ENGLISH 

Hold me, before I collapse

Hug me, before I cry 

Hold me, before I fall 

Live, live with me 

You should have stepped on me,

So that I can at least brush against your foot 

I’ll just take that and go away 

If not pull me in, at least with your hand feeling comfortable 

Send me off without feeling any pain 

‘Click’ 

Smile, wait for the flash 

Smile, smile prettily 

Once you pull the trigger, 

We’ll become separated into two 

For the last time, shall I hold your hand

How about that 

Because the moment it flashes, we’ll become strangers

A glittering love only flashes momentarily 

Now that I’ve let you go, seems like you shine even more than before

Why are we more precious now that we’re strangers 

I’m going to be ruined again, so that I can receive your pity 

I’ll just take that and go away 

You should have disappeared, so that I can sleep in peace 

Send me off without feeling any pain 

‘Click’ 

Smile, wait for the flash 

Smile, smile prettily 

Once you pull the trigger, 

We’ll become separated into two 

For the last time, shall I hold your hand

How about that 

KOREAN

잡아줘 내가 무너지기 전에

안아줘 내가 울기 직전에

잡아줘 내가 떨어지기 전에

살아줘 나와 같이 살아줘

 

차라리 밟아줘 너의 발이라도 닿게

그냥 그거 먹고 떨어져 줄게

아니면 당겨줘 너의 손이 좀 편하게

나를 고통 없이 편하게 보내줘

찰칵

 

Smile wait for the flash

Smile 웃어 예쁘게

방아쇠를 당기면 하나였던

우린 둘이 될 거야

마지막으로 손이나 잡고 있을까

어때

 

반짝이는 순간 우린 남남이니까

반짝이는 사랑은 순간 반짝인 거야

너를 놓아 주니 너는 더 반짝이구나

왜 우린 남남일 때가 더 소중할까

 

나는 또 망가져 너의 동정이나 받게

그냥 그거 먹고 떨어져 줄게

차라리 사라져 잠이나 잘래 편하게

나를 고통 없이 편하게 보내줘

찰칵

 

Smile wait for the flash

Smile 웃어 예쁘게

방아쇠를 당기면 하나였던

우린 둘이 될 거야

마지막으로 손이나 잡고 있을까

어때

Trivia: 

• The idea of 'click' is actually a word play — when you press the camera shutter, there’s a ‘click sound’, which is similar to the sound that’s made when you pull the gun trigger… so when the person finally takes the photo, he’s actually signaling the end (of the relationship). 

• This song was inspired by the scene with the quote "smile, wait for the flash" in Deadpool.
