CLOSE YOUR EYES “POSE” Lyrics

Hangul

Yeah, uh

Uno, dos, tres and pose
눈부시게 터지는 flashlight (Uh)
뛰는 my pulse, ba-boom
눈 깜짝할 새 변해, my style
Tight한 shirt 위 tie는 늘 deep blue
까맣게 뒤덮인 classic은 진부
단추들은 풀어, untie
Burning desire, 숨 막히게 tight
Ah, yeah, 온 세상이 다 mute
내던져 금세 다가오는 끝
I’m goin’ at my own pace, 이게 나다운 groove
Life goes on, 이 노을을 삼켜

이 순간을 salud
자유롭게, oh-ah
가까워진 숨
터질 듯해, too hot (Uh)

Uno, dos, tres and pose
눈부시게 터지는 flashlight (Uh)
뛰는 my pulse, ba-boom
눈 깜짝할 새 변해, my style
다른 하루완 달라
따라와 난 이 느낌을 알아
Click that, bomba, la bomba
Uno, dos and tres then pose, hi

Camera roll 준비하고서, 이제 찍어, three, four
그 아래엔 P.S. we back, ah, ha
자연스러워 이런 거 ah, ha
Yeah, 눈이 부셔 초저녁부터
분위기는 오르지 더 가빠진 호흡이, uh
이 다음은 모르지 uh, yeah, they’re around me, huh
I know you bounce with my tempo, get you wildin’, huh
I keep it bouncy, you know I keep it, keep it, keep it, keep it

이 순간을 salud
자유롭게, oh-ah
가까워진 숨
터질 듯해, too hot (Uh)

Uno, dos, tres and pose
눈부시게 터지는 flashlight (Uh)
뛰는 my pulse, ba-boom
눈 깜짝할 새 변해, my style
다른 하루완 달라
따라와 난 이 느낌을 알아
Click that, bomba, la bomba
Uno, dos and tres then pose, hi

All over, losing myself, 마지막엔
길 잃은 듯해 흩어진 silence
You got me put off my tie, give up my fame
이끌리는 대로 전부 풀어놔
감출 필요 없어
Ready to cross the line
보란 듯이 던져
Blow it all up tonight (Uh)

Uno, dos, tres and pose
눈부시게 터지는 flashlight (Uh)
뛰는 my pulse, ba-boom
눈 깜짝할 새 변해, my style

따라와 난 이 느낌을 알아
Click that, bomba, la bomba

Translation

Yeah, uh

One, two, three and pose
Blinding flashes bursting like a flashlight (Uh)
My pulse is racing, ba-boom
In the blink of an eye, my style changes
A tight shirt with a tie, always deep blue
All-black classic feels so overdone
Loosen up the buttons, untie
Burning desire, suffocatingly tight
Ah, yeah, the whole world goes mute
Throw it away, the end is coming fast
I’m goin’ at my own pace, this is my groove
Life goes on, swallow this sunset

This moment, salud
Feelin’ free, oh-ah
Breath getting close
About to explode, too hot (Uh)

One, two, three and pose
Blinding flashes bursting like a flashlight
My pulse is racing, ba-boom
In the blink of an eye, my style changes
Not like any other day
Follow me, yeah I know this feeling
Click that, bomba, la bomba
One, two and three then pose, hi

Camera roll ready, now we shoot, three, four
Caption reads, P.S. We back, ah, ha
Comes so natural, this kinda thing, ah, ha
Yeah, shining so bright from the early night
The vibe keeps rising higher, breath getting faster, uh
Don’t know what’s next, uh, yeah, they’re around me, huh
I know you bounce with my tempo, get you wildin’, huh
I keep it bouncy, you know I keep it, keep it, keep it, keep it

This moment, salud
Feelin’ free, oh-ah
Breath getting close
About to explode, too hot (Uh)

One, two, three and pose
Blinding flashes bursting like a flashlight (Uh)
My pulse is racing, ba-boom
In the blink of an eye, my style changes
Not like any other day
Follow me, yeah I know this feeling
Click that, bomba, la bomba
One, two and three then pose, hi

All over, losing myself, in the end
Feels like I’m lost, scattered silence
You got me put off my tie, give up my fame
Just go with the feeling, let it all go
No need to hide it
Ready to cross the line
Throw it out there, let ’em see
Blow it all up tonight (Uh)

One, two, three and pose
Blinding flashes bursting like a flashlight
My pulse is racing, ba-boom
In the blink of an eye, my style changes
Not like any other day
Follow me, yeah I know this feeling
Click that, bomba, la bomba
One, two and three then pose, hi

CLOSE YOUR EYES “POSE” Meaning

Close Your Eyes “POSE” (April 2026) is a confident, high-energy track about overcoming fear and fully embracing your true self. At its core, the song encourages listeners to stop overthinking and just “pose” not in a superficial way, but as a metaphor for owning who you are with confidence. It’s about stepping forward without being held back by doubt or the fear of judgment.

A major theme is authenticity. The lyrics emphasize showing your real self instead of hiding behind insecurity. This message is deeply tied to the members’ own experiences, especially moments of uncertainty from survival shows, where every stage could feel like a final chance. These experiences shape the song’s message of resilience and self-belief.

“POSE” also reflects a sense of emotional urgency acknowledging that endings can happen at any time, but choosing to live boldly in the present instead of being paralyzed by that fear.

Conceptually, the group’s “literature boy” image adds another layer, framing the song as a form of emotional storytelling, where performance becomes a way to express inner thoughts and identity.
