방탄소년단 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Fall (everything)
Fall (everything)
Fall (everything)
흩어지네

Fall (everything)
Fall (everything)
Fall (everything)
떨어지네

너 땜에 나 이렇게 망가져 (망가져)
그만할래, 이제 너 안 가져 (안 가져)
못하겠어, 뭣 같아서
제발 핑계 같은 건 삼가줘 (삼가줘)

니가 나한테 이럼 안 돼 (안 돼)
니가 한 모든 말은 안대
진실을 가리고 날 찢어
날 찍어, 나 미쳐, 다 싫어
전부 가져가, 난 니가 그냥 미워

But you're my everything (you're my)
Everything (you're my)
Everything (you're my)
제발 좀 꺼져 huh

미안해 (hate you)
사랑해 (I hate you)
용서해
Shit

I need you girl
왜 혼자 사랑하고 혼자서만 이별해?
I need you girl
왜 다칠 걸 알면서 자꾸 니가 필요해?

I need you girl 넌 아름다워
I need you girl 너무 차가워
I need you girl (I need you girl)
I need you girl, I need you girl

It goes round and round 나 왜 자꾸 돌아오지?
I go down and down 이쯤 되면 내가 바보지
나 무슨 짓을 해봐도 어쩔 수가 없다고
분명 내 심장, 내 마음, 내 가슴인데
왜 말을 안 듣냐고

또 혼잣말하네 (또 혼잣말하네)
또 혼잣말하네 (또 혼잣말하네)
넌 아무 말 안 해, 아 제발, 내가 잘할게
하늘은 또 파랗게 (하늘은 또 파랗게)

하늘이 파래서, 햇살이 빛나서
내 눈물이 더 잘 보이나 봐
왜 나는 너인지, 왜 하필 너인지
왜 너를 떠날 수가 없는지

I need you girl
왜 혼자 사랑하고 혼자서만 이별해?
I need you girl
왜 다칠 걸 알면서 자꾸 니가 필요해?

I need you girl 넌 아름다워
I need you girl 너무 차가워
I need you girl (I need you girl)
I need you girl, I need you girl

Girl 차라리, 차라리 헤어지자고 해줘
Girl 사랑이, 사랑이 아니었다고 해줘 oh
내겐 그럴 용기가 없어
내게 마지막 선물을 줘
더는 돌아갈 수 없도록 oh

I need you girl (whoa, oh, babe)
왜 혼자 사랑하고 혼자서만 이별해?
I need you girl (yeah)
왜 다칠 걸 알면서 자꾸 니가 필요해?

I need you girl 넌 아름다워
I need you girl 너무 차가워




I need you girl (I need you girl)
I need you girl, I need you girl

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of BTS's “I Need U” portray a lyrical narrative about the pain and heartbreak of a person who desperately yearns for a love that is no longer consistent in their lives. The first lines of the song 'Fall (everything), Fall (everything), Fall (everything), 흩어지네 (scattered in the wind),' suggest that everything has fallen apart, and the subject is at a loss for direction. The chorus reflects the inner thoughts of the singer, who is in emotional turmoil, unable to accept the end of a significant relationship.


The lines “I need you girl, why do I love you alone and say goodbye alone?” demonstrate how the singer is frustrated that they are the only one who seems to be working towards a relationship together, and their partner's lack of involvement in it. The lyrics “Sorry, hate you, forgive me, sh*t,” show how the singer's mind is scattered, and they are uncertain of what they want or how to deal with the situation. They desperately need the other person back in their life, but at the same time, they hate them for leaving in the first place.


The song's melody and harmonies are very upbeat, contrasting significantly with the lyrics' narrative, adding an increased emotional context to the words. The track showcases the power and the range of BTS's vocalists, and the song's overall production helps convey the song's themes of melancholy and heartbreak.

When you realise your at the age this song was made for, it hits so differently. I found bts when I was 11 now I’m 16 leaving high school and living the youth they made songs about. I’m so happy to say I’ve been an army long enough to live my teens with them. 🫶

@btslifeu

I found them when I was 13 and now I'm 15 leaving my high school... I know I found them late but I found... I'm very happy

@tahiya450

@LITTLE KOOKIE 땡 I found them so long ago and it feels like I’ve grown up with them. We all find them at different times but the main thing is that we wait for them for their return in 2025

@heely3191

I found them when I was 12 and I'm 19 now; out of high school and trying to make it in the real world. Their MV's just get more relatable as time goes on hehe
