Song Lyrics

It’s you and me in this world, 내게로 다시 와, tie me
날 구원할 거라면, just come kiss me and bite me (oh, babe)

혈관 속 memory, 널 찾던 내 세포는 scream
이젠 알아, what I had to be? 운명은 우릴 다시 발견했지
Got me bad, bad, bad, 나를 괴롭힌 뭔갈 찾아 헤매는 dreams
떠올랐어, when you next to me, 잠시 잊혀진 나의 이름이

This blood’s pumpin’ crazy
(Oh, my, oh, my God)
‘Cause I know you’ll save me

Come here and get some (some), 남겨줘 on my neck
네 거란 증거 (거), just come over and bite me
Come here and get some (some), 널 찬미할 sidekick
그게 내 숙명 (명), just come over and bite me

It’s you and me in this world, 내게로 다시 와, tie me
날 구원할 거라면, just come kiss me and bite me (oh, babe)
It’s you and me in this world, 이 어둠 속에서 light me (ooh, ooh-ooh)
기회를 줄 거라면, just come kiss me and bite me, yeah-eh-eh

너에게 바칠게 너를 지킬 brave heart
과거에 버린 내 어리석은 오만
Come to me, make it right
다시 연결해 줘 날, 삼켜 날, yeah-eh

This blood’s pumpin’ crazy
(Oh, my, oh, my God)
‘Cause I know you’ll save me

Come here and get some (some), 남겨줘 on my neck
네 거란 증거 (거), just come over and bite me
Come here and get some (some), 널 찬미할 sidekick
그게 내 숙명 (명), just come over and bite me

It’s you and me in this world, 내게로 다시 와, tie me
날 구원할 거라면, just come kiss me and bite me (oh, babe)
It’s you and me in this world, 이 어둠 속에서 light me (ooh, ooh-ooh)
기회를 줄 거라면, just come kiss me and bite me, yeah-eh-eh

Song Lyrics (English)

[Intro: Sunoo, Heeseung]
It’s you and me in this world
Again, come to me, tie me
If you are goin’ to save me
Just come kiss me and bite me (Oh, babe)

[Verse 1: Jungwon, Sunghoon, Jake, NI-KI]
Memory in my veins
My cells in search of you scream
Now I know what I had to be
Fate discovered us once again
Got me bad, bad, bad torturin’ me
Dreams wander lookin’ for somethin’
It comes to me when you next to me
My name that was briefly forgotten

[Refrain: Jay, Sunoo]
(Oh, my, oh, my God)
This blood’s pumpin’ crazy
(Oh, my, oh, my God)
‘Cause I know you’ll save me

[Pre-Chorus: Ni-Ki, Sunghoon, Jay, Jake]
Come here and get some (Some)
Leave the mark on my neck
That it’s yours
Just come over and bite me
Come here and get some (Some)
Sidekick that worships you
That’s my destiny
Just come over and bite me

[Chorus: Jungwon, Heeseung]
It’s you and me in this world
Again, come to me, tie me
If you are goin’ to save me
Just come kiss me and bite me (Oh, babe)
It’s you and me in this world
In this darkness, light me
If you’ll give me a chance
Just come kiss me and bite me, yeah-eh-eh

[Verse 2: NI-KI, Sunghoon, Heeseung]
I dedicate to you the brave heart that’ll protect you
My foolish arrogance, I tossed away in the past
Come to me, make it right
Please connect me again
Devour me

[Refrain: Sunoo, Jay]
(Oh, my, oh, my God)
This blood’s pumpin’ crazy
(Oh, my, oh, my God)
‘Cause I know you’ll save me

[Pre-Chorus: Sunghoon, NI-KI, Jay, Jungwon]
Come here and get some (Some)
Leave the mark on my neck
That it’s yours
Just come over and bite me
Come here and get some (Some)
Sidekick that worships you
That’s my destiny
Just come over and bite me

Review Summary:

ENHYPEN’s “Bite Me” is a bold and seductive track that marks a significant shift in the group’s artistic direction, blending dark fantasy aesthetics with addictive pop production. As the lead single of their Dark Blood era, the song dives deep into themes of fate, longing, and supernatural love, serving as a narrative centerpiece for their ongoing “Dark Moon: The Blood Altar” universe.

With haunting melodies and minimalist beats, “Bite Me” creates an atmosphere that is both alluring and eerie. The choreography is sensual and symbolic, emphasizing the idea of surrender and the deep, mystical bond between the members and their fated soulmate. The recurring lyric “You and me, it’s destiny” captures the essence of the storyline—reunion with a reincarnated lover whose presence stirs memories of a tragic, powerful past.

The music video enhances the narrative with gothic visuals: ancient halls, blood rituals, and moonlit encounters that echo the group’s vampire lore. ENHYPEN fully embraces their dark personas, delivering an emotionally charged performance that feels cinematic.
