Viola - Intellectual

[이브 "Viola" 가사]

[Intro]

Let's get dumb and break shit

[Chorus]

I just need some space

I just need some space, space, space

Voices in my head

I just need some space, space, space

[Verse 1]

Complicated

I'm losing control, oh, I feel the same way

I know who I am

Oh please, just stop it

It's burning my brain

You melting my chain

[Refrain]

Got it, you find it

I never let it down

Break it, just take it

Unless you fight, it's up to you

[Pre-Chorus]

감당못해 이 세계의 나

덤덤한 척 하는 네 눈빛 속

무너져버린 내 무대 뒷 편에서

무감각해진 나를 바라봐

[Chorus]

I just need some space

I just need some space, space, space

Voices in my head

I just need some space, space, space

[Verse 2]

Oh, I'm not that crazy

Push it hard, let me be me

You know I fly high, just feel it

I'ma go far, just give me a minute

Let me go, let me go

I'm ready, that's for sure

I won't look back, take it, my pack

I'll dance again, dance again, hey

[Refrain]

Got it, you find it

I never let it down

Break it, just take it

Unless you fight, it's up to you

[Pre-Chorus]

감당못해 이 세계의 나

덤덤한 척 하는 네 눈빛 속

무너져버린 내 무대 뒷 편에서

무감각해진 나를 바라봐

[Chorus]

I just need some space

I just need some space, space, space

Voices in my head

I just need some space, space, space

I just need some space

I just need some space, space, space

Voices in my head

I just need some space, space, space

[Outro]

감당못해 이 세계의 나

덤덤한 척 하는 네 눈빛 속

무너져버린 내 무대 뒷 편에서

무감각해진 나를 바라봐

Yves about these lines:

There’s a line in “Viola” that goes, “Watching my numb self from behind my shattered stage,” and that line really resonated with me because I feel like it mirrors how I’ve fallen down but picked myself back up again to get a new start in life. When I was younger, I thought nothing could make me happier than being a singer, but like with any career, a lot of things are different from how I imagined them to be, and sometimes I felt so insignificant. But if I think of myself as a circle, while other people just see a simple shape, there’s a centripetal force at play that lets me keep my shape through collisions of energies inside me.
