Why Lyrics Translation (from “HAPPEN”)

Heize describes losing appetite and sleep over silence. The songwriter asks, “How much more of myself must I throw away.” These words show deep devotion despite the pain.

What you want from love?What do you want from love?
Tell me anythingTell me anything,
But you never say yeahbut you never say a word.
가르쳐줄래Won’t you teach me,
너의 방식the way you love?
But you never say yeahBut you never say a word.
기다렸던 건The reason I’ve been waiting,
아무 말 안 했던 건the reason I’ve stayed silent,
시간을 끌고 있었던 건and why I’ve been stalling for time,
Waiting for your loveis because I’m waiting for your love.
난 바람이 하나 있지I have just one wish,
너를 위해서 존재하고 싶어that I want to exist only for you.
Why don’t you fall in love?Why don’t you fall in love?
얼마나 더 날 버려야 하는지How much more of myself must I throw away?
Why are you going far away?Why are you going far away?
얼마나 더 가야 하는지How much further do I have to go?
입맛은 없고I’ve lost my appetite,
당연히 잠도 안 오지and of course, I can’t even sleep.
내가 이렇게I never knew that I,
친절한 여자였었는지could be such a devoted woman.
몰랐었는데I didn’t realize it before,
다 너를 위해 참을 수 있어 난but I can endure everything for your sake.
Why don’t you fall in love?Why don’t you fall in love?
얼마나 더 날 버려야 하는지How much more of myself must I throw away?
Why are you going far away?Why are you going far away?
얼마나 더 가야 하는지How much further do I have to go?
멀어지지 마요Please don’t drift away,
멀어지지 마don’t grow distant.
너를 울게 두지 않을 사람The person who’ll never let you cry,
나예요is me.
Why don’t you fall in love?Why don’t you fall in love?
얼마나 더 날 버려야 하는지How much more of myself must I throw away?
Why are you going far away?Why are you going far away?
얼마나 더 가야 하는지How much further do I have to go?
