  1. 多久找个借口 不必什么都懂

    How long has it been since I found an excuse, not having to understand it all?

  2. 委屈 哭了 孩子那样失控

    I felt wronged, so I cried, losing control like a child.

  3. 心痛不是罪过 为什么 可以冲动

    Feeling heartache isn’t a sin, so why can't I be impulsive?

  4. 那些点头朋友 狂欢剩下什么

    What remains after the wild revelry with those nodding friends?

  5. 上了 往前走 至少离开

    Got in the car, just drive on, at least leave for now.

  6. 无所谓 缓缓破碎

    I don’t care, let my heart slowly shatter.

  7. 既然不懂 不要责备

    Since you don’t understand, don’t point fingers.

  8. I don't wanna pray, I just wanna play

    I don't wanna pray, I just wanna play.

  9. 我不是心里认为 那个

    I’m not the one you think I am in your heart.

  10. I don't wanna stay, there's another way

    I don't wanna stay, there's another way.

  11. 玩到疲累 快乐沉醉 I don't wanna pray

    The more I play and get tired, the more bliss I'm lost in, I don't wanna pray

  12. 这样 什么放下

    Let's just leave it at that, letting everything go

  13. 不要以为 情愿当作刺猬 不用安慰

    Don't think that I'd rather be a hedgehog, so I won't need comfort

  14. I don't wanna pray, I just wanna play

    I don't wanna pray, I just wanna play

  15. 就是挣脱寂寞然后 不肯

    Isn't love just breaking free from loneliness, then refusing to give?

  16. I don't wanna stay, there's another way

    I don't wanna stay, there's another way

  17. 玩到疲累 快乐沉醉 I don't wanna pray

    The more I play and get tired, the more bliss I'm lost in, I don't wanna pray

  18. I don't wanna pray, I just wanna play

    I don't wanna pray, I just wanna play

  19. 都是直觉明知 不对

    Aren't people just relying on instinct, knowing that's wrong?

  20. I don't wanna stay, there's another way

    I don't wanna stay, there's another way

  21. 玩到疲累 快乐沉醉 I don't wanna pray

    The more tired I get from playing, the deeper my joy sinks, I don't wanna pray

  22. 离开只是因为 I don't wanna pray

    Leaving is just because, I don't wanna pray
