失恋并不失败
Heartbreak isn't failure
泪水 闪开
Tears, step aside
我不需要 谁的怜爱
I don't need anyone's pity
爱情总会再来
Love will come again
别再 别再
Don't, don't
哭哭啼啼 自怨自艾
Crying and lamenting, feeling sorry for myself
已经太坏 不会更坏
It's already too bad, can't get worse
不能被过去的自己打败
Can't let my past self defeat me
想要被爱 就该是最爱
If I want to be loved, I must be the one who loves the most
地球在转 世界在看
The Earth keeps turning, and the world is watching
再多的解释都像是耍赖
No amount of explanations feels like just making excuses,
苦再苦 我都吞下来
Even if it's hard, I'll swallow the pain,
爱不爱都不简单
Love or not, it's never simple,
勉强爱互相伤害
Forcing love only leads to hurt,
失去爱又怕孤单
Fearing loneliness after losing love,
以前我不明白
I didn't understand it back then,
以后才正要展开
Only later did the real journey begin,
自己的比赛
It's a race of my own,
爱不爱都太为难
Love or not, it's way too difficult,
爱没有那么短暂
Love isn't as fleeting as it seems.
舍不得也要离开
Can't bear to leave, yet here I go.
放不下的无奈
The helplessness I can't let go.
就让给别人去爱
Let someone else take the love.
不需要摇摆
No need for any sway.
失恋并不失败
Heartbreak isn’t failure.
泪水 闪开
Tears, step aside.
我不需要 谁的怜爱
I don’t need anyone's pity.
爱情总会再来
Love will come back again.
别再 别再
Don't do it again, don't do it again.
哭哭啼啼 自怨自艾
Crying and lamenting, feeling sorry for myself.
已经太坏 不会更坏
Already too bad, it won't get worse.
不能被过去的自己打败
Can't be defeated by my past self.
想要被爱 就该是最爱
If I want to be loved, I must be the greatest love.
地球在转 世界在看
The Earth keeps spinning, the world is watching.
再多的解释都像是耍赖
No matter how many explanations, they just feel like excuses.
苦再苦 我都吞下来
No matter how bitter, I'll swallow it all.
爱不爱都不简单
Loving or not, it's never easy.
勉强爱互相伤害
Forcing love only brings mutual pain.
失去爱又怕孤单
Afraid of loneliness after losing love.
以前我不明白
In the past, I didn't understand.
以后才正要展开
Only then will it truly begin
自己的比赛
My own competition
爱不爱都太为难
Loving or not, it's all too hard
爱没有那么短暂
Love isn't that fleeting
舍不得也要离开
Reluctant to leave, yet must part
放不下的无奈
The helplessness of letting go
就让给别人去爱
Just let others be loved
不需要摇摆
No need to waver
(不需要摇摆)
(No need to waver)
爱不爱都放开
Loving or not, just let it go
(爱不爱都放开)
(Let go of love, whether you love or not)
爱不爱
Do you love or not?
爱不爱
Do you love or not?
爱不爱都不简单
Loving or not is never easy,
勉强爱互相伤害
Forcing love just brings us pain.
失去爱又怕孤单
Losing love and fearing the solitude,
以前我不明白
I didn't understand before,
以后才正要展开
Only later did I begin to unfold,
自己的比赛
My own competition.
爱不爱都太为难
Loving or not is too much trouble.
爱没有那么短暂
Love is not that fleeting
舍不得也要离开 (Oh-oooh, woah-oooh)
Reluctantly, I must part (Oh-oooh, woah-oooh)

就让给别人去爱 (别人去爱)
Let someone else be loved (let someone else be loved)

No need to sway back and forth

Love is not that fleeting
