Man wearing a snow jacket walking trough the snow

Lonely


요즘 나 왜 이렇게
외로운 걸까요
바뀐 거라곤 날씨뿐인데
나도 사람들한테 기대고 싶은데
막상 연락할 사람은 없네

나의 잘못인지
그땐 몰랐었지
그들의 연락과 관심 지나쳤지
그들도 이렇게
느껴졌을까
내가 둘러댄 핑계만 남았겠지

이기적인 건지
그때의 소중함을 알았다면
돌아갈 순 없지
오래된 상처가 깊어졌음을

너와 난 인연이 아니었나 봐요
아무리 상황 탓해봐도
돌려서 말했지만 결국 사실인 건
네가 날 덜 좋아했나 봐

나의 잘못인지
지금도 모르지
네가 말했던 게 정말 사실 인지
뭐가 어찌 됐건
결국 남은 건
핑계만 둘러댄 상처뿐인걸

이기적인 건지
그대가 소중함을 알았다면
돌아갈 순 없지
오래된 상처가 깊어졌음을

나의 잘못인걸
이제 알겠어
혼자 남겨진 게 점점 익숙해져
모두가 이렇게
외로운 걸까
마음이 마치 텅 빈 길거리 같아

이기적인 건지
그때의 소중함을 알았다면
돌아갈 순 없지
오래된 상처가 깊어졌음을


Is it my fault?
Didn't you know then?
I missed their contact and attention
Did they feel the same way?
I guess there were only excuses left behind

Why am I like this these days
Are you lonely?
The only thing that has changed is the weather
I also want to lean on someone
I have no one to contact with

Is it selfish? If I knew the importance of that time
I can't go back, that old wounds have deepened

I guess you and I didn't work well
No matter how much you blamе the situation
I said back and forth, but in the end, it's truе
I guess you liked me that much

Is it my fault?
Still don't know
Is what you said really true?
What happened?
In the end all that's left
It's just a wound made up of excuses


The song addresses the theme of loneliness and the realization of the significance of past relationships.

In the first verse, the lyrics express the current state of the singer, feeling lonely and questioning why they feel this way. They mention that only the weather has changed and express the desire to lean on and connect with someone, but find themselves without anyone to reach out to.

The pre-chorus reflects on the singer's past actions and suggests that they might have misunderstood the importance of certain relationships. They didn't realize the value of contact and attention from others and now feel that they may have missed out on meaningful connections. It seems that the singer might have made excuses and created barriers that have left them with unresolved emotional pain.

The chorus reflects the realization that had him understand the preciousness of those past relationships, they wouldn't be able to go back in time and heal the deepening wounds caused by loneliness.

The second verse explores the possibility that the connection between the singer and a particular person was never truly meant to be. They acknowledge that no matter how they analyze the situation, it seems that the other person didn't care for them as much, contributing to their sense of loneliness.

The bridge emphasizes that the singer recognizes their own faults and admits that they are gradually getting used to being left alone. They wonder if everyone feels this level of loneliness and compare their empty heart to a deserted street.

In the outro, the singer repeats the sentiment from the chorus, acknowledging that had they understood the preciousness of those past relationships, they wouldn't be able to go back and heal the deepening scars caused by the experienced loneliness.

Overall, Lonely explores the feelings of loneliness and regret that arise when one realizes the importance of past relationships. The lyrics reflect missed opportunities for connections and the lasting impact that loneliness can have on an individual.
