Paroles et traduction Epik High feat. OH HYUK - HOME IS FAR AWAY

HOME IS FAR AWAY

갈 길이 먼데
빈차가 없네
비가 올 것 같은데
처진 어깨엔 오늘의 무게
잠시 내려놓고 싶어
Home is far away

달라진 게 없네
홀로 남은 놀이터에서
그 높은 턱걸이에 오른 뒤
여태 까치발 인생
내게 요구되는 건
늘 높게 뻗은 두 손보다 조금 위
세상의 눈높이, 갈수록 에버레스트
정상을 향할수록 산더미만 되는 스트레스
I know I can never rest
내가 가진 불만들을 잠재워 줄
수면제는 없으니 혀를 물고 밤 새워

어릴 적
줄 서는 것부터 가르쳐 준 이유 이젠 선명해졌어
복잡한 인간관계, 그 자체가 역설
관계만 있고 인간이 낄 틈 하나 없어
평범해지는 게 두려워서 꾸던 꿈
이젠 평범한 게 부럽군
As I stand all alone in the rain
자라지 않으면 성장통도 그저 pain

갈 길이 먼데
빈차가 없네
비가 올 것 같은데
처진 어깨엔 오늘의 무게
잠시 내려놓고 싶어
Home is far away

갈수록 두려워
뛰고 있지만 뭘 위해서였는지 잊은 두 발과 심장
그저 짐이 되어버린 꿈
두고 달리는 게 내게 유일한 희망
한 걸음만 더 떼라 부추기네
고개 들었더니 앞은 낭떠러진데
뒤를 보니 길게 줄 선 많은 기대가
날 지탱하는 척하며 등을 떠미네

언젠가 찍고 싶었던 마음의 쉼표가
숫자들 사이 뒤엉킨 이상
계산적인 이 세상이 들이미는 손
잡기 싫지만, 빈손 되는 게 더 겁이 나
붙잡아도 갈 길 가는 게 시간 뿐이겠어?
먹구름 낀 하늘을 보며
한때 나도 꿈이라는 게 있었는데
오늘 밤은 잠들기도 어렵네

날 위해 잠시
멈춰주면 안 될까요?
더는 걷기가 힘든데
바람이 불고 아직도

갈 길이 먼데
빈차가 없네
비가 올 것 같은데
처진 어깨엔 오늘의 무게
잠시 내려놓고 싶어
Home is far away

이 넓은 세상에 내 자린 없나?
붐비는 거리에 나 혼자인가?
날 위한 빈자리가 하나 없나?
Home is so far away

내가 해야 할 일
벌어야 할 돈 말고도 뭐가 있었는데
내가 해야 할 일
벌어야 할 돈 말고도 뭐가 있었는데
내가 해야 할 일
벌어야 할 돈 말고도 뭐가 있었는데
내가 가야 할 길
나에게도 꿈같은 게 뭐가 있었는데
있었는데
꿈 있었는데

HOME IS FAR AWAY

The road is long,
But there are no empty cabs.
It feels like rain is coming,
My slumped shoulders carry the weight of today.
I just want to put it down for a while.
Home is far away.

Nothing's changed.
In the lonely playground,
After reaching that high bar,
I've been on tiptoes all my life.
What's demanded of me
Is always just a bit above my outstretched hands.
The world's expectations, like an ever-growing Everest.
The closer I get to the summit, the more stress piles up like a mountain.
I know I can never rest.
There's no sleeping pill to silence my frustrations,
So I bite my tongue and stay up all night.

When I was young,
The reason they taught me to stand in line is clear now.
Complex human relationships, a paradox in itself.
There are only connections, no space for actual humans.
The dreams I chased, fearing to be ordinary,
Now, I envy the ordinary.
As I stand all alone in the rain,
Without growth, growing pains are just pain.

The road is long,
But there are no empty cabs.
It feels like rain is coming,
My slumped shoulders carry the weight of today.
I just want to put it down for a while.
Home is far away.

I'm getting more scared.
My legs and heart are running, but I've forgotten what I was running for.
Dreams that have become burdens,
Leaving them behind is my only hope.
They urge me to take just one more step,
But when I look up, there's a cliff ahead.
Looking back, there's a long line of expectations,
Pretending to support me while pushing me forward.

The comma I once wanted to place in my heart,
Entangled amongst numbers, an anomaly.
The hand offered by this calculating world,
I don't want to take it, but I'm even more afraid of empty hands.
Is time the only thing that keeps moving forward even when held?
Looking at the cloudy sky,
I once had something called a dream,
Tonight, sleep is hard to come by.

For my sake,
Could you stop for a moment?
I can't walk anymore,
The wind is blowing and still,

The road is long,
But there are no empty cabs.
It feels like rain is coming,
My slumped shoulders carry the weight of today.
I just want to put it down for a while.
Home is far away.

Is there no place for me in this vast world?
Am I alone in this crowded street?
Is there not one empty seat for me?
Home is so far away.

The things I have to do,
What was there besides the money I had to make?
The things I have to do,
What was there besides the money I had to make?
The things I have to do,
What was there besides the money I had to make?
The path I have to walk,
Did I even have something like a dream?
I had it,
I had a dream.
