[Verse 1]
I was a ghost
I was alone
어두워진 앞길 속에 (ah)
Given the throne
I didn't know how to believe
I was the queen that I'm meant to be (ah)
I lived two lives
Tried to play both sides
But I couldn't find my name in the mirror
Gold on my hands
But my heart ran dry
Every crown felt a little bit cheaper
[Pre-Chorus]
숨을 참고 올라가
떨린 발로 서 있나
이 무대 위에 나 혼자
Do I rise
Or do I hide?
[Chorus]
I made a throne in the dark
But it felt so cold
손에 쥔 꿈도 다 흑백 속
I wore a smile like a shining sword
Cutting me deeper than the world ever could
Now I’m burning up the mask
Letting all eyes see
그림자 뒤에 숨은 real me
I’m not a ghost
I’m not your fantasy
I am the queen that I’m meant to be (ah)
[Verse 2]
Every yes was really saying “wait”
무너지는 벽들 사이 (ah)
All of the praise felt a little late
When I was drowning in the quiet at night
두려움이 귓가에 속삭여
“너는 혼자야” 거짓말
But I learned to love every broken part
Turned every crack to a crown on my heart
[Pre-Chorus]
숨을 참고 올라가
떨린 발로 서 있나
이 무대 위에 나 혼자
Do I rise
Or do I hide?
[Chorus]
I made a throne in the dark
But it felt so cold
손에 쥔 꿈도 다 흑백 속
I wore a smile like a shining sword
Cutting me deeper than the world ever could
Now I’m burning up the mask
Letting all eyes see
그림자 뒤에 숨은 real me
I’m not a ghost
I’m not your fantasy
I am the queen that I’m meant to be (ah)
[Bridge]
떨어져도 괜찮아
다시 일어나면 돼 (hey!)
눈물 자국까지도
나를 빛나게 할 frame
I was a ghost
Now I’m alive
숨을 쉬는 이 순간
Call my name
I’ll answer twice
This is where my story stands
[Chorus]
I made a throne in the dark
But it felt so cold
이젠 내 두 발로 빛 속으로
I wear my scars like a blazing crown
Every wound singing “you can’t be put down”
Now I’m walking through the fire and I feel so free
세상 앞에 서는 real me
I’m not a ghost
I’m not your fantasy
I am the queen that I’m meant to be (ah)
