Lyrics & Translation

[Chinese]

[English]

寂寞攀附在等過的門

Loneliness clings to the door we've been waiting for

地板裂縫在時間的河

Cracks on the floor in the river of time

愛與恨總是一線之隔

Love and hate are always just a thin line apart

這樣下去也不是不可

If it continues like this, it's not impossible

我們 一路停停走走

We keep stopping and going all the way

越來越不知道自己要的是什麼

More and more, I don’t know what I really want

我們我們 誰也不肯承認 喔

Us, neither of us wants to admit it, oh

摀住了耳朵 聽見的笑聲 是假的

Cover my ears, but the laughter I hear is fake

真的可以了 我可以了 放棄相愛資格

It's really okay now, I can do this, I give up on loving

耽誤的青春 是美好的 天真

The youth I wasted was beautiful, innocent

你的痕跡還在我這 像塵埃沒有分寸

Your traces still linger here, like dust without measure

如影隨形著 狂妄刺痛著 我

Following me like a shadow, tormenting me with arrogance

真的可以了 我可以了 或許不置可否

It's really okay now, I can do this, maybe I won't say yes or no

讓我當那個 提分手的 罪人

Let me be the one who takes the blame for ending it

走不到的路就算了 我們永遠停在這了

The road we can't walk, forget it, we'll always stay here

不在乎的 沒有捨不得

Not caring, no regrets

...

...

我們我們 誰也不肯承認 喔

Us, neither of us wants to admit it, oh

飄忽的眼神 絕緣的體溫 是真的

Flitting eyes, disconnected body temperature, it's real

真的可以了 我可以了 放棄相愛資格

It's really okay now, I can do this, I give up on loving

耽誤的青春 是美好的 天真

The youth I wasted was beautiful, innocent

你的痕跡還在我這 像塵埃沒有分寸

Your traces still linger here, like dust without measure

如影隨形著 狂妄刺痛著 我

Following me like a shadow, tormenting me with arrogance

真的可以了 我可以了 或許不置可否

It's really okay now, I can do this, maybe I won't say yes or no

讓我當那個 提分手的 罪人

Let me be the one who takes the blame for ending it

走不到的路就算了 我們永遠停在這了

The road we can't walk, forget it, we'll always stay here

愛不愛了 成為過去了 喔

Whether we love or not, it's become the past, oh

...

...

走不到的路就算了 我們永遠停在這了

The road we can't walk, forget it, we'll always stay here

愛不愛了 成為過去了

Whether we love or not, it's become the past

只是朋友 我們 可以了

Just friends now, we can do this

...
