Genius English Translations
IU - 잔혹동화 (Scary Fairy Tale) (English Translation)
When this night passes
You will come to wake me
By stepping on the tears
I shed one by one
When that door opens
The light will reach me
And forever after
I will live happily

When the clock rings 12
I'll awake from my dreams
And amidst the blessings of others
We will be dancing together

I breathe (You will never know)
I am alive (Everyone fails to love)
I can believe in at least that truth

Nothing lasts forever, nothing really matters

Maybe because the road that leads to me is perilous
You are lost
But one day, I will be smiling
As I fall asleep in your arms

I cannot go (I will never know)
In case you cannot find me (Everyone tells me so)
In case this wait bursts like a bubble
Nothing lasts forever, nothing really matters [x4]
