A fast read before the full lyric

A collaboration that layers Korean and English lyrics over a moody track about love's fading colors.

The lyric keeps circling the same few colors, black, gold, red, white, as if trying to find one that still holds its shine.

What sticks is how plain the admission feels: 'But I know I can't go back to you.' No flourish, just the end of the argument.

Editor's note

G-Dragon's Black, featuring Sky Ferreira

A collaboration that layers Korean and English lyrics over a moody track about love's fading colors.

Someday, when it all goes black I might want it all back

The lyric keeps circling the same few colors, black, gold, red, white, as if trying to find one that still holds its shine. None of them do. What sticks is how plain the admission feels: 'But I know I can't go back to you.' No flourish, just the end of the argument.

The Korean line 'Nae simjangui saekkkareun black', 'the color of my heart is black', doesn't feel like a metaphor so much as a flat statement of fact. It's the kind of line you'd say when you're too tired for drama, just naming the thing that's happened. Later, when he sings 'Someday, when it all goes black / I might want it all back,' the English echoes that resignation, admitting the wish even while knowing it's useless.

It's the 'might' that does the work, not a promise, not even a sure desire, just the faint possibility of regret once everything's gone dark.

Sky Ferreira's verse, 'You're smile out under the Sun / But I'm always on the run,' hangs there like a Polaroid of a better day, slightly out of reach.

Nae simjangui saekkkareun black

Sikeomeoke tabeoryeo just like that

Teumman namyeon yurireul kkaebusugo

Piga nan soneul bogo nan wae ireolkka wae

Ne misoneun bitnaneun gold

Hajiman maltuneun feel so cold

Galsurok nal neomu darmaga

Gakkeumssigeun karmaga dwijjotneun geot gata

Sarangui bonmyeongeun bunmyeonghi jeungo

Huimangeun silmanggwa jeolmangui bumo

Eoneusae nae eolgure deuriwojin geurimjaga

Neoran bicheseo saenggin geol mollasseulkka

Neowa nae saie siganeun meomchun ji orae

Eonjena gotongui wonineun ohae

Hagiya nado nal moreuneunde

Nega nal arajugil baraneun geot geu jachega ohae

If you ask me what happiness is

When this life is done

Maybe when this love is gone

If you ask me what happiness is

You're smile out under the Sun

But I'm always on the run

Uulhan nae sesangui saekkkareun black

Cheoeumgwa kkeuteun byeonhae heukgwa baek

Saramiran gansahae gakkeum heotdoen mangsange deureo

Jeongmal nan wae ireolkka wae

Galsurok dulmanui eoneoga

Seoro gajin colorga an matneun geot gata

Sarangui bonmyeongeun bunmyeonghi jeungo

Huimangeun silmanggwa jeolmangui bumo

Eoneusae nae eolgure deuriwojin geurimjaga

Neoran bicheseo saenggin geol mollasseulkka

Neoreul mannago nameun geon kkeut eomneun gonoe

Nalmada siryeongwa siheomui yeonsok gogae

Ijen ibyeoreul noraehae nege gohae

Igeon nae majimak gohae

If you ask me what happiness is

When this life is done

Maybe when this love is gone

If you ask me what happiness is

You're smile out under the Sun

But I'm always on the run

Someday, when it all goes black

I might want it all back

But I know I can't go back to you

Someday, when it all goes black

I might want it all back

But I know I can't go back to you

Na doragalge naega watdeon geu gillo black

Neowa naega tteugeowotdeon geu yeoreumeun it's been to long

Na doragalge naega watdeon geu gillo black

Neowa naega tteugeowotdeon geu yeoreumeun it's been to long
