[Chorus: Riwoo, Myung Jaehyun]
The singer acknowledges that they made mistakes in the relationship. They feel like their ex is now playing around, not giving them any notice. The ex has moved on and is loving someone else, perhaps in the same way they once loved the singer. The singer expresses frustration and confusion, feeling that they should still be the one close to their ex, wondering if their ex is really happy or just pretending.

[Verse 1: Woonhak, Myung Jaehyun, Sungho, Taesan]
The singer talks about having a new person in their life, feeling the excitement of a new relationship. But everything changes when they unexpectedly run into their ex. The sight of their ex, now happily in a new relationship, makes the singer realize that they’re truly a couple. This hits hard, and the singer feels it’s unfair. They also notice how good their ex looks, as if everything is perfect now, which stirs up jealousy and emotional pain.

[Chorus: Taesan, Sungho]
The singer again acknowledges their mistakes and questions if their ex is moving on without any concern for their feelings. They wonder if their ex is loving the new person the same way they once did. The singer feels like they should still be the one close to their ex, and the idea of their ex being happy without them feels like a joke, leaving them confused and hurt.

[Verse 2: Leehan, Taesan, Riwoo]
The singer feels overwhelmed with emotion, describing how they feel thirsty for something, but when they try to look at it, it’s like everything has evaporated. They describe dark clouds forming above their head, representing their sadness and rising emotional turmoil. They feel like crying but try to hold it in. The singer also feels that their ex might be pretending to be happy, maybe even faking a good attitude about everything, which makes the situation feel even worse.

[Chorus: Woonhak, Leehan]
The singer repeats their acknowledgment of past mistakes but expresses frustration about how their ex seems to be moving on without them. They again wonder if their ex loves the new person as they once loved the singer. The singer feels they should still be the one close to their ex and that it’s unfair for them to be happy without any sign of caring for their feelings, as if it’s a joke.

[Outro: Taesan]
