first of all: THE INTROOOOO THE BOING BOIN SOUND IS GONE 😭😭
262
the lyrics..... they’re so heartbreaking but there’s this beauty within the pain
263
why does bts always try to make us cry with their Japanese singles??????
264
the last few lines are so so so painful, there’s such a powerful aftertaste after the song ends
265
“the you that surfaces in my mind
appears just so, so vivid
as if you’re right there
but as I reach out my hand
you disappear, just like that”
266
the last word, 消えてしまう has a very painful connotation that can’t be felt with just the words “you disappear”, it’s displaying this sadness bc of your inability to control the disappearance
267
joon’s part:
decaying to the point where sunlight and water can’t be absorbed
the wound on my heart gets sealed by a rootless, leafless vow
the 2 glass cups, placed side by side
never fulfilling their role, just eternally standing there
from when you last touched them
268
“from all the memories stored in my heart” part: it’s more of like “from all the memories that piled up mindlessly, I only picked up and connected the ones of you”
I like how there’s a lot of movement portrayed here, with the memories “falling” first and then being “picked up”
269
and then it goes
“gazing at them (the memories) projected across the room, I feel you as a pain swells inside me”
here the narrator is trying to reassure them of “your” existence (in the present) as they longingly recall their memories with you, which is why it says “feel” you
270
also... “the fragrance I smell” part, they actually say 嗅いでしまった in jpn, which feels more of like something you didn’t desire but now that you smelled it, you’re left with the consequences of longing for them even more
271
WAIT ALREADY?!?!????? it usually takes a day for us to reach the top bc of the digimons but omg it’s amazing that we got #1 so fast twitter.com/btschartdata/s…
272
hoseok’s part:
doesn’t matter if you’re right or not
I just wanted for you to stay laughing, as the overwhelmingly kind person you were
but even so...
• there’s an emphasis on the “kind” part, they’re described as someone who’s way too kind
273
• also the “even so”, the subtitles just say “but” but the line makes you visualize the present it led up to, and it’s sung with a tone of regret
274
“if you could measure the amount of tears
it did take this long but
I finally (caught up) and made it by your side
I found you”
