EXO “Crazy” Lyrics

Hangul

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah (Oh, oh, okay)
Oh, oh, oh (Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, oh, yeah)
Oh, oh, oh

I’m standing ten toes down in the game
이기고 지는 결과 따윈 관심 없는 play
나를 지나쳐간 pace, 홀린 듯이 옮겨 move
너의 수에 걸려 이미 나를 꿰뚫는 그 눈
애써봐도 숨이 차, 숨이 차
갇힌 것 같아 함정 속에
넌 놀리듯 groovin’ now, groovin’ now
나만 바빠, yeah, 이 놀이 속에

널 쫓는 난 길을 잃어 매일 밤
습관처럼 미쳐가
이건 완벽한 error, error, uh, yeah
오만한 착각을 한 죄일까
그 손짓과 시선 사이
널 못 이겨 난 never ever (I’ve been feeling like)

(Crazy, crazy, crazy) 나를 흩트려놔 up all night, uh
(Crazy, crazy, crazy)
(Crazy, crazy, crazy) Take a look, look, look at my life
(Crazy, crazy, crazy)

꼬이는 발 뭐에 홀린 듯한
매일 밤 속 쌓인 오답
숨마저 멈출 것만 같아
끝이 없는 nightmare
잔상만이 남아있는 감각
떠올려봐 흔적 같은 말
단서마저 없는 너
떨어져 난 깊은 곳으로

출구조차 없는 이건 덫일까
더 헤매도 없는 답
이건 완벽한 error, error, uh, yeah
결국 난 벗어나도 네 손 안
더 미쳐가 매 순간
널 못 이겨 난 never ever (I’ve been feeling like)

(Crazy, crazy, crazy) 나를 흩트려놔 up all night, uh
(Crazy, crazy, crazy)
(Crazy, crazy, crazy) Take a look, look, look at my life

이 고통에서 save me
널 부르고 있지
잔인한 넌 흔적 없이 사라지지
헤어날 수 없이
망가지고 있어
이대로 너에게 더 미쳐가

(Crazy, crazy, crazy) 나를 흩트려놔 up all night, uh
(Crazy, crazy, crazy)
(Crazy, crazy, crazy) Take a look, look, look at my life
(Crazy, crazy, crazy)
(Crazy, crazy, crazy) 너란 덫에서 난 갇혀버려
(Crazy, crazy, crazy)
(Crazy, crazy, crazy) Take a look, look, look at my life
(Crazy, crazy, crazy)

Translation

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah (Oh, oh, okay)
Oh, oh, oh (Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, oh, yeah)
Oh, oh, oh

I’m standing ten toes down in the game
I’m playing without caring about winning or losing
The pace that passed me by
I move as if hypnotized
Already caught in your trap
Those eyes pierce right through me

No matter how hard I try, I’m out of breath
Feels like I’m trapped inside a snare
You keep groovin’ like you’re teasing me now
I’m the only one rushing around in this game, yeah

Chasing after you, I lose my way every night
Going crazy out of habit
This is a perfect error, error, uh, yeah
Is it my fault for being so arrogantly mistaken?
Between your gestures and your gaze
I can never beat you, never ever
(I’ve been feeling like)

(Crazy, crazy, crazy)
You scatter me apart, keep me up all night, uh
(Crazy, crazy, crazy)
(Crazy, crazy, crazy)
Take a look, look, look at my life
(Crazy, crazy, crazy)

My tangled steps, like I’m under a spell
Wrong answers piling up every night
Feels like even my breathing might stop
An endless nightmare

Only afterimages remain in my senses
I recall words that felt like traces
You leave behind no clues at all
And I keep falling deeper down

Is this a trap with no escape?
Even if I wander more, there’s still no answer
This is a perfect error, error, uh, yeah
In the end, even if I escape
I’m still in the palm of your hand
Every moment I go crazier
I can never beat you, never ever
(I’ve been feeling like)

(Crazy, crazy, crazy)
You scatter me apart, keep me up all night, uh
(Crazy, crazy, crazy)
(Crazy, crazy, crazy)
Take a look, look, look at my life

Save me from this pain
I’m calling out for you
Cruel as you are, you disappear without a trace
I can’t break free
I’m falling apart
At this rate, I’m losing myself more and more to you

(Crazy, crazy, crazy)
You scatter me apart, keep me up all night, uh
(Crazy, crazy, crazy)
(Crazy, crazy, crazy)
Take a look, look, look at my life
(Crazy, crazy, crazy)
(Crazy, crazy, crazy)
I’m trapped inside the snare that is you
(Crazy, crazy, crazy)
(Crazy, crazy, crazy)
Take a look, look, look at my life
(Crazy, crazy, crazy)
