About This Track

'Suffocate' by EXO is a K-Pop track from the album 'REVERXE - The 8th Album', released in 2026. The lyrics picture someone trapped in loneliness, calling out and waiting in a silent, empty room. Repeated lines of feeling unable to breathe without the other person give the song a helpless, claustrophobic emotional register, with the pleading refrain “Suffocate me till there's no” turning the heartbreak into a kind of enforced stillness.

"Suffocate" is a track by EXO, from the album REVERXE - The 8th Album, released 19th January 2026. The track is 2:58 long. It's filed under K-Pop. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 2 articles about EXO.

Lyrics

Suffocate

희미해져 가 hold me
곁에만 있어 don't leave
널 불러봐도 다시 broke me
돌아오는 건 적막
텅 빈 방 안엔 나만

하루 종일 난 feeling upside down
잊어달란 말 I can't forget it
후회만 짙게 남은 이곳에
나 혼자 wait wait hey

Suffocate me till there's no (air air)
깊은 침묵뿐인 너 (where where)
숨 쉴 수가 없지 너 없이 난 이미
Suffocate me slow (air air)

네가 나를 떠나버린 끔찍한
이 악몽에서 wake me up
Tease me bleed me
Suffocate me no air

버린 기억에 갇힌 채
단 한 걸음도 난 못 떼
All day all night 깊게 밴 듯해
내 안에 yeah 버릇이 된 기다림

하루 종일 난 feeling upside down
영원하잔 말 I won't forget it
실낱같은 chance 놓지 못한 채
아직 난 wait wait hey

Suffocate me till there's no (air air)
깊은 침묵뿐인 너 (where where)
숨 쉴 수가 없지 너 없이 난 이미
Suffocate me slow (air air)

네가 나를 떠나버린 끔찍한
이 악몽에서 wake me up
Tease me bleed me
Suffocate me no air

처음부터 아니었어 네겐
알면서도 붙잡았던 fake love
Yeah you a bad bad bad thing
네 눈빛도 속삭임도
전부 다 lie lie lie lie lie

숨 쉴 수가 없지 너 없이 난 이미
Suffocate me slow (air air)

네가 나를 떠나버린 끔찍한
이 악몽에서 wake me up
Tease me bleed me
Suffocate me no air
