Zhou Xuan (周旋)

Yitai Wang & AIR (王以太 & 艾熱AIR)
诚实会让我讨厌你的话诚实的像是胶片
chéng shí huì ràng wǒ tǎo yàn nǐ de huà chéng shí de xiàng shì jiāo piàn
Being honest makes me grow to dislike you, honest like film.
爱你像不停发烧你用行动在为我的炎症消炎
ài nǐ xiàng bù tíng fā shāo nǐ yòng xíng dòng zài wèi wǒ de yán zhèng xiāo yán
Loving you is like a never-ending fever, your actions are soothing my inflammation.
消磨了很多力气但我的青春已不值一提
xiāo mó le hěn duō lì qì dàn wǒ de qīng chūn yǐ bù zhí yī tí
I’ve spent a lot of energy, but my youth is hardly worth mentioning.
我只想在你欠我的账本上再狠狠的记上一笔
wǒ zhǐ xiǎng zài nǐ qiàn wǒ de zhàng běn shàng zài hěn hěn de jì shàng yī bǐ
I just want to add a heavy mark on the ledger of what you owe me.
你是我情话的由来
nǐ shì wǒ qíng huà de yóu lái
You are the origin of my sweet nothings.
而我是你情话的韭菜
ér wǒ shì nǐ qíng huà de jiǔ cài
And I am the chives of your sweet nothings.
自愿暴露给你的答案早已经经不起任何的修改
zì yuàn bào lù gěi nǐ de dá àn zǎo yǐ jīng jīng bù qǐ rèn hé de xiū gǎi
The answer I willingly expose to you can no longer withstand any revisions.
陷入了泥潭我心里面明白也斗争过
xiàn rù le ní tán wǒ xīn lǐ miàn míng bái yě dòu zhēng guò
Stuck in a quagmire, I understand inside and have fought against it.
失衡的棋盘我也只能参考你修正我
shī héng de qí pán wǒ yě zhǐ néng cān kǎo nǐ xiū zhèng wǒ
On this imbalanced chessboard, I can only refer to you to correct me.
参考你修正我
cān kǎo nǐ xiū zhèng wǒ
Refer to you to correct me.
比自己找出口有用的多
bǐ zì jǐ zhǎo chū kǒu yǒu yòng de duō
It's much more useful than finding a way out by myself.
但你关上灯一盏一盏
dàn nǐ guān shàng dēng yī zhǎn yī zhǎn
But you turn off the lights one by one.
演绎的剧情是《一半一半》
yǎn yì de jù qíng shì 《 yí bàn yí bàn 》
The storyline is 'half and half.'
一半是憧憬一半是回忆
yí bàn shì chōng jǐng yí bàn shì huí yì
Half is longing, half is memory.
继续下去也是差不多
jì xù xià qù yě shì chà bu duō
Continuing like this is nearly the same.
最后也没有圆满的段落
zuì hòu yě méi yǒu yuán mǎn de duàn luò
In the end, there's no perfect conclusion.
直到连电话也打不通
zhí dào lián diàn huà yě dǎ bù tōng
Until even the calls can't get through.
每朵黎明的乌云
měi duǒ lí míng de wū yún
Every cloud at dawn is like a constant reminder to me.
都像在对我不停的提醒
dōu xiàng zài duì wǒ bù tíng de tí xǐng
They say if you don't let go soon.
他们说如果你再不放手
tā men shuō rú guǒ nǐ zài bù fàng shǒu
The smiling faces around you will turn into mud.
身边的笑脸都变成泥泞
shēn biān de xiào liǎn dōu biàn chéng ní nìng
I say the speculation of a broken heart.
我说心碎的揣测
wǒ shuō xīn suì de chuǎi cè
Felt cheap happiness.
快乐过廉价的快乐
kuài lè guò lián jià de kuài lè
Pretending I can gaze into your eyes.
假装能凝视你眼睛
jiǎ zhuāng néng níng shì nǐ yǎn jīng
I believe your kind lies.
你善意的谎言我相信
nǐ shàn yì de huǎng yán wǒ xiāng xìn
But you are a heartbreaker, a sundowner.
但你是一个 heartbreaker sundowner
dàn nǐ shì yí gè heartbreaker sundowner
How I wish you were the one negotiating with me.
多希望是你周旋着我妥协着
duō xī wàng shì nǐ zhōu xuán zhe wǒ tuǒ xié zhe
But in the end, it’s words that pierce and hands that are cold.
但最后却是言语刺骨手冰冷
dàn zuì hòu què shì yán yǔ cì gǔ shǒu bīng lěng
I cannot thank you for the sympathy in your words.
我无法感谢你嘴里的同情
wǒ wú fǎ gǎn xiè nǐ zuǐ lǐ de tóng qíng
How I wish you were a gold digger, a mind seeker.
多希望你是 gold digger mindseeker
duō xī wàng nǐ shì gold digger mindseeker
But in reality, you just leave me behind.
是你对我在索取着罗列着
shì nǐ duì wǒ zài suǒ qǔ zhe luó liè zhe
It's you who is demanding from me, laying it all out.
但现实却是我无法让你兴奋
dàn xiàn shí què shì wǒ wú fǎ ràng nǐ xīng fèn
But the reality is, I can't excite you.
你连被追求都难以配合是谁的错
nǐ lián bèi zhuī qiú dōu nán yǐ pèi hé shì shéi de cuò
You struggle to even reciprocate being pursued; whose fault is it?
可能吧恍若一场短暂却绚烂的烟花
kě néng ba huǎng ruò yī cháng duǎn zàn què xuàn làn de yān huā
Perhaps it's like a brief but brilliant firework display.
