Reality Hurts Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
This short moment feels like a pause before the chaos starts, as if the singer is taking a breath before expressing all the frustration and strength that’s coming next.

[Verse 1: Lily, Haewon]
This part talks about how people try to label or control others, expecting them to fit into neat, perfect boxes. The singer feels frustrated because society often ignores how harmful that can be. She feels like she’s walking through a harsh, judgmental world where she’s watched closely but still feels unseen and isolated. Despite that, she longs for real connection and clarity in all the confusion.

[Pre-Chorus: Sullyoon]
Here, it feels like the singer is struggling to handle the pressure. Everything feels suffocating and heavy, and even though she wants to escape and feel free, the difficulties of life keep catching up to her.

[Chorus: Kyujin, BAE]
This part shows strong self-belief and confidence. The singer says she doesn’t need magic or approval to make an impact. She feels powerful enough to create change and live differently, even if others can’t understand or accept it. It’s a bold statement of independence and strength.

[Post-Chorus: BAE]
Facing the truth of life can be painful.

[Verse 2: Jiwoo, Lily]
Here, the singer describes how she’s constantly pursued by challenges and negativity, but she’s still ahead. She’s tired of fighting the same battles and feels worn out by how tough reality can be. It’s like she’s trying to break through something hard but keeps hitting a wall, showing her exhaustion with the struggle.

[Pre-Chorus: Jiwoo]
Now she decides to reject everything fake and unnecessary. Surrounded by her friends, she feels empowered and supported, reminding herself that she doesn’t need to deal with negativity alone.

[Chorus: BAE, Sullyoon]
Once again, she celebrates her strength and individuality. She knows she’s capable of huge things without anyone’s permission. The world might not understand her, but that won’t stop her from creating her own path and challenging what’s considered normal.

[Post-Chorus: Sullyoon]
The truth still stings deeply.

[Bridge: Haewon, Kyujin]
This section is all about resilience. The singers talk about bouncing back no matter what life throws at them. They compare themselves to an antibody, fighting off anything harmful and always recovering stronger. It’s a message of unstoppable energy and persistence.

[Chorus: Jiwoo, Haewon]
The message of power and self-assurance repeats again here. They emphasize that they can create change and shape their own world without relying on magic or outside validation, even when others struggle to understand their strength.

[Post-Chorus: Haewon, Lily]
Facing the harshness of life still hurts, but they’ve accepted it and keep moving forward.
