CYNICAL Lyrics – SUNMI (선미)

CYNICAL Lyrics Meaning

[Verse 1]
She hears a loud, dramatic sound that feels like a sharp scene from a dark movie. Her heart feels ripped out by someone who seems distant and unreactive. She notices the person smiling with no real feeling and speaking like it doesn’t matter. She is torn — asking if he loves her, angry and hurt but still holding onto love, confused by mixed feelings.

[Chorus]
She keeps asking why he always looks doubtful and stiff, telling him to relax instead of being guarded. She wants him to smile more and stop overthinking. It’s like she can’t understand why he treats things oddly, and she keeps pushing him to show a lighter, friendlier side.

[Verse 2]
She remembers a time when they were close, singing and hugging, but sees someone else now. Still, despite doubts and jealousy, she admits she still loves him.

[Chorus]
He asks why he keeps being so skeptical and distant, and she urges him to calm down and drop the hard face. She wants him to laugh and be open, wondering why he makes things strange when a simple smile could change everything.

[Bridge]
She promises a night together but hints at a dangerous, all-or-nothing vibe — saying once dawn comes they might never wake like before. She demands a bigger smile and threatens harm if he won’t show affection, mixing romance and intensity.

[Chorus]
She again asks why he’s so closed off and tells him to relax. She wants him to smile and stop carrying that serious, distant expression.

[Outro]
She offers to be the one who understands his pain, saying she wants to hold onto him even if it means sharing his sorrow. She warns she will catch him if he tries to run, repeating that she desperately wants to be with him and won’t let go.
