Wonpil “Highs and Lows” Lyrics

Hangul

여기선 다 고쳐 주나요?
제가 좀 아프거든요
대체 이유가 뭘까요? Uh
나아지긴 할까요? Uh

짙어진 통증에
감각이 흐려져
붙잡을 수가 없어
터질 것 같아

I need you right now
Or stay, watch me die
널 잃어 버린 난
뭣도 아니잖아
살아 있다 해도
텅 빈 숨만 쉬고 있잖아
I’m not alright, oh, God
날 구해 줘

선생님 제가요
이상한 것 같아요
웃고 싶어도
자꾸 눈물이 나요
사랑이라고 하는 그건가요
아님 그저 미련일까요
저 이제 어쩌죠

바뀔 수 있다면
뭐든 해 볼 텐데
방법이 있다면
다 해 볼게요

I need you right now
Or stay, watch me die
널 잃어 버린 난
뭣도 아니잖아
살아 있다 해도
텅 빈 숨만 쉬고 있잖아
I’m not alright, oh, God

날 구해 줘 (날 구해 줘)
날 꺼내 줘 (날 꺼내 줘)
돌아와 줘, 더 이상 안 될 것 같아
난 여기까지인가 봐

이젠 못 버틸 것 같아

Translation

Can you fix everything here?
Because I’m hurting quite a bit.
What on earth could the reason be? Uh
Will I even get any better? Uh

In this deepening pain
My senses are blurring
I can’t hold on to anything
It feels like I’m going to burst.

I need you right now
Or stay, watch me die
Now that I’ve lost you,
I’m nothing at all.
Even if I’m technically alive,
I’m just breathing empty breaths.
I’m not alright, oh, God
Please save me.

Doctor, you see…
I think there’s something wrong with me.
Even when I want to smile,
The tears just keep coming.
Is this what they call “love”?
Or is it just lingering attachment?
What do I do now?

If I could change,
I’d try anything.
If there’s a way,
I’ll do it all.

I need you right now
Or stay, watch me die
Now that I’ve lost you,
I’m nothing at all.
Even if I’m technically alive,
I’m just breathing empty breaths.
I’m not alright, oh, God

Please save me (Save me)
Please pull me out (Pull me out)
Please come back, I don’t think I can take it anymore.
I guess this is as far as I go.

I don’t think I can hold on any longer.
