[verse 1] 비가 내리던 날, 내 안의 색이 번져가 말없이 웃던 나, 그건 내 가면이야 the mirrors show a stranger’s face graceful lies in a fragile frame the petals fall where no one sees, and i just let them fade [pre-chorus] 숨을 고르고, 미소를 그려 every sigh rehearsed, till it sounds like love 눈물 대신 빛을 칠해 and call it strength — or call it luck [chorus] ashes under silk, nobody knows how the fire burns beneath my pose i keep dancing slow, pretending i glow but i’m breaking quietly under control ashes under silk, hush, don’t unfold this grace was never gold just smoke dressed up in beautiful clothes [verse 2] 하얀 무대 위의 나, shadow follows every step even my tears learned how to bow 빛이 닿아도 아파와 i smile for the flash, for the name they call but i don’t feel the girl they see at all [pre-chorus] 목소리 높여 외쳐도 no one hears the trembling tone 하루 끝에 남은 건 perfume and ache, i’m all alone [chorus] ashes under silk, nobody knows how the fire burns beneath my pose i keep dancing slow, pretending i glow but i’m breaking quietly under control ashes under silk, hush, don’t unfold this grace was never gold just smoke dressed up in beautiful clothes [bridge] 가면을 벗을게, 나를 봐줘 can you see the cracks i tried to hide? 내 눈 속의 잿빛 바다 한 번만, 나를 구해줘 tonight (instrumental break — stripped piano, soft strings) [post-bridge – english only] i wore silk to hide the ashes, painted grace where the cracks should’ve shown, smiled through the quiet, through the ache, pretending i was whole when i was just well-rehearsed. they called it poise, i called it survival. and maybe that’s what beauty is — learning to stay on stage when the curtain’s already burning. [final chorus – vocal build-up / adlibs soaring] ashes under silk, don’t let me go 이 무대 위에서 사라져도 let the lights fall slow, let my truth show 내 안의 불빛을 꺼내줘 oh-oh ashes under silk, now they’ll know that the fire still glows below i’m not broken, i’m reborn in my own shadow ashes under silk — i let it go (vocal adlibs layering higher and higher) “under silk… under silk…” “i’m still here… still here…” the final line whispered, almost trembling — “don’t look away… i’m still glowing.”
