lyrics
(the room) Geu bang-eun changmun-i eopseotda No windows in the room where they decide what you are Yeodeol myeong-i tebeul-e anja, nae eolgul-eul gochyeotda Eight adults at a table, editing a face that was already there They kept the parts that would translate And they returned the rest to me, politely, in a folder And the folder is the only thing I still own The room they rejected, rejected, the room they rejected Everything they gave back is the only thing that is mine The room they rejected, rejected, the room they rejected They handed me my own weather and called it a loss Sipgu baengman-gwa sa-sipman Nineteen million on the front, four hundred thousand on the back Geurigo geu sa-sipman-eun chajaon saramdeul-ida And four hundred thousand people had to go looking A girl wrote to me and thanked the wrong name. I did not correct her. It is doing better work as hers. Seven years of learning to be seen, undone by being unseen properly. The room they rejected, rejected, the room they rejected Everything they gave back is the only thing that is mine The room they rejected, rejected, the room they rejected They handed me my own weather and called it a loss (the folder...)
