爆肝 Liver-Busting

詞曲:阿信
Music and Lyrics by Ashin

For both fireworks and myself, the darker it is the brighter we shine
When the sun sets that’s when I’m at my best

It’s not that I don’t love to sleep, it’s not that I don’t care enough for my liver,
it’s just that I still have so many, so many important things to do
It’s not that I don’t love the sunlight, it’s not that I’m not in love,
it’s just that I need to keep up the pace, play the game, shine in my youth

Night clubs – liver busting, night singing – liver busting, 
Raving, partying, carousing, I fear boredom, I don’t fear liver busting
Slaying monsters – liver busting, playing cards – liver busting,
Gluttonous, wanton, greedy, I fear annoyances, I don’t fear liver busting
Listening to music, liver busting, writing songs, liver busting,
Broken heart, broken liver, broken lungs, in the end all cried out
Who fears liver busting, who cares about liver busting,
Attractive, daring, astonishing, thrilled and so courageous

Moonlight, starlight greet me, glitteringly take the stage
Hot-blooded youth, that’s me, a crown that won’t be thrown off

It’s not that I don’t eat breakfast, it’s not that I don’t want to save my liver,
It’s just that I have too many difficulties and bitterness, my mood needs lifting
It’s not that I’m intentionally bad, it’s not that I don’t feel regret, It’s just that I want to challenge my personality, pluck the stars from the sky, extend the night

Night clubs – liver busting, night singing – liver busting, 
Raving, partying, carousing, I fear boredom, I don’t fear liver busting
Slaying monsters – liver busting, playing cards – liver busting,
Gluttonous, wanton, greedy, I fear annoyances, I don’t fear liver busting
Listening to music, liver busting, writing songs, liver busting,
Broken heart, broken liver, broken lungs, in the end all cried out
Who fears liver busting, who cares about liver busting,
Attractive, daring, astonishing, thrilled and so courageous

It’s not that I don’t eat breakfast, it’s not that I don’t want to save my liver,
It’s just that I have too many difficulties and bitterness, my mood needs lifting
It’s not that I’m intentionally bad, it’s not that I don’t feel regret,
It’s just that I don't want to care, don't want to care, don't want don't want to care
煙火 跟我 都是越 黑暗越燦爛
太陽 下山 就是我 的精華時段

不是不愛睡覺 不是不夠愛肝
我只是 還有很多 很多正經事要管
不是不愛陽光 不是不談戀愛
我只是 進度要趕 遊戲要玩 青春要糜爛

夜店 爆肝 夜唱 爆肝
狂熱狂舞狂歡 我怕悶不怕爆肝
打怪 爆肝 打牌 爆肝
貪吃貪玩貪心 我怕煩不怕爆肝
聽歌 爆肝 寫歌 爆肝
傷心傷肝傷肺 最後都哭成一團
誰怕 爆肝 誰管 爆肝
好樣好膽好駭 好爽又好勇敢

月光 星光 迎接我 閃亮的登台
熱血 青春 就是我 摔不壞的皇冠

不是不吃早餐 不是不想養肝
我只是 太多辛苦辛酸 心情需要被溺愛
不是故意學壞 不是不知悔改
我只是 人氣要衝 星星要摘 夜晚要拓寬

夜店 爆肝 夜唱 爆肝
狂熱狂舞狂歡 我怕悶不怕爆肝
打怪 爆肝 打牌 爆肝
貪吃貪玩貪心 我怕煩不怕爆肝
聽歌 爆肝 寫歌 爆肝
傷心傷肝傷肺 最後都哭成一團
誰怕 爆肝 誰管 爆肝
好樣好膽好駭 好爽又好勇敢

不是不吃早餐 不是不想養肝
我只是 太多辛苦辛酸 心情需要被溺愛
不是故意學壞 不是不知悔改
我只是 不想要管 不想要管 不想不想管

Notes:  So there's actually quite a lot of liver-busting going on in this album, but here's the place to explain it.  I'm told that the use of the term "liver busting" to mean "staying up all night" comes from an idea that lack of sleep damages the liver.  That said, this is just one of those things that is never going to sound as good in English as it does in Chinese.  Oh well.
