불길한 말 머릿속에 퍼지고 숨죽인 밤 서러움은 커질 때 불 꺼진 방문을 걸어 잠근 채 이 시간 지나가길 기도해 내게로 와 타오르는 시선 내게로 와 흔들리는 위선 내게로 와 씻어내지 못한 내게로 와 이 모든 것이 Love of my life 입바른 말 거짓말들이 모든 것을 가리고 숨어버리네 막다른 길 다른 길은 있다고 섣부른 말 너무 쉽게 얘기해 맞잡은 손 온기 따윈 모른 채 이대로 사라지길 기도해 내게로 와 타오르는 시선 내게로 와 흔들리는 위선 내게로 와 씻어내지 못한 내게로 와 이 모든 것이 Love of my life 입바른 말 거짓말들이 모든 것을 가리고 숨어버리네 어두운 밤거리에 홀로 남은 날 알 수 없는 증오가 집어삼켜 왜 이대로 날 버려두고 가지 말아줘 제발 나를 이대로 제발 나를 오 제발 나를 Love of my life 입바른 말 거짓말들이 모든 것을 가리고 숨어버리네 어두운 밤거리에 홀로 남은 날 알 수 없는 증오가 집어삼켜 왜

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to ABTB's song "Love Of My Life" depict a person who is experiencing the turmoil of a relationship filled with deceit and hidden emotions. The opening lines suggest that negative thoughts and sadness are growing inside their mind, while they silently endure the pain in the darkness of the night. They walk towards a closed door, symbolizing the desire to lock away their emotions and hoping that time will eventually heal their wounds. The chorus echoes their plea for the person they love to come to them, with burning gazes and shaky pretenses, hoping that they will be able to wash away all the unspoken feelings and unresolved issues.

The second verse expresses the frustration of being misunderstood, as the singer acknowledges that there are other paths to take aside from the dead-end they find themselves in. They express their sadness at how easily they speak rash words without considering the consequences and wish for their hand to be held tightly, without the warmth being felt or acknowledged. They continue to pray for their pain to disappear, while holding onto the hope that the person they love will come towards them, with their intense gaze and their hypocritical behavior, to finally address the unspoken feelings and conflicts.

The bridge of the song portrays a lonely night where the singer is left alone, swallowed by an unknown hatred in the dark streets. They plead for their loved one to not abandon them like this and ask them to please not leave them behind. The chorus is repeated again as they express their frustration at how the love of their life hides everything behind false and polite words, concealing the truth and disappearing from their view.

Overall, the lyrics of "Love Of My Life" depict the struggle and longing for a genuine connection in a relationship filled with lies and pretenses. It expresses the plea for the other person to come closer, to acknowledge the unspoken feelings, and to stop hiding behind false words, while also conveying the fear of being abandoned and consumed by unknown hatred.
