아른대는 Something
Flickering Something
떠나고픈 Feeling
A feeling I want to escape
거울 속엔 지친 My face
In the mirror, my tired face
길 잃은 맘의 갈피
The lost heart's hesitation
반복되는 Trouble
Repeating Trouble
다른 게 좀 필요해
I need something different
미룰 수 없잖아
Can't put it off any longer
Cause life's too short
망설이다 흘러가
Hesitating as time flows away
무슨 일이 벌어질까 궁금해
I wonder what will happen
훌쩍 떠난 그 순간
In that moment I left suddenly
내 방식대로 갈래
I’ll go my own way
And I don't care
what you say about it
어차피 둘 중 하나
After all, it's one or the other
Do it or not
꿈꿔온 어딘가로
To somewhere I've dreamed of
Why would I ever stop
단순하게 갈래
I'll choose simply
No I don't care
what you say about it
걸음이 닿는 대로
Wherever my steps reach
Way that I want
거기가 어디라도
Wherever that may be
Why would I ever stop
나만 아는 Story
A story only I know
혼자만의 Posting
My solitary Posting
꾸며볼래 All my life
I want to decorate All my life
머물고픈 순간 속에
In the moment I want to stay
영원할 내 모습
My timeless self
남겨둘래 All this time
I want to keep it All this time
두려워하지 마
Don't be afraid
Cause life's too short
후회 없이 걸어가
Walk on without regrets
때론 비가 쏟아져도
Even when the rain pours down
I don't care
쉬어갈 수 있는 걸
I can take a break
내 방식대로 갈래
I’ll go my own way
And I don't care
what you say about it
어차피 둘 중 하나
After all, it's one or the other
Do it or not
꿈꿔온 어딘가로
To somewhere I've dreamed of
Why would I ever stop
단순하게 갈래
I'll choose simply
No I don't care
what you say about it
걸음이 닿는 대로
Wherever my steps reach
Way that I want
거기가 어디라도
Wherever that may be
Why would I ever stop
내 방식대로 갈래
I’ll go my own way
단순하게 갈래
I'll choose simply
Why would I ever stop
더 멋진 오늘이 곁에 있는 걸
A more wonderful today is by my side
So why are you wasting your time?
단 한 걸음으로 달라진
Just one step can change
하룬 눈부시게 변해가
A day shines dazzlingly
더 자유롭길 바래
I hope to be more free
수없이 펼쳐질 모든 날이
All the days that will unfold endlessly
인생은 한 번인 걸
Life is something you only live once
Do it right now
더 빛날 세상으로
To a world that shines brighter
Why would I ever stop
늦기 전에 갈래
I'll go before it's too late
시간을 멈출 순 없을 테니
Cause I can't stop time
때로는 서툴러도
Sometimes I might be awkward
Way that I want
거기가 어디라도
Wherever that may be
Why would I ever stop
내 방식대로 갈래
I’ll go my own way
(Life's Too Short)
단순하게 갈래
I'll choose simply
(Life's Too Short)
Why would I ever stop
더 자유롭길 바래
I hope to be more free
늦기 전에 갈래
I'll go before it's too late
