We chat every night
We go tit for tat, always those two phrases
Did you miss me?
I’m really missing you
Hualalalalala
Hualalalalala
Stars are falling from heaven
This, isn’t it pretty good?

He has a wife
This doesn’t matter, it doesn’t bother me
We don’t talk about the future or the past
Mood becomes so beautiful
Otherwise... what?
It really doesn’t matter

He says he wants to come, to come see me
Ah, I’m actually rather scared
What kind of person is he
I have no idea
I just know his WeChat account
Basically
This isn’t great

Day after day, it just goes on like this
Meet or don’t meet, this is a conundrum
He’s so enthusiastic
If I refuse
Those tedious, long nights...
Oh, I shouldn’t refuse
Can we just push it back a bit
Anyway
Anyway
Anyway
We aren’t lacking anything

Chinese lyrics

我们每晚,每晚聊天
说来说去总是那两句
你想我了吗
我好想你呀
哗啦哗啦哗啦
哗啦啦啦啦啦
天上掉星星啦
这样,不是挺好吗

他有一个结婚对象
这没有什么,我并不介意
我们不谈什么将来和过去
心情变得好美丽
其他……什么?
真的没关系

他说要来,要来看我
哎呀,我居然会有一点害怕
他是什么人
我都不知道
只有一个微信号
总之
感觉不太妙

一天一天就这样过去
约还是不约,这是一个问题
他那么热烈
我要是拒绝
那漫漫的长夜
欧,我不要拒绝
能不能再晚一些
反正
反正
反正
什么都不缺

Challenge #147: My continents wait for you to name them


Lyrics

We softly open our eyes
Slowly the shimmering water surface becomes translucent
Breathe quietly under the water
Furtively, quietly awaken
Nicely breathe light and shadow

Our heels lift up
Breathing together in the good old days
Slowly thriving in this place
Slowly in this place
Softly
Softly

When the world has been fully explored, the oceans and continents have all been named
My expansive universe soul will have many mysteries waiting for you

My heart's continents can still be named by you, there's a place for you there

Birthmarks on my skin are a panoply of stars
It's a star atlas that guides you to cruise towards my universe, my soul
My continents wait for you to name them

My soul, my body
Breathes together with you
Peel off mundanity and melancholy

Chinese lyrics

轻轻地我们睁开眼睛
慢慢地波光水面透明
静静地水底呼吸
偷偷地 偷偷悄悄 清醒
好好地 好好呼吸光影

我们的脚跟扬起
流光中一起换气
慢慢就在这里好
慢慢就在这里
轻地
轻地

当世界被探索完毕,海洋陆地都被命名
我宽阔的宇宙心灵 还有许多未知在等着你

我的心仍可以以你命名陆地,包容存放着你

肌肤上的痣是繁星
是星图它引领着你 航向我的宇宙心灵
我的陆地等你命名

我的心灵,我的身体
与你一起呼吸
剥落尘俗忧郁

You let me embrace the ocean
The blind man says
The ocean lets me embrace you

I don’t want everyone to know I didn’t do anything today
I’m very busy, don’t keep sending messages to me
I’ve already read them, even without unlocking my phone I can read them

I don’t want everyone to know what I ate today
I’m very full, ate a stomach full of junk food
I didn’t take a picture, the natural light outside the window wasn't enough

So when you’re busy uploading your
New earrings and denim jacket
What I’m doing, you don’t know
So when you’re busy photoshopping
You with a piece of strawberry cake
What I’m doing, you don’t know
You don’t know

I don’t want everyone to know what I’m wearing today
I got out of bed, but after getting out of bed I didn’t change
Didn’t put on makeup, no luxury brands, no selfie stick

But I have filters filters filters filters
A filter for dating and a filter for failure to understand
A filter for a fake me

So when you’re busy uploading your
New earrings and denim jacket
What I’m doing, you don’t know
So when you’re busy photoshopping
You with a piece of strawberry cake
What I’m doing, you don’t know

You’re strolling down the street, you’re breaking up with someone
You’re getting married, you’re drinking alcohol
You go to Japan, you watch the sunset

You give birth, you’re running a fever
You eat hot pot, you win the lottery
You ride the high-speed train, you have a partner

You get a haircut, you have a birthday
You’re working overtime, you watch a movie
You’re working out, you’re very healthy

