ATEEZ (에이티즈) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

아무것도 필요 없었어
너를 처음 본 그 순간
Cannot stop thinking about it yeah
어떤 말도 내겐 소용없었어
처음부터 이곳에
스스로 발을 들인 나

눈앞에 아른아른해 너는 마치 터지는 starlight
내 심장을 집어삼키는 불빛 oh no
Oh 난 눈이 멀어가 어떻게든 가져야겠어
그게 내가 숨을 쉬는 이유인걸
더는 못 참겠어

Oh I just can't help it myself yeah
널 향한 욕망은 so selfish oh yeah
그곳으로 난 가고 있어
'Cause you're there ('cause you're there)

My heart beating so fast
Heart beating so fast
터질 듯이 now now now now
Can't stop nobody else
Can't nobody else
갖고 싶어 no no

Fix on
딱 잘라 말해 욕망을 따라가
결국엔 닿겠지 남자의 직감이야
꿈에 닿을 때까지 I'ma keep go
저 불빛이 삼키지 내 눈빛 불타지 딱 wow

아주 먼 곳이지만 지치는 방법 모르지 난
Keep go until the end 끝까지
아직은 갈 길이 좀 멀어
I'm coming to the one 갖고 싶어 wow

눈앞에 아른아른한 너는 마치 꿈속에 treasure
그저 생각만 해도 떨리는 걸 oh no
Oh 난 아른아른한 기억을 하나 둘 모았어
지금까지의 길었던 시간 모두
난 다 잊었어

Oh I just can't help it myself yeah
널 향한 욕망은 so selfish oh yeah
그곳으로 난 가고 있어
'Cause you're there ('cause you're there)

My heart beating so fast
Heart beating so fast
터질 듯이 now now now now
Can't stop nobody else
Can't nobody else
갖고 싶어 no no

보이는 만큼 꿈을 꾸면
뻗은 만큼 잡아지면
내 맘 한켠에 키우는
새빨간 불꽃이 꽃피워 터지고 말 거야 (hoo)

내 두 눈에 가득 desire
내 마음에 가득 desire
이 떨림의 끝은 누구도 예측할 수 없기에
I love my desire

(Oh, oh, oh) oh
(Oh, oh, oh) I love my desire
(Oh, oh, oh) oh yeah, oh yeah
눈이 멀어가 (oh, oh, oh)

(Oh, oh, oh) I love my desire
(Oh, oh, oh) I love my desire
(Oh, oh, oh) I love my desire
(Oh, oh) I love my desire

I love my desire

Overall Meaning

In the first part of the song "Desire" by ATEEZ, the lyrics express a sense of overwhelming attraction towards someone upon first sight, to the point where nothing else matters. The singer reflects on how they couldn't help but be drawn to this person from the moment they laid eyes on them. The imagery of the person being compared to a "starlight" that captivates and consumes the singer's heart reinforces the idea of an intense and irresistible desire that cannot be ignored. Despite feeling consumed by this desire, the singer resolves to pursue it, unable to resist the pull they feel towards the object of their longing.


As the song progresses, the lyrics delve deeper into the theme of desire as a selfish yet compelling force that drives the singer relentlessly towards their object of affection. The urgency and intensity of the desire are emphasized through the repeated lines about the heart beating fast and the overwhelming need to possess what they desire.

The chorus of the song reinforces the idea of being fixated on one's desires and letting them guide the way, even if it means following a path that may be distant or challenging.

The lyrics suggest a willingness to pursue their desires relentlessly, despite obstacles or uncertainties, with a sense of conviction that propels them towards their ultimate goal.

The singer acknowledges the unpredictability and intensity of their desires, portraying them as a powerful force that fuels their passion and drives them towards an unknown but thrilling destination.
