Keys Between Knuckles
She keeps her keys between her knuckles when she walks at night
She says the city looks much better when it loses light She’s
got a stack of unread novels by her unmade bed And three
separate conversations running in her head
She bought a ticket to a movie just to sit alone
And left a hundred unread messages inside her phone (ooh-ooh)
She thinks she’s running out of time at twenty-three She looks at
pictures of the world she wants to see And she’s so tired
of the people that she’s supposed to be
Yeah, she’s so tired
of the pressure and the
gravity
Oh,
she’s a
mess,
but
she’s a masterpiece in disguise She’s checking balances
with panic in her eyes And she don't know if she will
ever make it out alive
But she’s still dancing to
the rhythm of her
own advice
Yeah, she’s
just trying to survive!
(Hey! Hey! Look at her go!)
She changed her major twice because she couldn't choose a path Now
she’s working at a counter doing spreadsheet math
She tells her mom that everything is going super great While she
eats leftover pizza at a quarter to eight
She hates the winter but she lives up in the freezing north
Just pacing back and forth
She thinks she’s running out of time at twenty-three She looks at
pictures of the world she wants to see And she’s so tired
of the people that she’s supposed to be
Yeah, she’s so tired!
(너무 힘들어)
Oh, she’s a mess,
but she’s a masterpiece in disguise
She’s checking balances with panic in her eyes And she don't know
if she will ever make it out alive But she’s still dancing
to the rhythm of her own advice Yeah,
she’s just trying to survive!
(이겨낼 거야!)
One day she’ll buy a house One day she’ll figure it out
Or maybe she won't,
and maybe that's fine She’s drawing a brand new line (새로운 시작)
Can we skip to the good part?
She
keeps her keys between her knuckles when
she
walks at night
She thinks
that
maybe, just
maybe,
she’ll be alright
(괜찮을 거야)