Meow! (Really)

When you’re busy uploading your
New earrings and denim jacket
What I’m doing, you don’t know
So when you’re busy photoshopping
You with a piece of strawberry cake
What I’m doing, you don’t know
You don’t know
You don’t know

Chinese lyrics

我不想要大家知道今天我没在做什么
我很忙,别在一直传送讯息给我
我已读,手机不 解锁也能读

我不想要大家知道今天我有吃了什么
我很饱 ,吃了一肚子的垃圾食物
我没拍,窗户外自然光不足

所以 当你忙着上传你的
新耳环和牛仔外套
我在做什么,你不知道
所以 当你还在努力修图
你和一片草莓蛋糕
我在做什么,你不知道
你不知道

我不想要大家知道今天我是穿着什么
我起床,但是起床之后没换衣服
没化妆,少了名牌,少了自拍棒

但我有滤镜滤镜 滤镜滤镜
谈恋爱的滤镜 还有看不懂的滤镜
不像我的滤镜

所以 当你忙着上传你的
新耳环和牛仔外套
我在做什么,你不知道
所以 当你还在努力修图
你和一片草莓蛋糕
我在做什么,你不知道

你在逛街,你在分手
你在结婚,你在喝酒
你去日本,你看夕阳

你生小孩,你在发烧
你吃火锅,你中发票
你坐高铁,你有对象

你剪头发,你过生日
你在加班,你看电视
你在健身,你很健康

喵! (真的)

当你忙着上传你的
新耳环和牛仔外套
我在做什么,你不知道
所以 当你还在努力修图
你和一片草莓蛋糕
我在做什么,你不知道
你不知道
你不知道

Daytime, nighttime
The face inside the screen
Chatting, reminiscing
But can’t say why I would miss you

Summer day, winter night
Nothing we can do about being on opposite sides of the earth
Waiting, incoming call
But waiting won’t bring that anticipated spark

That day we agreed to, when can we meet again?
Cherry blossoms floating like snow, wishing for someone to see them with
Cherished past, do you recall them with nostalgia?
Look at text messages once more

Looking at the Instagram you just posted 10 seconds ago
As if I can see the familiar smiling face that hasn’t changed
Hate that I can’t move you, can’t let you capture every moment
The world makes me lonely
Superimpose time, you’re by my side
I miss you so bad

Watching your silhouette slowly walk away into the distance
Visualize a storyline in a parallel universe
To somewhat console myself
It's like cultivating oneself through meditation

Reach into the upper pocket with my left hand
Find a familiar lighter
It's not enough to ignite my passion
Fortunately, I wore my leather jacket
Did all I could to preserve my coolness

My old leather jacket goes with me to watch shows
My old leather jacket goes with me to weddings
My old leather jacket is there for me during winter
My old leather jacket
The one and only

James Dean is the archetype of leather jacket wearers
Dangle a cigarette from his mouth, charm a pile of flies
Ride a motorcyle
Break free from earth's gravity

If the Beatles switched to leather jackets, they'd turn into the Ramones
On a rainy day, cross the road, not afraid of getting soaked

Mötley Crüe, rivets on the leather jackets are
Bling bling bling bling
Bad bad bad bad bad to the bone

My old leather jacket goes with me on trips
My old leather jacket is there when I play games
My old leather jacket goes with me into dreamland
My old leather jacket
The one and only

My old leather jacket, my second skin
My old leather jacket, changes shape with me
My old leather jacket is my bulletproof vest
My old leather jacket
The one and only

Turned a corner, forded a river, climbed a mountain
Passed through sand, walked through snow, waited through four seasons
Woke up early, yearned for darkness, counted sunsets
Fell down, squinted eyes, brought a smile
To find you

My heart, a flower, a leaf
A world
There lives wind, lives rain, lives the sun and moon
There lives you

Walked a slow and long road
I finally met you
A little light, a little brightness, I open my eyes
It was inside a dream

Turned a corner, forded a river, climbed a mountain
Passed through sand, walked through snow, waited through four seasons
Woke up early, yearned for darkness, counted sunsets
Fell down, squinted eyes, brought a smile
To find you

My heart, a flower, a leaf
A world
There lives wind, lives rain, lives the sun and moon
There lives you

Walked a slow and long road
I finally met you
A little light, a little brightness, I open my eyes
It was inside a dream

