Lyrics in Pinyin/Mandarin/English
huān xiào shēng huān hū shēng
欢笑声 欢呼声
Laughter, cheers
chǎo rè qì fēn xīn què hěn lěng
炒热气氛 心却很冷
Warm up the atmosphere, but my heart is cold
jù guāng dēng shì zhǒng méng ēn
聚光灯 是种蒙恩
The spotlight is a kind of grace
wǒ què bù néng hǎn děng yī děng
我却不能 喊等一等
But I can’t shout “wait a minute”
wǒ zhēn pèi fú wǒ hái néng yōu mò
我真佩服我 还能幽默
I really admire myself for still being able to be humorous
diào yǎn lèi shí yòng xiào yǎn guò
掉眼泪时 用笑掩过
Covering up tears with a smile
pà rén kàn pò gù lǜ hǎo duō
怕人看破 顾虑好多
Afraid of being seen through, with so many worries
bù tán jì mò wǒ men jiù dōu kuài huó
不谈寂寞 我们就都快活
If we don’t talk about loneliness, we’ll all be happy
wǒ bù chàng shēng sī lì jié de qíng gē
我不唱声嘶力竭的情歌
I don’t sing love songs at the top of my lungs
bù biǎo shì méi yǒu xīn suì de shí kè
不表示没有心碎的时刻
Doesn’t mean there are no moments of heartbreak
wǒ bù céng tān kāi shāng kǒu rèn zǎi gē
我不曾摊开伤口任宰割
I never laid open my wounds to be cut
yù hé jiù wú rén xiǎo de wǒ nèi xīn cuò zhé
愈合 就无人晓得 我内心挫折
Once healed, no one knows about the setbacks in my heart
huó xiàng gè gū dú huàn zhě zì wǒ lā chě

Living like a lonely patient, torn between myself

外向的孤独患者 有何不可
What’s wrong with being an outgoing lonely patient
xiào yuè dà shēng yuè shì cán rěn
笑越大声 越是残忍
The louder the laugh, the more cruel it is
jǐ mǎn tǐ wēn shì wēn gèng lěng
挤满体温 室温更冷
Filled with body warmth, the room temperature feels even colder
wàn yī guān dēng kōng xū rǎo rén
万一关灯 空虚扰人
If the lights are turned off by chance, emptiness disturbs
wǒ què bù néng hǎn děng yī děng

That I shouldn’t huddle in the corner

Planning to escape is also a mistake
