[English]

Crying myself to sleep, accepting the way things are

Unable to reach you, feeling sorry for myself

Dark circles under my eyes, worried my friends and family will see

My tears even seem to influence others

They care for me but fear I might hate them

Do I have to keep fighting for you?

Just happy staying home alone

Stop caring about you anymore

Youth’s changing, I have to say goodbye

Busy recording every moment of you

Can't tell how distant we’ve become

Who cares that I’m still heartbroken?

Still gotta live, no more sleepless nights

Feeling bad for my good friends, staying up all night on the phone

You can leave, but I’ll still survive happily

Mend my broken heart, find a new start to live

Gained experience, kept my dignity intact

Work passionately as usual, celebrate with a heartfelt wish

Too young to avoid getting hurt, everyone’s been through it

Tomorrow I’ll pick myself up, a bit more grown-up

Winter without you doesn’t feel so bad

I keep warm with a matchstick

Boil a cup of hot fresh milk for me—warm my world

Make that gone Valentine’s Day bigger than life

Every day feels just as dull

Actually, I hold myself, I can find comfort

Still gotta live, no more sleepless nights

Work passionately as usual, celebrate with a heartfelt wish

Too young to avoid the pain, everyone suffers

Tomorrow I’ll be stronger, a little more mature

Still gotta live, no more sleepless nights

Feeling bad for good friends, staying up all night calling

You can leave, but I’ll still survive happily

Mend my broken heart, find a new start to live

Gained experience, kept my dignity intact

Work passionately as usual, celebrate with a heartfelt wish

Escape the dilemma, restart my life with new hope

Tomorrow I might meet someone who loves me, and see where it goes

[Chinese]

睡覺都哭泣委曲求全

博不到你可憐

令眼圈黑黑被擔心我的親友看見

還受到我眼淚感染

關心我又驚我討厭

難道我要再為你而苦戰

獨處於家中一般快樂

再不與你關連

善變的青春避不開要講一句再見

忙著記錄你那片段

看不出關係很遠

誰又要我記著我還失戀

還要生活　別再三失眠

難為善良好友憂心每天通宵的致電

隨便你走　仍能愉快的生存

修補我裂痕給我活過找個起點

贏了經驗　沒有輸尊嚴

如常熱情工作應該慶祝衷心許個願

年紀太小 人人受過傷無可避免

明日我便能振作　成熟半點

沒你的冬天都不算壞

我取暖有火柴

為我煲一杯熱的鮮奶都溫暖世界

拿逝去情人節放大

每一天一樣不快

其實我去抱著我能開解

還要生活　別再三失眠

如常熱情工作應該慶祝衷心許個願

年紀太小　人人受過傷無可避免

明日我便能振作 成熟半點

還要生活　別再三失眠

難為善良好友憂心每天通宵的致電

隨便你走　仍能愉快的生存

修補我裂痕給我活過找個起點

贏了經驗　沒有輸尊嚴

如常熱情工作應該慶祝衷心許個願

逃出困境　重頭為我的人生自勉

明日偶遇誰愛我 然後發展
