床前睡眠在抱怨
Sleep before my bed is filled with complaints
投诉我怎么不会倦
Grumbling how I never tire
日和夜已混乱
Days and nights have turned chaotic
未明白如没有你
Still can't grasp what life is without you
还要去清醒眼泪
Must awaken tears to face the dawn
睡眠便有罪
Sleep becomes a sin
明天将它包裹
Tomorrow I'll wrap it all up
邮寄给某天我
Mail it to a future me
到了寂寞无法再独过
When loneliness arrives, I can't bear to be alone
拿来代你拥着我
Take your place and hold me close
睡天睡地 睡完又睡
Sleep in the sky, sleep on the ground, then sleep some more,
睡得越累 越无顾虑
The more tired I get, the less I care,
狂吻着你 仍无限美
Kissing you wildly, still infinitely beautiful,
如睡醉生梦死
As if I’m lost in dreams, drunk and dying,
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
你要完全没过错
You have to be completely faultless,
何以你这么的懒惰
Why are you so lazy,
大堂独个坐
Sitting alone in the grand hall,
我有自由尚爱你
I have the freedom to still love you.
忘记要终于不快乐
Forget to finally be unhappy
睡眠骂我堕落
Sleep scolds me for falling apart
明天 (明天) 将它包裹 (将它包裹)
Tomorrow (tomorrow) will wrap it up (will wrap it up)
邮寄 (邮寄) 给某天我 (给某天我)
Mail it (mail it) to some day me (to some day me)
到了寂寞无法再独过
Arrived at loneliness, unable to go on alone
拿来代你拥着我
Take it to hold me instead of you
睡天睡地 睡完又睡
Sleep in the heavens, sleep on earth, sleep again and again
睡得越累 越无顾虑
The more tired I am from sleeping, the less I care
狂吻着你 仍无限美
Kissing you wildly, still infinitely beautiful
如睡醉生梦死
Like sleeping, drunk in dreams, dead to life
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
如睡醉生梦死
Like waking from a dream, lost in a drunken slumber
