PISCES
JUNIEL Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
마지막 얘길 나눴지
그래 너와 난
짧았던 우리 기억엔
뭐가 이렇게 많은지
조금 더 무겁게
나를 찾아와
까만 두물머리 속에
비 맞으며 함께 보던 바다
가볍게 취한 밤에
나누었던 얘기들
그때가 손끝에 닿을 듯해
내게서 머무는 듯해
환하게 웃는 널
부를 것 같아
다시 잠들고 싶어
너의 온기 속에서
너의 품에서
매일같이 꿈꾸듯
서로의 향길 맡았지
그래 우리는
빗물에 번지는 건지
놓지 못한 추억들이
아직도 그곳에서
바래져 가
너무나 가까이
너무 가깝지는 않은 사이
비가 오면 널 만날 것 같아
그때 그 시간 속
다정하게 웃어주던
그대가 손끝에 닿을 듯해
내게서 머무는 듯해
환하게 웃는 널
부를 것 같아
다시 잠들고 싶어
너의 온기 속에서
너의 품에서
뚝-뚝-뚝 뚝-뚝-뚝
그때 난
널 꼭 만났어야 해
널 놓지 말았어야 해
지우고 지워도
선명해져 가
지금 널 찾아가면
아무 일 없었다고
너의 품에서
잠들고 싶어
The lyrics of JUNIEL's song Pisces express the sentiments of a person reminiscing about a past relationship with their partner, and how that relationship continues to affect them even after it has ended. The song speaks about how the memories of the time spent together feel so vivid that they are almost tangible, and how they long to be with their partner again, even just for a moment. The lyrics also allude to the irony of how the memories that they cannot let go of are slowly fading away into the past.
The use of imagery in this song is noteworthy. The mention of the "pisces," or the fish, is not just a reference to the zodiac sign but also serves as a metaphor for the fleeting nature of time and the struggle to hold onto something that is constantly slipping away. The reference to the rain and the ocean further add to the theme of something that is transient and changing. The incessant sound of the drumbeat in the background signifies the heart's steady beating and the urgency with which the person desires to be with their partner again.
Overall, Pisces is a poignant and reflective piece that delves into the complexities of relationships and how they leave an imprint that can be hard to forget.

아무렇지 않은 듯
Pretending like nothing is wrong
마지막 얘길 나눴지
We had our last conversation
그래 너와 난
Yes, you and I
짧았던 우리 기억엔
In our brief memories
뭐가 이렇게 많은지
Why are there so many things?
조금 더 무겁게
A little more heavily
나를 찾아와
Come find me
까만 두물머리 속에
In the darkness of the water
찾았던 물고기자리
The Pisces we found
비 맞으며 함께 보던 바다
The sea we watched together in the rain
가볍게 취한 밤에
On a lightly drunken night
나누었던 얘기들
The stories we shared
그때가 손끝에 닿을 듯해
It feels like that time is at our fingertips
내게서 머무는 듯해
It feels like it's staying with me
환하게 웃는 널
You who brightly laugh
부를 것 같아
I think I'll call you
다시 잠들고 싶어
I want to go back to sleep
너의 온기 속에서
In your warmth
너의 품에서
In your arms
매일같이 꿈꾸듯
As if dreaming every day
서로의 향길 맡았지
We followed each other's scent
그래 우리는
Yes, we are
빗물에 번지는 건지
Are we spreading in the rain?
놓지 못한 추억들이
The memories we can't let go of
아직도 그곳에서
Still there
바래져 가
Becoming fainter
너무나 가까이
So close
너무 가깝지는 않은 사이
But not too close
비가 오면 널 만날 것 같아
If it rains, I feel like I'll meet you
그때 그 시간 속
In that moment
다정하게 웃어주던
The kind smile you gave
그대가 손끝에 닿을 듯해
It feels like you're within reach
내게서 머무는 듯해
It feels like you're staying with me
환하게 웃는 널
You who brightly laugh
부를 것 같아
I think I'll call you
다시 잠들고 싶어
I want to go back to sleep again
너의 온기 속에서
In your warmth
너의 품에서
In your arms
뚝-뚝-뚝 뚝-뚝-뚝
*sound of heartbeat*
그때 난
At that time, I
널 꼭 만났어야 해
Should have met you tightly
널 놓지 말았어야 해
Shouldn't have let you go
지우고 지워도
Even if I erase and erase
선명해져 가
It becomes clearer
지금 널 찾아가면
If I go look for you now
아무 일 없었다고
Nothing happened
너의 품에서
In your arms
잠들고 싶어
I want to go back to sleep

Some people doesn't seem to like this comeback. I, personally, love it so much. They don't sound alike at all, but this really reminds of her debut days back to Illa Illa, and this song really just warms my heart. To me, this is a strong comeback.
@jnfuruba
Yes!! I totally agree. I'm sad to see some bad reviews on this comeback but we cannot all be pleased, right?
@happydaysmile
i love it. and somewhere in the middle of this song there was a "illa illa" part
@jnfuruba
Apryl Lim :o Really? Do you know the specific timing? Anyway, that's so cool!
@VinzFernando9898
