*Eng Trans.*


It was hard, wasn’t it? Dating a guy like me
Because I didn’t do anything good for you
I don’t have the confidence to hold onto you anymore
But why are you holding my hand even tighter?

A bad guy who never knew your heart
that’s me
A good-for-nothing guy
who never said he loved you – that’s me
Before I change my mind, before I hold onto you,
Please go on your way without looking back

A guy like me, a guy like me
Don’t even think about dating a guy like me again
A guy like me, a guy like me – no
A guy like me, a guy like me
A guy who doesn’t deserve to love you
A guy like me

Until when are you gonna be like this?
When I tell you to go, please go
Before I get any angrier, stop crying
Why are you acting like a little child?

A bad guy who never knew your heart
that’s me
A good-for-nothing guy
who never said he loved you – that’s me
Before I change my mind, before I hold onto you,
Please go on your way without looking back

A guy like me, a guy like me
Don’t even think about dating a guy like me again
A guy like me, a guy like me – no
A guy like me, a guy like me
A guy who doesn’t deserve to love you
A guy like me

I don’t like you, I don’t need you
I hate you, I regret it now
Please tell me, tell me those things
Trample on me and leave me
As if you want me to see

You just need to go without saying anything
It’s easy to forget someone like me
I’m selfish and I didn’t know how you felt at all
So forget me and turn away and go on your way
How can I speak badly about you? How can I blame you?
How can I forget you?
How? Really, how can I?

A guy like me, a guy like me
Don’t even think about dating a guy like me again
A guy like me, a guy like me – no
A guy like me, a guy like me
A guy who doesn’t deserve to love you
A guy like me

*English Translation*


[JinYoung] On my way back from leaving you
[Sandeul] I’ll forget you, I’ll erase you, my burnt and blackened love

[JinYoung] Don’t make that face
This is my last conversation with you
Don’t be disappointed
Yes, don’t meet a guy like me now
I’ll be on my way first

[Sandeul] I’m getting farther away from you
You’re disappearing
Don’t easily forget me
Because it’ll hurt too much

[CNU] I’m walking on these streets without you
I’m walking on these streets without you

[JinYoung] On my way back from leaving you
I’ll forget you, I’ll erase you, my burnt and blackened love

[Baro] I guess love is leaving
It rides the wind and flies far away
I guess everything is changing
I guess you’re changing just like me
Even though it hurts, I’m relieved
Even this feeling is too burdensome to me. You’re looking at me nervously, like a whining child. Your tears are holding onto my shoulders that have turned away
Saying goodbye is sweet
But I’m okay though it hurts
I take my foot out from your shadow
I take off our ring too

[Gongchan] I’m getting farther away from you
You’re disappearing
Don’t hate me
[CNU] Because it’ll hurt too much baby

[Sandeul] I’m walking on these streets without you
I’m walking on these streets without you

[Baro] It hurts
I miss you so much
I’m going, I’m going, I’m leaving
[Sandeul] You probably don’t know yet, you probably can’t know yet
I look at you, who is struggling…

[JinYoung] Because it hurts more for me
I’m letting you go like this
[Gongchan] Tears are flowing because you and I
[Sandeul] We loved so much

[CNU] I’m walking on these streets without you
I’m walking on these streets without you
[JinYoung] I’m walking on these streets without you

[JinYoung] I’m walking on these streets without you
