Off and Away Lyrics
[Verse 1]
산산조각 난 현실
너의 흔적을 찾아 헤매
붙잡을 새도 없이
다시 찢겨져 날카롭게
Let that keep all my pain
고통마저도 황홀했지
Every time I knew that
비극 속에서 끝날 ending
[Pre-Chorus]
멈춰야만 한단 걸 알면서 원하고
나조차 몰랐던 나를 보네
마지막이라면 더 멀리 떠나 줘
내가 널 찾아낼 수도 없게
[Chorus]
Off and away
잡을 수 없게
Go far away
끝낼 수 있게
[Post-Chorus]
Right now, I’m so broken
All fade away
내 세상이 전부 사라지게
Right now, I’m so broken
All fade away
끝도 없이 영영 추락하게
[Verse 2]
너 없는 이 밤이
잔혹하게 날 조여
추억 속에 갇힌
나만 홀로 서 있어
너의 따스한 온기
너무 달콤한 눈빛
나를 집어삼켜
망치곤 하지
헛된 꿈인 걸 알지
눈을 감아도 다시
벗어날 수 없겠지
[Pre-Chorus]
되돌릴 수 없단 걸 알면서 붙잡고
또다시 무너진 날 마주해
사랑이 아니면 더 멀리 도망쳐
내 품에 가둬두지 못하게
[Chorus]
Off and away
잡을 수 없게
Go far away
끝낼 수 있게
[Post-Chorus]
Right now, I’m so broken
All fade away
내 세상이 전부 사라지게
Right now, I’m so broken
All fade away
끝도 없이 영영 추락하게
[Outro]
Off and away
But I won’t forget
Go far away
끝낼 수 있게
Off and away
But I won’t forget
Go far away
끝낼 수 있게
놓칠 수 있게
Off and Away Lyrics Meaning
[Verse 1]
KAI opens with a shattered reality, searching through the remnants of a broken connection. The imagery of pieces and sharp edges reflects the pain of clinging to a love that has already fallen apart. Even in suffering, there was a strange sense of beauty, suggesting how deeply the relationship was intertwined with his identity. Each painful moment was still better than the emptiness left behind, and he acknowledges that this story was destined to end in tragedy.
[Pre-Chorus]
Though KAI knows that letting go is necessary, he finds himself still yearning. He’s forced to look at a version of himself he didn’t recognize before—someone fragile and lost. If this is truly the end, he begs the other person to go so far that he won’t be able to find them again, expressing a desire to be free from the temptation of chasing memories that only hurt him.
[Chorus]
The chorus is both a plea and a release. “Off and away” symbolizes the emotional distance KAI seeks—not to be reached, not to be tempted, and to finally bring closure. His desire for the other to “go far away” is not rooted in resentment but in self-preservation, a final act of severing what’s left of a connection that no longer heals.
[Post-Chorus]
KAI confesses he is utterly broken, and as everything fades away, it feels like his entire world is crumbling. There is a bottomless descent into pain, with no resolution or escape. These lines speak to the depth of emotional devastation, where the absence of a loved one becomes a consuming void.
[Verse 2]
In the second verse, KAI captures the intensity of loneliness. The night feels suffocating without the warmth of his lover’s presence. He’s imprisoned in memories, haunted by the sweetness of moments that now torment him. Despite knowing it was all a fleeting dream, he can’t escape its grip—even closing his eyes offers no peace. The emotional entrapment is inescapable.
[Pre-Chorus]
This time, KAI clings to something he knows he can’t undo. He faces the wreckage of his attempts to hold on, repeatedly confronting his shattered self. If love no longer exists, he asks that it be gone for good—fleeing so he can’t try to reclaim it or imprison it in his heart again.
[Chorus]
The chorus returns with renewed desperation. He begs for a clean break, to be left unable to reach or revive what’s gone. The repetition emphasizes his inner turmoil, cycling through grief, longing, and resignation.
[Post-Chorus]
Again, KAI emphasizes how broken he is, and how every part of his world has faded. The repetition of his emotional collapse mirrors the cyclical nature of heartbreak—how it feels like falling endlessly, with no relief or end in sight.
[Outro]
In the outro, KAI makes a quiet resolution. He may let go and watch this person leave forever, but he won’t forget. The act of release doesn’t erase the memories—it only gives him space to begin healing. His wish is to end things, not with bitterness, but with acceptance, even if that means losing something he once cherished deeply.
