SHINee Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
보이지 않는 dark night
손에 닿은 걸 잡지만 그건 나를
죄어온 그것의 무게 미친 존재감 (감 감)
I'm out of my mind
바로 턱 밑 닿아 들이쉬는
네 그 숨과 (과 과) 들이쉰 그 숨과
독 뱀처럼 다가와 소리 없이 나를 물고 간
독 뱀처럼 다가와 소리 없이 나를 물고 간
깨물고 삼키고 녹이고 뱉고선
다시 날 괴롭히지 oh
Evil evil 마치 크리미널 in my mind
Evil evil 마치 터미네이터 온 듯한
Evil 이 밤을 견딜 수가 있을까
Evil evil 너무 잔인한 이 꿈을 놔
식은 땀이 더욱 재촉해버린 소름과 (과 과)
재촉한 소름과
마른 입술 더욱 갈라져버린 껍질과 그 껍질과 (과 과)
두 눈만 똑바로 떠 정신을 차려 위험해
두 눈만 똑바로 떠 정신을 차려 위험해
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oh 이미 퍼져버린 그것 내 피 속에
깨물고 삼키고 녹이고 뱉고선
다시 날 괴롭히지 oh
Evil evil 마치 크리미널 in my mind
Evil evil 마치 터미네이터 온 듯한
Evil evil 왜 날 찢어놔 망쳐가
Evil evil 너무 잔인한 이 꿈을 놔
검은 안개 끈적한 밤
아무것도 보이지 않는 dark night
손에 닿은 걸 잡지만 그건 나를
죄어온 그것의 무게 미친 존재감
이슈 없다면 사라져라 더는 널 볼 일 없도록
잠들지 않을 테니
What you gonna do, what you gonna
이슈 없다면 사라져라 더는 널 볼 일 없도록
잠들지 않을 테니 더는 죽어도
꺼내 줘 날 꺼내 줘 날 꺼내 줘 날 꺼내 줘 날
Evil evil 마치 크리미널 in my mind

The lyrics of SHINee's song "Evil" explore the feeling of being stuck in a dark, sinister dream, unable to escape from the weight of guilt that one is carrying. The imagery of a dark, murky night where nothing can be seen, sets the tone for the song. The singer is being harassed and tormented by an oppressive force, which is compared to a venomous snake that silently infiltrates and consumes its prey. The intensity of the situation is heightened by the short, repetitive phrases and the manic chanting of "Evil" throughout the song. The lyrics make us wonder whether the singer will be able to survive the nightmare and the possibility of being consumed by it.
The song touches on the themes of fear, anxiety, and self-doubt. The lyrics suggest that the evil that the singer is facing is not external, but internal, and that they are grappling with their own demons. The lyrics are a commentary on the human condition of feeling overwhelmed by negative emotions, and the fear of not being able to overcome them. The song also sends the message that we must be vigilant and stand up to whatever is oppressing us in order to overcome it. Overall, "Evil" is a deep, introspective song that takes the listener on a journey through the darker parts of the human psyche.

검은 안개 끈적한 밤 아무것도 보이지 않는 dark night
The dark night is covered with thick, black fog that makes it impossible to see anything.
손에 닿은 걸 잡지만 그건 나를 죄어온 그것의 무게 미친 존재감
I'm holding onto something I can touch, but it's really heavy and gives me an insane feeling of guilt.
I'm out of my mind
I am not mentally stable.
바로 턱 밑 닿아 들이쉬는 네 그 숨과 (과 과) 들이쉰 그 숨과 바로 손 끝 닿아 움츠러드는 심장과 그 심장과
I can feel your breath on my neck, as well as my own shaky breath and my heart beating fast enough to be felt in my fingertips.
독 뱀처럼 다가와 소리 없이 나를 물고 간 독 뱀처럼 다가와 소리 없이 나를 물고 간 깨물고 삼키고 녹이고 뱉고선 다시 날 괴롭히지 oh
Something is attacking me like a poisonous snake, silently biting, swallowing, dissolving and spitting me out, and then continuing to torment me relentlessly.

The evil thoughts in my mind are like a dangerous criminal or a terminator, and the night is so brutal that I wonder if I can survive it. I wish this cruel nightmare would go away.

My cold sweat is intensifying my already creeping chills, and my dry lips are cracking even more, as if forming a shell around me.

I need to wake up and be alert because it's dangerous to let my guard down. I feel like something already spread into my blood, biting, swallowing, dissolving and spitting me out, and then torturing me again.
이슈 없다면 사라져라 더는 널 볼 일 없도록 잠들지 않을 테니 What you gonna do, what you gonna 이슈 없다면 사라져라 더는 널 볼 일 없도록 잠들지 않을 테니 더는 죽어도
If there is nothing else to worry about, disappear and never show up again, because I won't fall asleep and will keep a close eye on you. What are you going to do? Even if you try to die, I won't let you.
꺼내 줘 날 꺼내 줘 날 꺼내 줘 날 꺼내 줘 날
Please rescue me, please rescue me, please rescue me, please rescue me.
악몽 나를 또 죄어오는 이 밤 dark night 난 잠들지 않아 uh
The nightmare is coming back to haunt me on this dark night, but I won't fall asleep, uh.
