P.S.Y. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Wake me up 눈을 떠
Yeah wake me up
여긴 끝이 없는 터널
어둠 속 빛을 다 잃어버린
(Wake me up, wake me up)
날 찾아내야 해
한계를 뛰어넘어
이대로 멈출 순 없어
(Wake me up, wake me up) uh uh
Wake up, we've pressed for time
어느새 그 순수했던 애는 컸어
이젠 내가 불안한 사회에 주체를 깨워
새로운 나와 이야기를 나눠
내 삶의 값은 가치를 매길 수 없어
남과 바꿀 수 없는 life uh
우리의 현실이란 가마솥에 죄다
넣어삶은 고통이기에
내가 할 수 있는 건
미칠 듯 부르는 이 노래 ye
It may wake 매해 목표까지의 lane
You ain't be late
경주마처럼 뛰어 자신을 위해
내 안의 또 다른 날 깨워
꺼져있던 희미한 불빛
Wake me up 눈을 떠
Yeah wake me up
더 늦기 전, 날 일으켜
새로워진 내 심장 속 떨림
Wake me up 소리쳐
Yeah wake me up
어질러진 퍼즐 하나 둘씩 또 맞춰간 game
(Wake me up, wake me up)
지금의 날 믿어
Oh 나를 향해 던진
물음표 없는 그 질문들
(Wake me up, wake me up)
Viva la revolution, yeah
정신 바짝 차려 널 집어삼킨 착각
회색 빛깔 도시들에 탁한
공기와 차가워진 온기는
썩어빠진 뇌와 척추에 옮지
자각해 타락해버린 진실
분열된 주체 속의 껍질
Free, love, real, ill
내 안의 또 다른 날 깨워 꺼져있던 희미한 불빛
Wake me up 눈을 떠
Yeah wake me up
더 늦기 전, 날 일으켜
새로워진 내 심장 속 떨림
Wake me up 소리쳐
Yeah wake me up
Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo
Wake me up 눈을 떠
Yeah wake me up
Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo
Wake me up 소리쳐
Yeah wake me up
다시 살아나는 감각
눈 앞에 열린 이 길을 따라
(Wake me up, wake me up)
새로운 세상에
세상이 원했던 답은 절실함에 눈멀어
목소리를 내는 것 (나를 다 펼쳐내) 지체가 돼도 계속해 걸어
고민을 버려 그런 현실의 네게 수혜는 butter
Yeah wake me up
이젠 새로운 나를 펼쳐내 what
Ah ah 이 순간 내 모든걸 던져 숨겨왔던 진실을 찾아
Wake me up 눈을 떠 (wake me up)
Yeah wake me up
내 안의 영혼까지 전부 남김없이 다 불태워
Wake me up 다 깨워
Yeah wake me up
Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo (eh eh)
Wake me up 날 깨워
Yeah wake me up
Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo (eh eh)
Wake me up 날 깨워
Yeah wake me up
Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo
The lyrics of P.S.Y.’s song “Wake Me Up” revolve around the notion of self-discovery and awakening. The song starts with a call to wake up and ignite the faint light within one's inner self, as if something was dormant within the person. The metaphor of a never-ending tunnel in the dark, losing its light, contrasts with the idea of reaching beyond one’s limits and never stopping. The lyrics highlight the importance of self-actualization and finding one's own worth, with lines such as “my life’s value cannot be measured” and “a life that cannot be exchanged with anyone else.” The lyrics also touch on the theme of societal unrest, anxiety, and the growing pains of life, as the person navigates his or her own path, by using the metaphor of a “grey city” and the idea of waking up one's consciousness to the truth.
The chorus is a call to action, urging the listener to wake up before it’s too late and to find the new self that is waiting to emerge. The bridge is a call for a revolution, a change in mentality, and to awaken the self, one's true calling. The song ends with a powerful cry to wake up and set everything on fire, leading to the final realization of the true self.
The song's overall message is that life is a journey, and finding oneself is a necessary and vital step in that journey. It is important to awaken the self and reach beyond one's limits to live life to its fullest.
