[English]

Drifting in circles, wandering to now, racing inside the watch's face

Seems like I've seen the future I dreamed of

Today I should be happy and free, receiving applause, cheers, and love

Life has crossed several obstacles and detours

When did I learn not to speak, not to tell, that confusion in my heart

The feeling of being overwhelmed by emotion can't be expressed

Good fate appears less often, but I still seek a result; anxiousness leads me astray

Almost forgot the fruit I longed to grow

...

Singing the song of happiness

Have tears drowned?

Countless disappointed glances and moments of despair

The melody melts away the panic

Embracing the fleeting, fearless moment

Love can bring smiles and satisfaction even in pain

Emotion is never far away; maybe next second, it blossoms again

...

How many travelers have visited in a lifetime? How many have gone mad and missed?

The world keeps turning every second, no way to stop it

Laughter is so rare now, exhausted from climbing peaks in search of answers

Trading a lifetime of effort for just a second to feel love

Can you learn from the beginning? Can you? Let's start this trial class

Unblock the shackles in your heart, the road widens

More encounters come naturally; the bonds we form, the fruits of those bonds—chasing them only leads to mistakes

Desiring the fruit that you once needed, which you may have planted wrongly

Singing the song of happiness, have tears drowned? Countless disappointed gazes and moments of despair

The melody melts away the panic, embracing the fearless fleeting moments. Love brings smiles and satisfaction even in pain

Emotion is never far away; maybe next second, it blooms again

(From nothing to longing, until longing encompasses the entire universe)

In the end, all I want is to be saved—busy chasing after possessions

Forget that you and I both have nothing

Singing the song of happiness, have tears drowned? Countless disappointed glances and moments of despair

The melody melts away the panic, embracing the fearless fleeting moments. Love brings smiles and satisfaction even in pain

Emotion is never far away; maybe next second, it blossoms again

Imagine somewhere nearby, singing along with you

...

[Chinese]

兜兜轉轉漂泊到現在 分針短針錶圈中競賽

看似有著了夢見的將來

今天應該高興滿自在 得到掌聲歡呼與被愛

人生已跨越幾番波折障礙賽

何時學會不再講 不要講 心底裏那份迷茫

捆綁感動的感覺沒法講

良緣遇上不再多 卻想結果 焦急裡尋覓越來越錯

幾乎忘掉了最想栽種的果

唱著幸福之歌

眼淚有否沉沒

無數次失望 的眼神 與落魄

旋律融掉驚慌

擁抱頃刻無悔的畫面

愛是苦中亦能笑著滿足

感動總不遠 也許 下一秒盛放

一生中幾多過客探訪 幾多數不清瘋癲錯過

世界每秒轉動沒法勸阻

能捧腹開心歡笑已稀罕 疲奔於攀登高峰找答案

窮一世心力換取一秒領略愛

從頭學過可以麼 你可以麼 開始這試煉堂課

解開心頭的枷鎖 路更廣

隨緣遇到總更多 結 會結的果 焦急裡尋覓只會越錯

奢求曾令你錯種需要的果

唱著幸福之歌 眼淚有否沉沒 無數次失望 的眼神 與落魄

旋律融掉驚慌 擁抱頃刻無悔的畫面 愛是苦中亦能笑着滿足

感動總不遠 也許 下一秒盛放

(從無求 到渴求 直到渴求整個宇宙)

來到最後卻只想得救 忙著擁有

忘掉你我本都 一無所有

唱著幸福之歌 眼淚有否沉沒 無數次失望 的眼神 與落魄

旋律融掉驚慌 擁抱頃刻無悔的畫面 愛是苦中亦能笑着滿足

感動總不遠 也許 下一秒盛放

想像於不遠某位 能跟你和唱
