  1. 爱上一个天使缺点 一种魔鬼语言

    Fell in love with an angel's flaws, speaking in the tongue of a devil,

  2. 上帝 一眨眼

    God up in the clouds just blinked once.

  3. 最后 一点

    In the end, a furrowed brow, a nod of the head.

  4. 爱上一个认真消遣 一朵花时间

    Fell in love with a serious pastime, in the blooming time of a flower,

  5. 你在旁边 只打照面

    You were beside me, just a fleeting glance.

  6. 五月晴天闪了

    May's sunny day flashed with lightning.

  7. 有生之年 狭路相逢 不能幸免

    In this lifetime, our paths cross in a narrow way, no escaping fate.

  8. 手心忽然长出纠缠曲线

    Suddenly, curves of entanglement grow in my palm,

  9. 懂事之前 以后 不过一天

    Before understanding, after feelings rise, it never lasts longer than a day.

  10. 留不住 不出

    Can't hold on, can't calculate the passage of years.

  11. 遇见烟火表演 轮回时间

    Caught in a firework display, using the time of reincarnation,

  12. 来不及再见

    The purple star flows by, too late to say goodbye,

  13. 已经远离一光

    Already a light-year away from me,

  14. 有生之年 狭路相逢 不能幸免

    In this lifetime, our paths cross on a narrow road, destined to be helpless,

  15. 手心忽然长出纠缠曲线

    Suddenly, curves of entanglement emerge in my palm,

  16. 懂事之前 以后 不过一天

    Before understanding, after emotions stir, lasting no longer than a day,

  17. 留不住 不出

    Unable to hold onto, can't measure the passage of years,

  18. 有生之年 狭路相逢 不能幸免

    In this lifetime, our paths cross on a narrow road, destined to be helpless,

  19. 手心忽然长出纠缠曲线

    Suddenly, curves of entanglement emerge in my palm,

  20. 懂事之前 以后 不过一天

    Before understanding, after emotions stir, lasting no longer than a day

  21. 那一一生改变

    That year changed a lifetime
