Song Meaning of “애상” by 10cm
“애상” by 10cm is a reflective and melancholic song about unrequited love. Despite not being able to express his feelings of love and longing, the singer ponders what might have been if he had taken the risk. He feels painfully aware that he had made a mistake, and that the lost opportunity of love will haunt him forever.
The singer reflects on what might have been as he allows himself to feel the pain of missing the chance to be with someone he loves. He is terrified to open himself up to the possibility of a denied love and the emptiness that comes with it. He attempts to shake off these thoughts, but fears that this regret will stay with him for a long time.
The song expresses the lingering sadness of a lost love that cannot be recovered, and set against the slowly building pain of regret, it encourages listeners to confront their own inner voice and take the chance on love if only to experience it once more.
