SWIM BTS lyrics Lyrics
[Chorus: Jung Kook, Jimin]
Swim, swim
Water falling off your skin
Swim, swim
I could spend a lifetime watching you
Swim, swim
This is how it all begins
Swim, swim
I just wanna dive, I just wanna dive
[Verse 1: RM]
Bad world, gone away and I still wake up in this mad world
Name a place that I could breathe on this map, world
Lookin' like a goody, goody in this bad world, bad world
Don't know how to act, girl
I'm in the deep, tell me, where the hell you at, girl?
Oh, you ain't even gotta love me bad, girl
You know that I'm never holdin' back, girl
Yeah
[Pre-Chorus: Jung Kook]
So easy, don't make it so hard
Nights like these, I just wanna get lost
Right here with the moon and the sharks
I ain't gotta think 'bout a thing, baby, I just
[Chorus: Jimin, V]
Swim, swim
Water falling off your skin
Swim, swim
I could spend a lifetime watching you
Swim (Swim), swim (Swim)
This is how it all begins
Swim, swim
I just wanna dive, I just wanna dive
[Verse 2: SUGA]
Water, water so deep, water so deep
Take it off the ground, I ain't never gettin' cold feet
Yeah, you know me, yeah, you know me
Sittin' on the shore, now I'm ready for the whole sea
I can feel the high waves comin' (Yeah)
Why you run away? You can run in (Yeah)
Salt on my tongue, she's stunnin' (Yeah)
You're the only place that I wanna be, yeah
[Chorus: Jung Kook, Jin]
Swim, swim
Water falling off your skin
Swim, swim
I could spend a lifetime watching you
Swim (Swim), swim (Swim)
This is how it all begins
Swim, swim
I just wanna dive, I just wanna dive (Hey)
[Verse 3: j-hope]
Splash (Splash), drift (Drift)
I make waves with my two fins (Two fins)
Splash (Woo), drip (Drip)
I just wanna take it across the line
Under here, we don't chase the time
Baby, everything can't be so sad (So sad)
Turn my face from the land
I just wanna dive, I just wanna dive
[Chorus: V, Jin]
Swim, swim
Water falling off your skin
Swim, swim
I could spend a lifetime watching you
Swim (Swim), swim (Swim)
Let it all begin
Swim, swim
I just wanna dive, I just wanna dive
SWIM BTS lyrics - English Translation
[Coro: Jung Kook, Jimin]
Nada, nada
El agua resbala en tu piel
Nada, nada
Podría pasarme la vida mirándote
Nada, nada
Así es como todo comienza
Nada, nada
Solo quiero sumergirme, solo quiero sumergirme
[Verso 1: RM]
Mundo malo, desaparece y aún despierto en este mundo loco
Nombra un lugar donde pueda respirar en este mapa, mundo
Parezco un buen chico en este mal mundo, mal mundo
No sé cómo actuar, chica
Estoy en lo profundo, dime, ¿dónde diablos estás, chica?
Oh, ni siquiera tienes que amarme mal, chica
Sabes que nunca me contengo, chica
Sí
[Pre-Coro: Jung Kook]
Tan fácil, no lo hagas tan difícil
Noches como estas, solo quiero perderme
Aquí con la luna y los tiburones
No tengo que pensar en nada, cariño, solo
[Coro: Jimin, V]
Nada, nada
El agua resbala en tu piel
Nada, nada
Podría pasarme la vida mirándote
Nada (Nada), nada (Nada)
Así es como todo comienza
Nada, nada
Solo quiero sumergirme, solo quiero sumergirme
[Verso 2: SUGA]
Agua, agua tan profunda, agua tan profunda
Sácala del suelo, nunca me da miedo
Sí, me conoces, sí, me conoces
Sentado en la orilla, ahora estoy listo para todo el mar
Puedo sentir las olas altas venir (Sí)
¿Por qué huyes? Puedes correr (Sí)
Sal en mi lengua, ella es impresionante (Sí)
Eres el único lugar donde quiero estar, sí
[Coro: Jung Kook, Jin]
Nada, nada
El agua resbala en tu piel
Nada, nada
Podría pasarme la vida mirándote
Nada (Nada), nada (Nada)
Así es como todo comienza
Nada, nada
Solo quiero sumergirme, solo quiero sumergirme
[Verso 3: j-hope]
Salpicar (Salpicar), flotar (Flotar)
Hago olas con mis dos aletas (Dos aletas)
Salpicar (Uuh), gotear (Gotear)
Solo quiero cruzarlo
Aquí abajo, no perseguimos el tiempo
Cariño, no todo puede ser tan triste (Tan triste)
Aparto mi rostro de la tierra
Solo quiero sumergirme, solo quiero sumergirme
[Coro: V, Jin]
Nada, nada
El agua resbala en tu piel
Nada, nada
Podría pasarme la vida mirándote
Nada (Nada), nada (Nada)
Que todo comience
Nada, nada
Solo quiero sumergirme, solo quiero sumergirme
Meaning of SWIM BTS lyrics
BTS's 'SWIM' is a profound exploration of emotional vulnerability and the desire for escape through the metaphor of swimming. The song uses water imagery to represent both the overwhelming nature of modern life ('Bad world, gone away and I still wake up in this mad world') and the healing power of love ('I could spend a lifetime watching you'). The chorus's repetitive 'swim, swim' creates a hypnotic effect, mirroring the cyclical nature of both water currents and human emotions. Each member brings unique perspectives: RM's verse critiques societal pressures, SUGA's rap embodies confident diving into challenges, while j-hope's section highlights playful freedom. The Spanish translation maintains these dual themes of struggle ('mundo loco') and transcendence ('solo quiero sumergirme'). What makes this song particularly resonant is its universal applicability - the 'water' can represent depression, creative blocks, or relationship challenges that listeners must navigate. The pre-chorus ('Nights like these, I just wanna get lost') speaks directly to millennials' escapism desires, while the oceanic imagery suggests both danger ('sharks') and boundless possibility ('ready for the whole sea'). Musical choices enhance the meaning - Jungkook's fluid vocals mimic water movements, while the trap-influenced beat creates a sense of both weight and buoyancy. The song ultimately suggests that surrender ('I just wanna dive') rather than resistance leads to true freedom, making it both a romantic ballad and philosophical statement about navigating life's currents.
