RUN
BTS/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 BTS/방탄소년단's song "RUN" express the feeling of being deeply infatuated with someone to the extent that life seems meaningless without them.

Despite their efforts to forget and move on, they cannot live without this person and even if they are thirsty for their love, it is too late to turn back. The singer compares their dreams to fragile illusions that shatter easily, and no matter how hard they run, they end up in the same place, trapped in their love-crazed obsession.


The chorus emphasizes the singer's inability to stop running towards their love, even if it means getting hurt or facing a foolish destiny. They acknowledge that love is the only thing they can do, and no matter how many times they fall or hurt themselves, it is okay because they find satisfaction in loving this person. The bridge of the song compares memories to withered flower petals, shattered and disappearing like the singer's hopes. They run after the traces left by the person they love, desperately asking for guidance and begging them to stop their relentless pursuit.
