あるように聞こえるから what's what
謎の足跡見つけたら follow
飲み込まれる my shadow
光の裏側に潜めた what?
会えない君だけが知る my answer
時が流れるほど深まる君の
過去と未来の間にいる僕は今
Don't leave me
Now believe 走り出す (走り出す)
No ending 君は僕の鼓動 (僕の鼓動)
例えどんな雨に打たれても
例えどんな闇に消されても
救い出すよ必ず
君は一人じゃない (じゃない)
動くはずのない時計の針が今
一歩一歩を踏み出すように moving on
Calling me, passing me すれ違い all of it, destiny
それでも始まる one way race 離れ始めても that's okay
You don't gotta worry about a thing, nah, not a thing
今度は俺が送る番 必ず届ける your thoughts
時が戻せるなら 出直せるのに
影と光の間にいる君は 泣く
Don't leave me
Now believe 手を伸ばす (手を伸ばす)
No ending 君が僕の希望 (僕の希望)
例えどんな雨に打たれても
例えどんな闇に消されても
目を閉じずに感じて
君は一人じゃない (じゃない)
全ては秒速で過去へ
今を生きる意味を知った 君と出会って
Don't leave me
Now believe 走り出す (走り出す)
No ending 君は僕の鼓動 (僕の鼓動)
例えどんな雨に打たれても
例えどんな闇に消されても
救い出すよ必ず
君は一人じゃない (じゃない)
The lyrics of BTS (防弾少年団)'s song "Don't Leave Me" depicts a profound sense of love and devotion for someone who is not physically present. The first verse talks about the different meanings one can interpret from the words of the loved one. The second verse mentions finding mysterious footsteps and following their shadow into the dark to uncover what's hidden. While being stuck between past and future, the singer hopes to understand everything before the inevitable end.
The chorus, "Don't leave me, now believe," signifies the importance of having faith and trust despite hardships. The singer assures the loved one that they will not be alone, and their heartbeat will remain no matter what they go through. The lines repeating "even if struck by any rain," and "even if wiped out by any darkness," essentially reveal the endurance of their bond.
The third verse brings up the notion of time moving on, a non-working clock, and destiny, but even in the face of everything hindering the connection, the singer urges the other to move forward. The lyrics emphasize that despite the singer being unable to reverse the shadowy reality, their devotion will not falter. The song's perspective is full of reassurance, and their constant encouragement never wavers.
