Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Ya) I see the ashes falling out your window
(Ya) there's someone in the mirror that you don't know (ya)
And everything was all wrong (ya, all wrong)
So burn it till it's all gone

Yeah yeah yeah burn it (burn it)
내 안의 소리
Yeah yeah yeah burn it
I want it, want it, want it whoa
Yeah yeah yeah burn it
내 안의 소리
Yeah yeah yeah burn it
I want it, want it, want it whoa

돌아가 보자고 지난날 ey
나를 파괴하던 시간과 ey
시기 증오 혹은 열등감
한들에게 사로잡힌 삶 ey

성공을 맛본 후 지난 난 ey
그때 와는 뭐가 다른가 ey
글쎄 크게 다르진 않아 ey
태워버리자고 지난 나

가장 깊은 곳 밑바닥까지 남김없이 또 타겠지
불을 붙여 더 불을 붙여 뭐 끝엔 뭐가 또 남을지
I don't know, I don't know eh 다 태우고 나면 뭐 이씻
재만 남을지도 모르지 (모르지) 아님 그대로일지 yeah

Burn it burn it yeah burn it burn it
가장 깊은 곳의 너를 마주하지
치부 혹은 증오 혐오 분노까지
그것 또한 얼마나 되려 허망한지
어쩌면 그것들은 맞아 신기루
어쩌면 그래 그것들을 빌미로
열정을 강요받는 것은 아닌지
초심이란 단어를 조심하길 바래 don't be afraid

불을 붙여봐 불을 붙여봐
뭐가 됐든 그래 말야 새꺄 불을 붙여봐
과거의 너 현재의 너
뭐든 좋으니까 새끼야 그래 불을 붙여봐
타오르는 태양이 될는지
아니면은 타고남은 재가 될는지
언제난 선택과 결정은 너의 몫
과감한 포기 또한 용기임을 잊지 말기를 yeah

Overall Meaning

The song "Burn It" by Agust D is a commentary on the importance of burning past experiences and failures in order to move on towards better things. The opening lyrics "I see the ashes falling out your window, there's someone in the mirror that you don't know" suggest that the singer is looking at themselves and seeing a version of themselves that they are not familiar with. This could mean that they have gone through changes or have had experiences that have altered the way they perceive themselves. The chorus serves as a reminder that burning one's inner demons and past experiences is essential for growth and a better future.


The second verse talks about a difficult time the singer has had in the past and how they feel caught up in feelings of jealousy, anger, and inferiority. They then question whether they are truly different from who they were in the past, and decide that burning the past is the only way to move forward. The post-chorus is a repetition of the idea that the singer wants to burn their inner voice, revealing a desire for change and a letting go of past negative thoughts.


The final verse speaks about the choice one has when it comes to the future. The burning of the past allows for a rebirth and the possibility of becoming like a burning sun, powerful and unstoppable. Yet, there is always the possibility of falling back into the ashes and becoming nothing if one doesn't make the effort to move forward. The overall message of the song is that burning the past is necessary for growth and change.

Man, I needed that one line as well... I dropped out of college, and it took me so much strenght to just quit.. Didn't felt right somehow.. Like it wasn't meant for me. Now I'm starting again, something new. Hope for something better!
And BTS is always here for us, no matter what. That's why I love them, they help me so much through life.

💚💚💚😊

Laufeyson Hii!!! It also happened to me!! I didn’t have courage to drop out of college and I started having depression and anxiety so I decided I had to fight for myself and I drop out of college. Listening to So Far Away gave me courage to opening to my parents and also have my own dream. Now I’m already in the 2nd year of other college and it’s not easy, but I’m happy with myself and I’m sure I did the right thing!! You’re so courageous to make a decision!! I wish you all the best in your future💜
