NO MERCY
miss A - Topic Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

모른 척 넘어가주니
내가 다 속는 줄로만 아는지
웬만하면 다 져주니
내가 착한 줄로만 아는지

못 견디겠어 더는 안 돼
원래 나 답게 돌아 갈래
사랑해도 사랑 받지 못하는 건

이젠 싫어 no no no

No mercy 저 멀리 사라져 줄래
너 없이 더 멋지게 살 수 있게
No mercy no mercy

매일 널 바라 봐주니
내 눈은 너만 보는 줄 아는지
너의 말에 웃어주니
나는 화도 못 내는 줄 아는지

참을 수 없어 그만 할래
니 방식대로 나는 못해
잘 해줘도 잘 못해주는
니가 정말 싫어

No mercy 이렇게는 못살아
No mercy 생각나도 찾지마

넌 아마도 이런 날 이해 못하겠지만
난 또 상처만 받을 걸 알기에 good bye

No mercy 이렇게는 못살아
No mercy 생각나도 찾지마

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of miss A's song "No Mercy" delve into the feelings of betrayal and disappointment in a one-sided relationship. The singer expresses frustration at constantly being taken advantage of and misunderstood, as they are perceived as naive and easy to deceive. They are tired of being treated as if they are always the one at fault and are longing to return to their true self, tired of not receiving the love and appreciation they deserve.

The chorus of the song, with the repeated phrase "No mercy," conveys a strong message of determination to break free from the toxic relationship and move on to live a more fulfilling life without the other person. The singer is resolved to distance themselves from the person causing them pain and believes that they can live more beautifully and confidently without them, showing a sense of empowerment and self-respect.

The second verse highlights the singer's efforts to placate and accommodate the other person constantly, even at the cost of their own happiness and principles. However, they reach a breaking point and decide to put an end to the mistreatment and manipulation they have endured. Despite trying their best to meet the other person's expectations, they feel unappreciated and unloved, leading to feelings of resentment and refusal to continue in the same pattern.

The closing lines of the song indicate a sense of resignation and acceptance that the other person may never truly understand or appreciate the singer's feelings. The singer acknowledges that they are likely to continue being hurt in the same way if they stay in the relationship, ultimately choosing to say goodbye and move forward without mercy or regret. The poignant and introspective lyrics convey a sentiment of self-preservation and empowerment, as the singer seeks to break free from a toxic dynamic and prioritize their own well-being.
