My Fault (반성문)

JUST B's 'My Fault (반성문)' is a poignant exploration of love, self-blame, and the feeling of being lost in the vastness of one's emotions. The song uses celestial imagery to convey the depth and complexity of these feelings. The lyrics describe a scenario where the protagonist feels like a small satellite orbiting around a significant other, unable to reach them. This metaphor highlights the sense of distance and longing that permeates the song.

The recurring line 'It's my fault' suggests a deep sense of self-blame and responsibility for the emotional turmoil experienced. The protagonist walks among 'stars,' representing the significant other, but loses their way in the dazzling light. This imagery of being blinded by love and losing one's path is a powerful metaphor for the confusion and disorientation that often accompany intense emotions. The mention of the 'coldly shining moon' and 'losing light' further emphasizes the theme of isolation and the fear of losing oneself in the process of loving someone else.

Despite the feelings of blame and confusion, there is a persistent hope and determination to stay close to the loved one, even if it means losing one's own light. The protagonist's resolve to remain by their side, no matter the cost, speaks to the depth of their commitment and love. The song's emotional landscape is rich with the tension between self-sacrifice and the desire for connection, making it a relatable and moving piece for anyone who has experienced the complexities of love.
