  1. 下班计程车

    A taxi rushing to finish its shift,

  2. 而过

    Whizzes past with a whistle.

  3. 下班不想回家

    Me, not wanting to go home after work,

  4. 要理?

    Who even cares about me?

  5. 很多之前

    Many years ago, I asked,

  6. 朋友 ?

    Who among my friends will come to keep me company, who will love me?

  7. 买醉时候 认识

    When I was lost in drink, you got to know me,

  8. 最后一起生活

    In the end, we lived together.

  9. 寂寞 我们做了很多

    To fear loneliness, we've done so much,

  10. 寂寞

    The least busy with loneliness.

  11. 偶遇之后

    After I met you, I said,

  12. 有人 就有

    I want someone to love me, and then someone loves me.

  13. 可是

    But I

  14. 不知道想要什么

    Don't know what I want.

  15. 不知道拥有什么

    Don't know what I have.

  16. 可能我们寂寞

    Perhaps we are both lonely.

  17. 迎面一个尼姑走过

    A nun walks by, right in front of me,

  18. 路灯看破

    Seeing through the streetlight.

  19. 你在家里

    Is it really better for me, waiting at home for you,

  20. 难道幸福?

    Than her happiness?

  21. 现在不想下班

    Right now, I don’t want to clock out

  22. 爱好难过 什么?

    Without love, there's sorrow; having love, what does it mean?

  23. I hate myself

  24. 不知道想要什么

    I don't know what I want

  25. 不知道拥有什么

    I don't know what I possess

  26. 可能我们寂寞

    Perhaps we're all lonely

  27. 走过马路

    As I cross the street, I say

  28. 一个寂寞 个人寂寞

    One person lonely, two people lonely

  29. 可能

    Maybe it's me

  30. 不知道拥有什么

    I don't know what I possess

  31. 我又缺少什么?

    But what am I still missing?

  32. 害怕什么?

    What am I afraid of?

  33. Ooh 什么?

    Ooh, afraid of what?

  34. 不知道什么 yeah

    I don't know what love really is, yeah

  35. 我又什么?

    And what do I count as?

  36. 我们寂寞

    We're all lonely
