J Monsta X
Just give me a spotlight
Turn it down now
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh
Turn it down now
Eh, eh, eh, let's go

Eh 静寂 切り裂く ジャックナイフ (ジャックナイフ)
みたいに響かす パンチライン (パンチライン)
俺以外全員場違い 感じたいなら

Choose me 間違いない
君を奪いに 闇夜の night flight
仮面で隠した影に潜んだ flip side
見透かすその眼 独り占めしたくて
受けとめる rain of pain

ため息に揺れる心 (yeah)
"さみしい" と "好き" って似てるから (you know)
二度とこの手 離さないで (oh)
涙ごと僕が抱きしめるよ

迷わず光射す方へ (lights on)
Spotlight spotlight
その瞳 僕の方へ (lights on) 見つめ返して
輝けるのさ 君の愛で
君への愛で (eh, eh, eh, eh)

Oh, please bring me back, oh
Yo, just let me go, oh
眩しいほどに色濃く 影を落とす愛の陰陽

照らし出された君への想い
心の中 keep your eyes on me
奪い去りたい right now

上がっていく showcase のステージ
頂く歓声 視線 照明
助演なんて no way, no way
レッドカーペット 独走 駆けるスカーレット
I won't stop baby Cho Cho U は wavy
ためらわずに chop chop 手を取り
月明かりも振り払い 闇に紛れ踊りたい

もう誰にも邪魔させない
君だけにサインおくるから oh
人の群れをくぐり抜けて oh
バックステージから飛び出し
一緒に逃げよう

迷わず光射す方へ (lights on)
Spotlight spotlight
その瞳 僕の方へ (lights on) 見つめ返して
輝けるのさ 君の愛で (君の愛で)
君への愛で (eh, eh, eh, eh)

Oh, Please bring me back, oh
Yo, just let me go, oh
眩しいほどに色濃く 影を落とす愛の陰陽

照らし出された君への想い
心の中 Keep your eyes on me
奪い去る tonight

夜の闇が blind
煌めき出す time
重ねてくシルエットで
鼓動さえも聞こえそうなほど

逃しはしない どんな一瞬でさえ
刻み込んだ痛みは tattoo みたい
すべて捧げて love or die
君は僕の spotlight

迷わず光射す方へ (lights on)
Spotlight spotlight
その瞳 僕の方へ (lights on)

迷わず光射す方へ (lights on)
Spotlight spotlight
その瞳 僕の方へ (lights on) 見つめ返して
輝けるのさ (君の愛で)
君への愛で (eh, eh, eh, eh)

Oh, Please bring me back, oh
Yo, just let me go, oh
眩しいほどに色濃く 影を落とす愛の陰陽

照らし出された君への想い
心の中 keep your eyes on me