A little light, a little brightness, I open my eyes
It was inside a dream

I want to find a hiding place
No cigarette smoke, no conflict
No soap opera dialogues

I want to find a hiding place
No guitar, no dependence
No waiting for a date

Leave the city I know
Forget my own name
Tell a story that has no ending
You don’t want to listen, I’ll just disappear

Leave the table I know
Pull out the batteries on my body
Remove the moles from my face
Disappear on the horizon

Leave the city I know
Forget my own name
Tell a story that has no ending
You don’t want to listen, I’ll just disappear

Leave the table I know
Pull out the batteries on my body
Remove the moles from my face
Disappear on the horizon

I want to find a hiding place
No telephone, no disaster
Not so many television stations

I want to find a hiding place
Flush the toilet and watch the water flow
I hide in the bathroom and don’t want to come out

Don’t want to come out
Don’t want to come out

I want to find a hiding place
No guitar, no dependence
No waiting for a date

Sunrise then sunset, deeper and further
A small square table, one meat dish and one vegetable dish
A figure calmly going about her work
A pair of hands add warmth to this time

An too-young person, he’s never satisfied
Stubbornly unwilling to stop his march to a faraway place
Watching the sky so high, walking the road so long
Forget to look back to see whether she’s crying

Moon is bright, wind is light
But you’re knocking on my window frame
You’ve listened to this point, you don’t need to worry
Actually I’m doing well enough

Moon is bright, wind is light
Did you come into my dream again?
You must’ve been too careful when you were here
You know I’m a light sleeper

An too-young person, he’s never satisfied
Stubbornly unwilling to stop his march to a faraway place
Watching the sky so high, walking the road so long
Forget to look back to see whether she’s crying

Moon is bright, wind is light
But you’re knocking on my window frame
You’ve listened to this point, you don’t need to worry
Actually I’m doing well enough

Moon is bright, wind is light
Did you come into my dream again?
You must’ve been too careful when you were here
You know I’m a light sleeper
You must’ve been too careful when you were here
Afraid that I’ll think of you again

I cooked a bowl of soup for you
We savor it together
You say you most fear being scalded
I keep that in mind

Your eyes are always shining
Like the sun and also like a crescent moon
In that distant place
Leaves never turn yellow

Spin around, start to dance
Fall down, fly away
Breathe, exhale
What you say, I want to hear

Will you still love me?
Will you still wait for me?
Are you still looking at me?
Do you not care?
Do you need him?
Could I be him?
Let all my worries
Be answered in dreams

I wipe dry your tears
I leave a light on for you
You wipe away my fingerprints
You help me turn off the light
I'll still love you
I'll still wait for you
I've given all I can give
Things that should be forgotten, I don't want to forget

You change what you said
You switch a dream
You weave a web
And weave a lie

I don't need an answer
I don't need resolve
Whatever road I travel on
You'll always be on the other side

Imagine there’s a beach in this room
A little hermit crab is my companion
Chill out, stroll, shake out sand, speak with the waves
Today is relaxing and happy

Too many things I can't understand
The waves say let it be
Without me noticing, sun sets below the mountain, another day is past
Today was just so full

Take your worries and spit them all out, spit them all out, relax, relax
Spit them all out, tulu lai yi o
Spit them all out, spit them all out, relax, relax
Spit them all out, tulu lai yi o

Take your worries and spit them all out, spit them all out, relax, oh
Spit them all out, tulu lai yi o
Spit them all out, spit them all out, totally relax
Spit them all out, tulu lai yi o

Dim light of early morning, sleepiness slips out from my toes
Self discipline of morning runs, I want to do better

Put on earbuds, melody pours into my brain cells
Empty streets, stride by stride, confident and fine

Crowd gets bigger, traffic gets heavier, young students laugh and play
It's another brand new day

Sun kisses tree leaves, tree leaves kiss the sidewalk
People go forth to their posts

When it's dawn, sweat it out; while you're alive, work hard
When you exhale, cherish it; while you're alive, run forth

I will walk from the south to the north
I will also go from white to black
I want everyone to see me
But not know who I am

If you see that I’m a bit tired
Then please pour a bowl of water for me
If you have already fallen in love with me
Then please kiss my lips

I have this pair of feet, I have this pair of legs
I have this long and arduous journey
I want everything of everything
But I do not want hate and regret

