我 所有耐性用完 魂魄像驮盘
I'm all out of patience, my soul feels like a burdened plate.
冒著大汗 再次抱怨可否快点
Sweating profusely, I complain again, can't we hurry this up?
妳 任我沿途在怨 犹如从未听见
You let me grumble along the way, as if you've never heard a word.
继续黑起脸 喷著第四口烟
Still frowning, puffing out my fourth breath of smoke.
未看到如何前去 但已知无从回去
Not seeing the way ahead, but knowing there's no turning back.
这种错恋多爱一天 再一天
This kind of wrong love, lasting one more day, then another.
我今天 竟仍然留在里面
Yet today, I'm still trapped inside this.
我 原来无路可退
I realize now there’s no way to retreat.
停留在重灾区 著了急 仍呆坐这里
Stuck in this disaster zone, anxious, still sitting right here.
这关系像架车困扰挤塞的市区
This relationship feels like a car stuck in a congested city.
无言同路的一对
A pair walking in silence
看著残酷的世界
Gazing at a cruel world
还能做做爱侣 还是要忍下去
Still able to be lovers, yet we must endure
我 跟妳在等弯转 何以未转灯
I, waiting with you for the turn, why hasn't the light changed?
烈日下令冷气太暖想开猛点
Under the scorching sun, the air conditioner feels too warm, I want to crank it up
我 又再泊前十吋 难挨程度不变
I'm parked again ten inches forward, the difficulty remains the same
翳闷车厢里各自坐上针毽
In the stifling car, each sits on a needle of fate
未看到如何前去 但已知无从回去
Not seeing how to move forward, but already knowing there's no way back
这种错恋多爱一天 再一天
This kind of wrong love, loving one more day, then another day
我今天 竟仍然留在里面
Today, I surprisingly still linger inside
我 原来无路可退
I've found myself with no way out
停留在重灾区 著了急 仍呆坐这里
Stuck in this disaster zone, anxious yet still sitting here
这关系像架车困扰挤塞的市区
This relationship feels like a car stuck in a congested city
无言同路的一对
A silent pair, walking the same road
看著残酷的世界
Gazing at the cruel world
还能做做爱侣 还是要忍下去
Can we still be lovers, or must we just endure?
离合器令我很累
The clutch leaves me so weary
逐吋的逐吋的蚁行下去
Every inch, dragging on like an ant
被困这里 没法收队
Trapped here, unable to regroup
爱 原来无路可退
Love, turns out, has no retreat.
停留在重灾区 著了急 仍呆坐这里
Stuck in the disaster zone, anxious yet still sitting here,
这关系像架车困扰挤塞的市区
This relationship's like a vehicle, trapped in a congested city.
无言同路的一对
A pair walking silently together,
看著残酷的世界
Gazing upon this cruel world,
还能做做爱侣 还是要忍下去
Can we still be lovers, or must we endure it all?
