Lyrics & Translation

[Chinese]

[English]

零比零 午夜場空景

Zero to zero, the midnight scene is empty.

全劇終 默劇蒙太奇

The whole story ends in a silent film montage.

心碎的3D眼鏡 變黑白電影

Heartbroken 3D glasses turn into black-and-white movies.

黑白鋼琴變奏主題曲

Black and white piano variations, the theme song.

失去你 失去超能力

Losing you, losing superpowers.

失去你 不可能續集

Losing you makes a sequel impossible.

複製一百個分身 一百個替身

Clone a hundred copies, a hundred stand-ins.

複製不了一公克靈魂

Can't clone even a single ounce of soul.

好的情人 對不起好的情人

Good lover, sorry, good lover.

飛奔的倒帶人生 留給我一張票根

Speeding back through life, leaving me with a ticket stub.

當自己最後栽在 自己手裡

Falling at the end into my own hands.

比起心痛 沒有心還更痛

Compared to heartache, not having a heart hurts even more.

好的情人 錯過了好的劇本

Good lover missed the perfect script.

變身不銹鋼鐵人 也不能反敗為勝

Transforming into a stainless steel Iron Man, yet still can't turn things around.

是誰讓我們 動也不能動

Who’s stopping us from moving?

誰遙控我 每次怦然心動 每個夢

Who’s remote controlling me? Every fluttering heartbeat, every dream.

把披風 丟給電話亭

Throw the cape into the phone booth.

把鋼琴 留給我自己

Leave the piano for myself.

卸下了鋼盔鐵甲 像個冷笑話

Taking off the helmet and armor, like a cold joke.

我們不如想像中偉大

We’re not as great as we imagine.

好的情人 對不起好的情人

Good lover, sorry, good lover.

飛奔的倒帶人生 留給我一張票根

Speeding back through life, leaving me with a ticket stub.

當自己最後栽在 自己手裡

Falling at the end into my own hands.

沒有體溫 沒有心才叫作 痛

No temperature, no heartbeat—that’s what pain is.

好的情人 錯過了好的劇本

Good lover missed the perfect script.

變身不銹鋼鐵人 也不能反敗為勝

Transforming into a stainless steel Iron Man, yet can't turn the tide.

是誰讓我們 一動也不能動

Who’s stopping us from moving at all?

誰把我 心臟挖一個洞 無底洞

Who’s digging a hole in my heart? An endless hole.

好的情人 錯過了好的劇本

Good lover, missed the perfect script.

變身不銹鋼鐵人 也不能反敗為勝

Transforming into a stainless steel Iron Man, yet can't turn the tide.

是誰讓我們 一動也不能動

Who’s stopping us from even moving?

誰把我的 心挖一個洞 再掏空

Who’s hollowed out my heart, digging a hole again.
