Lyrics & Translation

[Chinese]

[English]

曾經倔強是對的

Once stubbornness was right

偶爾脆弱也練習

Occasionally being fragile is practice

直到眼看遭遇捉弄

Until you see encounters playing tricks

很莫名 對自己懷疑

It's so perplexing, doubting yourself

心底安靜地可以

Quietly in my heart

緊跟呼吸的不息

Keeping up with the breath's endless flow

掙紮了 選擇了 然後歸零

Struggling, choosing, then resetting to zero

期待幸福回音

Expecting the echoes of happiness

可不可以 交出自己全放棄

Can I give myself fully, give up completely?

可不可以 別再要多清醒

Can I stop trying to be so clear?

腦中的空白空洞了空心

The emptiness in my mind, the hollow inside

再填空 還比較容易

Filling in the blank is easier

我可以了 關於沒過去

I'm okay now, about not having past

也可以了 生命再 變成 填空題

I'm also okay, life becoming a fill-in-the-blank question again

再填空 我會填上自己

Filling in the blank again, I will fill in myself
