Big Bang 5th Mini Album ALIVE - Lyrics English Translations

1. Intro
I’m still alive, I’m still alive, I’m still alive
It might look like I’m dying, but I will not die
I avoid other people’s stares but I will never hide

Always showing off until the end
Even if I fall down, I’m alive
I don’t have anything else to lose
Put the past behind me and jump out
It’s beautiful to see myself having fallen in deep now
I throw myself towards the sky, I’m free
At least for this moment, I’m alive, I’m still alive

I’m still alive, I’m still alive, I’m still alive
I’m livin’ that, I’m livin’ that good life
I’m still alive, I’m still alive, I’m still alive
We livin’ that, we livin’ that good life

2. Blue
Winter passes and spring finds us as we wither
My heart is bruised from this yearning

(I’m singing my blues)
I become tamed by blue tears and blue sadness
(I’m singing my blues)
I sent my love flying on a drifting cloud oh oh

Same sky but different places
Because you and I are dangerous
I am leaving you
Add a dot to the character nim
It’s cowardly but I’m hiding cause I’m foolish
This cruel farewell is our last day of love
No words can be comforting at all
This might be the last melodrama of my life
The curtains are falling now

I was born and met you
And I loved you to death
My cold heart is dyed in blue
Even if I close my eyes, I can’t feel you

Winter passes and spring finds us as we wither
My heart is bruised from this yearning

(I’m singing my blues)
I become tamed by blue tears and blue sadness
(I’m singing my blues)
I sent my love flying on a drifting cloud oh oh

It feels like my heart has stopped
The war has ended
And you and I are frozen to that place
The trauma is engraved into my head
When these tears dry
Remember my love vividly
It’s not painful or lonesome
I mutter happiness to myself
I can’t take those complicated ideals
It’s not a big deal, it’s nothing at all
I can’t help but wander
People come and go

I was born and met you
And I loved you to death
My cold heart is dyed in blue
Even if you leave, I’m still here

Winter passes and spring finds us as we wither
My heart is bruised from this yearning

I’ll probably fall asleep alone again
Underneath that blue moonlight tonight
Even in my dreams, I’m searching for you
I sing this song as I wander around

(I’m singing my blues)
I become tamed by blue tears and blue sadness
(I’m singing my blues)
I sent my love flying on a drifting cloud oh oh

(I’m singing my blues)
I become tamed by blue tears and blue sadness
(I’m singing my blues)
I sent my love flying on a drifting cloud oh oh

Translator’s Notes
“When these tears dry remember my love vividly” – The literal translation is “Remember my love with moisture” which is more odd than TOP’s hair color. Let’s take the ~artistic~ interpretation route and say vividly cause he wants the person to remember with moisture… remember… freshly… yes.

“Add a dot to the character nim” -Nim typed in Korean as 님. It’s the highest honorific used today. If you add a dot to the ㅣ in the character, it becomes 남(nam). Nam means stranger.


3. Love Dust
My friend said something about you
And for no good reason I got angry when they said you seemed good
I don’t know why I was hoping that you were still somehow having a hard time because of me

Lately I’ve been singing songs without me even knowing that we once enjoyed listening to together
On days like today when I’m absorbed in my memories, for no reason, I miss you tonight

Back then, I was too young, and love was too difficult for me so I kept trying to avoid you
I became a burden, I became a disappointment. I ended it and made you cry

After today, you’ll turn to dust, what is love
If I seem sad, my tears are just an act, just like a dancing performance

When tomorrow comes, it’ll be like it was nothing
A new day will start and I’ll forget you and move on
I’ll stay here and smile while hoping
That you’ll just be happy

Do you remember? The first day we met
Our innocent smiles, full of Sauvignon Blanc
Loyal to you without a reason, while other times feisty opposition
My ending rage when I was faced with the reality that it was destiny for us to break up

Just in time, I heard a story on the radio that I sympathized with
Saying that they felt exactly the same right now
Wasn’t that person you? While thinking about it I got sleepy
Time really flies, I wonder if you’re doing well

Back then, I was too young, and love was too difficult for me so I kept trying to run away
In the end I became a burden, and I became a disappointment
Now it’s too late but

After today, you’ll turn to dust, what is love
If I seem sad, my tears are just an act, just like a dancing performance

When tomorrow comes, it’ll be like it was nothing
A new day will start and I’ll forget you and move on
I’ll stay here and smile while hoping
That you’ll just be happy

If one day, a day comes where we happen to pass by
And meet each other on the street
On that day, when we see each other happy with somebody else
I hope that we can both smile, so long

After today, you’ll turn to dust, what is love
If I seem sad, my tears are just an act, just like a dancing performance

When tomorrow comes, it’ll be like it was nothing
A new day will start and I’ll forget you and move on
I’ll stay here and smile while hoping
That you’ll just be happy


4. Bad Boy
G-Dragon
I was too much that night
I had no idea you would really leave me
Because the words “I’m sorry” were too hard for me to say
We’re coming to an end
Because of my filthy personality
We fought a hundred times a day over ridiculous things
You ran away while crying and I just looked around, thinking
You’ll come back by tomorrow
You’ll call me undoubtedly in the morning

Daesung
Baby I can’t do it, because I’m so awful, I want to treat you better but it’s not working out
Everyday & night I’m so mean cuz I’m so real so I’m sorry (but I can’t change)

G-Dragon
You love me but I’m sorry I’m a bad boy
Yeah you’re better off leaving, good bye, you’re a good girl
As time goes on, as you get to know me, you’d only be left with disappointment but

