[English]

I'm still the same me

Just shed a few liters of tears and lost some weight

I promise myself in the mirror

Sooner or later, I'll return this face with a bunch of smiles

It's nothing, love is just love

Admitting my mistakes early brings relief

I'm lonely, lonely, and that's fine

At this moment, no one should come to comfort or hug me

Just let me suffer alone until I can't take it anymore

Thinking about it drives me crazy

As long as I'm not dead, that's good enough

I'm lonely, lonely, and that's fine

You really don't need to smile in my memories

I just don't believe I'll be foolish enough to forget

Clinging on, not letting go

People are inherently lonely

What is borrowed should be returned

I will eventually get over you

Still, the same you

It's just me dreaming, you haven't changed anything

No matter how much love, it's useless

Everyone has their own karma and consequences

There will be nothing, nothing at all

Seeing through it early allows me to see the future

I'm lonely, lonely, and that's fine

At this moment, no one should come to comfort or hug me

Just let me suffer alone until I can't take it anymore

Thinking about it drives me crazy

As long as I'm not dead, that's good enough

I'm lonely, lonely, and that's fine

You really don't need to smile in my memories

I just don't believe I'll be foolish enough to forget

Clinging on, not letting go

People are inherently lonely

I will eventually get over you

[Chinese]

还是原来那个我

不过流掉几公升泪所以变瘦

对著镜子我承诺

迟早我会还这张脸一堆笑容

不算什么爱错就爱错

早点认错早一点解脱

我寂寞寂寞就好

这时候谁都别来安慰拥抱

就让我一个人去痛到受不了

想到快疯掉

死不了就还好

我寂寞寂寞就好

你真的不用来我回忆里微笑

我就不相信我会笨到忘不了

赖着 不放掉

人 本来就 寂寞的

借来的 都该 还掉

我 总会把你戒掉

还是 原来那个 你

是我自己 做梦 你有改变什么

再多的爱也没用

每个人有每个人的业障因果

会有什么什么都没有

早点看破才看得见以后

我寂寞寂寞就好

这时候谁都别来安慰拥抱

就让我一个人去痛到受不了

想到快疯掉

死不了就还好

我寂寞寂寞就好

你真的不用来我回忆里微笑

我就不相信我会笨到忘不了

赖着不放掉

人本来就寂寞的

我总会把你戒掉
