  1. 不想是完美 崇拜我表面

    Don't want to be perfect, just admire my surface,

  2. 不曾出恶言 受伤含冤也从不抱怨

    Never spoke ill, even when hurt, I never complain,

  3. 我曾以为 完美小姐 下个进阶

    I once thought, Miss Perfect, it's just another step,

  4. 只要咬著牙有一天也会

    As long as I grit my teeth, one day it'll come,

  5. 获得了爱并非只是绝对

    Gaining love isn't just about achieving absolute,

  6. 内在的房间 阴暗的空间

    Inside the room, in a darkened space,

  7. 偶尔产生的邪恶 也要握手或者和他亲吻

    Occasionally born evil, still shake hands or kiss it,

  8. 不需要责怪自己生了负面心竟生了暗念

    No need to blame myself for negative thoughts that arise,

  1. 渴爱激切低吟眼泪不分正负面善恶是非

    Thirsting for love, softly weeping, tears don't distinguish right from wrong,

  2. 我的恶 我的罪 受了伤也从不抱怨要准备训练自己

    My darkness, my sins, even when hurt, I never complain, gotta train myself.

  3. 社会流行口号正面力量根本脏话而已

    Society's popular slogans are just filthy words in disguise.

  4. 恶里 暗中 激情 忌妒拥抱自己内在不足

    In the darkness of evil, passion and jealousy embrace our inner flaws.

  5. 人们不让自己痛苦只想与正面思考相处

    People avoid their own pain, only wanting to dwell in positive thoughts.

  6. 我说我恶故我在

    I say I am evil, therefore I exist.

  7. 我想必要的使坏

    I believe sometimes it's necessary to be bad.

  8. 必要的臭脸 必要凶险 必要的崩坏

    Necessary grimaces, necessary dangers, necessary breakdowns.

  9. 恶是说谁 罪又是谁

    Who defines evil? And who is the sinner?

  10. 恶女是谁 我冷所以我美

    Who is the wicked woman? I am cold, therefore I am beautiful.

  11. 灵魂的形状只有自己看得清

    The shape of the soul is clear only to oneself.

  12. 拥抱那总是不够高分的自己

    Embrace that self who never quite scores high enough.

  13. 还不够 还不够 不够痛 心狠与转身就走

    Still not enough, still not enough, not enough pain, cold hearted and turning away.

  14. 一点点恶之必要 一些些坏之必要

    A little bit of necessary evil, a touch of necessary badness.

  15. 摔了摔 盘子喝了喝 全都断了断

    Fell and fell, smashed the plate and drank, everything broke and shattered.

  16. 说了说 天花乱坠 泪流满了满

    Said and said, spinning tales, tears flowing everywhere.

  17. 残忍的霸凌 蔓生的情绪 不看就不再

    Cruel bullying, rampant emotions, if you don't see, it won't be there anymore.

  18. 连痛苦都不给你缠绵的权力

    Even pain won't grant you the power to linger endlessly.

  19. 突发走音 先人自嘲 先人自嘲

    Sudden off-key notes, ancestors laughing at themselves, ancestors laughing at themselves.

  20. 只想听你 正面思考 正面思考

    Just want to hear you think positively, think positively.

  21. 我的好 我的坏 这些年我不知道 原来逞强不是坚强

    My good, my bad, these years I've realized, being strong isn't about pretending to be tough.

  22. 容许我自己喜欢自己不完美 带他走四方

    Allowing myself to love my imperfections, taking him across the four directions.

  23. 恶里 暗中 激情 忌妒拥抱自己内在不足

    In darkness, hiding, passion embraces the jealousy of my own flaws.

  24. 人们不让自己痛苦只想与正面思考相处

    People refuse to suffer, only wanting to dwell with positive thoughts.

  25. 我说我恶故我在

    I say I am wicked, thus I exist.

  26. 我想必要的使坏

    I must play the villain when it's necessary.

  27. 必要的臭 脸必要凶险 必要的崩坏

    The necessary stench, a dangerous face deemed essential, the necessary breakdown.

  28. 恶是说谁 罪又是谁

    Who defines evil, and who bears the sin?

  29. 恶女是谁 我冷所以我美

    Who is the wicked woman? I am cold, therefore I am beautiful.

  30. 灵魂的形状只有自己看得清

    The shape of the soul is only clear to oneself.

  31. 拥抱那总是不够高分的自己

    Embrace that self which never scores high enough.

  32. 还不够 还不够 不够痛 心狠与转身就走

    Not enough, still not enough, not enough pain; heartless, I turn and walk away.
