W.House Lyrics – KISS OF LIFE

W.House Lyrics Meaning

[Verse 1: Julie, Natty]
The singer is walking alone through rainy streets, feeling overwhelmed and hurt, as if the rain is adding to their sadness. Tears are just pouring out like a flood. They’re trying to escape the pain by drinking, thinking maybe being drunk will numb the memories. The past relationship feels strong and intense, and now thinking about it while drinking feels unfamiliar and strange. They’re trying to take it in deeply, even though it hurts.

[Pre-Chorus: Haneul, Belle, Julie]
The night in the city feels heavy and dark, with flickering neon lights that seem like they might fade at any moment—kind of like how the singer feels inside. Even though they know what’s happening, they feel drained and broken. They call this toxic feeling love, knowing it’s messing with them. They tried to stay strong or act right, but they just couldn’t, so they gave in and admitted it.

[Chorus: Natty, Belle]
They’re in a place they call the “Winehouse,” where emotions run wild. Tears might dry here, but only for a moment, in a space filled with red and white—like wine, or love and pain. They mention going “back to black,” a nod to Amy Winehouse, meaning sinking back into darkness. The only way to cope feels like getting drunk.

[Verse 2: Julie]
They’re saying the other person turned this place—a relationship, or maybe the Winehouse itself—into something that triggers their pain. Love felt sweet at first but turned bitter. They feel cheated and drained, like love sucked the life out of them. The lies left scars on their heart. They want to move on, but deep down they know that nothing the other person does will ever really change. They started out together, but in the end, the singer feels completely alone, as if the relationship left them with nothing.

[Pre-Chorus: Haneul, Natty, Julie]
Now the city feels silent and empty, with neon signs that seem like they’re fading away—just like the singer’s own fragile state. They’re on the edge, ready to break at the slightest touch. The more they try to forget, the more they think of their ex. It’s a crazy kind of love with no cure. They tried to keep it together but failed again, and they admit it once more.

[Chorus: Belle, Natty]
Back at the Winehouse, the same stormy emotions are playing out. In the middle of all this chaos, tears fall and time feels stained by the past. Everything there feels like red or white—maybe love or hurt, wine or blood. They keep going back to that emotional darkness, and again, drinking feels like the only way to survive.

[Outro: All, Julie]
The song ends with them still stuck in that Winehouse space, where feelings are intense and painful. They’re trying to hold themselves together as emotions dry out. They repeat that they need a break—some kind of escape. But it’s hard, because that place, and that person, still have a hold on them. Even though love felt sweet, it ended up feeling like poison, and the hurt hasn’t gone away.
