[Korean:]

이불을 덮고 펑펑 울었는데
풀리지 않아 오히려 더 답답해
억지로 괜찮은 척 웃었는데
거울 속에 비치는 내가 초라해

걱정하지 마 아프지 않아
언제나 난 강하고 씩씩해
근데 왜 이렇게 슬픈 건데

내가 어른이 되면
내 키가 좀 더 크면
정말 행복할 줄 알았는데 난 왜

힘이 들 때면
어린아이처럼
눈물을 참지 못하는 건지
어른이 됐는데

난 나일 먹었는데 또 어리광만 느네
이 넓은 세상은 내 앞을 가로막지 두껍게
(답답해)

올라갈수록 점점 높게
어른은 원래 이런 건가요

포기하지 말아
쓰러지지 말아
(그런 건 나도 다 안다구요)
다른 게 필요해요

축 처진 내 어깨 위에
책임감이라는 무게
삐그덕대 위태롭게
근데 다 컸대

걱정하지 마 아프지 않아
언제나 난 강하고 씩씩해
근데 왜 이렇게 눈물이 나는지 몰라

내가 어른이 되면
내 키가 좀 더 크면
정말 행복할 줄 알았는데 난 왜

힘이 들 때면
어린아이처럼
눈물을 참지 못하는 건지
어른이 됐는데

시간이 흐르면
이해할 수 있을까
시간이 흐르면
진짜 어른이 될까

이상해 예전엔 습관처럼
(어른이고 싶다고 노래를 불렀는데)

보기엔 다 컸지만
난 아직 여리고 여린 아이라구요
눈물아 멈춰라

너무 다그치지 마
오늘까지만 울게
부디 그때까지 내 손을 놓지 마

내가 어른이 되면
내 키가 좀 더 크면
정말 행복할 줄 알았는데 난 왜

힘이 들 때면 (힘이 들 때면)
어린아이처럼 (어린아이처럼)
눈물을 참지 못하는 건지
어른이 됐는데

[English translation:]

I went under my blanket and cried and cried
But I don't feel better, actually I'm even more frustrated
I was forcing myself to smile, pretending like I'm OK
But my reflection in the mirror looks so pitiful

Don't worry, I'm not in pain
I'm always strong and bold
But why am I so sad?

When I become a grown up
When I grow a little taller
I thought I'd really be happy, but why

When things get hard
Like a child
I can't hold back my tears
Even though I'm a grown up now

I've gotten older but my childish whines keep growing
This big world is blocking my way
(So frustrating)

The higher you go
The more you become a grown up, is it always like this?

Don't give up
Don't fall down
(I know all of that)
I need something else

On top of my sagging shoulders
Is the weight of responsibility
I'm limping, dangerously
But they say I'm all grown up

Don't worry, I'm not in pain
I'm always strong and bold
But why am I so sad?

When I become a grown up
When I grow a little taller
I thought I'd really be happy, but why

When things get hard
Like a child
I can't hold back my tears
Even though I'm a grown up now

After time passes
Will I be able to understand?
After time passes
Will I become a true grown up?

It's strange, in the past
(I used to always say I want to be grown up)

I may seem like I'm all grown up
But I'm still a soft-hearted child
Tears, please stop

Don't scold me too much
Let me just cry for today
Please don't let go of my hand till then

When I become a grown up
When I grow a little taller
I thought I'd really be happy, but why

When things get hard
Like a child
I can't hold back my tears
Even though I'm a grown up now
