[English]

Who cares how much pain a breakup brings

Who’s used to the suffering or torment of parting

Who insists on analyzing these results

Who’s to blame for mistakes

Who turn a new chapter to get through it

Hurried to meet someone new, replacing the old

But deep in my heart, I can't understand why

Why even sadness feels like it’s my fault

Sadness from the early mornings and late nights with you, years have passed

Why in the end, the conclusion is just exhaustion

The ups and downs we've been through, the rough roads we've endured

Tonight, we each replay it backwards

Sad about the first time we met, when the night still left its mark

This story begins here

But how could we have guessed we’d drift apart later

Who turn a new chapter to get through it

Even if I meet someone new, pretending everything’s fine

Even if I understand why

Even if I let go, it still hurts

Sad that all your memories along with me now feel like a dream

Why in the end, it’s so ironic that we couldn’t sleep

Heavy bodies, conflicting thoughts

Tonight, we’re each afraid

Sad as these walls fade in color, leaving behind proof

This story ends here

Let's send our blessings afar

Hoping in the future, who will we hold, who do we think of

Don’t let regret become a burden

Who cares how much pain a breakup brings

Who’s used to the suffering or torment of parting

Who insists on sharing this result, you and I

[Chinese]

誰在意分手的傷痛有幾多

誰習慣分開的苦惱或折磨

誰定要分析這種結果

是怪誰出錯

誰換上新一篇章節來渡過

急於找新相識 接替舊事

然而在我心內 想不通為何

為何難過也都是錯

難過於跟你的早晚作息 經已年月相隨

為何最後 那總結是 極疲累

行過的興衰 捱過的崎嶇

這夜各自也 倒敘

難過於初結識 當晚景色經已留下證據

這故事開始於這裡

但我們怎想到後來會別去

誰換上新一篇 章節來渡過

就算找新相識 一心假裝無不妥

就算知為何

就算放得低也難過

難過於跟你的所有記憶 經已如夢相隨

為何最後那諷刺是未能睡

沉重的身軀 矛盾的思緒

這夜各自也恐懼

難過於這四壁都已褪色 經已遺下證據

這故事終結於這裡

讓我們來遙遠祝福

盼未來擁抱著誰 想誰

遺憾別作負累

誰在意分手的傷痛有幾多

誰習慣分開的苦惱或折磨

誰定要分擔這種結果 你跟我
