武裝  Armor

詞曲:阿信 
Words and Music by Ashin

I’ve forgotten what’s precious, forgotten memory, broken the toys I once loved so much
I’ve learned to keep my distance, learned how to give up, learned how never again to have memories
The city of heaven is found by separating from the body; I’ve loved before, so I’m especially broken-hearted

At last I start to armor myself, using my tears to wash myself
At last I start to armor myself, wanting to strengthen my weak heart
At last I start to armor myself, I’ll have a name but no personality
At last I start to armor myself, I’ll live by my logic

I’ve stored up terror, fell in love with terror, now I’ll never be terrified again
Who wants me to endure, gave me life, is the one who gave me lifeblood
The sound of it bleeding from this body, I’ll return it to you, this thing I don’t cherish

At last I start to armor myself, using my tears to wash myself
At last I start to armor myself, wanting to strengthen my weak heart
At last I start to armor myself, I’ll have a name but no personality
At last I start to armor myself, I’ll live by destroying my destiny


我忘了珍惜 忘了回憶 摔壞心愛的玩具
我學著遠離 學著放棄 學著再沒有回憶
天空的城 在解體 愛過 所以特別 的傷心

最後我開始武裝自己 用眼淚 洗過自己
最後我開始武裝自己 要強化 軟弱的心
最後我開始武裝自己 有名字 沒有個性
最後我開始武裝自己 我活著 用我的邏輯

我收藏恐懼 愛上恐懼 那就再沒有恐懼
誰要我忍受 給我生命 是誰給了我 血液
流 出身體 的聲音 還你 我不稀罕 的東西

最 後我開始武裝自己 用眼淚 洗過自己
最 後我開始武裝自己 要強化 軟弱的心
最 後我開始武裝自己 有名字 沒有個性
最 後我開始武裝自己 我活著 殺出我命運

Notes:  I'm not at all sure why I had originally translated
武裝 camouflage; it's certainly not a definition supported by any of my Chinese-English dictionaries.  Anyway, this is better.  A big thanks to Peiyis for suggesting a better translation.

The Love of May "Soul Remix" added the following lyrics to the song between the first chorus and the second verse:

Just exactly who is it that brought me here, then abandoned me
Just exactly where is this place, and then where am I going

Deep breaths, deep breaths,  to live one must remain calm
Deep breaths, deep breaths,  to live one must remain calm

Armor doesn't use weapons, armor doesn't use weapons
Armor doesn't use knives, or guns, or weapons

Armor doesn't use weapons, armor doesn't use weapons
Use my logic to go play, who's afraid of the brutal world?

到底是誰 帶我來 然後把我拋棄
到 底這裡 是哪裡 然後要去哪裡

深呼吸深呼吸 生存都要冷靜
深 呼吸深呼吸 生存都要冷靜

武裝不用武器 武裝不用武器
武 器並不用刀不用槍不用武器

武裝不用武器 武裝不用武器
用自己的邏輯去遊戲哪怕在殘酷的天地
