給自己的情書

請不要灰心 你也會有人妒忌 你仰望到太高 貶低的只有自己
別盪失太早 旅遊有太多勝地 你記住你髮膚 會與你慶祝鑽禧

lalala 慰藉自己 開心的東西要專心記起
lalala 愛護自己 是地上拾到的真理
寫這高貴情書 用自言自語 作我的天書
自己都不愛 怎麼相愛 怎麼可給愛人好處
這千斤重情書 在夜闌盡處 如門前大樹 沒有他倚靠 歸家也不必撇雨

請不要哀傷 我會當你是偶像 你要別人憐愛 先安裝一個藥箱
做甚麼也好 別為著得到讚賞 你要強壯到底 再去替對方設想

拋得開手裡玩具 先懂得好好進睡
深谷都攀過後 從泥濘尋到這不甘心相信的金句

寫這高貴情書 用自言自語 作我的天書
自己都不愛 怎麼相愛 怎麼可給愛人好處
這千斤重情書 在夜闌盡處 如門前大樹 他不可倚靠 歸家也不必撇雨

我要給我 寫這高貴情書 用自言自語 作我的天書
自己都不愛 怎麼相愛 怎麼可給愛人好處
憑著我這千斤重情書 在夜闌盡處 如門前大樹 沒有他倚靠 歸家也不必撇雨
