[intro] (slow breath, faint heartbeat sample) dripping gold, but it’s bittersweet taste of you still on my teeth 숨길 수 없어, it’s in my blood i want love, not just the touch [verse 1] 얼음 같은 눈빛 속에 너의 그림자 스며들어 every kiss felt like a promise but your love was never honest mirror on the wall, who’s the liar now? i see the cracks but i still bow to the ghost of what we used to be a poison wrapped in luxury [pre-chorus] 달콤하게 타오른 fantasy 끝내 남은 건 pain and jealousy 너의 손끝에 사라진 light i’m still tasting you tonight [chorus] you left your aftertaste, in my veins, in my grace love was fake, but i still crave your face touch me slow, but you fade away every word you said still stains i wanted love, not masquerade but you’re the ghost i can’t erase now i’m haunted by the aftertaste [verse 2] 너의 향기, 사라져도 입술엔 아직 남아있어 it’s a curse, i whisper your name i swore i’d stop, but i play the same game 너 없는 밤은 so divine cause pain reminds me that you were mine a fool for love, a fool for pain 달콤한 독이 내 심장에 남아 [pre-chorus] 손끝 닿을 듯한 illusion 벗어날 수 없는 confusion 너의 온기, 기억 속 trace i keep tasting your embrace [chorus] you left your aftertaste, in my veins, in my grace love was fake, but i still crave your face touch me slow, but you fade away every word you said still stains i wanted love, not masquerade but you’re the ghost i can’t erase now i’m haunted by the aftertaste [rap bridge] (half korean, half english) black sugar, drippin’ down slow 너의 거짓말도 beautiful glow 나는 몰랐지, 그게 끝이란 걸 이제 남은 건 memory and smoke choke on your name, i still breathe it in 사랑은 죄야, i confess my sin you say “forever,” then walk away the scent of you never fades [final chorus] you left your aftertaste, deep in my veins love was a game, i lost in flames you were the light i couldn’t chase so now i live with your aftertaste 달빛 아래, i fade in pain whispering your name again i’m still haunted by the aftertaste [outro] (softly, almost whispered) 한입의 사랑이 이렇게 아픈 줄 몰랐어 you taste like heaven but burn like fate i still crave the aftertaste
