Artist: Sweet John (Tián Yuēhàn)
Lyrics: Genwie Wu

又在相同時間點
若有似無的睡眠
緩慢指向通話鍵
緩慢後悔

yòu zài xiāng-tóng shí-jiān diǎn
ruò yǒu shì wú de shuì-mián
huǎn-màn zhǐ-xiàng tōng-huà-jiàn
huǎn-màn hòu-huǐ

At the same point in time again
As if I have had no sleep
Slowly my finger approaches the call button
Slowly I regret

仔細推理每條線
貌似鎮定的狼狽
失蹤人口的遊戲
還在上演

zǐ-xì tuī-lǐ měi tiáo xiàn
mào-sì zhèn-dìng de láng-bèi
shī-zōng rén-kǒu de yóu-xì
hái zài shàng-yǎn

Cautiously I speculate about every thread
Seemingly calm, in truth a pathetic figure
The missing population
Is still staging their game

※
留了座位卻沒出現
腳步踏得太重失去知覺
踩在相同支點上才能畫成一個圓
還是我們不曾在同個平面

liú le zuò-wèi què méi chū-xiàn
jiǎo-bù tà dé tài zhòng shī-qù zhī-jué
cǎi zài xiāng-tóng zhī-diǎn shàng cái-néng huà chéng yī gè yuán
hái-shì wǒ-men bù-céng zài tóng gè píng-miàn

I left a seat, but you didn’t appear
My footsteps were too heavy; I lost consciousness
We can only draw a full circle if we step onto the same fulcrum
Still we’ve never existed on the same geometrical plane

給自己一個期限
說好不再掉眼淚
只是凌晨的房間
缺少了誰

gěi zì-jǐ yī-gè qí-xiàn
shuō-hǎo bù-zài diào yǎn-lèi
zhǐ-shì líng-chén de fáng-jiān
quē-shǎo le shéi

I gave myself a deadline
Promised not to shed any more tears
Yet this post-midnight room
Is lacking someone