If you want to love me then do not fear regret
There will come a day when I escape to a faraway place
I do not want to stay in a single place
And I do not want anyone to follow me

But not know who I am
I will also go from white to black
I will walk from the south to the north
I want everyone to see me

I only want to see that you are beautiful
But I do not want to know that you are suffering
I want to obtain all the water in the heavens
But not your tears

I do not want to believe that monsters are real
Nor be at odds with anyone
You should not want to know who I really am
Nor should you want to see through my pretense

Ahua is 28 this year
Her family urges her to settle down
Her suitor is called Afa
Has a house, car, and a real leather sofa

The first time Ahua meets Afa
No blushing face or quickened pulse, just awkwardness
Afa presents himself, this year he’s over 30
Steady job, time to have a family

Afterwards, the story develops further
Ahua wore a pure white wedding dress for him
That person isn’t her old flame Zhiming
Neither is it the unforgettable Azhong

Wish her well, wish her well
Even though the prince isn’t riding a white horse
It’s still worth having happiness
No matter whether it’s plain tea and simple food or glory and prosperity

Wish her well, new bride Ahua
Leave a young girl’s dream in the past
Love’s price is bundled into a wedding bouquet
Throw it out to a new her
Reside in a new home

Afa takes Ahua’s hand
Ring finger shines with that vow
An entire lifetime is no more than the twinkling of an eye
Tie the knot and be together

Afterwards, the story develops further
Three dishes and one soup, Ahua waits for Afa to come home
The two of them snuggle up on that sofa
Watch some movies and chat about gossip

Wish her well, wish her well
Even though the prince isn’t riding a white horse
It’s still worth having happiness
No matter whether it’s plain tea and simple food or glory and prosperity

Wish her well, new bride Ahua
Leave a young girl’s dream in the past
Love’s price is bundled into a wedding bouquet
Throw it out to a new her

Wish her well, wish her well
Even though the prince isn’t riding a white horse
It’s still worth having happiness
No matter whether it’s plain tea and simple food or glory and prosperity

Wish her well, new bride Ahua
Leave a young girl’s dream in the past
Love’s price is bundled into a wedding bouquet
Throw it out to a new her
Reside in a new home

Ahua is 68 this year
Recently she got into growing flowers
In the early morning, Afa buys breakfast and returns home
A flower of steam blooms from the hot soy milk

He’s a man with no past
He’s also a man with no future
So just what kind of person is he?
What kind of person is he?

Where did he discard his past?
How did he suddenly and completely lose his memories?
Was it when he made a gesture to bid farewell to his mother?
Or was it at daybreak, when a yellow balloon was dancing in the air?

One day he encounters a woman
The woman says she also happens to have no past
But she wants a future
She wants a future
She wants a future

So they go searching for a future
Bringing with them a foolish joyfulness and love
They search within each other’s lost dreams
They search within lonely kisses

Linger on that sorrowful street at sunset
Walk through a prairie beset by drifting snow
Walk all the way to the farthest lights in the city
The lights illuminated the ocean before them

At last, they realize
The future has always been made from the past
Neither of them has a past
Therefore they both jump into the sea

He’s a man with no past
He’s also a man with no future
So just what kind of person is he?
What kind of person is he?

Living to this old age
Still haven’t learned to integrate with society
Every interaction and gesture
Betrays my awkwardness

I don’t do group chat, don’t have WeChat
Nothing I want to say, don’t have Weibo (Chinese Twitter)
Question authenticity, don’t watch TV
People in the city are far from reality

Just live like this, really don’t want to know too much
Just go about like this, the more I say the more I worry
Just live like this, really don’t want to know too much
Just go about like this, the less I know the better I feel

Living to this old age
I still haven’t learned to integrate with society
Every interaction and gesture
Betrays my awkwardness

I don’t do group chat, don’t have WeChat
Nothing I want to say, don’t have Weibo (Chinese Twitter)
Question authenticity, so don’t watch TV
People in the city are far from reality

Just live like this, really don’t want to know too much
Just go about like this, the less I know, the better I feel

The wind blows
Creating ripples
The wind blows
My tears

Leaves swaying
Making a shasha sound
Wave, wave my hand
A tired silhouette

A simple song
At the foot of green mountains
A small village
For healing my wounds

