Hello
많이 바뀌었네
짧아진 헤어스타일도
Hello
짙은 화장도 딴 사람 같은데
Hello
이제 알아 나란 사람
네겐 의미없단 걸 느껴 느껴

까먹겠지 뭐
다른 여자 만나면 돼
의미 없이
또 다른 남자 만나 뻔하겠지
잡지 못하게 예 뒤도 돌아보지마
No way yeah
난 그렇게 좋은 사람이 아냐
너무 어렵게 생각하지는 말아 no
착한 척
Doo doo roo doo doo roo
우린 원래 그런 사랑
Don't say yeah
널 사랑한걸 지워 지워 you
니 전화번호 지워 지워 모르게
우린 안돼 no no
원래 그런 사이 yeah
Good bye
매번 같은 말 지긋지긋해 babe
Good bye
우린 갈수록 가벼워졌잖아
Good bye
이제 알아 나란 사람
더 의미없단 걸 느껴
너도 잘 알잖아
난 원래 그런 놈
순진한 척 니 뒤에선 늘 더럽지
결혼 할 사이도 아닌데
무슨 사랑
그저 넌 내게 철 지난 장난감
밤새 술 마시고 딴 여자랑 놀고
아침이 되면 토해내
니 사진 기억도
이렇게 난 버려가겠지
넌 다른 놈과 사랑하겠지
난 그렇게 좋은 사람이 아냐
너무 어렵게 생각하지는 말아
No 착한 척
Doo doo roo doo doo roo
우린 원래 그런 사랑
Don't say yeah
널 사랑한걸 지워 지워
You 니 전화번호
지워 지워 모르게
우린 안돼 no no
원래 그런 사이
Bye bye 몰래 널 따라 걷다
까마득한 니 뒷모습에
멀어질수록 더 니가 생각나
나도 모르게 why
니가 자꾸 그리워 bye
널 사랑한걸 지워 지워
You 니 전화번호 지워 지워 모르게

우린 안돼 no no
원래 그런 사이 yeah

Overall Meaning

Hyolyn's "Erase" is a song about letting go of a toxic relationship. The song is an empowering anthem for those who have struggled with a partner who doesn't deserve their love. The singer starts off by acknowledging the changes in herself, including her shorter hairstyle and darker makeup. However, she also recognizes that the person she was with didn't appreciate who she was as a person. She reminds herself that she deserves someone who will value her for who she is and not someone who will treat her like a disposable toy.

Throughout the song, the singer emphasizes that she doesn't want to be in a relationship with someone who doesn't appreciate her. She encourages her partner to move on and find someone else, while also making it clear that she will do the same. She declares that they were never meant to be together and that she's better off without them. The chorus is a declaration that they were never meant to be in each other's lives, and she wants to erase all memories and evidence of their relationship.

The song has a powerful message about self-love and empowerment. It's a reminder that it's okay to move on from a toxic relationship and that there are better things waiting for you. Hyolyn's vocals add an emotional depth to the lyrics, making it a heartbreaking and impactful song.
