[English]

The most frightening thing is when the air suddenly goes silent

The most frightening thing is when friends suddenly show concern

The most frightening thing is when memories suddenly roll in, twisting and hurting without calming down

The most frightening thing is suddenly hearing your news

Missing you, if it could have a sound

I don't want it to be the sad crying

At this point, I finally let myself belong to myself

Only tears remain, still can't deceive myself

Suddenly, I miss you so much, where could you be?

Living happily or feeling wronged

Suddenly, I miss you, suddenly sharp memories

Suddenly blurry eyes

We are like the most beautiful song

Turning into two sad movies

Why did you take me through the most unforgettable journey?

And then leave the most painful souvenir

...

We were so sweet, so beautiful, so trusting

So crazy, so passionately in the past

Why do we still have to rush towards

Our own happiness and grow old with regrets

Suddenly, I miss you so much, where could you be?

Living happily or feeling wronged

Suddenly, I miss you, suddenly sharp memories

Suddenly blurry eyes

The most frightening thing is when the air suddenly goes silent

The most frightening thing is when friends suddenly show concern

The most frightening thing is when memories suddenly roll in, twisting and hurting without calming down

The most frightening thing is suddenly hearing your news

The most frightening thing is having decided to live this life without you

Yet suddenly hearing your news again

...

[Chinese]

最怕空氣 突然安靜

最怕朋友 突然的 關心

最怕回憶 突然翻滾絞痛著 不平息

最怕突然 聽到你的 消息

想念 如果會有聲音

不願 那是悲傷的 哭泣

事到如今 終於讓自己屬於 我自己

只剩眼淚 還騙不過自己

突然 好想你 你會 在哪裡

過得 快樂 或委屈

突然 好想你 突然鋒利的 回憶

突然模糊的 眼睛

我們 像一首最美麗的 歌曲

變成兩部悲傷的 電影

為什麼你 帶我走過最難忘的 旅行

然後留下 最痛的 紀念品

我們 那麼甜 那麼美 那麼相信

那麼瘋 那麼熱烈 的曾經

為何我們 還是要奔向

各自的幸福 和遺憾中 老去

突然 好想你 你會 在哪裡

過得快樂 或委屈

突然 好想你 突然 鋒利的 回憶

突然 模糊的 眼睛

最怕空氣 突然安靜

最怕朋友 突然的 關心

最怕回憶 突然翻滾絞痛著 不平息

最怕突然 聽到你的 消息

最怕此生 已經決心自己過 沒有你

卻又突然 聽到你的 消息
