<br />
壞的權力 假的罪名 血染的詩 喧囂的暴力<br />
圍繞著我們的愛情 讓我們窒息<br />
<i>Dark power...faulty accusations...poems stained with blood...noisy violence...</i><br />
<i>surrounding our love, making us suffocate</i><br />
<br />
他們依靠我們的眼涙 為了洗濯可悲的愚昧<br />
因為害怕所以防備 這就是人類<br />
<i>They rely on our tears to wash away their pathetic ignorance</i><br />
<i>holding guard because they're scared...that is human</i><br />
<br />
「蠻荒年代直到現在 飛上月球看到未來<br />
歪曲的恨卻依然存在 多少年來沒有明白...不曾明白」<br />
<i>From the era of savages until today, flying to the moon and looking into the future</i><br />
<i>The distorted hatred is still here, so many years and they still don't understand...</i><br />
<br />
不能改變整個宇宙 不能控制愛的念頭<br />
綑綁我們卻同時反鎖 他們的自由<br />
<i>They can't change the universe, they can't control the thoughts of love</i><br />
<i>they tie us up but at the same time they're locking up their own freedom</i><br />
<br />
Repeat「」<br />
<br />
蠻荒年代直到現在 飛上月球看到未來<br />
遼闊的天狹窄的胸懷 世界還有甚麼未來<br />
<i>From the era of savages until today, flying to the moon and looking into the future</i><br />
<i>The sky is broad but people are narrow-minded, how can there be a future in our world?</i><br />
<br />
不求甚麼掌聲喝采 只因為愛所以戀愛<br />
我們的愛一直都存在 還在等待一份尊重 一份明白<br />
<i>We don't ask for applauses and cheers, we only love because of love</i><br />
<i>our love still exists, and we're still waiting for respect and understanding</i><br />
<br />
後記 (Notes):<br />
<i>We don't need to hurt others to protect ourselves.</i><br />
<i>We don't need to judge others to prove ourselves right.</i><br />
<i>We are who we are...why can't we let people be who they are?</i><br />
