ENHYPEN “Knife” Lyrics

Hangul

What’s behind your back?
It’s a, it’s a knife

It’s a knife 서슬 퍼런 칼날 위에서
It’s a knife 우린 영화 같은 춤을 춰
It’s a knife 마치 Clyde and Bonnie, makin’ love
It’s a knife 주사위를 굴려 now we roll

It’s a knife, knife, knife, knife (it’s a knife)
Knife, knife, knife, now we roll
It’s a knife, knife, knife, knife (it’s a knife)
Knife, knife, knife, knife

Yeah 비껴가 버렸지 once or twice
시도는 좋았지만 felt too light
쫓아봐, 우린 머리 위 satellite
덤벼봤자 칼은 허공에다 slice

너희들은 자꾸 분해서
주먹 쥐고 땅에 screamin’ (ah-ah-ah-ah)
손에 쥔 패 너무 뻔해서
무너지지 what you schemin’ (mm-mm-mm-mm)

It’s a knife 서슬 퍼런 칼날 위에서
It’s a knife 우린 영화 같은 춤을 춰
It’s a knife 마치 Clyde and Bonnie, makin’ love
It’s a knife 주사위를 굴려 now we roll

It’s a knife, knife, knife, knife (it’s a knife)
Knife, knife, knife, now we roll
It’s a knife, knife, knife, knife (it’s a knife)
Knife, knife, knife, knife

나는 반갑지, 너희의 귀여운 도발이
가뿐하게 지켜, 나의 사랑스러운 honey
씩씩대는 콧바람 비참한 꼴이
웃겨, 썩은 미소 너무 phony

너희들은 자꾸 분해서
주먹 쥐고 땅에 screamin’ (ah-ah-ah-ah)
손에 쥔 패 너무 뻔해서
무너지지 what you schemin’ (mm-mm-mm-mm)

It’s a knife 서슬 퍼런 칼날 위에서
It’s a knife 우린 영화 같은 춤을 춰
It’s a knife 마치 Clyde and Bonnie, makin’ love
It’s a knife 주사위를 굴려 now we roll

It’s a knife, knife, knife, knife (it’s a knife)
Knife, knife, knife, now we roll
It’s a knife, knife, knife, knife (it’s a knife)
Knife, knife, knife, knife (ooh)

It’s a knife
(Ooh)
It’s a knife

Translation

What’s behind your back?
It’s a, it’s a knife

(It’s a knife) On the edge of a deadly razor-sharp blade
(It’s a knife) We’re dancing like we’re in a movie
(I-I-It’s a knife) Like Clyde and Bonnie, makin’ love
(It’s a knife) Throw the dice, now we roll
It’s a knife, knife, knife, knife, it’s a knife (It’s a knife)
Knife, knife, knife, now we roll
It’s a knife, knife, knife, knife (It’s a knife)
Knife, knife, knife, knife

Yeah, it just missed once or twice
Nice try, but it felt too lite
Chase us, we’re miles above like a satellite
You can try but you’ll only hit air with your slice
I can see you’re all frustrated
Pounding the ground and screamin’ (Ah-ah)
It’s obvious what cards you’re holdin’
So much for what you scheming (Mm)

(It’s a knife) On the edge of a deadly razor-sharp blade
(It’s a knife) We’re dancing like we’re in a movie
(It’s a knife) Like Clyde and Bonnie, makin’ love
(I-I-It’s a knife) Throw the dice, now we roll
It’s a knife, knife, knife, knife (It’s a knife)
Knife, knife, knife, now we roll
It’s a knife, knife, knife, knife (It’s a knife)
Knife, knife, knife, knife

You’re welcome to try and provoke me, it’s cute
Easy as pie protecting my sweet honey
It’s funny how worked up you get, it’s pathetic
And your rotten smile’s so phony
I can see you’re all frustrated
Pounding the ground and screamin’ (Ah-ah)
It’s obvious what cards you’re holdin’
So much for what you scheming (Mm-mm)

(It’s a knife) On the edge of a deadly razor-sharp blade
(It’s a knife) We’re dancing like we’re in a movie
(It’s a knife) Like Clyde and Bonnie, makin’ love
(It’s a knife) Throw the dice, now we roll
It’s a knife, knife, knife, knife (It’s a knife)
Knife, knife, knife, now we roll
It’s a knife, knife, knife, knife (It’s a knife)
Knife, knife, knife, knife (Ooh-ooh)

It’s a knife
It’s a knife

ENHYPEN “Knife” Meaning

ENHYPEN’s “Knife” is a hip-hop track that continues the group’s vampire-inspired narrative, symbolizing the dangerous and intense nature of forbidden love. In the song, the knife acts as a central metaphor representing both protection and threat, reflecting the members’ identity as “fugitive vampires” navigating a world filled with danger and taboo. The lyrics portray a determination to defend their love and survive despite the risks surrounding them.

The imagery of a knife also highlights the duality of love and pain. Just as a blade can both protect and wound, the emotions described in the song balance vulnerability with strength. This tension reinforces the darker atmosphere of the track, where passion and danger coexist within the group’s storyline.

Musically, “Knife” features trap beats and sharp, metallic synth sounds that create a cold and edgy mood, matching the “razor-sharp” theme of the lyrics. Co-written by Gaeko of Dynamic Duo, the song emphasizes confidence and intensity while contributing to the larger narrative of ENHYPEN’s THE SIN series, where themes of identity, temptation, and survival continue to unfold.
