Epik High – Screen Time Lyrics (English Translation)
[Chorus: HOSHI]
How have you been?
How are things?
I worry about you
Day in, day out
I can’t stop checking up on you
Is work going well?
Are you taking care of yourself?
Do you have any regrets?
I’m just so-so
[Post-Chorus: Tablo, HOSHI]
Baby, I’m fine, don’t worry about me
I’ll be okay, I’m living my life too
Don’t cry
I’m just so-so
Baby, I’m fine, don’t worry about me
Stare at my phone till the world is asleep
Goodnight
[Verse 1: Tablo]
They say habits can kill
They’re right
I miss waking up to your eyes
Now I stare at them on a screen
You don’t know, but we haven’t been apart for a single day
In a way, I got you closer than before
No wonder I can’t get any work done
Both of my hands are occupied holding onto us
I keep forgetting there is no us
Until night returns and I give myself up to slumber
It’s hard to let go
[Verse 2: Mithra Jin]
In the end, we’re going through two different separations
I’m naked without you and my heart is cold
But you’re living as if nothing happened
You’re colder than I thought
From your words and happy photographs
It’s clear that my worries were in vain
I’m actually relieved
I was sorry that I’m getting better
[Chorus: HOSHI]
How have you been?
How are things?
I worry about you
Day in, day out
I can’t stop checking up on you
Is work going well?
Are you taking care of yourself?
Do you have any regrets?
I’m just so-so
[Post-Chorus: Tablo, HOSHI]
Baby, I’m fine, don’t worry about me
I’ll be okay, I’m living my life too
Don’t cry
I’m just so-so
Baby, I’m fine, don’t worry about me
Stare at my phone till the world is asleep
Goodnight
[Verse 3: Mithra Jin, Tablo]
Your smile was once an arrow that guided me
Now it pierces my heart
I used to hate the attention you gave me
But I have no place to return it, so I’ll keep it
Regret is meaningless I know
I’m really sorry for the time you spent with me
The days fade into the distant horizon
And your memories rise and fall, it’s late but—
I’m sorry
Never mind my outfit of the day
You look good in everything
It’s all right, your brand of happiness
Never fit me anyway
Somebody take my phone away
I’m done with all these memories
I’m just trying to kill time
I’m sick of all this screen time
[Chorus: HOSHI]
How have you been?
Are you taking care of yourself?
Are you broken like me?
I wonder what you’re eating, drinking these days
And finding happiness in
I wonder what you’re wearing today
And where you are headed
I wonder who makes you laugh
And holds you instead of me
I’m just curious
I’m just sorry
This is how I’ve been
