미제 (untitled) (feat. Hyunjin)

Stray Kids' song "미제 (untitled) (feat. Hyunjin)" delves into the complex emotions surrounding a breakup, where the protagonist reflects on the authenticity of their past relationship and the pain of parting ways. The lyrics suggest a sense of self-awareness and guilt, as the speaker acknowledges that they may have been the cause of their partner's emotional distance. The coldness in the partner's eyes is seen as a possible reaction to the speaker's actions or lack thereof.

The song's chorus questions the nature of the love that was shared, pondering whether it was genuine or merely a cowardly way to alleviate loneliness. This introspection reveals a deep sense of regret and the realization that the relationship was perhaps more superficial than the speaker initially believed. The use of the term 'cowardly' to describe both the love and the breakup indicates a self-critical perspective, where the speaker admits to taking the easy way out instead of facing the challenges of the relationship.

The imagery of rain and thunder metaphorically represents the dynamic between the two individuals, with the partner being emotionally open and vulnerable (rain) and the speaker bringing turmoil and pain (thunder). The song ends with a wish for the partner to find happiness after forgetting the speaker, emphasizing a final act of selflessness and the desire for the partner's well-being despite the flawed nature of their past love.
