魔鬼娇妻 不可一世
Devilish beauty, unmatched in her reign,
尸妖 蝙蝠 乌鸦 冲出天际
Corpse demons, bats, and crows burst forth from the sky.
当葛咸城已处处破毁 漆黑暗暗已扑向四季
When Gotham is shattered and darkness invades the seasons,
谁能自卫 凭定力永永远远不会变鬼
Who can defend themselves, with steadfastness that will never turn to ghosts?
感官 要孤身赤体
Senses crave to be bare and alone,
莫再抚慰 绝望地沉迷
No more solace, lost in despair's embrace.
心肝 要剖开到底
Heart and soul, laid open to the core,
让你牵制 被尽力而为
Let you restrain me, giving it my all,
生要俾你毁 死要俾你睇
Living just to be destroyed by you, dying just for you to see.
走到天脚底 力也枉费 像活在浮泥
Underneath the sky’s edge, strength feels wasted, like living in quicksand.
躲进死角位 一切都放低
Hiding in a corner, letting everything go,
心脱不脱轨 没法估计
Is my heart on track or off? It's hard to tell.
只等一天 等到金色光线
Just waiting for a day, for the golden rays,
烧毁 魔鬼 妖精 统统收敛
Burning down devils and fairies, gathering them all.
当葛咸城碰上了这天 多么痛我也信会看见
When Gotham meets this day, how much pain, I know I'll see.
谁又预料 从现在到那里我早已发癫
Who could have predicted, from now until then, I've gone mad long ago.
思想 已仿佛破损
Thoughts seem to be shattered,
任意打转 又夜夜无眠
Spinning aimlessly, sleepless every night.
天空 却闪起雷电
But the sky flashes with thunder and lightning,
让我惊畏 在旧事重提
Making me tremble as the past is brought up again.
生要俾你毁 死要俾你睇
Life's meant to be shattered by you, death's meant to be witnessed by you.
走到天脚底 力也枉费 像活在浮泥
Walking to the ends of the earth, efforts turn to waste like living in quicksand.
躲进死角位 一切都放低
Hiding in a dead-end, letting everything go.
心脱不脱轨 没法估计
Is my heart on track or off? No way to predict.
感官 要孤身赤体
Senses craving to be alone, stripped bare.
莫再抚慰 绝望地沉迷
No more soothing, lost in despair.
心肝 要剖开到底
My heart must be opened, peeled to the core.
让你牵制 被尽力而为
Letting you hold me, giving all I’ve got.
生要俾你毁 死要俾你睇
Life's meant to be shattered by you, death's meant to be witnessed by you.
走到天脚底 力也枉费 像活在浮泥
Walking to the ends of the earth, efforts turn to waste like living in quicksand.
冲向吸血鬼 一切火里毁
Charging at the vampire, everything's consumed in fire
醒了于眼底 又见天际
Awakened in the depths of my eyes, I see the horizon once more
