《如何拯救自己》

Lyricist: Sheng Juliang
作词.盛鞠良

Twilight sweeps over the mottled windowsill
暮色漫过斑驳的窗台
The lingering warmth on your fingertips has faded away
你指尖余温已消散不再
Perfunctory words are like ice and snow, freezing my heart's sea
敷衍话语似冰雪 封冻心海
I piece together the fragmented dialogues
我拼凑着 支离破碎的对白

Memories keep wandering at midnight
回忆在午夜不停徘徊
Others are more important and lovable than me
别人都比我 重要和可爱
Indifference is like a thorn, piercing into my heart
漠然如刺 扎进心怀
Licking my wounds, I can't get any favor
舔舐伤痕 等不到青睐

When expectations are buried by reality
当期待被现实深埋
When deep affection is exhausted and turns into nothingness
当深情耗尽成空白
I finally understand that love is not about patience
我终于明白 爱不是忍耐
It's time to say byebye to the wrong love
是时候 向错爱说bye bye

How to save myself, escape from this abyss of suffering
如何拯救自己 逃离这深渊苦海
Not trapped in waiting, humbled to the dust
不困于一次等候 卑微到尘埃
Time is the most gentle relief
时间是最温柔的释怀
Let the tears wash away all the helplessness
让眼泪 冲走所有无奈

I once thought that love could heal the wounds
曾以为爱能治愈伤害
But I forgot that love should be in a mutual gesture
却忘了爱应是相向的姿态
The eyes in the mirror have lost their bright brilliance
镜中眼神 失去明亮神彩
Like dark clouds, covering the starry sea of the night
像乌云 遮住夜的星海
I have to dry my tears and find a new future
只好擦干泪 重觅未来

How to save myself, wake up from the predicament
如何拯救自己 从困局中醒来
No longer deceive myself, clinging to unresponsive expectations
不再哄骗自己 执着没回应的期待
Perhaps letting go is the right mindset
或许放下 才是正确心态
Even if I'm alone, there's a different kind of freedom
就算孤单 也有别样自在

Put away all the love I want to give
收起所有 想付出的爱
Quietly leave before the tears dry up
在泪水风干前 悄然离开
From now on, my heart will no longer wait bitterly
从此心 不再苦苦等待
Learn to let go, learn to move on
学会看开 学会释怀

How to save myself, break free from this shadow of fate
如何拯救自己 挣脱这命运阴霾
Not being humbled to the dust for a promise
不为一句承诺 卑微到尘埃
Time will soothe all the helplessness
时光会抚平所有的无奈
Let the sea of my heart regain its glorious luster
让心海 重绽希望光彩

How to save myself, break through this obstacle of the predicament
如何拯救自己 打破这困局阻碍
No longer cling to unresponsive expectations
不再执着于 没回应的期待
Let go of the past and embrace a new future
放下过往 拥抱新的未来
Even if I'm alone, it's a kind of wonder
哪怕孤单 自是一种精彩

When the morning star rises in the east
当启明星 从东方升起
The gentle morning light spills over the sea of my heart
温柔晨光 洒满心海
I finally understand that a new bud of love
我终于明白 新的爱芽
Is quietly blooming
正悄然 绽放盛开
