SHINee Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
평화로운 표정 you don't know
막이 오르기 전 늘 분주해도
니 앞에만 서면 acting cool
은밀하게 지금 벌어지고 있는 일을
너는 모르게 아직 안 돼
적당한 때 그 순간을 노려 네가
까만 그림자가 밤으로 hey
밤으로 스며들듯이
의식 저편을 파고들어
네 안에 undercover
Ah 굳이 큰 액션은 필요 없는 scene
뭔가 느꼈다면 kind of love
조그만 속삭임 가끔은 그게 더
강렬한 법일 테니 I want more
은밀하게 지금 벌어지고 있는 일을
너는 모르게 아직 안 돼
적당한 때 니가 감당할 수 없을 만큼 그렇게 원해야 돼 oh
까만 그림자가 밤으로 hey
밤으로 스며들듯이
의식 저편을 파고들어
네 안에 undercover
(Oh) 저 거울 속 넌 어느 틈에 나와 같애
그 하모니는 너와 나의 노래
아직은 undercover (undercover)
하지만 곧 알아채게 될 걸
은밀하게 지금 벌어지고 있는 일을
너는 모르게 아직 안 돼
적당한 때 그 순간을 노려 니가
눈치챘을 땐 늦어있게 (no way girl)
나는 흘러 들어 네게로 (yeah)
네게로 스며들듯이 (스며들듯이)
너의 빈 곳을 파고들어 (네 맘에)
네 맘에 undercover (cover)
까만 그림자가 밤으로 (밤으로) hey
밤으로 스며들듯이 (밤으로 스며들듯이)
의식 저편을 파고들어 (파고들어)
네 안에 undercover
Undercover
낯선 내가 보여?
The lyrics to SHINee's song "Undercover" talk about being undercover in a relationship and hiding one's true feelings and intentions. The song portrays a sense of secrecy and mystery, where the singer puts on a calm and peaceful façade in front of their partner, even though there may be a lot happening behind the scenes. They mention wanting to maintain the element of surprise and make their partner unaware of what is truly happening. The lyrics also suggest that sometimes subtle gestures and whispers can have a stronger impact and convey more intense emotions, and the singer desires more of these intense moments in their relationship. However, they acknowledge that eventually, their partner will realize their true intentions and identity, even though they try to maintain their undercover persona.
