Answer : Love Myself
BTS Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

눈을 뜬다 어둠 속 나
심장이 뛰는 소리 낯설 때
마주 본다 거울 속 너
겁먹은 눈빛, 해묵은 질문

어쩌면 누군가를 사랑하는 것보다
더 어려운 게 나 자신을 사랑하는 거야
솔직히 인정할 건 인정하자
니가 내린 잣대들은 너에게 더 엄격하단 걸
니 삶 속의 굵은 나이테
그 또한 너의 일부, 너이기에
이제는 나 자신을 용서하자
버리기엔 우리 인생은 길어
미로 속에선 날 믿어
겨울이 지나면 다시 봄은 오는 거야

차가운 밤의 시선
초라한 날 감추려
몹시 뒤척였지만
Eh

저 수많은 별을 맞기 위해
난 떨어졌던가? (Hey-eh)
저 수천 개 찬란한 화살의 과녁은 나 하나
Eh

You've shown me I have reasons
I should love myself (oh, huh)
내 숨, 내 걸어온 길 전부로 답해

어제의 나, 오늘의 나, 내일의 나
(I'm learning how to love myself)
빠짐없이, 남김없이 모두 다 나

정답은 없을지도 몰라 (yeah, yeah)
어쩜 이것도 답은 아닌 거야 (yeah, right?)
그저 날 사랑하는 일조차
누구의 허락이 필요했던 거야 (so real)
난 지금도 나를 또 찾고 있어
But 더는 죽고 싶지가 않은 걸
슬프던 me, 아프던 me
더 아름다울 미

그래, 그 아름다움이 (ah-hah)
있다고, 아는 마음이 (alright)
나의 사랑으로 가는 길 (no way)
가장 필요한 나다운 일 eh
Uh 지금 날 위한 행보는 바로 날 위한 행동
날 위한 태도, 그게 날 위한 행복
I'll show you what I got
두렵진 않아, 그건 내 존재니까
Love myself

시작의 처음부터
끝의 마지막까지
해답은 오직 하나
Eh

왜 자꾸만 감추려고만 해
니 가면 속으로? (Hey-eh)
내 실수로 생긴 흉터까지 다 내 별자린데 yeah
Eh

You've shown me I have reasons
I should love myself, oh-uh-huh
내 숨, 내 걸어온 길 전부로 답해

내 안에는 여전히 oh
서툰 내가 있지만 whoa-whoa-whoa

You've shown me I have reasons
I should love myself
(I'm learning how to love myself) oh-oh
내 숨, 내 걸어온 길 전부로 답해 oh-whoa

어제의 나, 오늘의 나, 내일의 나




(I'm learning how to love myself)
빠짐없이, 남김없이 모두 다 나
