I don't wanna share this space

I don't wanna force a smile

我不想强颜欢笑

This one girl taps my insecurities

那个女孩触碰了我的自卑

Don't know if it's real or if I'm spiraling

不知是真是假，还是我在越陷越深

One voice tells me that they laugh

有个声音告诉我，她们在嘲笑

George says I'm just paranoid

乔治说我只是多疑

Says he just don't see it, he's so naive

说他根本没看到，他太天真了

I'm embarrassed to have it, but need the sympathy

我很羞愧拥有它，但又需要同情

'Cause I couldn't even be her if I tried

因为就算我努力，也无法成为她

I'm opposite, I'm on the other side

我截然相反，我在另一边

I feel all these feelings I can't control

我感到无法控制的种种情绪

Oh no, don't know why

哦不，不知道为什么

All this sympathy is just a knife

所有的同情，只是一把刀

Why I can't even grit my teeth and lie?

为什么我连咬紧牙关说谎都做不到？

I feel all these feelings I can't control

Oh no, don't know

哦不，不知道

Why I wanna buy a gun?

为什么我想买把枪？

Why I wanna shoot myself?

为什么我想自我了断？

Volatile at war with my dialogue

情绪多变，与内心挣扎

I'd say that there was a God if they could stop this

如果他们能阻止这一切，我就会说有上帝

Wild voice tearing me apart

疯狂的声音撕裂着我

I'm so apprehensive now

我现在非常不安

Don't wanna see her backstage at my boyfriend's show

不想在男友的演出后台看到她

Fingers crossed behind my back, I hope they break up quick

在背后默默祈祷，希望他们快点分手

'Cause I couldn't even be her if I tried

All this sympathy is just a knife

All this sympathy is just a lie

所有的同情，都只是谎言

All this sympathy is just a knife

Yeah, all this sympathy is just a lie