过客是注定陌路像宿命有偏差
guò kè shì zhù dìng mò lù xiàng sù mìng yǒu piān chā
Passersby are destined to be strangers, like fate with deviations.
倾尽一切还被戏虐我不强求
qīng jǐn yī qiè hái bèi xì nüè wǒ bù qiǎng qiú
I gave everything, yet I'm mocked; I don't force it.
挽留无效感受不到手心残余温柔
wǎn liú wú xiào gǎn shòu bú dào shǒu xīn cán yú wēn róu
Holding on is ineffective; I can't feel the remnants of your warmth in my palm.
幻觉是相濡以沫却都耐不住磕碰
huàn jué shì xiāng rú yǐ mò què dōu nài bú zhù kē pèng
Illusions share tenderness, but can't withstand the bumps.
目光所及都隐着痛困于过往不醒的梦
mù guāng suǒ jí dōu yǐn zhe tòng kùn yú guò wǎng bù xǐng de mèng
Everywhere I look hides pain, trapped in an unawakened dream of the past.
爱若要被命运捉弄又何必让心波动
ài ruò yào bèi mìng yùn zhuō nòng yòu hé bì ràng xīn bō dòng
If love must be toyed with by fate, why let the heart be stirred?
终究还是落空下一个又会是谁
zhōng jiū hái shì luò kōng xià yí gè yòu huì shì shuí
In the end, it's still unfulfilled; who will the next one be?
往昔的点点滴滴永久在相互的影子里留下了烙印
wǎng xī de diǎn diǎn dī dī yǒng jiǔ zài xiāng hù de yǐng zi lǐ liú xià le lào yìn
Every detail of the past leaves a mark in each other's shadows forever.
承诺它奄奄一息重演着相似的剧情变泡影
chéng nuò tā yǎn yǎn yī xī chóng yǎn zhe xiāng sì de jù qíng biàn pào yǐng
Promises are gasping for air, replaying similar scripts, turning into bubbles.
以为海面再暴风雨还有你理解
yǐ wéi hǎi miàn zài bào fēng yǔ hái yǒu nǐ lǐ jiě
I thought that even in the stormy seas, you would understand me.
回忆无声肆虐侵略虚无的每一夜
huí yì wú shēng sì nüè qīn lüè xū wú de měi yī yè
Silent memories ravage each void-filled night.
一眼万年只是我以为
yī yǎn wàn nián zhǐ shì wǒ yǐ wéi
A glance spans a thousand years, or so I thought.
自卑蔓延着早将我击退
zì bēi màn yán zhe zǎo jiāng wǒ jī tuì
Insecurity has spread, striking me back.
所以不再问原因不奢求怜悯
suǒ yǐ bù zài wèn yuán yīn bù shē qiú lián mǐn
So I no longer ask why, nor do I seek pity.
凝视你眼睛
níng shì nǐ yǎn jīng
Gazing into your eyes.
善意的谎言也终将尽
shàn yì de huǎng yán yě zhōng jiāng jǐn
Even kind lies will eventually end.
但你是一个 heartbreaker sundowner
dàn nǐ shì yí gè heartbreaker sundowner
How I wish you were the one negotiating with me.
多希望是你
duō xī wàng shì nǐ
How I wish it were you.
周旋着妥协着
zhōu xuán zhe tuǒ xié zhe
Circling and compromising.
但最后却是言语刺骨
dàn zuì hòu què shì yán yǔ cì gǔ
But in the end, the words pierce to the bone.
手冰冷
shǒu bīng lěng
My hands are cold.
我无法感谢你嘴里的同情
wǒ wú fǎ gǎn xiè nǐ zuǐ lǐ de tóng qíng
How I wish you were a gold digger, a mind seeker.
多希望你是 gold digger manseeker
duō xī wàng nǐ shì gold digger manseeker
How I wish you were a gold digger or a manseeker.
是你对我在索取着,罗列着
shì nǐ duì wǒ zài suǒ qǔ zhe, luó liè zhe
It's you who is demanding from me, laying it all out.
但现实却是
dàn xiàn shí què shì
But the reality is.
我无法让你兴奋
wǒ wú fǎ ràng nǐ xīng fèn
I can't excite you.
你连被追求都难以配合
nǐ lián bèi zhuī qiú dōu nán yǐ pèi hé
You struggle to even reciprocate being pursued.
像灰色的天空还没下雨
xiàng huī sè de tiān kōng hái méi xià yǔ
Like a gray sky that hasn't yet rained.
我远远看着你暂时还没靠近
wǒ yuǎn yuǎn kàn zhe nǐ zàn shí hái méi kào jìn
I'm watching you from a distance, not yet close.
期待我吐的烟能够将你抱紧
qī dài wǒ tǔ de yān néng gòu jiāng nǐ bào jǐn
I hope the smoke I exhale can hold you tight.
你还没成为我生命里的教训
nǐ hái méi chéng wéi wǒ shēng mìng lǐ de jiào xùn
You haven't yet become a lesson in my life.
但雨总会落下
dàn yǔ zǒng huì là xià
But rain will always fall.
一滴一滴
yī dī yī dī
Drop by drop.
湖面涟漪让我看不清了倒影
hú miàn lián yī ràng wǒ kàn bù qīng le dào yǐng
The ripples on the lake surface make the reflection unclear.
我的心里话终究让你扫兴
wǒ de xīn lǐ huà zhōng jiū ràng nǐ sǎo xìng
My heartfelt words ultimately disappoint you.
你是我永远唱不上去的高音
nǐ shì wǒ yǒng yuǎn chàng bù shàng qù de gāo yīn
You are the high note that I can never reach.
