[English]
You said we were parallel lines
Tell me why we even had a connection
Those years ago, there was so much sweetness
How could you just turn around
And leave in an instant?
My world suddenly turned dark
Once, I’d gladly have woven you into my life
But ended up with scars
Tears well up, a little bitter
Hoping one day they’ll just dry up
Your life continues, brightly shining
But you dragged me into the depths
Only in dreams is there a sweet illusion
Waking up, my face is stung by the rain
I fall into the abyss, unable to break free
Do you even hear me?
Searching for fragments of your past
If I can’t forget, I’ll just piece together a perfect fantasy
Repeatedly hurting myself, over and over
Falling into the mire of love
And leave in an instant?
My world suddenly turned dark
Once, I’d gladly have woven you into my life
But ended up with scars
Tears well up, a little bitter
Hoping one day they’ll just dry up
Your life continues, brightly shining
But you dragged me into the depths
Only in dreams is there a sweet illusion
Waking up, my face is stung by the rain
I fall into the abyss, unable to break free
Do you even hear me?
Searching for fragments of your past
If I can’t forget, I’ll just piece together a perfect fantasy
Repeatedly hurting myself, over and over
Falling into
Only in dreams is there a sweet illusion
Waking up, my face is stung by the rain
I fall into the abyss, unable to break free
Do you even hear me?
Searching for fragments of your past
If I can’t forget, I’ll just piece together a perfect fantasy
Repeatedly hurting myself, over and over
Falling into the mire of love

Key Grammar Structures

  • Nǐ shuō wǒmen shì píngxíngxiàn

    ➔ Use of 'shì' (to be) to indicate identity/classification.

    ➔ The sentence states 'You said we were parallels'. 'Shì' connects 'wǒmen' (we) to 'píngxíngxiàn' (parallels), defining what we *are*.

  • Zhǐyǒu mèng lǐ cái shì tiánmì de huàmiàn

    ➔ Use of 'zhǐyǒu...cái' structure for emphasis – 'only in dreams is it a sweet facade'.

    ➔ This line emphasizes that the sweetness ('tiánmì') is *only* found in dreams. The 'cái' particle highlights the exclusivity.

  • Jìrán wàng bùliǎo jiù pīncòu yuánmǎn

    ➔ Use of 'jìrán...jiù' structure – 'since you can't forget, then embrace perfection'. Conditional clause.

    ➔ This line presents a conditional statement. If forgetting is impossible ('wàng bùliǎo'), the logical consequence is to strive for perfection ('pīncòu yuánmǎn').

  • Wǒ diào jìn xuányá wúfǎ shēnghuán

    ➔ Use of 'wúfǎ' (unable to) to express inability. 'Xuányá' as a metaphorical abyss.

    ➔ This line describes falling into a 'whirlpool' ('xuányá') and being 'unable to revive' ('wúfǎ shēnghuán'). 'Xuányá' represents a state of despair.
