世界寂静 心依难定
shì jiè jì jìng xīn yī nán dìng The world is silent, still my heart’s hard to calm
独自对白 如何打开
dú zì duì bái rú hé dǎ kāi I tell myself to open up
让梦进来 趁现在
ràng mèng jìn lái chèn xiàn zài A chance now to let dreams in
[ Boy you see ]
[ Boy do you see me? ]
窗外的所有风景都变成和你点滴的画面
chuāng wài de suǒ yǒu fēng jǐng dōu biàn chéng hé nǐ diǎn dī de huà miàn All you see outside your window transforms, a vision induced by the drip in your arm
广播里的收音 仿佛你在耳边
guǎng bō lǐ de shōu yīn fǎng fó nǐ zài ěr biān Music reaches you as if it’s played right at your ear
爱情是暴力的甜蜜又是巨大粘稠的催眠
ài qíng shì bào lì de tián mì yòu shì jù dà nián chóu de cuī mián Love is a violently sweet, gigantic, gloopy hypnosis
无尽黑暗边界 新的起点
wú jìn hēi àn biān jiè xīn de qǐ diǎn An infinitely dark boundary, a new beginning
呜…
wū . . . woo…
始于句点 留在心间
shǐ yú jù diǎn liú zài xīn jiān Begin at the end, keep it at the bottom of your heart
不想思念 却无眠
bù xiǎng sī niàn què wú mián Don’t want this longing, but can’t sleep
[ Boy you see ]
[ Boy do you see me? ]
沉默不是因为想说的太多彼此无言
chén mò bù shì yīn wèi xiǎng shuō de tài duō bǐ cǐ wú yán Silence is not having a lot to say and saying nothing
而是距离不远却又舒服的瞬间
ér shì jù lí bù yuǎn què yòu shū fú de shùn jiān Rather its the instant when you’re close, yet comfortable
对抗遗忘的撕裂 超越 永恒的片段和时间
duì kàng yí wàng de sī liè chāo yuè yǒng héng de piàn duàn hé shí jiān Overcome, resist time and the forgetful tear of fragments passing into eternity
繁华是梦 一切皆空皆幻灭
fán huá shì mèng yī qiē jiē kōng jiē huàn miè Opulence is a dream, everything is hollow and full of disillusion
呜…
wū . . . woo…
曾经多么迷人的青春王国

年轻的世界岁月夜如长河
nián qīng de shì jiè suì yuè yè rú cháng hé The endless flow of the years of youth’s moonlit nights
执着于每刻我孤单地走过
zhí zhuó yú měi kè wǒ gū dān de zǒu guò Clinging to every second I walked alone
记录着爱与时间里的你我
