Tell Me Lies

(A telephone rings once. A soft electric piano begins.)

[Aria - whispered]:

もしもし…まだ起きてる？

[Nova]:

You said you'd call me at midnight…

It's almost three.

[Jaeha - whispered]:

Don't ask him why.

[All - softly]:

Just tell me lies…

Tell me lies…

窓に映る lonely face

消せないままの your embrace

優しい言葉、信じたくて

また同じ夢を見てる

You say forever, then disappear

Leave me waiting when you're not here

分かってるのに離れない

Why does goodbye feel so far away?

네 목소리에 또 무너져

차가운 밤이 깊어져

다 거짓말인 걸 알면서도

네 품에 다시 돌아가고 싶어

[Jaeha]:

Don't say sorry, don't explain

I don't wanna hear your name

But when you whisper in my ear…

I forget why I should fear.

[Nova]:

ねえ、もう一度だけ

愛してるって言って

Tell me lies, lies, lies

Look me straight into my eyes

Say I'm the only one tonight

Even if we both know it's not right

Tell me lies, lies, lies

Kiss away these alibis

I don't need forever, baby, just tonight

Hold me close and tell me lies

[Sera - ad-lib]: Tell me, tell me!

[All]:

Tell me lies, lies, lies

I don't wanna say goodbye.

[Nova]:

Lie to me, lie to me

Baby, make believe

[Aria]:

夢なら覚めないで

[Both]:

Lie to me, lie to me

Give me what I need.

(The bass becomes heavier; clipped synths and sharp snaps enter.)

새벽 세 시, 또 울리는 phone

어디냐고 물으면 넌 항상 alone

거짓말은 달콤해, 진실은 bitter

네 사랑은 cheap, 난 deserve better

Red flag, red flag, 눈앞에 flashing

알면서도 네게 또 빠져, how tragic

내 맘은 전쟁, 넌 웃고 있지

I say I'm done, then I answer your call

You built me up just to watch me fall

One more night, one more mistake

How much of my heart you gonna take?

[Sera]:

네 눈을 보면 다 알 것 같아

하지만 모른 척하고 싶어

[Aria]:

ねえ、嘘でもいいから

今だけそばにいて

[All - building]:

One more kiss before we fall…

Tell me lies, lies, lies

Look me straight into my eyes

Say I'm the only one tonight

Even if we both know it's not right

Tell me lies, lies, lies

Kiss away these alibis

I don't need forever, baby, just tonight

Hold me close and tell me lies

(SULTRY OLD-SCHOOL K-POP)

(A pulsing synth bass, finger snaps and a chopped vocal sample repeating “lie, lie, lie.”)

[Nova]: Lie to me…

[Minji]: One more time!

[Nova - whispered]: I know you're lying.

(One heartbeat sound. The piano returns.)

[Aria]:

本当は分かっていた

この恋は終わっていた

でもあなたの温もりが

まだ心に残ってる

[Sera]:

이제는 나를 놓아줘

더는 아프고 싶지 않아

사랑이란 이름으로

나를 잃고 싶지 않아

[Nova - high note]:

If love is just a beautiful lie…

WHY CAN'T I SAY GOODBYE?

Tell me lies, lies, lies

One last time before sunrise

Say you never meant to break my heart

Say we never had to fall apart

Tell me lies, lies, lies

Even as the truth arrives

I don't need forever, baby, just tonight

Hold me close beneath the fading light

[Sera - high ad-lib]: Tell me you love me!

[Jaeha]: Even if it's over!

[Nova]:

For tonight…

Tell me lies.

(The beat fades. A soft electric piano remains.)

[Aria]:

さよならを言えないまま…

[Nova]:

You don't have to call me anymore.

(A pause.)

[All - whispered]:

Tell me…
