希望被疼惜 又不屑被放口袋里
Hoping to be cherished, yet despising being tucked away
愿意去相信 又将真心关得好紧
Willing to believe, yet locking my heart up tight
想改造自己想粉碎孤寂
Wanting to reshape myself, craving to shatter solitude
却搞乱自己却打破爱情
But I end up confusing myself, breaking love apart
太多的反省 压力像鬼如影随形
So much reflection, pressure like a ghost, ever lurking
最初的幸运 最终会不会是囚禁
The initial fortune, will it ultimately be a confinement?
想膜拜心灵想特立独行
Wanting to worship my soul, yearning to stand apart
却服从规矩却沉没人群
Yet I bow to the rules, sinking into the crowd
多矛盾
How so contradictory
同样一个怀抱水火都沸腾
In the same embrace, both water and fire boil
快乐凝望不快乐 妥协共生
Happiness gazes uncheerfully, compromising coexistence.
同样一个脑袋对立的灵魂
A soul with a mind in conflict, just the same.
勇敢挑衅不勇敢 激烈辩论
Bravely provoke but not so bold, intense discussions unfold.
但愿够默契 就能抵挡耳语来袭
If only we’re in sync, we can withstand the whispers that come our way.
但是再亲密 人隔著心就有距离
But even in closeness, a heart can create distance.
想两全其美就不得安宁
To seek the best of both worlds brings no peace.
习惯不强求又挑战宿命
Getting used to it, neither forcing nor challenging fate.
多矛盾
So full of contradictions
同样一个怀抱水火都沸腾
In the same embrace, both water and fire boil over.
快乐凝望不快乐 妥协共生
Happiness gazes at sadness, compromise coexists.
同样一个脑袋对立的灵魂
A single head, with a soul in conflict,
勇敢挑衅不勇敢 激烈辩论
Boldly provoking yet timid, heated debates,
同样一个怀抱水火都沸腾
A single heart, where fire and water both boil,
快乐凝望不快乐 妥协共生
Joyful gazes yet unhappy, compromise and coexist,
同样一个脑袋对立的灵魂
A single head, with a soul in conflict,
勇敢挑衅不勇敢 激烈辩论
Boldly provoking yet timid, heated debates,
反抗矛盾 反而矛盾
Resisting contradictions only to create more.
