STRAY KIDS Lyrics

또 속아버린 아픔
이참에 날 또
가지고 놀아줘
Fake eyes open
또 속아버린 아픔
이참에 날 더
It's like bad red roses
향기에 미쳐 호흡이 가빠짐
아름다움에 가려진 짙고 두꺼운 가시
Don't care about it 알고 있잖아
베일에 싸인 눈동자
헷갈린다면 지금 이 순간을
즐겨 babe babe, don't test me, oh no
Babe babe, don't get me wrong
거짓은 안 해 감히 (감히)
의미 부여한 이 밤의 (이 밤의)
정답은 you can get me
오로지 you can get me
Whoo, woo, whoo, whoo
Yeah, make you feel my love la la la
지금 너 come and taste me now
Yeah, you better watch out
You're gonna like, ah
그래 난 속삭여 la la la la
너와 나 둘 사이의 거릴 좁혀
잠깐의 호흡과 맞닿아 true up
이 스윗한 공간에 빨라진 ah
이 스윗한 공간에 달궈진
Just look at me
Just look at me babe day and night
Don't make me bad make me bad
I'm addicted to you
이미 길들여진 내 맘을 자극해
Don't make me bad
Bad, addicted to you
시작해 버린 이상 내 게 아님 안 돼
Kiss me or leave me (kiss me)
어중간한 자리에 서고 싶지 않아
Kiss me or hate me (kiss me)
Soft한 이 상황 속 날 봐줘 babe
My eyes are gettin' too loose
Can't repeat tying up with this strain
Instead of runnin'
I'm gon' mess it all up this second
이 순간을 간직해 나아가고 있기에
푸른빛의 냉기가 도는 널
붉게 물들여 이 공간에서
So 자색의 합이 피어나는 flowers
이 조명에 눈멀어 또 빠진다
곤란해 거짓말투성인 네 맘
너 없인 아무것도 안 잡힌다
Yeah, make you feel my love la la la
지금 너 come and taste me now
Yeah, you better watch out
You're gonna like, ah
그래 난 속삭여 la la la la
너와 나 둘 사이의 거릴 좁혀
잠깐의 호흡과 맞닿아 true up
이 스윗한 공간에 빨라진 ah
이 스윗한 공간에 달궈진
Just look at me
Just look at me babe day and night
Don't make me bad make me bad
I'm addicted to you
이미 길들여진 내 맘을 자극해
Don't make me bad
Bad, addicted to you
시작해 버린 이상 내게 아님 안 돼
The lyrics of STRAY KIDS' song "TASTE" convey a sense of enticement and addiction towards someone or something. The opening lines, "Fake eyes open, 또 속아버린 아픔 (Fake eyes open, deceived again by pain)," suggest a feeling of being deceived or hurt repeatedly but still wanting to be played with. The lyrics further express a fascination with the intoxicating fragrance of bad red roses, symbolizing the allure of something dangerous or forbidden. The singer acknowledges that they are aware of the deception but still want to indulge in the moment, asking to be tested but not misunderstood.
Throughout the song, there is a push and pull between the desire for connection and the fear of becoming too attached. The chorus emphasizes this conflict, with lines like "거짓은 안 해 감히 (감히), 의미 부여한 이 밤의 (이 밤의)," which translates to "I won't even lie, this night with assigned meaning," implying that the singer is aware of the falsehoods but still seeks meaning and intimacy. The lyrics also mention the need to narrow the distance between two people and the heightened sensations that come with it, indicating a longing for closeness and a desire to escape the mundane. However, there is also a warning not to start something that the singer cannot handle, suggesting a hesitation to fully give in to the addictive pull.
Overall, "TASTE" explores themes of deception, addiction, and the irresistible allure of something dangerous or forbidden. The lyrics convey a longing for connection, even in the face of potential pain and deception, but also a cautiousness about becoming too entangled in a situation.
