浪费 lyrics with English translation

闭上眼看 十六岁的夕阳

Close your eyes and watch the sunset at sixteen,

美得像我们一样

So beautiful, just like us.

边走边唱 天真浪漫勇敢

Walking and singing, innocent and bold,

以为能走到远方

Thinking we could reach far away,

走不完的长巷

An endless long alley,

原来也就那么长

Turns out it was just that long.

跑不完的操场

An endless playground,

原来小成这样

Turns out I'm just this way.

时间的手 翻云覆雨了什么

What has time's hand stirred and changed?

从我手中 夺走了什么

What has been taken from my hands?

闭上眼看 十六岁的夕阳

Close your eyes and see the sunset at sixteen

美得像我们一样

So beautiful, just like us

边走边唱 天真浪漫勇敢

Walking and singing, innocent, romantic, and brave

以为能走到远方

Thinking we could reach far away

我们曾相爱 想到就心酸

We once loved, thinking of it brings a pang to the heart

多久了 我都没变

How long has it been? I haven't changed at all

爱妳这回事 整整六年

Loving you has been a journey of six whole years

妳最好 做好准备

You better be ready

我没有打算 停止一切

I have no plans to stop everything

想说我没有志愿

Want to say I have no aspirations

也没有事情好消遣

There's nothing much to pass the time,

有一个人能去爱 多珍贵

Having someone who can love is so precious.

没关系妳也不用给我机会

It's okay, you don't have to give me a chance.

反正我还有一生可以浪费

After all, I've still got a lifetime to waste.

我就是剩这么一点点倔

I'm just a little stubborn,

称得上 我的优点

You could call it my strength.

没关系妳也不用对我惭愧

It's alright, you don't have to feel guilty towards me.

也许我根本喜欢被妳浪费

Maybe I actually enjoy being wasted by you.

随便妳今天拼命爱上谁

Whoever you fall for today is up to you,

我都会 坦然面对

I will face it all with calm.

即使要我跟妳再耗个十年 无所谓

Even if it means I spend another ten years with you, it's okay.

太亲密的关系像不像海底

Isn't an overly close relationship like the ocean floor?

看著温柔的草 美丽的鱼

Watching the gentle grass, the beautiful fish.

屏息太久一瞬间快不能呼吸

Holding my breath for too long, I almost can't breathe.

秘密会不会是某种氧气

Could a secret be some kind of oxygen?

有没有一种孤僻能被允许

Is there a kind of solitude that can be allowed?

当著最爱的人面无表情

In front of the one I love, I wear a blank expression.

躲在自己的世界混乱或整理

Hiding in my own world, messy or organized.

就是单纯地不想被干预

It's just a simple wish to not be interfered with.

翻完我的简讯我的信

After reading my messages and my letters.

能不能顺便翻翻我的心情

Can you perhaps take a look at my mood?

我们有隔间不同的心灵

We have separate compartments of different souls.

所以有动线不同的情绪

Thus, we carry different flows of emotions.

当爱情只剩嘴巴少了耳朵

When love is just words, with ears left out,

就变得妳只相信妳猜测的

It turns into you only believing your own guesses.

当感应在你我之间不再流动

When the connection between us no longer flows,

该怎么说 没死不代表活著

How should I say it? Not dead doesn't mean alive.

当爱情只剩眼睛 少了耳朵

When love is just eyes, with ears left behind,

就变得妳只看到妳怕看的

It turns into you only seeing what you're afraid to see.

我努力越解释妳越流泪激动

The more I try to explain, the more you tear up in excitement.

但有些事 不仔细听不会懂

But some things, if you don’t listen closely, won't be understood.

每个人都缺乏什么

Everyone is lacking something.

我们才会瞬间就不快乐

That's why we can suddenly feel unhappy.

单纯很难 包袱很多

Simplicity is hard; there are many burdens.

已经很勇敢 还是难过

I’ve been very brave, yet still feel sorrow.

许多事情都有选择

Many things come with choices.

只是往往事后我才懂得

But often it's only after that I truly understand.

情绪很烦 说话很冲

Emotions are bothersome; my words are sharp.

人和人的沟通 有时候没有用

Sometimes communication between people is in vain.

或许只有妳 懂得我 所以妳没逃脱

Perhaps only you understand me, so you didn’t escape.

一边在泪流 一边紧抱我

Tears flowing as you hold me tight,

小声地说 多么爱我

Whispering softly, how much you love me.

只有妳 懂得我 就像被困住的野兽

Only you understand me, like a beast trapped,

在摩天大楼 渴求 自由

In this skyscraper, craving for freedom.

或许只有妳 懂得我 所以妳没逃脱

Perhaps only you understand me, that's why you never escaped.

一边在泪流 一边紧抱我

Tears flowing as you hold me tight,

小声地说 多么爱我

Whispering softly, how much you love me.

只有妳 懂得我 就像被困住的野兽

Only you understand me, like a beast trapped,

在摩天大楼 渴求 自由

In this skyscraper, craving for freedom.
