[Verse 1: V]
[Verse 1: V]
외로움이 가득히
In this garden
피어있는 이 garden
Filled with loneliness
가시투성이
Full of thorns
이 모래성에 난 날 매었어
I chained myself to this castle of sand
[Verse 2: Jung Kook]
[Verse 2: Jung Kook]
너의 이름은 뭔지
What is your name
갈 곳이 있긴 한지
Do you have somewhere to go
Oh could you tell me?
Oh could you tell me?
이 정원에 숨어든 널 봤어
I saw you sneaking into this garden
[Pre-Chorus: Jin]
[Pre-Chorus: Jin]
And I know
And I know
너의 온긴 모두 다 진짜란 걸
That every warmth of yours is real
푸른 꽃을 꺾는 손
The hand picking the blue flower
잡고 싶지만
I want to hold it, but
[Chorus: Jimin]
[Chorus: Jimin]
내 운명인 걸
It must be my fate
Don't smile to me
Don't smile to me
Light on me
Light on me
너에게 다가설 수 없으니까
Because I can't come closer to you
내겐 불러줄 이름이 없어
I have no name to call out to you
[Post-Chorus: Jung Kook]
[Post-Chorus: Jung Kook]
You know that I can't
You know that I can't
Show you me
Show you me
Give you me
Give you me
초라한 모습 보여줄 순 없어
I can't show you my shabby side
또 가면을 쓰고 널 만나러 가
So I put my mask back on and go to meet you
But I still want you
But I still want you
[Verse 3: Jin]
[Verse 3: Jin]
외로움의 정원에 핀
A flower that resembles you
너를 닮은 꽃
Blooming in the garden of loneliness
주고 싶었지
I wanted to give it to you
바보 같은 가면을 벗고서
After taking off this foolish mask
[Pre-Chorus: Jimin]
[Pre-Chorus: Jimin]
But I know
But I know
영원히 그럴 수는 없는 걸
That can never last forever
숨어야만 하는 걸
I have to keep hiding
추한 나니까
Because I am so ugly
[Chorus: V]
[Chorus: V]
난 두려운 걸
I am afraid
초라해
I am so shabby
I'm so afraid
I'm so afraid
결국엔 너도 날 또 떠나버릴까
Will you eventually leave me too
또 가면을 쓰고 널 만나러 가
So I put my mask back on and go to meet you
[Post-Chorus: Jung Kook]
[Post-Chorus: Jung Kook]
할 수 있는 건
What I can do
정원에
In the garden
이 세상에
In this world
예쁜 너를 닮은 꽃을 피운 다음
Is grow a flower that resembles you, pretty as you
니가 아는 나로 숨쉬는 것
And breathe as the person you know
But I still want you
But I still want you
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
I still want you
I still want you
Ooh
Ooh
[Chorus: Jin]
[Chorus: Jin]
어쩌면 그때
Maybe back then
조금만
Just a little
이만큼만
This much
용길 내서 너의 앞에 섰더라면
If I had gathered courage and stood before you
지금 모든 건 달라졌을까
Would everything be different now?
[Post-Chorus: Jung Kook, Jimin]
[Post-Chorus: Jung Kook, Jimin]
난 울고 있어
I am crying
사라진
Disappeared
무너진
Crumbled
홀로 남겨진 이 모래성에서
In this sandcastle left all alone
부서진 가면을 바라보면서
Staring at the broken mask
And I still want you
And I still want you
But I still want you
But I still want you
But I still want you
But I still want you
And I still want you
And I still want you
