All That Glitters
Kim Jae Joong Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Standing in silence
Got nothing to say
새로 갈 길 나에겐 없어
미랠 볼 수 없으니
방법을 찾아서 나가야 해

우린 어디에 있는지 몰라
환각에 빠져있을 뿐이야

외로운 채찍질이 됐고
이 쓰고 쓰디쓴 독에
날 데려다 놨냐고
오래 미치진 않고
오래 살고 싶다고

I saw it shining, you didn't explain
쉬었다 갈 틈 없이 떠나가
유머스럽게도 상처 주고 대답 없어

우린 어디에 있는지 몰라
환각에 맞서있을 뿐이야

외로운 채찍질이 됐고 이 쓰고 쓰디쓴
독에 날 데려다 놨냐고
오래 미쳐질진 oh oh oh whoa whoa
Oh oh oh whoa whoa

이 쓰고 쓰디쓴 독에 날 데려다 놨냐고
오래 미쳐질진 always beautiful (hey)
Always possible (hey)
싸워진 loser 너만 보일 magical
부셔 깨질 땐 언제쯤이 될까

새로운 대책은 찢었고
이 춥고 춥디추운 벌을 내려줬냐고

어디 질 줄 알까 oh oh oh whoa whoa
Oh oh oh whoa whoa
춥디추운 벌을 내려줬냐고
오래 미치진 않고
오래 살고 싶다고
쓰디쓴 독에 날 데려다 놨냐고




오래 미치진 않고
오래 살고 싶다고

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Kim Jae Joong's song "All That Glitters" describe a feeling of being lost and trapped in a never-ending cycle of pain and loneliness. The opening lines suggest a sense of hopelessness, as the singer stands in silence with nothing to say because he feels there is no new path for him to take. He cannot see a way out and must find a way to escape this cycle. The lyrics suggest that he is in a kind of hallucinatory state, possibly due to his emotional distress.


The chorus repeats the refrain "Did you lead me to this bitter poison?" and questions whether the singer's pain and loneliness are caused by someone else's actions or his own. The lines "We don't know where we are / We're just lost in our illusions" suggest a sense of disorientation and confusion, as if the singer cannot see a clear path forward. He describes himself as being whipped by his own loneliness and trapped in this bitter cycle.


The second half of the song repeats the refrain and adds a sense of desperation to the lyrics. Lines like "When will we break and fall apart?" and "Where should we go?" suggest a desire for freedom and a way out of this cycle of pain. Overall, "All That Glitters" is a powerful, emotional song that captures the sense of hopelessness and despair that can come with feeling lost and alone.
