My Story
Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

어두운 밤 위로 떠오른 기억들이
별이 되어 빛난 story
시간 사이로 사라진 추억들을
몇 번이고 되돌리지
그건 아마 마치 현실 같은 꿈
어쩌면 꿈만 같던 truth
계속 그 사이를 오가 on a loop
기억에 갇혀버린 듯
Ooh, ooh-whoa 지나가 버린 시간
Ooh, ooh-whoa 그뿐이라는 걸 알지만

외딴섬 위로 적어 둔 낙서들이
별이 되어 빛난 story
찬란했었던 나의 그 계절들을
몇 번이고 되돌리지
그 밤의 너와 그 밤의 내가
그 밤의 너와 oh 그 밤의 내가
지나쳐 왔던 수많은 갈림길이
전부 여행 같았었지
Ah 들어 줘 it's my story
Ah 들어 줘 it's my story

Okay 지난 상처는 왜 흐릿해질까?
다 지나 보니 괜찮아
자연스레 나는 어른이 됐고
조금은 편안해졌어
Ooh, ooh-whoa 가장 아름다웠던
Ooh, ooh-whoa 그때로 돌아가는 밤

외딴섬 위로 적어 둔 낙서들이
별이 되어 빛난 story
찬란했었던 나의 그 계절들을
몇 번이고 되돌리지
그 밤의 너와 그 밤의 내가
그 밤의 너와 oh 그 밤의 내가
지나쳐 왔던 수많은 갈림길이
전부 여행 같았었지
Ah 들어 줘 it's my story
Ah 들어 줘 it's my story

흩어져 버린 시간
다시 되돌릴 수는 없지만
저 깊은 밤 어딘가 (어딘가) 날 보고 있겠지

모래성 위로 쌓아둔 기억들이
바람결에 흩날리지
눈이 부시던 순간은 여전히도
선명하게 느껴지지
수많은 너와 수많은 내가
수많은 너와 oh 수많은 내가




찾아 헤매던 모습을 마주하지 (마주하지)
Let me tell you what's my story

Overall Meaning

In these lyrics, 렌 expresses the idea of memories turning into stars and shining brightly, creating a story. The memories that have disappeared between the passage of time are often revisited, as if they were dreams that seemed so real. The repetition of going back and forth in these memories feels like being trapped in them. The lyrics acknowledge that although time has passed, it can only be seen as something that has been left behind.


Writing on a remote island becomes graffiti that transforms into stars, illuminating a beautiful story. The singer reflects on the seasons of their life, wanting to rewind and relive those cherished moments. The lyrics imply that there were many crossroads in the past, but they were all part of a journey that felt like traveling.


In the next part, the lyrics ponder why past scars become blurred over time. As the pain of the past diminishes, the singer has naturally grown into adulthood and found some comfort. The most beautiful nights, longing to go back in time, return in a nostalgic manner.


Once again, the memories written on a remote island become scattered, but they still create a radiant story. The lyrics express the desire to repeatedly turn back time to the seasons that once shone brightly. The numerous instances of the singer and the way they traversed various paths felt like a journey.


The final verse suggests that although time has been scattered and cannot be rewound, somewhere in the deep night, someone might be watching over the singer. Memories built on a sand castle get swept away by the wind, but the moments that were blindingly beautiful still resonate vividly. The singer acknowledges the countless versions of themselves and the countless versions of the person they were with, finally meeting the searching self. The lyrics imply a desire to share and tell their story.
