Lyrics and translation
Original
Yeah.
Yo.
My story.
알고 보니.
Straight T.
Once again.
Come on. 달리면 달릴수록 멀어지는가 했었지.
끝에서 돌아봤더니 제자리였지. 착하면 착할수록 세상은 날 반기겠지.
착하면 바보더라. 이 세상은 역시 내가 설 자린 없지. 한없이 모자른 걸.
무지개 끝에서 비가 길을 못 찾는 걸. 왜? 난 아직 아이들의 꿈을 꾸는데. 갈수록 두렵지.
아침에 눈을 뜨는 게 무서운 게. 형제조차 믿을 수 없어. 약속은 새끼손가락만큼 쉽게도 꺾여. 참 부질없어.
없어도 있어도 병든 현실. 붙잡아 봤자 삶의 끝은 홀로 남은 병실.
태평양보다 깊은 사랑 알고 보니 얕더라. 남자의 자존심 수표 한 장보다 얇더라. 그 숲을 알고 보니. 그 늪을 알고 보니.
도망치듯 스쳐가는 세월에 손을 잡고 보니.
세상은 왜 이리 못된 거죠? 어쩌죠? 어디로 가야죠? 세상은 왜 이리 못된 거죠?
어쩌죠? 아무도 모르죠. 세상은 왜 이리 못된 거죠? 어쩌죠?
I don't know where to go.
세상은 왜 이리 못된 거죠? 왜 아무도 말해주지 못하죠? 막다른 길에 나를 들여놓은 어리던 날 보네.
마치 엊그제 같은데 매일 어제던 단숨에. 달려간다고 날 놓으라고 버티던 가슴에.
어느새 멍이 들어가는 게 저리며 아프네. 시간은 금이라 변할 순 없으리라. 그리 난 믿었어.
진실을 담았으니까. 허나 왜 달라. 모두가 뿌리를 잘라. 향기로만 판단하려 한다면 우린 곧 말라.
마치 어두운 감방 안에 쉬는 숨처럼. 아님 악몽이란 손에 땀을 쥐는 꿈처럼.
늘 편치 못해, 걷지 못해, 얻지 못해. 주위의 시선이란 묵은 때를 벗지 못해. 꿈을 그리며 사는 법.
눈을 가리고 사는 것. 원한다면 당연한 대가를 치른다는 것. 이제는 알아.
많이 배웠으니까. 꿈같던 현실이 내 눈물을 태웠으니까.
세상은 왜 이리 못된 거죠? 어쩌죠? 어디로 가야죠? 세상은 왜 이리 못된 거죠?
어쩌죠? 아무도 모르죠.
세상은 왜 이리 못된 거죠? 어쩌죠? I don't know where to go.
세상은 왜 이리 못된 거죠? 왜 아무도 말해주지 못하죠?
I'm on my way and I'm so lonely.
I can't stand this no more. No more. Give me your hand, so I can stand by myself.
By myself.
Need a shelter 'cause it's raining outside.
Lonely traveler, yes, sometimes I cry. Holla if you hear my sanity. I need somebody who's gonna stay with me.
세상은 왜 이리 못된 거죠?
어쩌죠? 어디로 가야죠? 어디로 가야죠? 세상은 왜 이리 못된 거죠? 왜?
아무도 모르죠. 아무도 모르죠. 세상은 왜 이리 못된 거죠? 왜?
I don't know where to go. In this motherfucker world. 세상은 왜 이리 못된 거죠?
왜 아무도 말해주지 못하죠?
I'm all alone.
English translation
Yeah.
Yo.
My story.
As it turns out.
Straight T.
Once again.
Come on. I thought the more I ran, the farther I got.
When I looked back from the end, it was still in the same place. The kinder I am, the more the world will welcome me.
If you're nice, you're stupid. There is no place for me in this world. It's infinitely inadequate.
The rain can't find its way at the end of the rainbow. why? I still dream of children. I'm getting more and more scared.
It's scary to open my eyes in the morning. I can't even trust my brother. Promises are broken as easily as the little finger. It's so useless.
The reality is sick even if you don't have it. Even if you hold on, the end of your life will be in a hospital room alone.
A love deeper than the Pacific Ocean turns out to be shallow. A man's pride was thinner than a check. I got to know the forest. I found out about that swamp.
I held hands as the years passed by as if I was running away.
Why is the world so mean? What should I do? Where should I go? Why is the world so mean?
What should I do? No one knows. Why is the world so mean? What should I do?
I don't know where to go.
Why is the world so mean? Why can't anyone tell me? I see my younger days leading me into a dead end.
It seems like it was just yesterday, but every day was yesterday at once. My heart was holding on to let me go, telling me to run.
Before I knew it, the bruise was starting to feel numb and painful. Time is gold and cannot be changed. So I believed it.
Because it contains the truth. But why is it different? Everyone cut off the roots. If we try to judge only by scent, we will soon dry out.
Like breathing in a dark cell. Or a nightmare, like a dream that makes you sweat.
I'm not always comfortable, I can't walk, I can't get anything. I can't get rid of the old stains of the gaze of those around me. How to live your dreams.
Living blindfolded. If you want it, you have to pay a reasonable price. Now I know.
Because I learned a lot. Because the dream-like reality burned my tears.
Why is the world so mean? What should I do? Where should I go? Why is the world so mean?
What should I do? No one knows.
Why is the world so mean? What should I do? I don't know where to go.
Why is the world so mean? Why can't anyone tell me?
I'm on my way and I'm so lonely.
I can't stand this no more. No more. Give me your hand, so I can stand by myself.
By myself.
Need a shelter 'cause it's raining outside.
Lonely traveler, yes, sometimes I cry. Holla if you hear my sanity. I need somebody who's gonna stay with me.
Why is the world so mean?
What should I do? Where should I go? Where should I go? Why is the world so mean? why?
No one knows. No one knows. Why is the world so mean? why?
I don't know where to go. In this motherfucker world. Why is the world so mean?
Why can't anyone tell me?
I'm all alone.
