暗湧 [Am Yung] [English translation]

Even if the sky gets deeper

The cracks couldn’t be seen

Dense clouds still loom over my brows

Even a room of dim light is

Unable to illuminate me

It can still reflect your heart

As this puff of smoke floats up, my body sinks down

I had really, really wanted to move closer

Yet I have no affinity with your heart and eyes, lips and ears

I cannot hold onto them

‘fraid that tragedy will repeat itself

In my life, my life

The more beautiful something is, the more I cannot touch

History is repeating itself

In this bustling city

How can there be no undercurrents [1] in love

What’s the point if I cherish you once more

Is it that this time I wouldn’t be hugging you in vain

I’m still waiting quietly for you to say that I'm paranoid

But I have this intuition

Then I couldn’t open my eyes to watch Fate arrive

And then the sky is surging with dense clouds again
