  1. 存在一种危险关系

    You and I, there's a dangerous bond we share,

  2. 彼此挟持 另一部分自己

    Holding each other hostage, a different side of ourselves,

  3. 以为完整爱的定义

    Thought I had defined love in its entirety,

  4. 那就乖乖

    So I'll carefully protect you, just as you are,

  5. 相爱变成猜忌怀疑游戏

    Love has turned into a game of suspicion and doubt,

  6. 规则呼吸

    The rule is to hold your breath and get closer,

  7. 你的温柔唯一沉溺

    But your tenderness is my only addiction,

  8. 你是我的不怕缝隙

    If you love me, there's no fear of gaps,

  9. 用力一枪

    With a strong shot right through my heart,

  10. 一切 巨响

    Let everything reset, with this thunderous sound.

  11. 如果什么都不能

    If love means holding onto everything tight,

  12. 我不挣扎 反正我也

    I won’t struggle, it doesn’t matter to me either way.

  13. 相爱变成猜忌怀疑游戏

    Love has turned into a rotten game of doubt and suspicion.

  14. 规则呼吸越来越

    The rule is to hold your breath, inching ever closer.

  15. 你的温柔唯一沉溺

    But your tenderness is my only addiction.

  16. 你是我的不怕缝隙

    As long as you love me, I'm not afraid of the cracks.

  17. 用力一枪

    With all my heart, I pull the trigger against you.

  18. 一切 巨响

    Let everything reset with this deafening sound.

  19. 如果什么都不能

    If love means holding onto everything tight,

  20. 我不挣扎 反正我也

    I won’t struggle, it doesn’t matter to me either way.

  21. 人质一刻得到释放

    The hostage is freed at this moment

  22. 相爱纯粹落得如此下场

    The purity of love ends up like this

  23. 满意 我们 说谎

    Are you satisfied? Let's not lie to each other
