(the translated lyric does not make much sense so I will replace it later when I found better translation)
The sinking sunset is visible like me
Although powerless, turns around and leaves
more than not having the strength to hold, shoudn’t hold
like this it is ending
hoping to see some other day far away
This love
wasn’t a love
It seems better to be nonexistent in this worlds cold love
better than me who embraces memories
right, I have to go to my place
have to hurry and go
oh, with that promise of mine
will I be able to forget you
too difficult heart, too difficult love
my life that is left makes me frightened
I’m stifled, it takes my breath
I want to cry out loud
can’t hold my love just with love
right, I have to find my place
absolutely have to stop grabbing you
oh, no matter how hard I try
because I live I can’t forget
too difficult heart, too difficult love
my life that is left makes me frightened
I’m stifled, it takes my breath
I want to cry out loud
can’t hold my love just with love
better than ending like this
better than sending you away like this
the mistakes that hurt each other make our love stop
(too difficult heart)
why did I love you
why did I confess that
my life that is left makes me frightened (am I too rushed?)
I’m stifled, it takes my breath, I want to cry out loud (now I’ll send you)
can’t hold my love just with love
but it hurts too much…

지는 노을이 나처럼 보이네 무력해도 돌아서 떠나네
잡을 힘이 없다기 보단 잡아서는 안되는 거지
이대로 끝내는 거야
아주 먼훗날 깨닫길 바라지 이 사랑은 사랑이 아니었기를
어이없이 식은 사랑이 허무한게 나을 것 같아 추억만 껴안은 날보다
그래 제자리로 가야지 어서 서둘러 걸어야지
허나 이런 내 다짐으로 과연 널 잊을 수 있을런지
너무 힘든 가슴이 너무 힘든 사랑이 남은 나의 삶을 두렵게 한다 오~
숨막힐 듯 답답해 크게 울고 싶은 나 사랑은 사랑만으론 갖지 못하니
그래 내 자릴 찾아야지 절대 널 잡지 말아야지
허나 아무리 노력해도 살아선 잊을 수 없을텐데
너무 힘든 가슴이 너무 힘든 사랑이 남은 나의 삶을 두렵게 한다 오~
숨막힐 듯 답답해 크게 울고 싶은 나 사랑은 사랑만으론 갖지 못하니
차라리 이렇게 끝내는게 차라리 이렇게 보내는게
서로가 다치는 잘못을 사랑을 멈추게 하는 거야 워~
왜 너를 사랑했는지 왜 그걸 고백했는지
내가 너무 무모한 건지 이제는 보내자
사랑은 사랑만으론 갖지 못하니
하지만 너무 아프다..
