Friend Zone (English Translation) Lyrics Meaning

[Verse 1]
The singer feels an emotional pull towards someone, keeping their feelings hidden deep inside. They want to be close to this person, but the situation is delicate. The person’s best friend knows their intentions, but the singer’s feelings are growing stronger, and they crave more closeness, even though they are unsure about how to act.

[Pre-Chorus]
The singer reflects on how the other person promised to be “friends forever.” This promise is deeply embedded in their heart, like a tattoo, and no matter how hard they try to forget, those words stay with them, leaving a lasting emotional mark, like a bruise.

[Chorus]
The singer asks for clarity, wanting to know if the other person needs or loves someone else. Even when they are close, they still feel lonely. They express their frustration, saying they can’t stay in the “friend zone” anymore and want to take their relationship beyond just friendship.

[Post-Chorus]
The singer feels like there’s a growing distance between them, even though they are physically near each other. The farther apart they are emotionally, the clearer it becomes how big the gap is between them, highlighting the unresolved tension in their relationship.

[Verse 2]
The singer senses that the emotional connection between them and the other person has soured. There’s a change in their dynamic, and they now find themselves in a safer, more cautious space. The singer is finally being honest about wanting to cross the line from friendship to something more, even though it’s uncertain.

[Pre-Chorus]
The singer again reflects on the “friends forever” promise, but now, that promise feels permanent, like a tattoo on their heart. They’ve tried to move on, but it remains, like a scar, reminding them of what’s unspoken between them.

[Chorus]
The singer reiterates their loneliness, asking if the other person wants or needs someone else. They still feel like they are wandering through their emotions, unsure of where they stand. They emphasize that they can’t remain in the friend zone anymore and want something more meaningful.

[Bridge]
The singer expresses that they can’t simply push away the other person, even though they’ve changed. They wonder where this person is and still think about them, waiting for them to realize the singer’s feelings. The singer wonders what would happen if they finally confessed how they truly feel.

[Chorus]
The singer repeats their feelings of loneliness and longing, asking if the other person needs or loves someone else. They are still wandering, unsure of their place in this person’s life, but now, they’re declaring that they won’t stay in the friend zone anymore.

[Post-Chorus]
Once again, the singer feels the distance between them and the other person, and the more space there is, the clearer the emotional gap becomes. This separation makes the singer realize how difficult the situation is, both emotionally and physically.
