10th track from their 2nd (2008) album ‘越长大越孤单 It gets lonelier as you grow up'
嘴唇颤抖是种隐僻
zuǐ chún chàn dǒu shì zhǒng yǐn pì
The quivering of lips is a form of hidden eccentric-ness
你的眼睛暗示秘密
nǐ de yǎn jīng àn shì mì mì
Your eyes hint a secret
我躲在黑暗里面谈心
wǒ duǒ zài hēi àn lǐ miàn tán xīn
I hide in the darkness, thinking
为何深深陷入僵局
wéi hé shēn shēn xiàn rù jiāng jú
Why have we entered this deadlock?
# 知道你并不是故意
# zhī dào nǐ bìng bú shì gù yì
# I know you are not doing this intentionally
用冷落隔离了你自己
yòng lěng luò gé lí le nǐ zì jǐ
Using coldness to isolate yourself
爱的温暖令你恐惧
ài de wēn nuǎn lìng nǐ kǒng jù
The warmth of love scares you
啊 所以不肯让我接近
ā suǒ yǐ bú kěn ràng wǒ jiē jìn
Ah… Hence you won’t allow me to go closer
陌生的旋律
mò shēng de xuán lǜ
An unfamiliar melody
完美而具体
wán měi ér jù tǐ
Is perfect and concrete
所有的话语都失去了意义
suǒ yǒu de huà yǔ dōu shī qù le yì yì
All speech has lost its meaning
荒唐的分析
huāng táng de fèn xī
A ridiculous analysis
得不到回应
dé bú dào huí yīng
Receives no response
就去静静聆听
jiù qù jìng jìng líng tīng
Just listen quietly
原谅自己
yuán liàng zì jǐ
And forgive yourself
啊
ā
Ah…
午夜时冰冷的雾气
wǔ yè shí bīng lěng de wù qì
The freezing cold fog in the middle of the night
每一字一句无法回避
měi yī zì yī jù wú fǎ huí bì
Each word, each sentence cannot be avoided
像迷路孩子一样喘息
xiàng mí lù hái zǐ yī yàng chuǎn xī
Gasping for breath just like a child who has lost his way
呼吸是否继续下去
hū xī shì fǒu jì xù xià qù
Should the breathing continue on?
Repeat #
原谅自己
yuán liàng zì jǐ
Forgive yourself
