[Verse 1: RM]
[Verse 1: RM]
이별은 내게 티어
Goodbyes are, for me, a tear
나도 모르게 내 눈가 위에 피어
Without even knowing, it blooms around my eyes
채 내뱉지 못한 얘기들이 흐르고
The words that I could not bring myself to say flow down
미련이 나의 얼굴 위를 기어
And lingering regret crawls over my face
내게 넌 한때는 나의 dear
To me, you were once my dear
하지만 이젠 쓰기만 한 beer
But now you're merely a bitter beer
때늦은 자기혐오로 얼룩진 심장은
My heart that's stained with belated self-loathing
스치는 저 바람에도 비어
Becomes empty even with the passing breeze
이별은 거짓뿐이던 나의 연극 끝에
At the end of my play full of lies, came this farewell
오고야 말았던 나의 댓가
The price I inevitably had to pay
누군가 시간을 되돌려준다면
If someone said they would turn back time for me
어쩜 내가 좀 더 솔직할 수 있었을까
Would I have been able to be a bit more honest?
나만 아는 나의 그 맨얼굴도
The bare face that only I know
추하고 초라한 내 안의 오랜 벗들도
And the ugly, pathetic old friends inside me
나를 보던 그 미소로 여전히 넌 나를
Would you still be able to love me again like before
그렇게 또 사랑해줄 수 있었을까
With that smile with which you used look at me
영원 영원 같은 소리 좀 그만해
Stop talking about ''forever, forever''
어차피 원래 끝은 있는 거잖아
After all, the end originally exists
시작이 있다면, I don't wanna listen to that
If there's a start, I don't wanna listen to that
너무 맞는 소리 혹은 너무 많은 위로, I don't wanna listen to that
Words that are too correct or too much consolation
그냥 너무 무서웠어
I don't wanna listen to that
어쩜 내가 너를 사랑했던 적이 아예 없는 것 같아서
I was just too afraid
늦었지만 넌 진실했다고 너만 나를 사랑했다고 더
Because it seemed like perhaps I had never loved you at all
Too late, but you said it was all true, only you really loved me
[Refrain: RM]
[Refrain: RM]
You're my tear, you're my you're my tear (Yeah)
You're my tear, you're my you're my tear (Yeah)
You're my tear, you're my you're my tear (Yeah)
You're my tear, you're my you're my tear (Yeah)
You're my tear, you're my you're my tear (Yeah)
You're my tear, you're my you're my tear (Yeah)
What more can I say? You're my tear
What more can I say? You're my tear
[Chorus: j-hope, SUGA]
[Chorus: j-hope, SUGA]
같은 곳을 향해 걸었었는데 (Ayy, ayy)
We walked towards the same place (Ayy, ayy)
이곳이 우리의 마지막이 돼
But this place became our end
영원을 말하던 우리였는데 (Ayy, ayy)
Although we used to talk about forever (Ayy, ayy)
가차없이 서로를 부수네
Now we break each other without mercy
같은 꿈을 꿨다 생각했는데 (Ayy, ayy)
Although we thought that we dreamed the same dream (Ayy, ayy)
그 꿈은 비로소 꿈이 되었네
That dream has finally become a dream
심장이 찢겨져 차라리 불 태워줘
My heart is torn, please burn it instead
고통과 미련 그 무엇도 남지 않게끔
So that pain and regret, none of that would be left
[Refrain: RM, SUGA, j-hope]
[Refrain: RM, SUGA, j-hope]
(Oh) You're my tear, you're my you're my tear
(Oh) You're my tear, you're my, you're my tear
(Ae-yeah) You're my tear, you're my you're my tear
(Ae-yeah) You're my tear, you're my, you're my tear
(Ae-yeah) You're my fear, you're my you're my fear
(Ae-yeah) You're my fear, you're my, you're my fear
(Ae-yeah) What more can I say? You're my…
(Ae-yeah) What more can I say? You're my…

[Verse 2: SUGA]
Yeah, 이별은 내게 T.E.A.R 눈물 따위는 사치니까
Yeah, goodbyes are T.E.A.R because things like tears are a luxury
아름다운 이별 따위는 없을테니 이제 시작해줘
There's no such thing as beautiful goodbyes, so just begin now
Ooh, take it easy 천천히 심장을 도려줘
Ooh, take it easy, slowly carve out my heart
그래그래 조각이 나버린 파편 위를 즈려밟아줘
That's right, that's right, gently step on the shards that have shattered
미련, 미련 그딴 게 더는 남지 않게
So that regret, regret, such a thing will no longer be left
갈기갈기 찢어발겨버린 내 심장을 싹 불태워줘
Please burn up my heart that was torn into shreds
옳지 그래 거기야 뭘 망설이니
That's right, right there, what are you hesitating for?
니가 원하던 그 결말이니
This is the ending you were wishing for
망설임 없이 어서 죽여주길
So go ahead and kill me without hesitation
(Ooh) Ayy, yeah, yeah, burn it
(Ooh) Ayy, yeah, yeah, burn it
(Ooh) Yeah, yeah, yeah, burn it
(Ooh) Yeah, yeah, yeah, burn it
(Ooh) Yeah, yeah, yeah, burn it
(Ooh) Yeah, yeah, yeah, burn it
타버린 재마저 남지 않게
So that not even ashes remain, ah
[Pre-Chorus: SUGA]
[Pre-Chorus: SUGA]
이게 진짜 너고 이게 진짜 나야
This is the real you, and this is the real me
이젠 끝을 봤고 원망도 안 남아
Now we've seen the end and not even resentment is left
달던 꿈은 깼고 나는 눈을 감아
I've woken up from the sweet dream and I close my eyes
이게 진짜 너고 이게 진짜 나야
This is the real you, and this is the real me

[Bridge: SUGA]
[Bridge: SUGA]
어떤 말을 해야 할지
We know what we have to say
우리는 알고 있지
We both know it
정답은 정해 있는데
The answer is already decided
늘 대답은 어렵지
But the words are always hard to say
[Verse 3: j-hope]
[Verse 3: j-hope]
왜 흘리는지 왜 찢어버리는지
Why are we crying? Why are we tearing this apart?
소용없어 내게는 이별은 내겐 그 순간들뿐 (Flashback)
It's useless, to me goodbye to me is only those moments (Flashback)
네 입에서 말을 하는 순간
The moment you said those words
우리의 초점이 불규칙해지는 순간
Our focus became unstable
모든 게 위험한 순간에
At the moment where everything is dangerous
두 글자가 준 우리의 끝
Our end, that two letters handed to us
안 울 걸 안 찢을 걸
I shouldn't cry, I shouldn't tear this up
그런 말은 못 한다고 앞으로 나도
But even I won't be able to say that anymore
이별 불치병
Separation is an incurable disease
넌 내 시작과 끝 that is all
You were my beginning and my end, that is all
나의 만남과 나의 이별
My meeting and my farewell
전부였어 앞으로 가 fear
You were everything, now step forward, fear
반복될 거야 너로 인한 tear, tear
It will be repeated, caused by you, tear, tear
