大白天睡不著 也不想起来
Wide awake in the daylight, yet I can't rise.
不想被人发现自己心跳得厉害
Don’t want anyone to catch my racing heart.
什么都没有兴趣 想一吐为快
Nothing sparks my interest, just want to vent.
一不小心婉转的事被我说成直白
Carelessly, my subtle thoughts spill out bluntly.
我不喜欢拉帮结派
I’m not a fan of forming cliques.
被排挤也没有什么好奇怪
Being excluded is nothing to be surprised about.
我很乐意心掏出来
I’m quite willing to lay my heart bare.
总有人认为我是应该
There are always those who think I ought to be.
像又犀牛被挡在门外
Like a rhino, stuck outside the door.
很热情 很真实 很小心 很无奈
So passionate, so real, so cautious, so helpless.
别人的圈子 我已不敢再期待
I no longer dare to hope for others' circles.
我的圈子不是谁想进来就可以进来
My circle isn’t open to anyone who wants to enter.
我的心理没有障碍
There are no barriers in my mind.
才会抱著一种玩一玩的心态
That's why I embrace a playful attitude.
独来独往什么感觉?
What's it like to walk alone?
说出来 你也不明白
If I say it, you wouldn’t understand.
还在等待 我还在等待
Still waiting, I'm still waiting.
我信仰 我崇拜
I believe, I adore.
好就好 坏就是坏
Good is good, bad is just bad.
自由自在
Free and unrestrained.
忽然明白 几乎是一夜之间
Suddenly I understand, it feels like overnight
我忽然明白这地方只有我在
I suddenly realize this place is only mine
我需要一个出口
I need an escape
需要都发泄出来
I need to let it all out
人越走越近 越不敢交往
The closer we get, the less we dare to connect
凭感觉 凭嗅觉 不敢凭印象
Relying on feelings, on scents, afraid to trust impressions
孤独感像安全带绑在我的身上
Loneliness straps around me like a safety belt
我还是最怀念我的那一张床
I still miss my old bed the most
不想出门 害怕出门
Don't want to go out, afraid to step outside
太多的人喜怒无常
Too many people are fickle in their moods
这一周七天 下周七天
This week of seven days, next week of seven days
我盼望天天都这样
I hope every day is like this
还在等待 我还在等待
Still waiting, I'm still waiting
我信仰 我崇拜
I believe, I worship
好就好 坏就是坏
Good is good, bad is just bad
自由自在
Free and easy
忽然明白 几乎是一夜之间
Suddenly understanding, it’s almost overnight
我忽然明白这地方只有我在
I suddenly realize this place is only mine
我需要一个出口
I need an escape
需要全部都发泄出来
I need to let it all out
短短的一夜之间
In just one short night
我忽然明白这地方只有我在
I suddenly realize I'm all alone in this place
我需要一个出口
I need an escape
需要全部都发泄出来
I need to let it all out
还在等待 我还在等待
Still waiting, I'm still waiting
我信仰 我崇拜
I believe, I worship
好就好 坏就是坏
Good is good, bad is bad
自由自在
Free and unrestrained
忽然明白 几乎是一夜之间
Suddenly understanding, almost overnight
我忽然明白这地方只有我在
I suddenly realize I'm all alone in this place
我需要一个出口
I need an escape
需要全部都发泄出来
Need to let it all out
短短的一夜之间
In a fleeting night
我忽然明白不可能只有我在
I suddenly realize I can't be the only one
一定有一个同类
There must be another like me
也在寂寞的过著礼拜
Also living through loneliness like a Sunday