Taeyang
Baby don’t leave me I know you still love me why are you being like this? I’m telling you the truth, I need you my lay lay lay lay lady my lay lay lay lay lady

TOP
You say I’m different from regular guys and that it’s too difficult
You’re still too delicate just like a little girl
You laugh with me each day but next to you, I’m too immature
I put off our dates making excuses that I’m busy
I feel sorry and turn away from your hurt feelings
The bride of my dreams, is now just a friend
Both silent because we don’t have the heart to break up

Seungri
Baby I can’t do it, because I’m so awful, I want to treat you better but it’s not working out
Everday & night I’m so mean cuz I’m so real so I’m sorry (but I can’t change)

TOP
You love me but I’m sorry I’m a bad boy
Yeah you’re better off leaving, good bye, you’re a good girl
As time goes on, as you get to know me, you’d only be left with disappointment but

Taeyang
Baby don’t leave me I know you still love me why are you being like this? I’m telling you the truth, I need you my lay lay lay lay lady my lay lay lay lay lady

Seungri
Don’t say anything
Daesung
I pretended to be strong for no reason but
What I feel inside is different
Seungri
Don’t abandon me
Daesung
A person that can understand me the way you do
Taeyang
You know there’s nobody else
Baby oh you come back to me ye ye ye

G-Dragon
You love me but I’m sorry I’m a bad boy

5. Ain’t No Fun
Honestly? Our chemistry’s not working right now
I can’t help it, I got something to say
Listen

A kid like you ain’t no fun, I’m tired to be honest
To tell you the truth, I’ve been sick of you for a while
Even on the phone, even when we eat together
The problem is your attitude
Have you forgotten what a conversation is?

I tried for the both of us
But people’s feelings don’t work just by effort
Even if I hold your hand, even if I look at your face
I’m sorry but I don’t have any feelings for you now

I know, you know, why aren’t you answering?
We’ve become strangers at some point
I know, you know, why don’t you say anything?
Oh, we weren’t right since the beginning

Ain’t no fun, ain’t no fun, ain’t no fun, ain’t no fun
Cause you’re annoying till the end
Ain’t no fun, ain’t no fun, ain’t no fun, ain’t no fun
What are you standing around hesitating for, baby?

. Separating with a kid like you this way is too early
I really don’t want to part from a kid like you
I just wanna, what I want is
To get angry or get upset like other couples

We’re lukewarm, something’s flat
Both of us are dull, something’s awkward
When we love, do it passionately and not boringly
When I finish talking, girl, just show me your love

I know, you know, why aren’t you answering?
We’ve become strangers at some point
I know, you know, why don’t you say anything?
Oh, we weren’t right since the beginning

Ain’t no fun, ain’t no fun, ain’t no fun, ain’t no fun
Cause you’re pretty again till the end
Ain’t no fun, ain’t no fun, ain’t no fun, ain’t no fun
What are you standing around hesitating for, baby?

So what can I do if you know my feelings?
Show me yourself, we don’t have much time

A beautiful proud queen and a merciful scholar
It can’t be helped, I felt that it’s cause of the times
We confine each other sometimes for an unreasonable obsession
We’re like friends who don’t pretend to be innocent, it’s sad

I know, you know, why aren’t you answering?
We’ve become strangers at some point
I know, you know, why don’t you say anything?
Oh, we weren’t right since the beginning

Ain’t no fun, ain’t no fun, ain’t no fun, ain’t no fun
Cause you’re annoying till the end
Ain’t no fun, ain’t no fun, ain’t no fun, ain’t no fun
What are you standing around hesitating for, baby?

Ain’t no fun, ain’t no fun, ain’t no fun, ain’t no fun
Cause you’re annoying till the end
Ain’t no fun, ain’t no fun, ain’t no fun, ain’t no fun
What are you standing around hesitating for, baby?

7. Wings
Today, on a day like today, she says it
“Let’s break up, I’m sorry” of all days, on our anniversary
Today, in a crowd of several people, I shrink away
With my head lowered I avoid them (I hate this side of me)

Today it’s okay, shout it louder, ye something good is going to happennn
It’s fine, just for tonight, even though it’s so beautiful
It’s okay to cry louder ye
I’m going to hug youuuu I’m going to soar up and jump up in this moment
Woo hoo woo wa da da da da da uh uh uh ya ya ya ya ya ya right now

Today when I’m feeling really lonely
I’m so sad that I’m going to go crazy but
What do I do when no one can tell
Today I wonder why
It’s only me who struggles like this
Everyone who says they’re happy, it’s a lie I don’t believe it, say 1,2

Today it’s okay, shout it louder, ye something good is going to happennn
It’s fine, just for tonight, even though it’s so beautiful
It’s okay to cry louder ye
I’m going to hug youuuu I’m going to soar up and jump up in this moment
Woo hoo woo wa da da da da da uh uh uh ya ya ya ya ya ya right now

In this world
I’m going to become a sad hero
I’ll take the pain in your place
I’ll become your wings

I trust you, I trust you, trust in me too, trust in me too
Because all of this will pass as well

Today it’s okay, shout it louder, ye something good is going to happennn
It’s fine, just for tonight, even though it’s so beautiful
It’s okay to cry louder ye
I’m going to hug youuuu I’m going to soar up and jump up in this moment
Woo hoo woo wa da da da da da uh uh uh ya ya ya ya ya ya right now
