Intersection 路口

詞曲:張震嶽 
Music and Lyrics by Chang Chen-yue

Walking alone, this worthless intersection,
I’m still dreaming, thinking you could love me
My hopes are crushed, the cigarettes don’t leave my hands,
I smoke until my heart hurts

Walking together, this hated intersection,
You say you don’t love me, leave me miserable in the night
Didn’t even say goodbye, the tears are unending,
I cry until my nose runs

Love is a black hole, distorting everything,
I wanted to love you but I lost myself
I can no longer tell whether or not what I gave you was real love,
I can’t play this game anymore

Walking unwillingly, this fucking intersection,
Stupid shattered dreams, throw them in the toilet and flush them away
I’m still haven’t tried to save them, and haven't stopped smoking,
I cough until my heart hurts

Mired in this swamp, no one comes to save me,
My cell phone is full of messages you left me
The impatience in your eyes, flies at me like a knife,
In a flash, I finally understand

Walking alone, this worthless intersection,
I’m still dreaming, thinking you could love me
My hopes are crushed, the cigarettes don’t leave my hands,
I smoke until my heart hurts, I cry until my nose runs
I won’t be broken-hearted over you again
一個人走 無聊的路口 
我還在做夢 以為你會喜歡我
我的希望落空 而香菸不離手 
抽到我心很痛

兩個人走 我恨這路口 
你說不愛我 放我在夜裡難過
連再見也不說 而眼淚沒停過 
哭到我鼻涕流

愛情就是黑洞 扭曲我所有 
我想要愛你卻迷失了我自己
真的分不出來 給的是不是真愛 
遊戲 我玩不起來

我不想走 去你媽的路口 
破碎的痴夢 丟到馬桶讓水流
本人依然沒救 而香菸沒停過 
咳到我心很痛

深陷沼泥之中 沒有人救我 
手機上都是你曾經留的訊息
你眼神的不耐 有如利刃飛過來 
瞬間 我終於明白

一個人走 無聊的路口 
我還在做夢 以為你會喜歡我
我的希望落空 而香煙不離手 
抽到我心很痛 哭到我鼻涕流
不再為你 心痛

Notes:  One of the things I love about A-yue is his willingness to be so real in his lyrics – heartbreak is not all poetic, romantic imagery; sometimes it’s the indignity of crying so hard your nose runs. 

The clean, KTV version substitutes the “this fucking intersection (去你馬的路口)” with “your house’s intersection (去你家的路口).”  It’s an easy, one-character fix, and removes the need for the explicit tag.
