Lyrics and translation 張敬軒 - Zen Mo Ke

Zen Mo Ke

怎麼可
舊日常找這句話取笑我
每當我翻箱倒籠惹大禍
你笑著問 一句怎麼可

年月共你相處過
夜夜成雙去散步甚諧和
愛跟我講心聲訴說負荷
我太幸運 得到你撫摸

但你自某天工作漸變多
在外時候甚多
每日唯獨希望
晚上團聚跟你過
但你每多
踏入門內還未躺臥
一瞬間已進睡撇低我

彷彿再渴望跟你繾綣已是極傻
彷彿不想我相伴助你拔河
應該開始去習慣一個孤單的過
連沉默也不錯

自某日你與她燃亮愛火
立誓同住樂窩
接著有下一代
過程全沒牽涉我
甚至上鎖
要我籠內呆著躺臥
慎防寶貝會被我傷過

今天再渴望跟你繾綣已是極傻
根本不需這拖累著你的我
一早懂得去習慣一個孤單的過
籠牢視作被窩

終於狠心作決定將我趕進托管居所
因舉家將遠徙 須要丟低我
此刻可否輕拍我麼
以慰藉臨離別淒楚
可是我奢望卻不果

怎麼可
現在重複這句話只有我
怎麼我的愛竟變你負荷
要我地獄呆坐

Zen Mo Ke

How can you
Use this old phrase to make fun of me
Whenever I make a mess and cause a scene
You laughingly ask: How can you

How many years we've spent together
Every night we go for walks, so harmonious
You love to share your heart and tell me your burdens
I'm so lucky to receive your gentle touch

But one day, your work started to get busier
You spend more and more time away from home
Every day, my only wish
Is to reunite with you in the evening
But every time
You walk through the door and don't even lie down
You immediately fall asleep, leaving me alone

It's as if my desire to be close to you is foolish
As if you don't want me by your side to help you through
I should start getting used to being alone
Even silence is better than this

One day, you and her ignited the flame of love
Vowing to live together in a cozy nest
And then you had a child
All of this happening without me
You even locked me up
Forcing me to stay in a cage
To protect your precious baby from me

Now, my desire to be close to you is foolish
You don't need me, I'm just a burden
I have long since learned to live alone
My cage has become my nest

Finally, you made the heartless decision to send me to a nursing home
Because your family is moving far away and you need to leave me behind
Can you please just give me a gentle pat now
To comfort me as I face this heartbreaking farewell
But my hopes are in vain

How can you
Now, only I repeat this phrase
How did my love become a burden to you
You want me to rot in hell
