듣기 싫은 말
Trouble Maker Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

오늘만 눈 감아줘
매일 그랬던 것처럼 참아줘
니가 화낼 때마다
자꾸 그럴 때마다 정말
미안해 uh

자꾸 니가 내게 그럴 때마다
점점 넌 멀어지고 있단 걸 몰라

더 이상 슬픈 표정하며 울지 마
다신 이런 사랑은 정말 싫어

가장 듣기 싫은 말로
핑계를 대고 있어
너 같은 사람은 정말
더 이상 안되는 만나선 안되는
사랑해선 안될 사람인 걸

아직도 날 모르겠니
내가 얼마나 널 사랑하는지
정말 너 아니면 안돼
난 너 하나면 돼
다시 내게 (내게)
한 번만 기회를 주면

매번 똑같은 말로 날 속여와
그럴 때마다 내 가슴을 조여와
더 이상 우린 어울리지가 않아
다신 눈물 흘리고 싶진 않아 no

가장 듣기 싫은 말로
핑계를 대고 있어
너 같은 사람은 정말
더 이상 안되는 만나선 안되는
사랑해선 안될 사람인 걸

너를 잃고 싶진 않아
이 말밖엔 할 말이 없단 걸 알아
지금 너는 내가 가장
듣기 싫은 말을 또 하고 있어

가장 듣기 싫은 말로
핑계를 대고 있어
너 같은 사람은 정말

더 이상 안되는 만나선 안되는
사랑해선 안될 사람인 걸

Overall Meaning

The Trouble Maker's song "듣기 싫은 말" (literal translation: Words I Don't Want to Hear) deals with the feelings of regret and sadness after a break-up. The singer is asking their ex-partner to close their eyes and endure the pain of the separation, just like they did every day when they were a couple. The singer apologizes for making their ex angry and distant, and admits that they hate this kind of love, where they constantly hurt each other.

The lyrics also express the singer's frustration with their ex's excuses and lies. They believe that their ex is the kind of person that they shouldn't have fallen in love with, and that they are not meant to be together. They don't want to cry anymore, and they want a chance to rebuild their relationship, even though they know that their ex is probably speaking the "words they don't want to hear," by making excuses and blaming the situation for their relationship's failure.

Overall, "듣기 싫은 말" captures the raw emotions of a failed relationship, where both parties have made mistakes and inflicted pain on each other. The song is a reminder that love can be complicated and that the words we use can hurt more than we realize.
