BLACKPINK “Playing With Fire” Lyrics

Hangul

우리 엄만 매일 내게 말했어
언제나 남자 조심하라고
사랑은 마치 불장난 같아서
다치니까 Eh

엄마 말이 꼭 맞을지도 몰라
널 보면 내 맘이 뜨겁게 달아올라
두려움보단 널 향한 끌림이
더 크니까 Eh

멈출 수 없는 이 떨림은
On and on and on
내 전부를 너란 세상에
다 던지고 싶어
Look at me look at me now
이렇게 넌 날 애태우고 있잖아
끌 수 없어
우리 사랑은 불장난

My love is on fire
Now burn baby burn
불장난
My love is on fire
So don’t play with me boy
불장난

Oh no 난 이미 멀리 와버렸는걸
어느새 이 모든 게 장난이 아닌 걸
사랑이란 빨간 불씨
불어라 바람 더 커져가는 불길
이게 약인지 독인지 우리 엄마도 몰라
내 맘 도둑인데 왜 경찰도 몰라
불 붙은 내 심장에 더 부어라 너란 기름
Kiss him will I diss him
I don’t know but I miss him
중독을 넘어선 이 사랑은 crack
내 심장의 색깔은 black

멈출 수 없는 이 떨림은
On and on and on
내 전부를 너란 불길 속으로
던지고 싶어
Look at me look at me now
이렇게 넌 날 애태우고 있잖아
끌 수 없어
우리 사랑은 불장난

My love is on fire
Now burn baby burn
불장난
My love is on fire
So don’t play with me boy
불장난

걷잡을 수가 없는 걸
너무나 빨리 퍼져 가는 이 불길
이런 날 멈추지 마
이 사랑이 오늘 밤을 태워버리게 Woo

Translation

My mom told me every day
To always be careful of guys
Because love is like playing with fire
I’ll get hurt

My mom might be right
Because when I see you, my heart gets hot
Because rather than fear
My attraction to you is bigger

I can’t stop this trembling
On and on and on
I wanna throw my all
Into your world
Look at me look at me now
You are burning me up like this
I can’t turn it off
Our love that’s like playing with fire

My love is on fire
Now burn baby burn
Playing with fire
My love is on fire
So don’t play with me boy
Playing with fire

Oh no, I’ve already come too far
Suddenly, none of this is a game anymore
Love is like red fire
Blow, wind, so the fire will grow
Is this medicine or poison? Not even my mom knows
A robber in my heart, why don’t the police know?
Pour out your oil in my burning heart
Kiss him will I diss him
I don’t know but I miss him
This is past addiction, this love is crack
The color of my heart is black

I can’t stop this trembling
On and on and on
I wanna throw my all
Into your fiery path
Look at me look at me now
You are burning me up like this
I can’t turn it off
Our love that’s like playing with fire

My love is on fire
Now burn baby burn
Playing with fire
My love is on fire
So don’t play with me boy
Playing with fire

I can’t control it
This fire path is spreading too quickly
Don’t stop me
So this love can burn up this night
