  1. 你 的 爱 像 把 锁 锁 住 我 的 自 我

    Your love locks away my very self,

  2. 找 不 到 一 片 能 让 我 自 由 呼 吸 的 天 空

    I can't find a piece of sky where I can breathe free,

  3. 对 你 太 放 纵 却 让 自 己 陷 入 牢 笼

    Being so indulgent to you traps me in a cage,

  4. 我 不 要 这 样 自 怨 自 恋 为 爱 消 磨

    I won't lament like this, losing myself to love's decay,

  5. 我 不 想 要 再 听 你 说 得 太 多

    I don’t want to hear you say so much anymore,

  6. 那 一 套 天 长 地 久 都 只 是 无 聊 的 承 诺

    That eternal promise is just a boring chore,

  7. 也 许 爱 得 浓 恨 也 就 越 来 越 沉 重

    Perhaps love that's deep only grows heavier still,

  8. 不 如 让 彼 此 放 下 包 袱 各 自 追 求

    Let us drop our burdens and chase our own thrill,

  9. 放 开 我 放 开 你 的 手 让 我 从 迷 惘 中 逃 脱

    Let go of me, let go of your hand, help me escape this haze,

  10. 你 不 要 以 为 女 人 都 情 愿 做 等 待 的 梦

    Don't think all women wish to be dreams that wait in a daze.

  11. 放 开 你 放 开 我 的 手 一 切 我 已 经 看 透

    Let go of you, let go of me, all is seen through.

  12. 一 但 心 冷 却 就 不 再 回 头

    But when the heart grows cold, it won't turn back.

  14. 你 的 爱 像 把 锁 锁 住 我 的 自 我

    Your love feels like a lock, trapping my true self.

  15. 找 不 到 一 片 能 让 我 自 由 呼 吸 的 天 空

    I can't find a space where I can breathe free air.

  16. 对 你 太 放 纵 却 让 自 己 陷 入 牢 笼

    Being too indulgent with you has put me in a cage.

  17. 我 不 要 这 样 自 怨 自 恋 为 爱 消 磨

    I refuse to wallow in self-pity, wasting away for love.

  18. 我 不 想 要 再 听 你 说 得 太 多

    I don't want to hear you say too much anymore.

  19. 那 一 套 天 长 地 久 都 只 是 无 聊 的 承 诺

    That endless promise is just a dull echo of boredom.

  20. 也 许 爱 得 浓 恨 也 就 越 来 越 沉 重

    Perhaps the deeper the love, the heavier the burden.

  21. 不 如 让 彼 此 放 下 包 袱 各 自 追 求

    Why not let go of our burdens and each pursue our own dreams?

  22. 放 开 我 放 开 你 的 手 让 我 从 迷 惘 中 逃 脱

    Let go of my hand, let go of yours, so I can escape from this confusion.

  23. 你 不 要 以 为 女 人 都 情 愿 做 等 待 的 梦

    Don't think that all women are willing to wait in a dream.

  24. 放 开 你 放 开 我 的 手 一 切 我 已 经 看 透

    Let go of you, let go of me, everything I have already seen through.

  25. 一 但 心 冷 却 就 不 再 回 头

    Once the heart grows cold, there's no turning back.

    Don't think that all women are willing to wait in a dream.

  29. 放 开 你 放 开 我 的 手 一 切 我 已 经 看 透

    Let go of you, let go of me, everything I have already seen through.

  30. 一 但 心 冷 却 就 不 再 回 头

    Once the heart grows cold, there's no turning back.
