**Eric Nam:**

널 사랑은 하지만 조금 지친거야

상처를 주기가 너무 두려운거야

착한 게 아냐 날 위해 그런거야

아직도 널 사랑한다는 거짓말

넌 답을 원했지 시작부터

결말을 미리 본 영화처럼

부담스러웠지 넌 점점 더

빈 틈 없이 짜여진 스토리처럼

헤어지자 그 한마디가 잔인한 거겠지

입을 열어도 다시 삼키고 왜 못 뱉는거지

널 사랑은 하지만 조금 지친거야

상처를 주기가 너무 두려운거야

착한 게 아냐 날 위해 그런거야

아직도 널 사랑한다는 거짓말

하루에 몇 번씩 생각했지

나 없이 넌 어떻게 지낼지

지키지 못할 많은 약속들

이? 의미 없는 말들로 남겠지

헤어지자 그 한마디가 잔인한 거겠지

입을 열어도 다시 삼키고 왜 못 뱉는거지

널 사랑은 하지만 조금 지친거야

상처를 주기가 너무 두려운거야

착한 게 아냐 날 위해 그런거야

아직도 널 사랑한다는 거짓말

헤어지자는 그 한마디를 왜 못 뱉는거지

사랑했지만 이제 지친거야

Baby I need you to say something say something

너도 알잖아 이제 끝인거야

Baby I need you to say something say something

사랑한다는 거짓말

사랑한다는 거짓말 oh

**Eric Nam:**

I do love you but I’m a bit tired

I’m too scared to hurt you

I’m not being nice, I’m doing this for myself

This lie of saying I still love you

You wanted an answer from the start

Like already wanting to know the ending of a movie

So I felt pressured, more and more

Like a perfectly made-up story

Let’s break up, those words are so cruel

I open my mouth but I swallow it back in, why can’t I say it?

I do love you but I’m a bit tired

I’m too scared to hurt you

I’m not being nice, I’m doing this for myself

This lie of saying I still love you

I thought about this several times a day

How you would live without me

All the promises that won’t be kept

They’ll just remain as meaningless words

Let’s break up, those words are so cruel

I open my mouth but I swallow it back in, why can’t I say it?

I do love you but I’m a bit tired

I’m too scared to hurt you

I’m not being nice, I’m doing this for myself

This lie of saying I still love you

Why can’t I say, let’s break up

I loved you but now I’m tired

Baby I need you to say something say something

You know it’s over too

Baby I need you to say something say something
