如果我是半张废纸 让我 化蝶
If I were just a scrap of paper, let me turn into a butterfly.
如果我是个空罐子 为你 铁了心
If I were an empty can, I'd harden my heart for you.
被你遗弃 被你活埋
Abandoned by you, buried alive.
让我愉快 让我瓦解
Let me feel joy, let me fall apart.
让我盛放 颓废中 那媚态
Let me bloom in decay, with that alluring grace.
留我做个垃圾 长留恋于你家
Leave me as a piece of trash, lingering long at your door.
从沉溺中结疤 再发芽
From the depths of drowning, scars will form and sprout again.
情爱就似垃圾 残骸虽会腐化
Love is like garbage, though the wreckage may decay.
庭园中最后也 开满花
In the garden, flowers still bloom in the end.
被世界遗弃 不可怕
Being abandoned by the world is not so scary.
喜欢你 有时还可怕
Loving you can sometimes be frightening,
没法再做那些牵挂
No way to hold on to those worries anymore.
比不上 在你手中火化
Cannot compare to the flames you ignite,
不需要 完美得可怕
No need to be frighteningly perfect.
太快乐 如何招架 残忍不好吗
How to cope with such joy, isn't it cruel?
被世界遗弃 不可怕
Being abandoned by the world is not so scary.
喜欢你 有时还可怕
Loving you can sometimes be frightening,
没法再做那些牵挂
No way to hold on to those worries anymore.
比不上 在你手中火化
Cannot compare to the flames you ignite,
不需要 完美得可怕
No need to be frighteningly perfect.
太快乐 如何招架 残忍不好吗
How can one cope with such joy, isn't it cruel?
灰烬里 被彻底消化
Completely consumed by the ashes.
我以后 全无牵挂 什么都不怕
From now on, I have no more worries, I'm afraid of nothing.
