[Korean:]
무언갈 그리워한 느낌
의식과 꿈의 경곌 헤맨 것 같아
자욱한 안갯속에
너무도 달콤하게
방향도 모르는 채
끝없이 거니는 꿈
Falling
Calling
Chasing
꿈인 걸 알면서도
깨어날 수 없는 이 꿈처럼 나
어둠 속에 길 잃은 밤처럼
홀린 듯이 헤맸어 끝없이 널
No, no, no, I can’t stop love
넌 자꾸 짙은 어둠 속에 더 깊이
널 닮은 흐린 안갯속 더 깊이
사라진대도 놓지 않을게 널
No, no, no, I can’t stop love
No, no, no, I can’t stop love
넌 자꾸 짙은 어둠 속에 더 깊이
널 닮은 흐린 안갯속 더 깊이
사라진대도 놓지 않을게 널
No, no, no, I can’t stop love
잡힐 듯 스친 손 틈 사이에
살며시 간지럽혀 나를 놀리곤
달래듯 품에 안아
감싸는 공기 같아
자꾸 더 원하게 돼
너라는 포근한 꿈
Falling
Calling
Chasing
잡을 수 없다 해도
깨어날 수 없는 이 꿈처럼 나
어둠 속에 길 잃은 밤처럼
홀린 듯이 헤맸어 끝없이 널
No, no, no, I can’t stop love
넌 자꾸 짙은 어둠 속에 더 깊이
널 닮은 흐린 안갯속 더 깊이
사라진대도 놓지 않을게 널
No, no, no, I can’t stop love
No, no, no, I can’t stop love
넌 자꾸 짙은 어둠 속에 더 깊이
널 닮은 흐린 안갯속 더 깊이
사라진대도 놓지 않을게 널
No, no, no, I can’t stop love
Why am I so attached to you?
Every time you leave me I don’t know what to do
I just can’t stop loving you
I don’t know what else to say
You drive me crazy
사라질 듯 머무른 꿈처럼 나
흩어질 듯 밀려든 밤처럼
벗어나려 할수록 선명한 널
No, no, no, I can’t stop love
더 깊이 속삭여 나를 이끈 곳에
난 너를 따라 영원히 이곳에
암흑 속을 향해도 끝까지 널
No, no, no, I can’t stop love
No, no, no, I can’t stop love
더 깊이 속삭여 나를 이끈 곳에
난 너를 따라 영원히 이곳에
암흑 속을 향해도 끝까지 널
No, no, no, I can’t stop love
Exploring the Dreamlike World of “Lucid Dream”
“Lucid Dream (자각몽)” by aespa is a poetic journey through the blurred boundaries of dreams and reality. The lyrics evoke a sense of longing and emotional entanglement, as the narrator finds themselves wandering endlessly in a sweet, enveloping fog—symbolizing a love that is both enchanting and elusive. Imagery of darkness, mist, and an endless night amplifies the feeling of being lost yet captivated by someone who continues to draw them in deeper. Even as they realize they’re in a dream, the pull of love is irresistible, making it impossible to let go. The repeated refrain, “No, no, no, I can’t stop love,” highlights the struggle between conscious awareness and uncontrollable emotion, mirroring the sensation of being in a lucid dream where the heart refuses to wake up.
