오아시스
EXO - Topic Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
날 유혹하듯 이어진
그곳만이 세상의
전부인 줄만 알았어
거칠어진 숨
해답을 찾기 바쁜 눈
말라가는 내 입술
끝없이 이어진 이 길 우린
조금 더 멀리 더 멀리
아득한 이 길을 따라
Runnin', I'm runnin'
Chasing the sun
긴 하루를 run run run, run run run
Run run run, run run run
만들어진 길엔 결국 모두
끝이 있다는 걸 알아버린
내게 문득 답을 되묻듯
네 멋대로 가
굳이 멈추지는 마
방향 따윈 재지마
헤맬수록 목이 타 yeah yeah
붉게 물든 desert
너머 오아시스 찾아 나서
조금 더 멀리 더 멀리
아득한 이 길을 따라
Runnin', I'm runnin'
Chasing the sun
긴 하루를 run run run, run run run
Run run run, run run run
우린 더 멀리 더 멀리
간 적 없는 길을 찾아
Runnin', I'm runnin'
Chasing the sun
Yeah, I'm on the road
보다 먼 그곳을 더
나는 갈망하는 걸
타들어 갈 목마름에 난 oh
조금 더 멀리 더 멀리
아득한 이 길을 따라
Runnin', I'm runnin'
Chasing the sun
긴 하루를 run run run, run run run
Run run run, run run run (I'm on the road)
우린 더 멀리 더 멀리
간 적 없는 길을 찾아
Runnin', I'm runnin'
Chasing the sun
Yeah, I'm on the road
Run run run, run run run
Run run run, run run run (I'm on the road, yeah)
Yeah I'm on the road
The lyrics of EXO - Topic's song "오아시스" express a longing for a distant and unknown place. The opening lines talk about how everything that seemed magnificent and tempting ended up being just one place, which was believed to be the entirety of the world. The rough breath and busy eyes searching for answers suggest that the journey has been tough and exhausting. The dryness of the lips represents the endlessness of the path they are on.
In the chorus, the artist sings about wanting to go further and further along this distant path, running and chasing the sun. The repetition of "run run run" emphasizes the perseverance and determination to keep going despite the challenges faced throughout the long day. It conveys a message of refusing to give up or be discouraged.
The lyrics continue with the realization that the path created ultimately has an end. The artist questions if they should continue following their own path without stopping, despite the burning thirst and the temptation to question the direction. The mention of the burning throat and the red desert symbolizes the hardships and difficulties encountered on the way. The lyrics encourage seeking an oasis beyond, indicating a desire for a place of refreshment and relief.
The second verse echoes the longing to go further and find an unexplored path. The repetition of "runnin', I'm runnin'," emphasizes the determination to chase after the sun, suggesting a pursuit of dreams and a desire for something more.
The lyrics conclude with the artist expressing their deep desire to go even further than the distant place and to quench their thirst. They have an insatiable longing for a place beyond what can be seen, indicating a restless spirit and a yearning for exploration. The repetition of "run run run" and "I'm on the road" reinforces the determination to keep moving forward and seeking new experiences. The song overall speaks to the human desire to push boundaries, explore the unknown, and never settle for what is already known.
