Kangta – Diner (단골식당)

Loosening my necktie, on my way home from work
I entered this familiar restaurant
Exchanging drinks of soju with the people inside
The struggles of my day starts to go away

Then I saw the restaurant wall
A scribble that we left long ago
Clearly written, a date from long ago
I quietly laughed at the cringing words

That’s how we were back then
I used to be afraid of our memories
I couldn’t even come here
But now even my memories have faded
So I thought of you only when I saw the faded scribble

What am I like in your memories?
Probably different from me right now
So exhausted from the weight of life
On top of getting drunk
Those memories keep coming to life
On top of my reddening face
Tears are flowing

I was really curious
I missed you
I hated myself for letting you go like this
But in time that built up over time
Even that part of me faded away

What are you like in my memories?
I resented myself for forgetting you so easily
So more than the day I let you go
More than the times I cried so much
The me of right now is much sadder and lonelier

Do you sometimes come here too?
Or did you get comfortable way earlier than me?
When we broke up back then
When I was struggling for a while
In the end, it’s finally today
That our break up started

What am I like in your memories?
Probably different from me right now
So exhausted from the weight of life
On top of getting drunk
Those memories keep coming to life
On top of my reddening face
Tears are flowing

Hoping to be a bridge between k-pop music & k-pop fans who don't understand the Korean language.
