Energy
Jung Yong-Hwa Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah, do you see me fallin′?

Another day 어제와 같은 시각에 yeah
잠을 깨 가까운 카페에 가
커피 한 잔 심지어 날 반기는 인사도 똑같은데
(변한 건 없는데)

이상하게 오늘은 힘이 없어 oh
모든 게 아무런 의미 없어 보이는걸
이유를 찾지만 I don't know
No, I don′t know

I'm out of energy
무너지고 있는 나를 can't you see?
세상의 모든 짐이 나의 어깨 위
여기에서 날 눌러 I′m falling, falling, falling

I need your energy
움직일 수가 없어 please, give your hands to me
숨을 쉴 수가 없어 now I′m on my knees
Hold me, hold me, please

그땐 욕심이 많았었지 yeah
No thanks, 니가 보낸 걱정들이
지금 생각해 보니 내 곁에 있던 건 너뿐인데
(변함 없었는데)

후회해봤자 지난 일인걸
다 아는데 니가 너무나 필요해
날 웃게 할 사람은 너였어
I need you girl, I need your energy

Lend me some energy
혼자는 다시 일어날 자신이 없어
Reach out your hands to me
내게 줘 내가 계속 걸어갈 의미
이 터널의 끝이 어딘지는
나 역시 모르지만 내 손 놓지는 마
Please be my guiding light
너 없인 내가 삶을 살아갈 의미가 없어

I'm out of energy
무너지고 있는 나를 can′t you see?
세상의 모든 짐이 나의 어깨 위
여기에서 날 눌러 I'm falling, falling, falling

I need your energy
움직일 수가 없어 please, give your hands to me
숨을 쉴 수 없어 now I′m on my knees
Hold me, hold me, please

I just can't go on by myself, no
내 힘이 되어줘 공기가 되어줘
무너지는 내게 에너지가 되어줘
Please, help me get up again
들리니 내 목소리가
Please won′t you hold me now




Oh (Oh-oh)
Hold me, hold me, please

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Energy" by Jung Yong-Hwa talks about feeling helpless and hopeless while dealing with life's struggles. It starts with the singer asking if anyone sees him falling and describes going to a nearby cafe after waking up. He meets people and greets them but feels that nothing has changed. He tries to find a reason for his lack of energy, but he can't. The chorus explores the singer's exhaustion and how he feels everything is falling apart. He requests someone to lend him some energy and hold onto him, so he does not lose himself. The second verse talks about how the singer used to have too many aspirations and ambitions. Now, he feels he only needs one person in his life, and that is whoever he is addressing in the verse. He says he needs her to be able to laugh and live. The bridge emphasizes how lost he is and genuinely needs someone to guide him. The song ends once again with the chorus, emphasizing the need for someone to hold onto him.


The lyrics of "Energy" are a reflection of how hard life can feel sometimes, and how you don't always have the strength to carry on.