The road is long
Starting and stopping
Which part of the landscape
Can be engraved in memory

People with mutual understanding
Wounded heart
How much separation anxiety
Floats away with the kitchen smoke

A simple song
At the foot of green mountains
A small village
For healing my wounds

A simple song
Sung for whom?
West mountain in mist
Hazy moonlight

A simple song
At the foot of green mountains
A small village
For healing my wounds

The money was printed by you
The rules were set by you
Power is what you wield
The bill is ours to pay

Wars are your playground
Equality is what you expound
Freedom is what you enjoy
Suffering is for other people

In this world where the strong prey on the weak
Everyone needs to be more vigilant
Of course you can also pay it no mind
Blissfully live out your happy and blessed existence

But there are too many people in this world
Too many people in this world
Too many smart people
Not many who have wisdom

The solitary earth
Who knows why it exists
The solitary earth
Revolving will never ever produce an answer

Banks are opened by you
Corruptly amass wealth is what you do
Resources are what you want
Pollution is what we get

Politics is to fool people
The fist is what’s real
Profit belongs to you
The price is paid by others

Too many people in this world
Too many people in this world
Too many crazy people
We want too much

Too many people in this world
Too many people in this world
Too many stupid people
Too many blind people

Too many people in this world
Too many people in this world
Too many people in this world
Too many people in this world

Too many starving people
Too much guilt
Too many things we can't give up
We eat too much

Too many people in this world
Too many people in this world
Too many people in this world

Didn’t eat dinner and don’t have time to sleep
Working on the weekend without overtime pay
Even though I graduated from a top college, salary is only 22K

I know that going out into society means learning patience
But my company really is strange
I think I ought to find my boss to sit down and have a talk

Why is there no vacation, no social security?
I’m just a company dog, no one cares if I live or die

I want to change jobs, but my boss tells me
Young people shouldn’t bicker over salary, there’s still a lot you should learn
I want to change jobs, I don’t belong here
Family and friends all say, go overseas now while you’re still young

Consult your conscience, can’t you help me get a raise?
Cause I keep work work work working
Why isn’t there a year-end bonus?

But boss says to me, you still haven’t done your report
Look what time it is, before leaving work, I want to see it appear on my desk
You have to pay your dues, only with this attitude can you succeed

Adiao
Lives somewhere in Tibet
Like the condor
Dwells on top of the mountain

Adiao
In front of Jokhang Temple
Sunlight everywhere
Make a kettle of sweet tea
We’re chatting about the past

Adiao
You always dress yourself like a boy
But you're even more tenacious than the Galsang flower

Adiao
Two-faced people
Have countless smiles
When you go down the mountain
Remember to wear your Dolma blade

Underneath the brim of a gray hat
Sunken cheeks
You rarely speak
Simple replies
Where will you be tomorrow?
Who will care about you
Even if you fall on the road?

Acceptance, exile
Confusion, freedom
Just like the wind
Blow over the rough and
Uneven road
Slow, whirling footsteps
Slow, mottled footprints
Or perhaps not even a tiny mark
Is left here
But I still can’t
Give up hope because of pain
The wounds you received turn into scars
Bloom into incomparably beautiful flowers

Adiao
Can you eat a full meal tomorrow?
You’re already used to it
Loneliness is a kind of faith

Adiao
Reality won’t wear down your edges
You’re not a person of this world
You don’t need to care about hard facts

Your fate is trouble and misfortune
Obsession, indifference
Say goodbye to youth
Countless train stations
Content with being ordinary
But you won’t be crushed by an ordinary existence
You are Adiao
You are the bird of freedom

Your fate is trouble and misfortune
Obsession, indifference
Say goodbye to youth
Countless train stations
Content with being ordinary
But you won’t be crushed by an ordinary existence
You are Adiao

Adiao
Love is the seed of sorrow
You are a tree
You will never wither

I like lying on the sofa
Thinking of nothing
No way to finish everything I want to do
It's not too late to start tomorrow

Actually I’ve got my hands full
Have to focus on staring into space
Be present
Let the future stay in the future

Lalalalalalalala
My bad habit
Lalalalalalalala
I can always catch up
Take it in stride
I guess I’ll start tomorrow

I accept the plan
But I accept change even more
Accept my current thinking
Just listen to myself

