一表人才

[English]

難道我 失戀一次 就去掘墳墓

Could it be that one heartbreak makes me dig my own grave

還是我 餘生給批過命

Or is it that I’ve given my life to a fate I've been cursed with

提早些 皈依更好

Better to repent early and find salvation

我心入面 沒有憤怒

There’s no anger in my heart

早知努力 前無去路

Had I known effort was useless, there’d be no way forward

何妨 自我嫌棄 變一堆泥濘 就好

Why not just reject myself, turn into a pile of mud—just fine

我過得並不好 但是我會活著

I’m not living very well, but I will keep on living

等找到新愛侶 會有治我的藥

Waiting to find a new lover—there will be a cure for me

此刻 努力扮作一表人才

Right now, I’m trying hard to look like someone talented

別在人前 隨便展覽虛弱

Don’t show weakness casually in front of others

要記得 還有做人合約

Remember there’s still a vow to be a decent person

...

...

無謂叫 親戚好友 伴我未痊癒

There’s no point calling on relatives and friends to help me heal

來為這 孩子的戀愛事

Come be a witness to this child’s love story

還擔心 足一輩子

Still worried about a lifetime of it

撐得極累 亦要撐住

Holding on so exhaustedly, but still persisting

一眶眼淚 仍然笑住

Tears welling up, yet I keep smiling

明年又變強壯 再捲土重來

Next year I’ll be stronger, ready to start again

才哭泣也未遲

It's never too late to cry

我過得並不好 但是我會活著

I’m not living very well, but I will keep on living

等找到新愛侶 會有治我的藥

Waiting to find a new lover—there will be a cure for me

此刻 努力扮作一表人才

Right now, I’m trying hard to look like someone talented

別在人前 隨便展覽虛弱

Don’t show weakness casually in front of others

要記得還有 做人合約

Remember there’s still a vow to be a decent person

Ho-oh, ho-oh-oh

Ho-oh, ho-oh-oh

...

...

不應叫 這心碎 早晚碎一碎

This heartbreak shouldn’t be called—sooner or later, it’ll break apart

時時 點算錯誤 給傷口再 重撃幾搥

From time to time, I count my mistakes, hitting my wounds again and again

過不去 想變 過得去

I can’t get past it, I want to change so I can move on

難過 也忍下去

Even if I’m down, I’ll endure

我過得並不好 但是我會活著

I’m not living very well, but I will keep on living

等找到新愛侶 會有治我的藥

Waiting to find a new lover—there will be a cure for me

此刻 努力扮作一表人才

Right now, I’m trying hard to look like someone talented

別在人前 隨便展覽虛弱

Don’t show weakness casually in front of others

最重傷時間 都不離場 才會最終笑著

Even the deepest wounds won’t leave the stage, only then can I finally smile

我最多受點苦 但是我要活著

I may take some pain, but I will keep living

必須好好愛我 當作自救的藥

I must love myself well, as a remedy for self-rescue

應該 信任像我一表人才

Trust that someone like me is worth believing in

上段情緣 棋差不過一著

The previous love is like a chess move—one wrong step

有信心迎接 未來的誓約

Have confidence in facing future vows

...

...
