난 매사에 철저하고 냉소적이니까
I'm thorough and cynical in everything I do.
여자에게 정 주는 건 소모적인 짓이야
Giving your heart to a girl is a wasteful endeavor.
도둑처럼 연애하는 저들 처지를 봐
Look at them, dating like thieves in the night.
다치지 않기 위해 서로가 거짓 돼야 해
To avoid getting hurt, we both must wear a mask.
그런 악조건 속에서 과감해지기란
In such harsh conditions, daring to be bold is tough.
쉽지 않아 낭만이란 덫에 뒷걸음치다
It's not easy, stepping back into the trap of romance.
너와 부딪힌 찰나에 끝이 났지
In the moment I collided with you, it all came to an end.
그림이나 글로는 묘사 못하는 당시
At that time, it was something words or pictures couldn't capture.
용건 없는 전화를 걸고
I make calls with no purpose at all,
시답지 않은 농담으로 유난을 떨고
And crack silly jokes to make a fuss.
남 얘기처럼 너와 내 사연을 놓고
Just like someone else's story, we lay our tale down,
친구 놈 반응 살피다 괜히 화색이 돌고
Watching how my friend reacts, my face lights up for no reason,
쪽 팔리는 것도 있지만 자기자신도
There’s a bit of embarrassment, but it’s also about myself,
납득이 안 가는 게 사랑인가 봐
I guess not understanding is what love really is,
삶이란 게 참 그래 간절히 원하는 게
Life’s like that; the things we desire most,
있어도, 쉽게 가져다 주지 않아
Even if we have them, they don’t come easily,
Pride and prejudice
Pride and prejudice,
Tell me what is more important
Tell me what is more important,
내가 잘못 생각했었지
I must have been thinking wrong,
ain't nothing but love
ain't nothing but love
사람은 변해
People change,
살면서 이랬던 적 없지
Never thought I'd feel this way in my life,
괴롭긴 해도 stay in your lane
It's tough, but stay in your lane,
인상피고 다정한 말투 연습
Practicing gentle words with a thoughtful look,
의도가 있던 여러 가지 우연들
All the various coincidences had their intentions,
첫눈에 반하면 현실적인 사람도
Even a pragmatic person falls at first sight,
무모하게 바뀌어 내걸 얻으려고
Changing recklessly just to grasp what I want,
색을 지우다 되려 번져버린 캔버스
As I erase colors, the canvas smudges instead,
덮었다가 펴도 같은 페이지 같은 대목
Whether I cover it or reveal it, it’s the same page, the same passage,
넌 존재만으로 내 삶에 자국을 냈고
Just by existing, you’ve left marks on my life,
난 그 자취를 쫓는 탐정이 됐어
I've become a detective chasing your traces.
내 사랑 노래는 꾸며 만든 판타지
My love song is a crafted fantasy
근데 며칠 앓더니 책이나 영화 없이
But after a few days of suffering, without any books or movies
그저 내 얘기를 담고 있네 겁이 난 건지
It's just holding my story, whether I'm scared or not.
내가 못난 건지 결국 우린 가장 가까이
Maybe I'm the foolish one, but in the end, we are the closest.
살면서 먼 사이로 지내
Through life, we drift apart.
여지가 남은 나의 끝인사에
In my farewell that still has room for hope,
담담히 마침표를 찍은 너
You, who quietly closed the chapter.
널 과묵하게 사랑하면 안 됐어
I shouldn't have loved you in silence
슬픔은 머금을수록 넘치는 것
The more you hold onto sadness, the more it overflows.
Pride and prejudice
Pride and prejudice
Tell me what is more important
Tell me what matters most
내가 잘못 생각했었지 ain't nothing but love
I used to think wrong, ain't nothing but love
사람은 변해 살면서 이랬던 적 없지
People change, it's something we've never been through before.
괴롭긴 해도 stay in your lane
It’s painful, but stay in your lane
바쁘단 말로 무마했던 뜻 없는 만남들
Meaningless meetings brushed off with the excuse of being busy
충동적인 하룻밤 사랑도
An impulsive night of love
사실 다 나의 오만함인 것 같아
Honestly, it all feels like my arrogance.
Pride and prejudice
Pride and prejudice
Tell me what is more important
Tell me what matters more
내가 잘못 생각했었지
I thought wrong after all
ain't nothing but love
ain't nothing but love
사람은 변해 살면서 이랬던 적 없지
People change, never been like this before
괴롭긴 해도 stay in your lane
It's tough, but stay in your lane
