SHINee – Lucifer (English) lyrics
[Onew] Even if I try to avoid you, I can't find a place to hide
[Taemin]I'm trapped by you, who I can't even deny
[Jonghyun] If it was love, if you really loved me, don't do this to me

[Jonghyun] Her whisper is the Lucifer,
The Lucifer

[All] If you tie me down and trap me
Then the love is also tied down
The future is also tied down
It can't grow anymore
Freely empty yourself and look at me
I'll fill you only, I'll completely fill you only

Your undeniable spell is the Lucifer
Your undeniable magic is the Lucifer
When I approach you
With your angelic face
Say the reason you live is for me
Say it

[Key] When I first saw you, I stopped for a short time
As if someone was tightly seizing my heart, not letting it go
[Taemin] (Still) You took all, all, all, all, all, all of my heart just like that
[Jonghyun] You make my heart burn out when you're not here

[All] If you tie me down and trap me
Then the love is also tied down
The future is also tied down
It can't grow anymore
Freely empty yourself and look at me
I'll fill you only, I'll completely fill you only
Loverholic, robotronic, loverholic, robotronic

[Jonghyun] The love stories I shared with you
[Onew] You look towards the same places I do
[Jonghyun] When we feel that we can't get any more perfect
[Minho] Only stare at me, you want me more, more, more, more, more, more
[Taemin] Only look at me, you're the center of everything, thing, thing, thing, thing, thing

[Onew] Since before, something has been wrong, you've been weird
[Key] The love I knew left my side, one by one
[Jonghyun] All I have is you

[All] If you tie me down and trap me
Then the love is also tied down
The future is also tied down
It can't grow anymore
Freely empty yourself and look at me
I'll fill you only, I'll completely fill you only

[Onew] I feel like I've become a clown trapped in a glass castle
[Taemin] I dance for you, who will never be satisfied
[Key] You look into me openly, touching my brain
I think I've become a fool
[Taemin] I think I'm only getting more and more attracted to you


[All] Loverholic, robotronic, loverholic, robotronic

[Onew] It's not that I hate you or that I dislike you
It's just that kind of stare is a burden is all
[Jonghyun] I'm not going anywhere
I've waited like this by only looking at you

[Minho] Your stare captures me
As the days went by, it became sharper
I'm tired of your obsession
I've been cut a lot, my heart is bleeding
When it's about time for me to pass out
She comes to me like an angel, saying "I love you"
Even though I knew it was really you
You really confused me

[All] If you tie me down and trap me
Then the love is also tied down
The future is also tied down
It can't grow anymore
Freely empty yourself and look at me
I'll fill you only, I'll completely fill you only

[Onew] I feel like I've become a clown trapped in a glass castle
[Minho] Leave me alone, when I'm free, I'll be able to truly love you
[Onew] Leave me alone, don't make me sick of you
[Key] So I can truly look at you


[All] If you tie me down and trap me
Then love is also tied down
The future is also tied down
It can't grow anymore
Loverholic, robotronic, loverholic, robotronic
Your undeniable spell is the Lucifer

    Id say its about a relationship in which the guy feels trapped by the woman, who he refers to as 'lucifer', or indeed the devil. He wants to love her how he wants to, but she is constantly wanting more and trying to shape the relationship to how she wants it. This is why they say 'if you tie the love down then the future is tied down' - let him love her freely, he doesn't want to leave but wishes things were better. So she is a devil of sorts - keeping him in a situation he doesn't like, but he just can't leave. :)

    Are you guys really fighting about whether a k-pop song is about the devil or not? It's about love. Not about the Illuminati and it isn't trying to drag us teens into a cult. Seriously? That's ridiculous. It's about someone who is trying to tie down someone who isn't ready to be tied down into a relationship. "If you tie me down and trap me. Then love is also tied down. The future is also tied down. It can't grow anymore"
    Meaning I can't love you just yet. Stop being stupid.

    I'm so sick of ignorant people saying "lol it's not about the debul rofl".
    Yeah it's the illuminati. It's real. It's about satan. Satan is not a metaphor, satan is satan, ie the christian devil. The serpent. The leviathan. The beast of revelation. Tell me, why do people have to go around doing that "666 a-ok" hand gesture to get anywhere in the music industry? Why not something else? Why specifically 666, the number associated with the exclusively christian devil, satan? Why are these people showing themselves not to be unbelievers or followers of a different religion, but worshipers of the beast? Why are they showing themselves to be the integral enemy of christianity? And why do they go out of their way to diss jesus? Why do they want you to be spiritual, but not christian? To practice magic, reiki, meditation, tarot card reading, and psychic projection, but not prayer? Why do they diss jesus christ, but not buddha, or mohammed, or any other religion? Have you figured it out yet? If you don't know that, you're still blinded. If you view a mindset that you don't understand as insanity you're likely not an intelligent person and you'll likely never come to realize the truth at all.

    I'm a proud christian. And to me this song has a demonic meaning. Don't go telling me that there isn't any. Oh shocks you people read the lyrics and understand it. Open your eyes then you will see what I meant that it has a demonic meaning. So you people out there for goodness sakes. Stop this nonsense about the devil and all. Why not make a song that doesn't involve this kind of matters. Geez. Anyways you guys who don't believe and detest christians I have one thing to say to you. God bless you!

    (saranghae shinee!) what I think is that this guy is in love with this girl, eventually becoming his girlfriend, but he struggles because all his friends and family are turning on him (no idea why), and he starts to go crazy and this girl is like "whoa!" and he just wants to be left alone so he can truly love her like a normal person. But right now, he is just a little confused what happened in their relationship. I know, not the meaning you were kinda expecting!

    I think it's more personal in a kind of I love you but I can't love you now, like in real life these guys can't have relationships with anyone because of the fans and she's jealous and demanding of them and they say "when i'm free i'll love you" or something like that, maybe when they're not in the public eye? Maybe lucifer because they can hardly resist her but being with her could ruin them.

    I strongly suggest not to use words that have something to do with demonic things. Why would you make someone (the girl) to be alike with the demon? Does it make any sense? Why not use wonderful words that are excellent and praiseworthy? In that way, you will uplift your value for the girl you like!?

    Guys it's a song. It's only a song, the meaning by saying Her whisper is that Lucifer they're just comparing the girl's action that's makes them do impulsive things same as Lucifer, she's beautiful they're trying to resist her beauty but they can't they fell in love with her and can't escape and that's all, by the way Shinee are Christians not all of them but most of them are this song about love only.

I like shinee, I very love their. This isn't a prolem. This just a song. And I don't like person say "this song is bad" etc. They say shinee is a yahudi and bla.

    This song has mainly 2 meanings the 1st one is that ghe is madly in love and don't want to leave the girl but the girl is trying very hard to push away him for other the 2nd one is that he is not willing to live anymore as the girl is not loving him and she has become like lucifer or has become lucifer herself the boy is not happy with it and wants to die as fast as possible.

    Ok well its confusing me. But its about a girl who is trapping them and controlling them, bu they love her anyway. But that she is losing control of them and that now they are in control and that she doesn't have control over them and they are over her. Oh and lucifer means devil. So don't like the song just because of that! Its really good with a good meaning! :)

    To me your song means true love! All the feelings in your song describe everything I've felt in my quest for it. I am and asian/american. So it's hard to find a nice man from my culture cause my father never taught me the language as my mother brought me up in america. Your music helps me believe that one day I will speak the language fluently and be able to return home and find the right man. Thank you for such wonderful song!
