My biggest qualm about being a K-Pop fan and not speaking any Korean is that some parts are difficult to sing along to. Lately, I've been addicted to listening to Spica's "Painkiller," and after reading the lyrics, I thought it'd be fun to come up with some new English lyrics that I could actually sing (and weren't just translations) to match the song. Tell me what you think!
Listen
I've never been this way before
So vulnerable
I had ambitions for myself
You know me, yeah you know me
I have never needed someone loving me (no need)
Why so different now?
This time just doesn’t feel right
Something’s missing
My actions make no sense (oh)
You know me, yeah you know me
I stay awake just thinking ‘bout your touch (each night)
Why’d you have to go?
(Chorus)
You took it all away
You caused my heart to break
It’s unbelievable
Isn’t the first time
But feels like the last time (whoa)
It’s unbelievable
Pain killer killer killer (x3)
“Not ready to love you yet,”
Are your parting words
Guess you easily forget
You know me, yeah you know me
So easy if you didn’t start at all (baby)
Saying words you don’t mean
I’ve been fine, bottling it in
Feelings hidden
Watch me get up again
You know me, yeah you know me
Can’t remember the last time I cried (so hard)
But now it’s everyday
(Chorus)
I have never meant to let you trespass
So many factors kept me guarded
Hard memories I must live past
So very special, very special
Oh, you had made me love again
An open game with broken rules
Heartache, pain, so unfulfilled
Something changed- I’ll never be the same
(Chorus)
You took it all away
You caused my heart to break (cannot fix, oh baby)
It’s unbelievable
Isn’t the first time
But feels like the last time (whoa)
It’s unbelievable
Pain killer killer killer (This is all pain)
Pain killer killer killer (All I got is pain)
Pain killer killer killer (Oh baby)
Huuooohh...
Here's the song with the original English translations.
