难言难问 你的秘密
Difficult to say, difficult to ask, your secret
难明难白 你的爱恨
Hard to understand, hard to clarify, your love and hate
投入你的一段迷局之内
Engulfed in your web of confusion
难让你一个徘徊闹市内
It's hard to leave you wandering the bustling streets
豺狼和月 趁黑出没
Wolves and the moon, lurking in the dark
难寻难觅 你怎过活
Difficult to find, hard to seek, how do you survive?
蒙着你的不愿流泪的脸
Veiled is your tearless, unwilling face
留下眼睛泄漏了破碎的心
Leaving behind eyes that reveal a shattered heart
其实是你吗
Is it really you?
黑暗内藏着诱惑
Darkness conceals temptation
明明夜更黑
The night is clearly darker still
请你别逃避我吧
Please don't run away from me
冥冥有路 阴沟倍满
In the darkness, a path appears, filled with shadows
越难明白 越要接近
The harder to grasp, the closer we must get
除下你的这样奇异装扮
Remove this oddly splendid disguise of yours
容或这真相 缺憾但灿烂
Perhaps this truth is flawed, yet it shines bright
蛇虫和梦 暗中出发
Serpents, insects, and dreams set off in secret
迷糊情欲 见光蒸发
Confused desire evaporates when faced with the light
蒙着你的不愿承认的脸
Veiling your unwilling face to confess
难道你可以自我软禁一生
Can you truly imprison yourself for a lifetime?
其实是你吗
Is it really you?
黑暗内藏着诱惑
The darkness hides temptation
明明夜更黑
The night is clearly darker
请你别逃避我吧
Please don’t run away from me
比夜更黑(电影黑侠主题曲)
Darker than the night (Theme of the movie 'Black Knight')
习惯黑夜
Accustomed to the night
遮去某些
Hiding certain things
但压不住
But can't suppress it
谁愿意凋谢
Who wishes to wither away?
其实是你吗
Is it really you?
黑暗内藏着诱惑
Darkness conceals temptation,
原来夜更黑
Turns out the night grows deeper,
一切越容易变坏
Everything seems to fall apart more easily.
其实是你吗
Is it really you?
请你别逃避我吧
Please don’t run away from me,
明明夜更黑
Clearly the night is darker,
请你别逃避你吧
Please don’t hide from yourself.
