mistakenly missed
Or did you purposely let go
No need to answer

Gakkeum sege angyeo bogo sip-eo

Sometimes I want to hold on tightly
Blow me up a bit in advance
This world, filled with sharp edges
Someone must wish for an immediate downfall
After the loud party ends
I’ll be left behind in pieces
Backward, my tears rise
Round and round, I’ll go back

Boom
As if flying in the sky
Being blown away by the wind
You mistakenly missed
Or did you purposely let go
No need to answer
