In Episode 16-2 of Yeri’s Room, Yeri shared that the lyrics were written based on what she has been thinking these days. This song is about Yeri’s mind, and was written while thinking of fellow Red Velvet member, Wendy, as the protagonist.
[예리 "흘러가는 것들에 대하여" 가사]
요즘은 아무것도 신경을
These days, I don't wanna
더없이 쓰고 싶지 않아
Care for anything
과거 어느 때에는 sometimes
Back in the past, sometimes
미래 어느 때에는 sometimes Gotta
And in the future, sometimes Gotta
Look up 시선을 올려도 그 자리
Look up, but I'm still here
Look up 나아지기에는 deface
Look up, but won't get better deface
지금 이 시간을 놓아 흘러가잖아
The time we have right now is passing by
Hey, damn what should I do
Hey, damn what should I do
하늘은 금방이라도 울음이 터질 것만 같아
The sky would cry anytime soon
뿌연 내 맘을 보는 게
Tired to see my clouded mind
지겨워 외면해버려
I'm gonna ignore it
소중하게 빛난 것들
The precious light we had
한 움 큼 집어 바라보면 비춰 비춰 비춰
Grasp it, gaze into it, and shine shine shine
별 의미 없던 것들 그 안에 일렁이는
I'm afraid to find you
너를 거울 보듯 비춰
Reflected like a mirror
질세라 겁이 나
In the meaningless matters
Everybody we can
Everybody we can
