The Safe Zone

We’re sitting on the same old porch

또 다른 꿈을 말하곤 하지 (Tto dareun kkumeul malhagon haji)

You’re laughing loud, mentioning his name

아무렇지 않게 내 어깨를 툭 (Amureochi anke nae eokkaereul tuk)

Never knowing my heart is starting a war.

I know your favorite colors, your favorite songs

너의 목소리 작은 떨림까지 (Neoye moksori jageun tteollimkkaji)

But I have to play blind, pretending it’s fine

나를 보는 네 눈빛은 그저 (Nareul boneun ne nunbicheun geujeo)

Like a brother, like a friend, that's where it ends.

Stuck in the middle, it’s a bittersweet line

한 걸음 다가가면 널 잃게 될까 봐 (Han georeum dagagamyeon neol ilke doelkka bwa)

Loving you in silence, guarding you with no name

너에게 난 그저 편안한 안식처 (Neoege nan geujeo pyeon-anhan ansikcheo)

Not the one you want to hold

우리는 그냥... friends.

Sometimes I want to pour it all out

웃음 뒤에 숨긴 나의 질투를 (Useum dwi-e sumgin naye jiltureul)

But if I’m honest, would you stay or run away?

Is a lie worth the price of having you stay?

말할 수 없는 비밀 (Malhal su eomneun bimir)

Stuck in the middle, it’s a bittersweet line

한 걸음 다가가면 널 잃게 될까 봐 (Han georeum dagagamyeon neol ilke doelkka bwa)

Loving you in silence, guarding you with no name

너에게 난 그저 편안한 안식처 (Neoege nan geujeo pyeon-anhan ansikcheo)

Not the one you want to hold

Let it be this way, I’ll take the pain

네 곁에 머물 수만 있다면 (Ne gyeote meomul suman itdamyeon)

I'll be okay...

As your best friend.

(좋은 친구로...)
