“Tiki-taka only by mouth

Kill, pass, goal in do it fittingly right”

sO, I’m just going to put some definitions of these terms.

tiki taka - Tiki-taka is a style of play in football characterised by short passing and movement, working the ball through various channels

one touch kill - A one touch kill is a quick first-time pass that gets a team out of a pressured situation caused by the opposition.A one touch kill is a quick first-time pass that gets a team out of a pressured situation caused by the opposition.

pass - maneuvering it on the ground

goal - scoring

.

….If you have a vivid enough imagination you can see what this genius lyricist means by doing these things with your mouth.

“No half time, even if I run out of breath”

HONGJOONG, HOW LONG ARE YOU IN THE TRENCHES FOR-

“I have already lost hope in my pace

There is no tomorrow”

-ig that answers my previous question.

and back to

“Don’t stop

Please no mercy for me tonight”

I’m just gonna say it. It’s giving ‘I sAiD sIT oN It’.

“Yeah vo-volume up bo-booming more”

Now I interpreted this two different ways.

1. Turn up the volume of the music so they don’t hear us

2. Our volume going is up

Let’s dissect this one together, shall we?

Don't rush, having you isn't all I want

The outcome's decided, but I hope the process runs deeper

Aight so, what I interpret is that he highly values teasing and foreplay. Like he knows he and his partner are going to burn calories together, he wants there to be more mentally than a quickie (not necessarily talking about romantic feelings, but feelings that aren’t just about releasing an urge as quickly as possible).

Break until you're broken, finally worth watching

OKAY SO TEASE AND MINDBREAK (i’ll elaborate on that soon- dw) Like, he wants to slowly peel the metaphorical layers (and maybe physically lol) off his partner. It’s not immediate dominance and obedience in a scene. It’s breaking his partner’s walls down (CONSENSUALLY OFC-) until they are like putty in his hands.

I know you're afraid of it, but it's only a moment

Here is how I interpret this line: Yes, it’s terrifying knowing that even just some silly song lyrics have an effect on my brain the way it does. I can’t even imagine the way a partner of his would feel knowing that a few words and boom, you listening to him like a puppet on strings without even thinking. It can be scary to give someone that much trust over your mind and body but once you let go, it feels freeing knowing that you are safe and able to rely on someone to that degree.

I'm getting in your head

The way the line just cuts through in the song and it’s pretty much the only thing you can hear kinda sends chills. The way he portrays this line is really fucking smart. It gives you a tiny window into how he would want a partner to feel affected in a scene. Like his voice and commands is enough to be the only thing your mind can focus on.

All in all, I interpret that this verse is him expressing that what he wants from a scene isn’t just instinct driven or romantic love per say. He wants to hold the kind of dominance that isn’t gained through physical overpowering. He wants to earn the ability to hold control over someone. He wants to have the mind of his partner at his mercy, utterly broken, and put back together by him at the end of the night. There is more to say, I’m just bad with words lol. (i might edit this part of the post later to include additional thoughts when I find a way to write them down in an intelligible way)

This rant might be a little all over the place so apologies for that. It might be more comprehensible for those in the kink scene though, lol.

Many thanks to @lovetobemars for bestowing this information upon me.
