Renowned producer Ian Chen formed his own band and recruited the other two members to form F.I.R. They are well known throughout Asia with their hit "Lydia," which was the theme song for the Taiwanese TV drama "The Outsiders (鬥魚)." The drama was aired in Taiwan without revealing the singer of the theme song. Having a beautiful voice that asked for attention, the song attracted many fans, leading to F.I.R.'s big success when they finally debuted in 2004.

The name F.I.R. comes from the initials of the names of the three members: Faye, Ian, and Real. Yet it is also an acronym for "Fairyland in Reality."

Some may not know, but Faye and Jolin Tsai (蔡依林) were classmates in college where they studied English together.

I Can't Go On
F.I.R. Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

空氣裡迴盪一陣又一陣　狂歡氣候
都是陌生臉孔
每個角落　都隱藏著壞念頭
OH HOO．．．leave me alone
沉默不語的我思緒氾濫　想逃走　無力掙脫

# 逃離現場　分隔島兩旁　人來人往
　盡是陌生臉龐

　綠燈轉亮　我的腳步在反方向
　OH HOO．．．leave me alone
　這世界瘋狂　how can I go on

　Yea eh~~
　Ohh．．．　沒有盡頭　黑色城市的沙漠
　Ohh．．．　沒有出口　藍色憂鬱圍繞我
　Ohh．．．　你的笑容　掩飾不了的冷漠
　Ohh．．．　你的瞳孔　不再有任何感動
　So I just can’t go on

REPEAT #

I just can't go on

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of F.I.R.'s song I Can't Go On paint a picture of someone feeling isolated and overwhelmed at a party or in a large social gathering. The air is thick with a frenzied atmosphere and unfamiliar faces are everywhere. In every corner, there are hidden intentions and negativity that the singer tries to escape from. They feel powerless and unable to escape from their own thoughts and emotions.

In the chorus, the singer describes a world that seems to have no end - a desert in a black city with no exit and blue depression surrounding them. They are suffocating and struggling to find a way out of this madness. The last two lines repeat the title of the song, as if to emphasize the singer's desperation and hopelessness.

Overall, the lyrics of I Can't Go On suggest that the singer feels trapped in their own mind and unable to cope with the overwhelming emotions they are experiencing. They desperately want to escape from this chaos, but they don't know how.
