Lyrics & Translation

[Chinese]

[English]

就這樣講 沒當初的感覺

Let's just say, I don't have the same feeling as before

其實我一早不愛你 仍同行下去 已出錯

Actually, I stopped loving you long ago, continuing on is a mistake

就這樣講 用最極端的冷漠

Let's just say it, with the most extreme coldness

無能力用七天陪你 似一種束縛

Incapable of spending seven days with you, like a kind of burden

其實誰最清楚 謊言說了幾多

Actually, who knows best how many lies have been told?

手也在震 願你沒識破我

My hands are also trembling, I hope you didn't see through me

若能明白我 或能原諒我 極傻

If you can understand me, maybe you can forgive my foolishness

為何我要說謊 實行極狠心方案

Why do I have to lie, implementing such a cruel plan?

你看著我驚慌徬徨 淚盈滿眶

You look at me, panicked and hesitant, eyes full of tears

但真話我未講

But I haven't told you the truth

離去之後 未來荊棘讓我孤身對抗

After leaving, let me face the future thorns alone

請刪掉我 不要回望

Please delete me, don't look back

其實我轉身一剎 情緒先敢釋放

Actually, the moment I turned around, I dared to release my emotions

若這樣拖 大家都不好過

If we drag this on, it won't be good for anyone

連累你驚險走鋼索 如何能預你 我反駁

Putting you at risk, walking a tightrope, how can I plan with you? I object

若這樣拖 亦算是一種怯懦

If we drag this on, it's also a kind of cowardice

仍期望幸福的是你 騙子早想過

Still hoping you'll be happy, the liar thought about it long ago

其實誰最清楚 謊言說了幾多

Actually, who knows best how many lies have been told?

手也在震 願你沒識破我

My hands are also trembling, I hope you didn't see through me

若能瞞著你 願能承受這 後果

If I can hide it from you, I'm willing to bear this consequence

為何我要說謊 實行極狠心方案

Why do I have to lie, implementing such a cruel plan?

你看著我驚慌徬徨 淚盈滿眶

You look at me, panicked and hesitant, eyes full of tears

但真話我未講

But I haven't told you the truth

離去之後 未來荊棘讓我孤身對抗

After leaving, let me face the future thorns alone

請刪掉我 不要回望

Please delete me, don't look back

其實我轉身一剎 情緒先開始釋放

Actually, the moment I turned around, my emotions began to release

明日你仍是你 尋下個 跟他遠飛

Tomorrow you'll still be you, find someone else and fly away with them

我即使愛你 亦懂放棄

Even if I love you, I know how to let go

求別要攔住我

Please don't stop me

停吧 趁我還有演技

Stop now, while I still have acting skills

任你闖 別停下 好好奔往

Let you go, don't stop, run towards a better future

我對著那星空說句二人晚安

I say good night to the two of us to the starry sky

或稱得上悲壯

Maybe it can be called tragic

劇痛之後 面前漆黑讓我孤身對抗

After the great pain, let me face the darkness alone

請刪掉我 不要回望

Please delete me, don't look back

原諒我逼不得已 才要這麼假裝

Forgive me for being forced to pretend like this
