  1. 对我好 对我好 好到无路可退

    Treat me well, treat me well, so good there's no way to retreat.

  2. 可是我也很想有个人陪

    But I really want someone to accompany me.

  3. 才不愿把你得罪 于是那么迂回

    I don't want to offend you, so I take the long, winding way.

  4. 一时进 一时退 保持安全范围

    Sometimes I move in, sometimes I pull back, keeping a safe distance.

  5. 这个阴谋让我好惭愧

    This conspiracy fills me with shame.

  6. 享受被爱滋味 却不让你想入非非

    Enjoying the taste of being loved, yet I won’t let you think of more.

  7. 就让我们虚伪 有感情 别浪费

    Let’s be hypocritical, we share feelings, don’t waste it.

  8. 不能相爱的一对 亲爱像两兄妹

    A pair that can’t fall in love, dear like two siblings.

  1. 爱让我们虚伪 我得到于事无补的安慰

    Love makes us hypocritical; I gain comfort that doesn't help.

  2. 你也得到模仿爱上一个人的机会

    You also get a chance to mimic the feeling of loving someone.

  3. 残忍也不失慈悲 这样的关系你说多完美

    Cruelty yet mercy intertwine, such a relationship, you say, is perfect.

  4. 眼看你看著我 看得那么暧昧

    I watch you watching me, in glances so ambiguous.

  5. 被爱爱人原来一样可悲

    To be loved and to love, turns out to be just as sad.

  6. 为甚么竟然防备? 别人给我献媚

    Why the need for defenses? While others shower me with flattery.

  7. 不能退 不能要 要了怕你误会

    No retreat, no gain; afraid you might misunderstand if I take.

  8. 让我想起曾经爱过谁 我所要的她不给

    Reminds me of those I once loved, but she won’t give me what I seek.

  9. 好像小偷一样卑微

    Humble like a thief, I linger in the shadows.

  10. 就让我们虚伪 有感情 别浪费

    Let us be hypocrites, with feelings that shouldn’t go to waste.

  11. 不能相爱的一对 亲爱像两兄妹

    A pair that cannot love, dear as if we were siblings.

  12. 爱让我们虚伪 我得到于事无补的安慰

    Love makes us insincere; what I gain is merely empty comfort.

  13. 你也得到模仿爱上一个人的机会

    You too have the chance to fall in love by imitation.

  14. 残忍也不失慈悲 这样的关系你说多完美

    Cruelty retains its mercy; how perfect this relationship, you say.
