Lyrics & Translation
Under the sunset, how lonely, I have no right to see you
I knew long ago the high mountains and low valleys would separate us, devoid of human touch
Your aristocratic games, my street corner adventures
So naive to believe in sincerity, so childish
You happily live your life, I desperately try to survive
How many people at the mountain's peak look down on my exhaustion?
Yearning to be fulfilled, trying hard, who's afraid of being out of breath?
But that finish line hangs on the horizon
You define life, I degrade survival
Only suitable to stay in the valley, sorting out my mess
Longing for a happy ending, the road underfoot is hard to shorten
No end in sight, no grace seen, you and I are extremely far apart
The more I look, the more hopeless, there's no me in the future
At the bottom of the cliff, is this the end? Paradise never existed
As if when darkness falls and day breaks, a goodbye is said, only to see people falling
Joy continues to spread, but you don't even comfort me
The distinction is too clear, too harsh
You happily live your life, I desperately try to survive
How many people at the mountain's peak look down on my exhaustion?
Yearning to be fulfilled, trying hard, who's afraid of being out of breath?
But that finish line hangs on the horizon
You define life, I degrade survival
Only suitable to stay in the valley, sorting out my mess
Longing for a happy ending, the road underfoot is hard to shorten
No end in sight, no grace seen, you and I are extremely far apart
But I still have to survive
Secretly living in the valley, waiting for the day my soul departs
You continue to circle, I continue to bury my love
No end, never an end, that's eternally far
