Black Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

그대가 가고 싶은 섬 나는 못 가요
알다시피 내 지은 죄가 오늘도 무겁네요
우리가 알던 그 장소는 무덤이 되었겠죠
추억을 고이 덮은 채 무궁화가 한가득
태평양 저 멀리 피었네

그대가 가고 싶은 섬 나는 못 가요
보다시피 내 발은 여기 아직 묶여있어요
우리가 듣던 그 파도는 돌아오지 않아요
손잡고 걷던 밤바다 검은 모래 위엔
부서진 유리만 남았네

오, 작년의 그늘이 나를 따라와요
드디어 내 그림자가 되려나 봐요




하지만 한 줌 햇살도 나는 못 가져가요
내 방은 작은 공기도 움직이지 않는 걸요

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Black's song "Black" speak to the weight of the singer's guilt and the impossibility of escaping their past mistakes. The opening lines, "I can't go to the island you want to go / As you know, the sins I've committed are heavy today," set the tone for the rest of the song. The singer is unable to physically or emotionally move on from their past, represented by the island they cannot reach. The place they once knew has become a tomb, burying their memories beneath a field of forget-me-nots.


The second verse further depicts the singer's inability to move forward. Their feet are still tied to the ground, even as they long to join the waves that no longer crash upon the shore. The imagery of broken glass on black sand implies a sense of destruction and loss, as the memories of the past have been shattered beyond repair. The chorus repeats the sentiment that the singer cannot escape their past, even though they long to step into the light and move forward.


The bridge introduces a new layer of complexity to the singer's emotional state. They feel as though the shadows of the past are creeping up on them, threatening to swallow them whole. However, they acknowledge that they cannot even take a beam of sunlight with them, as their present circumstances leave them stagnant and without fresh air to breathe. The lyrics speak to the difficult and often painful process of moving on from one's past mistakes.

그대가 가고 싶은 섬 나는 못 가요
I can't go to the island you want to go to


알다시피 내 지은 죄가 오늘도 무겁네요
As you know, my guilt weighs heavy on me today


우리가 알던 그 장소는 무덤이 되었겠죠
The place we knew has probably become a grave


추억을 고이 덮은 채 무궁화가 한가득
With our memories buried deep, the endless flowers blossom


태평양 저 멀리 피었네
The Pacific Ocean blooms far away


보다시피 내 발은 여기 아직 묶여있어요
As you can see, my feet are still bound here


우리가 듣던 그 파도는 돌아오지 않아요
The waves we used to hear don't come back


손잡고 걷던 밤바다 검은 모래 위엔
On the black sand of the night sea we walked hand in hand


부서진 유리만 남았네
Only broken glass remains


오, 작년의 그늘이 나를 따라와요
Oh, last year's shadow follows me


드디어 내 그림자가 되려나 봐요
I guess my shadow is finally becoming me


하지만 한 줌 햇살도 나는 못 가져가요
But I can't even take a handful of sunshine with me


내 방은 작은 공기도 움직이지 않는 걸요
My room doesn't even have the movement of a small breath

Lyrics:

He left no time to regret
Kept his dick wet
With his same old safe bet
Me and my head high
And my tears dry
Get on without my guy
You went back to what you knew
So far removed
From all that we went through
And I tread a troubled track
My odds are stacked
I'll go back to black
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to
I go back to us
I love you much
It's not enough
You love blow and I love puff
And life is like a pipe
And I'm a tiny penny
Rolling up the walls inside
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to
Black, black
Black, black
Black, black
Black
I go back to
I go back to
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to black

We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her

And I go back to
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to black
