Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mer
Floating, her words
Melted, she said
I long for that

We met
Followed the map
Looked for the gold
I long for you

Even if the reasons change
It's never gonna freeze again
Even if the matters change
We're all gonna remain the same
Even if we face the end
Thoughts are gonna stay as cells, though
All that is what I want
All that is what I want

Across another river
Reached the ocean just before sunset
Bombing started with a roar
Yet we're unfazed, we're unamazed
We're staying calm and chasing
Other details, not that easy though
All that is what I want
All that is what I want

Eh, eh eh, yeah
Eh eh eh eh eh

Mer
One for myself
One for the wish
I long for you

We met
One is for you
One for the gold
I long for that

Even if the reasons change
It's never gonna freeze again
Even if the matters change
We're all gonna remain the same
Even if we face the end
Thoughts are gonna stay as cells, though
All that is what I want
All that is what I want

Across another river
Reached the ocean just before sunset
Bombing started with a roar
Yet we're unfazed, we're unamazed
We're staying calm and chasing
Other details, not that easy though
All that is what I want
All that is what I want

Eh, eh eh, yeah
Eh eh




Eh, eh eh, yeah
Eh eh, eh eh

Overall Meaning

The song "Mer" by Hyukoh (혁오) is a beautifully poetic representation of the transient nature of life and the desire for something beyond it. The lyrics speak of a person remembering a lover, longing for them and the moments they shared together. The imagery used in the lyrics is vivid and powerful- floating words and melted memories, chasing details across rivers and reaching the ocean at sunset. Despite everything changing, both internally and externally, the desire for that person and those moments remains ever-present- 'All that is what I want.'


The song also touches on the idea of impermanence, with the lines 'Even if the reasons change, it's never gonna freeze again' and 'Thoughts are gonna stay as cells, though.' This suggests that despite life's fleeting and constantly changing nature, the emotions and memories we hold onto remain with us forever.


Overall, "Mer" is a hauntingly beautiful and introspective song that captures the essence of human longing, the passage of time, and the constant search for meaning in our lives.

Mer

바다

floating, her words

띄우면서, 그녀의 말들을

melted, she said

녹아내리네, 그녀가 말했어

I long for that

그게 그리워



We met

우리는 만났지

followed the map

그 지도를 따라 갔어

looked for the gold

황금을 찾아다녔지

I long for you

네가 그리워



Even if the reasons change

이유들이 바뀔지라도

it's never gonna freeze again

절대 다시는 얼어붙지 않을 거야

even if the matters change

문제들이 바뀔지라도

we're all gonna remain the same

우린 모두 그대로 있을 거야

even if we face the end

우리가 끝을 마주하더라도

thoughts are gonna stay as cells, though

그렇지만, 생각들은 세포들처럼 남아있을 거야

all that is what I want

그게 내가 원하는 전부야

all that is what I want

그게 내가 원하는 전부야



Across another river

또 다른 강을 가로질러

reached the ocean just before sunset

해가 지기 직전에 대양에 도착 했어

bombing started with a roar

굉음과 함께 시작되는 폭격

yet we're unfazed, we're unamazed

그래도 우린 동요하지 않고, 우리 놀라지 않아

we're staying calm and chasing

우린 고요하게 남아있고 쫓아가

other details, not that easy though

다른 디테일들을, 그렇게 쉽지는 않지만

all that is what I want

그게 내가 원하는 전부야

all that is what I want

그게 내가 원하는 전부야



Mer

바다

one for myself

한번은 나 자신을 위해

one for the wish

한번은 그 소원을 위해

I long for you

네가 그리워



We met

우리는 만났지

one is for you

한번은 너를 위해

one for the gold

한번은 그 황금을 위해

I long for that

그게 그리워



Even if the reasons change

이유들이 바뀔지라도

it's never gonna freeze again

절대 다시는 얼어붙지 않을 거야

even if the matters change

제 생각엔 한국인들이 앨범에서 유명한 곡이나 타이틀 곡에 가려진 보석같은 곡들을 잘 찾지 못하는 편인 것 같아요

@u0ne846

공감합니다.
자신의 취향보단 남들의 유행, 기준에 맞춰 사는 경향이 큰 듯 하네요.

@straight_down

정말 속이 후련해지는 말이네요

@user-ct7oq1tu7w

요즘 시대엔 앨범을 잘 사지 않으니까요

@1231237914
