Song: 醒不來 (Xǐng bù lái) •Album: 唱遊 (1998)

醒不来

分不清白天 看不见黑夜
心情冷艳昼夜徘徊
分不清是非 看不见完美
十分酒醉 七分疲惫

不是想沉睡
噢 醒不来 醒来你依然不会在
不是醒不来
噢 醒来我还是发呆

分不清白天 看不见黑夜
心情冷艳昼夜徘徊
分不清是非 看不见完美
沉溺在昼夜的边界

不是想沉睡
噢 醒不来 醒来你依然不会在
不是醒不来
噢 醒来我还是发呆

朋友都说我夜里比较美
只因他们看不见我清醒的脸
朋友都说我夜里更冷艳
只因他们看不见我的悲

太阳升起来
噢 醒不来 醒来依然没有未来
月光洒下来
噢 醒不来 醒来我还是发呆

Can’t Wake Up

I can’t tell where the day starts and ends, I can’t see the dark night
My distant thoughts wander back and forth through the days and nights
I can’t tell right from wrong, I can’t see perfection
I’m a hundred percent wine-drunk, seventy percent bone-weary

It’s not that I want to remain in a slumber
Oh, I can’t wake up, because when I wake, you still won’t be here
It’s not that I can’t wake up
Oh, even when I wake, I’m lost in a daze

I can’t tell where the day starts and ends, I can’t see the dark night
My distant thoughts wander back and forth through the days and nights
I can’t tell right from wrong, I can’t see perfection
I wallow on the boundary between night and day

It’s not that I want to remain in a slumber
Oh, I can’t wake up, because when I wake, you still won’t be here
It’s not that I can’t wake up
Oh, even when I wake, I’m lost in a daze

My friends all say that I am more beautiful at night
But that is because they haven’t seen me lucid
My friends all say that I am more aloof at night
But that is because they can’t see my sadness

The sun rises
Oh, I can’t wake up; even when I wake, there is no foreseeable future
The moonlight pours down23
Oh, I can’t wake up; even when I wake, I’m lost in a daze
