[English]

No one is here

Just the two of us

Heading into the unknown

Everything unfamiliar

Makes my heart race

Because no one here

Can reach this place

Keep on running

Keep on driving, yeah

Hold on tight

Gripping strongly

Cross that wall, swrv

Let’s ride, Lala like, Piyong

On this endless highway

Beyond fear, something’s there

We’ll find it, for sure

It’s probably paradise

Light shines through the door crack

The key to a new world in my hand

To places yet unseen

Turn it on, turn it on, turn it on

Like a blazing flame

Burn, burn, burn it up

When you wake up

It’s time to push forward

Reborn now

I’m living a brand new life, woo

Born to be wild

Heart-rounding reality

Shaking fantasy

Born to be wild

Gravity beside you

Clear energy

Open the door, break free from all ties

Day and night without lines

On that clear-eyed day

Lower your voice, look up high

Now I’m on my way up

Even if I could turn back time

I’d choose the same path again

I could fall or I could fly

On this endless highway

Beyond fear, something’s there

We’ll find it, for sure

It’s probably paradise

Light shines through the door crack

The key to a new world in my hand

To places yet unseen

Turn it on, turn it on, turn it on

Like a blazing flame

Burn, burn, burn it up

When you wake up

It’s time to push forward

Reborn now

I’m living a brand new life, woo

Born to be wild

Heart-rounding reality

Shaking fantasy

Born to be wild

Gravity beside you

Clear energy

Break the wall

Get, get, get what you want

Break the door

Get, get, get what you want

Break the fear

Get, get, get what you want

It's the key to a new world

Break the wall

Get, get, get what you want

Break the door

Get, get, get what you want

Break the fear

Get, get, get what you want

It's the key to a new world

Nothing to fear anymore

We’re heading straight for the same future

We won’t stop

Clenching the master key

Now, the door opens, hoo

Born to be wild

Heart-rounding reality

Shaking fantasy

Born to be wild

Gravity beside you

Clear energy

Break the wall

Get, get, get what you want

Break the door

Get, get, get what you want

Break the fear

Get, get, get what you want

It's the key to a new world

Break the wall

Get, get, get what you want

Break the door

Get, get, get what you want

Break the fear

Get, get, get what you want

It's the key to a new world
