  1. 自我被养大 伴侣便纵坏

    I was raised by myself, my partner just indulges in decay

  2. 多么腐败

    How deeply corrupt

  3. 爱仿似妖怪 会使我失态

    Love is like a monster, it makes me lose my way

  4. 处身悬崖

    Hanging on a cliff

  5. 爱可以很快 退烧也很快

    Love can cool off fast, just like a fever

  6. 冰火难挨

    Hard to bear the ice and fire

  7. 是我在撒赖 但我未算坏

    I'm being unreasonable, yet I'm not so bad

  8. 但爱情像魔鬼怎去踩

    But how to tread on love like a devil?

  1. 示爱便盼待 被爱亦意外

    To express love is to hope and wait, to be loved is a surprise

  2. 彼此虐待

    Mutual torment

  3. 我需要恋爱 爱得似乞丐

    I need love, love like a beggar

  4. 痴痴呆呆

    Dazed and foolish

  5. 我天性慷慨 献光我的爱

    By nature I'm generous, shining my love

  6. 必须人抬

    Must be lifted by others

  7. 害怕被我害 亦怕被害

    Afraid of being harmed by me, also scared of harm

  8. 就似逃避魔鬼想跳海

    Like escaping the devil, wanting to jump into the sea

  9. 我很惊见鬼 我很惊跌低

    I'm so scared of ghosts, I'm so scared of falling down

  10. 恋火一烧烧到底 未来迟早给摧毁

    When love ignites, it burns all the way, the future will eventually be destroyed

  11. 宁愿烦上帝 情欲能受制

    I'd rather annoy God, if desire can be controlled

  12. 让我受了洗 持续缠下去会病危

    Let me be baptized, continuing to cling on could be dangerous

  13. 我很惊见鬼 我很惊跌低

    I'm startled by ghosts, I'm shocked when I fall down.

  14. 恋火一早不够烧 累人累己真不抵

    The fire of love doesn't burn bright enough early on, exhausting both the heart and the soul.

  15. 宁愿求上帝 平静如避世

    I’d rather seek God, calm as if escaping the world.

  16. 避爱避到底 谁若谈论爱

    Avoiding love to the end, who dares to talk about love?

  17. 黑足一世

    A black foot for a lifetime.

  18. 没有落脚地 避也没法避

    With no place to land, there’s no way to escape.

  19. 飞天遁地

    Flying through the skies and hiding from the earth.

  20. 已讲对不起 说得快生气

    I've said sorry too quickly and it just makes me angry.

  21. 不舍难离

    Hard to let go, hard to part.

  22. 我都爱惜你 我偏更惊你

    I cherish you so much, yet I'm even more frightened of you.

  23. 只好逃离

    I can only escape

  24. 没有旧胜地 没有旧气味

    No old haunts, no familiar scents

  25. 别要成第一宗恋爱死

    Don't let it be your first love that kills you

  26. 我很惊见鬼 我很惊跌低

    I'm shocked to see ghosts, I'm scared I'll fall

  27. 恋火一烧烧到底 未来迟早给摧毁

    When the passion burns, it burns all the way, the future will eventually be destroyed

  28. 宁愿烦上帝 情欲能受制

    I'd rather trouble God than let desire take control

  29. 让我受了洗 持续缠下去会病危

    Let me be baptized, clinging on could lead to danger

  30. 我很惊见鬼我很惊见底

    I'm shocked to see ghosts, I'm scared to see the end

  31. 恋火一早不够烧 累人累己真不抵

    The fire of love doesn't burn bright enough, exhausting myself and others really isn't worth it

  32. 宁愿求上帝 平静如避世

    I'd rather seek God, peaceful like a hermit

  33. 避爱避到底 谁若谈论爱

    Avoid love to the end, who speaks of love?

  34. 黑足一世

    A life spent in shadows.

  35. 我很惊见鬼 我很惊跌低

    I’m shocked, I see ghosts, I’m shocked, I fall down.

  36. 恋火一烧烧到底 未来迟早给摧毁

    When love's fire burns hot, it will eventually be destroyed.

  37. 宁愿烦上帝 情欲能受制

    I’d rather bother God, than let passion control me.

  38. 让我受了洗 持续缠下去会病危

    Let me be baptized, continuing this will lead to danger.

  39. 我很惊见鬼我很惊见底

    I’m shocked, I see ghosts, I'm shocked, I see the depths.

  40. 恋火一早不够烧 累人累己真不抵

    When love's flame burns too early, it exhausts both us and me.

  41. 宁愿求上帝 平静如避世

    I’d rather seek God, peaceful as I escape the world.

  42. 避爱避到底 谁若谈论爱

    Avoid love to the end, who speaks of love?

  43. 黑足一世

    A lifetime in black feet
