NCT WISH “Melt Inside My Pocket” Lyrics
Hangul
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
고장났어 또 둘이 같이 있는 지금도
I’m losing control
한심해 아이스크림 처럼 얼어버려 나 (yeah)
우리 사이는 니 맘이
원하는 대로 가는 거잖아
Yo, I’m a, I’m a mess (I’m a mess)
Anything you asked, got me say yes
전하고 싶어, 감춰왔던 이 달콤함
Never perfect time
왠지 어색해 자꾸만 머뭇거려
시간은 자꾸만 가 주머니 속, ah, ah
숨겨놓아, ah, ah, 보이지 않잖아
건네지 못한 초콜렛 바로
지금 내 맘을 네게 전할 순간
Don’t wanna feel (ooh)
녹아버린 love inside my pocket
손을 너무 꼭 쥐고 있었나 봐
Girl, I’ll let you know, whoa
Take my hand 이젠 꺼내야 해 (말해 녹기 전)
Melt inside my pocket (pocket)
이럴 시간 없어 내 기회가 흘러가잖아
좀 더 용기 내 just step it up
I’m waiting, waiting for so long
I’ma get you, get you in my arms
(한 걸음 더) 말해 좋아한다고
(후횐 없어) 머릿속에 너 밖에 overload
Never perfect time
왠지 어색해 자꾸만 머뭇거려
Can’t get inside but know I can’t hide
나를 보는 네 두 눈엔 미소만
Don’t wanna be (a fool)
녹아버린 love inside my pocket
손을 너무 꼭 쥐고 있었나 봐
Girl, I’ll let you know, whoa
Take my hand 이젠 꺼내야 해 (말해 녹기 전)
Melt inside my pocket (pocket)
내 맘은 진짜야 소중한 걸 줄래
떨어뜨릴까봐 더 꼭 쥔 초콜렛
This love for real 내 맘을 받아줘
Before it melts
Don’t wanna be (a fool)
녹아버린 love inside my pocket (no)
손을 너무 꼭 쥐고 있었나봐
Girl, I’ll let you know
기다렸지 I’ll take my shot
This love’s too good to let it rot
Melt inside my pocket
I can’t stop it
Don’t wanna be (a fool)
녹아버린 love inside my pocket
손을 너무 꼭 쥐고 있었나봐
Girl, I’ll let you know
Take my hand 이젠 꺼내야 해 (말해 녹기 전)
Melt inside my pocket (pocket)

Translation
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
It’s broken again
Even now, while we’re together
I’m losing control
Pathetic, I’m frozen like ice cream (Yeah)
Our relationship moves
However your heart wants it to (Yo)
Yeah, I’m a, I’m a mess (I’m a mess)
Anything you asked, got me sayin’ yes (Yes)
I wanna tell you this sweetness I’ve been hiding
Never a perfect time
It feels awkward, I keep hesitating
Time keeps slipping by, in my pocket, ah, ah
I’ve kept it hiddеn, ah, ah, you can’t even see it
This is the momеnt I finally convey my heart to you, the chocolate I couldn’t take out
Don’t wanna be a fool
Love that melted inside my pocket
I must have been holding on to it too tightly
Gotta let you know, woah
Now I need to take it out (Say it before it melts)
Melt inside my pocket (Pocket)
There’s no time for this
My chance is slipping away
I need to be braver, step it up
I waited, waited for so long
I’ma get you, get you in my arms
(One more step) I’ll tell you I like you
(No regrets) But what do I do? My mind is in overload
Never a perfect time
It feels awkward, I keep hesitating
Kept it inside but I know I can’t hide
In your eyes that look at me, there’s only a smile
Don’t wanna be a fool
Love that melted inside my pocket
I must have been holding on to it too tightly
Gotta let you know, woah
Now I need to take it out (Say it before it melts)
Melt inside my pocket (Pocket)
My heart is real, I wanna give you something precious
I’m gripping the chocolate tight, afraid I might drop it
This love’s too real, please take my heart
Before it melts
Don’t wanna be a fool
Love that melted inside my pocket
I must have been holding on to it too tightly
Gotta let you know, woah
You waited, right? I’ll take my shot (Woah, woah-woah)
This love’s too good to let it rot (Woah)
Melt inside my pocket, I can’t stop it
Don’t wanna be a fool
Love that melted inside my pocket (No, girl)
I must have been holding on to it too tightly
Gotta let you know, woah
Now I need to take it out (Say it before it melts)
Melt inside my pocket (Pocket)
NCT WISH “Melt Inside My Pocket” Meaning
NCT WISH’s “Melt Inside My Pocket” captures the overwhelming and slightly chaotic feeling of being deeply in love, where emotions take over and control begins to slip away. The lyrics portray a narrator who feels almost helpless and vulnerable, admitting that their composure breaks down in front of the person they love.
A key image in the song is the “melting” metaphor, comparing these emotions to ice cream slowly melting. This symbolizes how the narrator’s rational self fades, leaving behind pure affection and devotion. Describing themselves as a “mess” reinforces the idea that love isn’t always neat or controlled it can be confusing, intense, and even a little embarrassing.
The lyrics also highlight a sense of devotion and surrender, with lines suggesting a willingness to follow the other person without hesitation. Rather than presenting love as balanced, the song leans into the idea of being completely captivated—where one person becomes the center of everything.
Through its playful yet emotional tone, “Melt Inside My Pocket” reflects a relatable side of young love: losing control, feeling vulnerable, and embracing the messy, all-consuming nature of falling for someone.
