Why? Lyrics – Stray Kids

[Verse 1: Hyunjin Changbin & Felix]
Age is only a number yeah 気にすんな
あいつと違う道だけ進むんだ
What is your problem?
I ain’t got time for the chitter-chat yeah
悪魔の声は破滅もたらすだけさ, yeah
(Who?) They all do the same
But why can’t they understand us?
(When?) Everyday every night
They can not stop with the “Blah-blah”
(Where?) They’re everywhere
Everywhere looking like starving hyenas
What do they want? How am I gonna survive?
We do the same actions but we are the victims (Why?)
[Pre-Chorus: Lee Know Seungmin & Changbin]
Kill the sound (Kill the sound) このままいさせて
Paint the town (Paint the town) わがままの my way
繰り返す日常の (Why?)
鎖破って leave us alone

[Chorus: Changbin & All]
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh
Leave us alone
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh
Leave us alone
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh
Leave us alone
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh

[Post-Chorus: Bang Chan Seungmin & Han]
止まらない口を zip it up now
聞こえない I’m taking my time
I don’t know why
構わずに進むのさ
Oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh
You don’t know who I am
遊びじゃない game
[Verse 2: Lee Know Han Hyunjin & Changbin]
ノイズが離れない don’t wanna hear them tell me
Volume off no-oh-oh-oh
周りに流されてるって 決めつけてんだろ
No-oh-oh-oh
かけるクセついてしまった
色眼鏡 白が黒で黒は白
曇る判断さえ見ないふりしてる again
Trash in the streets yeah I like to call ’em people
I don’t wanna listen because they’re all hypocritical
Negative energy 切り捨て行こう
周り目気にせずに go pronto

[Pre-Chorus: Bang Chan I.N Han & Changbin]
Kill the sound (Kill the sound) このままいさせて
Paint the town (Paint the town) わがままの my way
繰り返す日常の (Why?)
鎖破って leave us alone

[Chorus: Han & All]
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh
Leave us alone
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh
Leave us alone

Leave us alone
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh

[Bridge: Lee Know Seungmin Han & All]
