보이프렌드 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
애써 참고 있어 난
떨리는 내 두 손을
힘껏 잡고 있어 난
속고 있는 거야 넌
괜찮다는 내 말에
등 뒤에서 눈물을
모두 쏟고 있어 난
그 작은 입술이 미안해
내 앞에서 주저 앉는 너
뜨겁던 나를 삼키고
니 눈물 훔치며 미안해
온 힘을 다해 안는 나
너의 어깨너머 뱉는 한숨
너의 어깨너머 차오는 눈물
그건 나만 아는
시선에 남긴다
끝까지 너의
기억 안에 살고 싶고
너의 기억 안에 웃고만 싶어
바보처럼 그저 너에게 웃는다
You\'re not a bad girl
You\'re not a bad girl
날 위한 눈물 그 눈물 거둬
그 애가 다쳐 나 땜에 다쳐
그러니 참고 또 참아야 해
네가 왜 네가 왜 네가 왜
나 땜에 울어
넌 항상 밝게 웃어 왜 울어
잊어 난 다 털고 편하게 떠나
못 믿니
네 발목 잡고 싶지 않아
나의 가슴 깊이 뛰는 심장
나의 가슴 깊이 잡아둔 미련
그건 나만 아는 맘으로 묻는다
끝까지 너의 웃음만을 보고싶고
너의 웃음만은 지키고 싶어
어제처럼 그저 나에게 웃어줘
You\'re not a bad girl
You\'re not a bad girl
여기 내 심장 내 심장 속에
내 속을 감춰 널 위해 감춰
나를 다잡고 또 잡아야 해
너만이 내 주인이고
원하면 나를 떠날 수 있고
기꺼이 너를 보내
널 위해 나는 널 보내
You\'re not a bad girl
You\'re not a bad girl
날 위한 눈물 그 눈물 거둬
그 애가 다쳐 나 땜에 다쳐
그러니 참고 또 참아야 해
지금 웃고 있지만
애써 참고 있어 난
떨리는 내 두 손을
힘껏 잡고 있어 난
속고 있는 거야
넌 괜찮다는 내 말에
등 뒤에서 눈물을
모두 쏟고 있어 난
The lyrics in "야누스" by 보이프렌드 describe the heartbreak and regret of a failed relationship from the perspective of one who feels responsible for the other person's pain. The singer puts on a brave face, smiling through their own pain and trying to convince their partner that everything is okay. However, they know deep down that their partner is hurting, and they are holding onto their trembling hands tightly. The singer confesses that their partner is still crying behind their back, while they keep up the act of being okay. The singer is sorry for their partner's pain, and they feel a sense of responsibility for it.
The chorus repeats the message that their partner is not a bad person while she cries for him. The singer knows that their partner is crying because of their actions, and it hurts them to see it. They implore their partner to stop crying, and they ask them to forget everything and move on. They want to protect their partner's smile and make them happy always. However, they acknowledge their partner's right to leave if that's what they want.
Overall, "야누스" is a poignant ballad about the complexities of love, relationships, and heartbreak. It portrays the importance of communication and honesty in relationships, and the regrets that come with missed opportunities.

지금 웃고 있지만
Though I am smiling right now,
애써 참고 있어 난
I am holding back my true emotions,
떨리는 내 두 손을
Despite my trembling hands,
힘껏 잡고 있어 난
I am holding onto them firmly,
속고 있는 거야 넌
You are deceiving me,
괜찮다는 내 말에
By pretending to be okay with what I say,
등 뒤에서 눈물을
You shed tears behind my back,
모두 쏟고 있어 난
While I pour my heart out,
떨리던 작은 어깨가
Your small trembling shoulders,
그 작은 입술이 미안해
And your small lips, full of apology,
내 앞에서 주저 앉는 너
You hesitate and sit in front of me,
뜨겁던 나를 삼키고
You swallow up my passionate feelings,
니 눈물 훔치며 미안해
I am sorry for stealing your tears,
온 힘을 다해 안는 나
I embrace you with all my might,
너의 어깨너머 뱉는 한숨
Taking a deep breath over your shoulder,
너의 어깨너머 차오는 눈물
And the tears rolling down your shoulder,
그건 나만 아는
I am the only one who knows this,
시선에 남긴다
I etch it into my memory,
끝까지 너의
Until the very end,
기억 안에 살고 싶고
I want to live in your memories,
너의 기억 안에 웃고만 싶어
And I want to be only the cause of your laughter,
바보처럼 그저 너에게 웃는다
I foolishly just smile at you,
You're not a bad girl
You're not a bad girl
You're not a bad girl
You're not a bad girl
날 위한 눈물 그 눈물 거둬
Please don't cry for me anymore,
그 애가 다쳐 나 땜에 다쳐
You got hurt because of me,
그러니 참고 또 참아야 해
So you have to endure and hold back,
네가 왜 네가 왜 네가 왜
Why are you crying because of me?
나 땜에 울어
Because of me, you are crying,
넌 항상 밝게 웃어 왜 울어
You always smile brightly, so why are you crying?
잊어 난 다 털고 편하게 떠나
Forget me and go, free from any attachments,
못 믿니
Don't you trust me,
네 발목 잡고 싶지 않아
But I don't want to hold you back,
나의 가슴 깊이 뛰는 심장
My heart that beats deeply,
나의 가슴 깊이 잡아둔 미련
My lingering attachment in the depths of my heart,
그건 나만 아는 맘으로 묻는다
I will bury that feeling in my own heart and keep it to myself,
끝까지 너의 웃음만을 보고싶고
I want to see only your laughter until the very end,
너의 웃음만은 지키고 싶어
And I want to protect only your laughter,
어제처럼 그저 나에게 웃어줘
Just smile at me like you did yesterday,
You're not a bad girl
You're not a bad girl
You're not a bad girl
You're not a bad girl
여기 내 심장 내 심장 속에
Here, inside my heart,
내 속을 감춰 널 위해 감춰
I hide my feelings inside, only for you,
나를 다잡고 또 잡아야 해
I have to keep holding on to you,
너만이 내 주인이고
You are my only owner,
원하면 나를 떠날 수 있고
If you want, you can leave me,
기꺼이 너를 보내
And I will let you go willingly,
널 위해 나는 널 보내
For your sake, I will let you go,
You're not a bad girl
You're not a bad girl
You're not a bad girl
You're not a bad girl
날 위한 눈물 그 눈물 거둬
Please don't cry for me anymore,
그 애가 다쳐 나 땜에 다쳐
You got hurt because of me,
그러니 참고 또 참아야 해
So you have to endure and hold back,
지금 웃고 있지만
Though I am smiling right now,
애써 참고 있어 난
I am holding back my true emotions,
떨리는 내 두 손을
Despite my trembling hands,
힘껏 잡고 있어 난
I am holding onto them firmly,
속고 있는 거야
You are deceiving me,
넌 괜찮다는 내 말에
By pretending to be okay with what I say,
등 뒤에서 눈물을
You shed tears behind my back,
모두 쏟고 있어 난
While I pour my heart out,
