listen to this

I don’t know why I still remember

I know why I still remember.

All our memories that were like a living hell.

All our memories that meant everything to me.

I’ll remember our past.

And so will I.

You were playing around with me. Thanks to you, everything’s changed for me.

The pain when I hear this breaks me. I had to let you go. Thanks to you, everything’s changed for me, even to this day.

The side of me that used to be able to laugh, doesn’t exist anymore.

Please forgive me. I stopped laughing too.

Love is a joke to me now; my crushed heart.

When I crushed your heart, mine went shattering along with it.

I tried everything to forget you

I wish you had. Because one person missing the other is enough, we don’t need us both to be crying.

I became better before anyone else.

I left so you could push yourself. I didn’t want to drag you down.

I hoped that you would regret it all when you saw me.

They say that hate is a good motivation, and I provided it for you. I regret and I don’t. I do because I love you; I don’t because I love you.

Yeah, all of my music that you ignored,

It wasn’t ignoring. It was pushing myself away.

Will be blasting on the streets of Seoul.

I bow my head when I hear your pain, broadcasted on the radio. I hope you’re happy now. I’m sorry I’ve caused you pain but you couldn’t have me with you as you soared. If I were still next to you, you never would have made it big.

Our old habits are holding onto us, You’re often unconsciously falling into a nightmare-like world.

It was time for me to let you go.

But still, because I was in love with you,

But still, because I am in love with you,

I won’t ever forget you. Yes, I remember.

Even if I close my eyes, I still see us. There’s still a light there.

I can’t sleep without seeing you in front of me. Everything’s shrouded in darkness.

I’ll deeply retain the times we had together.

Everything we’ve done together is forever engraved in my memories.

Even if the pain comes over time, The promise I made for the rest of my life, I won’t ever forget that moment until the end.

We promised to love each other to the end. But when I left you, you promised to remember me, to hate me forever. I won’t forget the hurt in your eyes when you said it.

I don’t know what you’ve done to me.

I hurt you, what do you think?

Just like that forget it. I won’t deal with love.

I’m sorry but you couldn’t love both your music and me.

I came back, yeah. Throw it away. I don’t need it anymore.

Maybe one day, you’ll be able to see that you’ve always loved music more and then you’ll know why I left.

Now, I can finally sleep without you around.

I can’t sleep without you around.

There’s a spotlight in your empty space.

The spotlight where you were supposed to be reminds me glaringly of not having you.

I don’t believe in the significance of the dream I dreamed.

Your dreams were never with me. Your dreams were with your passions.

I’m going crazy in the reality of being thrown away.

I didn’t throw you away. I was the one who left.

I’m hot stuff. People like you want to go out with me. The scars you get from pleading; I’ll live my life in a corrupt way.

When I see how popular you’ve become, I feel a heightened sense of pride. Please stick on your path and make our pain worth it.

Even long after our farewell, in the end, all I had left was the promise we made, which doesn’t exist now.

I promise to love you forever. And I still do.

That was often the reason to why I’m where I am now.

You never told me that. I always thought my love was what was keeping you from soaring.

I let that day slip through my hands,

I’m glad you’re moving on. Move on for me.

Don’t ever look at me again.

I won’t.

I’ll believe that you feel the same way I do.

I don’t hate you.

I won’t ever forget. Yes, I remember.

I will always remember you.

Making a promise together, forever

Forever always meant you and I before

Even if I have to walk this road alone, temporarily

I’m sorry I had to leave you. This road was meant to be taken alone.

I’ll show you everything I’ve got.

I wish you the best of luck, Yongguk.

Even if I close my eyes, I still see us.

There’s still a light there.

I’ll deeply retain the times we had together.

Even if pain comes over time,

The promise I made for the rest of my life,

I won’t ever forget that moment until the end.

I Remember.

this is for Minthe

this is my favorite song ever and to be honest, I'm not sure I did this the right way. I wanted to do something different so I wrote it from the girls point of view. She's the bold and she hears this song on the radio and this is her response to Yongguk's harsh lyrics. I hope it makes sense. I may come back and rewrite another story for this song though
