RUN
방탄소년단 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

넌 내 하나뿐인 태양 세상에 딱 하나
널 향해 피었지만 난 자꾸 목말라
너무 늦었어 늦었어 너 없이 살 순 없어
가지가 말라도 더 힘껏 손을 뻗어

손 뻗어봤자 금세 깨버릴 꿈 (꿈 꿈)
미칠 듯 달려도 또 제자리일 뿐 (뿐 뿐)
그냥 날 태워줘 그래 더 밀쳐내줘
이건 사랑에 미친 멍청이의 뜀박질

더 뛰게 해줘
나를 더 뛰게 해줘
두 발에 상처만 가득해도
니 얼굴만 보면 웃는 나니까

다시 run run run 난 멈출 수가 없어
또 run run run 난 어쩔 수가 없어
어차피 이것밖에 난 못해
너를 사랑하는 것 밖엔 못해

다시 run run run 넘어져도 괜찮아
또 run run run 좀 다쳐도 괜찮아
가질 수 없다 해도 난 족해
바보 같은 운명아 나를 욕해

(Run) don't tell me bye bye
(Run) you make me cry cry
(Run) love is a lie lie
Don't tell me, don't tell me
Don't tell me bye bye

다 끝난 거라는데 난 멈출 수가 없네
땀인지 눈물인지 나 더는 분간 못해 oh
내 발가벗은 사랑도 거친 태풍 바람도
나를 더 뛰게만 해 내 심장과 함께

더 뛰게 해줘
나를 더 뛰게 해줘
두 발에 상처만 가득해도
니 얼굴만 보면 웃는 나니까

다시 run run run 난 멈출 수가 없어
또 run run run 난 어쩔 수가 없어
어차피 이것밖에 난 못해
너를 사랑하는 것 밖엔 못해

다시 run run run 넘어져도 괜찮아
또 run run run 좀 다쳐도 괜찮아
가질 수 없다 해도 난 족해
바보 같은 운명아 나를 욕해

추억들이 마른 꽃잎처럼
산산이 부서져가
내 손 끝에서 내 발 밑에서
달려가는 네 등 뒤로
마치 나비를 쫓듯 꿈 속을 헤매듯
너의 흔적을 따라가
길을 알려줘 날 좀 멈춰줘
날 숨쉬게 해줘

다시 run run run 난 멈출 수가 없어
또 run run run 난 어쩔 수가 없어
어차피 이것밖에 난 못해
너를 사랑하는 것 밖엔 못해

다시 run run run 넘어져도 괜찮아
또 run run run 좀 다쳐도 괜찮아
가질 수 없다 해도 난 족해
바보 같은 운명아 나를 욕해

(Run) don't tell me bye bye
(Run) you make me cry cry
(Run) love is a lie lie




Don't tell me, don't tell me
Don't tell me bye bye

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of 방탄소년단's song Run depict the desperation and determination of someone who is deeply in love, yet lost, confused, and hopeless. The singer of the song is likened to the only sun in the world, implying his uniqueness and indispensability in the eyes of the addressee. However, despite his devotion and hard efforts to reach and please the addressee, he feels thirsty, late, and unable to live without her. The dreams and goals he chases seem to collapse as soon as he reaches for them, leaving him running in circles, trapped in his folly. He acknowledges his obsession and recklessness but sees no escape from the love that has driven him insane. He begs for more pain, more struggle, more love, as long as it is with her.


The chorus repeats the title phrase "Run" as a mantra to keep going, even if it hurts or he falls, and to declare that he cannot do anything but love her. He is determined to overcome any obstacle, whether it is physical or emotional, and to accept his fate as a fool who cannot let go. He refuses to be told goodbye, cry, or that love is a lie, as he clings to the hope that his love will be enough to sustain him and to make her stay.


Overall, the lyrics of Run reveal the intense and overwhelming nature of love, as well as its ability to drive someone to both greatness and madness. It portrays the conflicting feelings of passion and pain that can arise from being deeply in love and unable to control the outcome.

오랜만에 보러왔는데 이때 정말 풋풋했고 귀여웠다. 지금도 좋지만, 이때의 방탄소년단도 엄청 좋았고, 이때가 살짝 그리워진다..

I love mvs like that, without cgi or so much planning, just basic cameras and people in front of them. This feels like art.