I didn’t say I won’t do it
Still gotta do what should be done
But why are you in such a hurry?
Sit down and talk slowly

Lalalalalalalala
My bad habit
Lalalalalalalala
I can always catch up
Take it in stride
I guess I’ll start tomorrow

Lalalalalalalala
My bad habit
Be lazy for a day, catch up again
It’s bad that I can always catch up
Take it in stride
I guess I’ll start tomorrow

Well I wanna do a lot
Read 'n' learn 'n' listen to a lot more
(But I said I would do it but I didn't)
I dream a lot
Thinkin' talkin' hardly get my hands on

Know how to seize the day
Need to be good at using time
Change it, stop procrastinating

I guess I’ll start tomorrow

Hey, Mister Earth
It's Miss Moon
Did you notice that I happen to be by your side?

Sigh, we've known each other so many years
You always leave me to the dark night
Now I want to summon my courage and ask you out for a cup of coffee

Sigh, you say you don't have time
You're saving all your time for Mister Sun
OK, I'll see if someone else is willing
To accept my disappointment

Sigh, Mister Earth
I have a secret I'd like to share
Mister Sun, who you adore so much, is a big unfaithful radish

His love for Venus exceeds his love for you
Mercury is actually number one
Not like me, I just want to see you, want to devote myself solely to you

Sigh, should I let you go?
I know that loving you means letting you have the freedom
To pursue Mister Sun, the center of everyone's attention
Even though I only have you

My girlfriend, her standards are high, she wants a Roamer watch
I’m a poor bastard, how could I afford that, afford that
I went to steal wallets, I got caught, she’s on the side laughing
Fuck your laughter, I did it all for you, for you

My boyfriend, his standards are high, he wants big boobs and full ass
My small presence, how can I satisfy him, satisfy him
I went to get breast enlargement, the surgery failed, he’s on the side laughing
Fuck your laughter, I did it all for you, for you

Tonight I want to find a random place to sit
Meet with friends to drink and chat about nonsense
Forget how long it’s been since I was this carefree
Because after going home, there won’t be a furious wife

You ask me, where did my wife go?
Well, other’s people's wives maybe also go out to run errands
It’s not like her legs grow on me
How am I supposed to know what she went out to do?

Tonight my wife isn’t home
I can wahahaha
Tonight my wife isn’t home
My heart is wahahaha

Anyway she doesn’t like to play with me anymore
She only hangs with her besties, getting manicures and gossiping about celebrities
Opportunity comes
She’s not home, I’m bursting with joy
Freed from my restraints, I go crazy like a wild horse on the steppe

Tonight my wife isn’t home
I can wahahaha
Tonight my wife isn’t home
I should wahahaha

Tonight my wife isn’t home
I can wahahaha
Tonight my wife isn’t home
My heart is wahahaha

Maybe other guys hold the same opinion
In our wives’ eyes, we’ll never grow up
Maybe it’s just that she’s grown tired of my jokes
But she’s the only one in my heart, I’ll always sing love songs to her

Tonight my wife isn’t home
I can wahahaha
Tonight my wife isn’t home
My heart is wahahaha

Tonight my wife isn’t home
I can wahahaha
Tonight my wife isn’t home
My heart is wahahaha

If you were blind and I was deaf
Oh then we would be well suited
If you were fat and I had a pizza face
Oh then we would be well matched
Whether it's an inborn defect or an acquired mistake, maybe this is fate
You're not my sun-lit dew drop
I'm not the pearl in your hand

Because darling
You're far too perfect
I'm ashamed of my inferiority
I hate myself for not being that person

If you were a cripple and I was a short, unattractive guy
Oh then we would be well suited
If you were a fool and I was a lunatic
Oh then we would be well matched
Whether it's an inborn defect or an acquired mistake, it’s not clear
Not well matched in social nor economic status, don’t count on fancy shark fin soup and offal noodles being served at the same party

However darling
I’m not studly enough
Your strange taste in men
Always leaves me speechless

We’re not well suited
We’re not well matched
Your strange taste in men
Always makes me want to throw my arms up in despair

We’re not well suited
We’re not well matched
You're far too perfect
I’m not studly enough

We’re not well suited
We’re not well matched
Your strange taste in men
I’m speechless

We’re not well suited
We’re not well matched
Your strange taste in men
I want to throw my arms up in despair
