Ego Lyrics Meaning Crush | wonderego
The lyrics describe a love so intense it shakes the narrator’s confidence. ‘Girl, you’ve killed my ego,’ the performer sings, highlighting how the beauty of his partner leaves him feeling both enchanted and exasperated. The imagery of a flickering light and stained clothes adds depth to the emotional tug-of-war.
유난이라고 하지 마Don’t say I’m being dramatic.
밤길은 위험하니까Because the streets are dangerous at night,
딱 현관문 앞까지만I’ll just walk you to your front door.
정말 얄미워You’re so frustrating.
어쩜 이렇게 예뻐How can you be this beautiful?
나 떨어지기 싫어I don’t want to leave your side.
아쉬워 너 미워I’m so bummed out, I hate you.
투정 같은 내 말투My voice sounds like I’m whining,
달래는 너의 입맞춤But your kiss soothes me.
꺼진 우리 머리 위에 불The light above our heads is out,
아른하게Flickering dimly.
Girl you killed my egoGirl, you’ve killed my ego.
어쩜 이렇게 예뻐How can you be this beautiful?
나 떨어지기 싫어I don’t want to leave your side.
아쉬워 너 미워I’m so bummed out, I hate you.
너 미워I hate you.
미워 미워 미워Hate you, hate you, hate you.
너 미워I hate you.
미워 미워 미워Hate you, hate you, hate you.
혼자 흥얼거려 멜로디 음I’m humming a melody to myself, mmm.
둘이 같이 듣던 노래야 음It’s the song we used to listen to together, mmm.
반가움에 절로 미소 방긋A smile just spreads across my face.
또 닫아가는 우리 둘The distance between us is closing again.
If you want to understand ‘Ego,’ the lyrics blend love and frustration in a way that feels both sweet and raw. The chemistry between Crush and his collaborators makes the track a standout in Korean R&B.
