Lyrics & Translation

[Chinese]

[English]

我一個人喝酒 一個人踱步

I drink alone, pacing by myself

一個人面對這世界的殘酷

Facing the cruelty of this world alone

我把手插在兜裡 握緊拳頭

Hands in my pockets, clenched fists

揮向那無情的夜空

Swinging towards the ruthless night sky

無數過往的歲月

Countless past years

有溫暖的跋涉 也有冰冷的苟且

Brought warmth in travel, also cold suffering

在回憶的滾燙中 歸去來兮

In the boiling memories, I return home

現實狠狠擊打著我的胸口

Reality hits me hard in the chest

我想說眼前的我到底是誰

I want to ask, who am I really in front of me

面目全非了 沒了最初的樣子了

My face has changed, I no longer look like my original self

無數過往的歲月

Countless past years

有溫暖的溶解 也有冰冷的苟且

Brought warmth that melts, also cold hardship

在回憶的滾燙中 歸去來兮

In the boiling memories, I return home

現實狠狠擊打著我的傷口

Reality mercilessly hits my wounds

我想問眼前的人到底是誰

I want to ask, who exactly are you in front of me

面目全非了 沒了最初的樣子

My face has changed, I no longer look like my original self

儘管看起來 我很富有

Though it seems I’m quite wealthy

於是我 一個人喝酒 一個人唱歌

So I drink alone, sing alone

一個人面對這無聊的生活

Face this boring life all by myself

一個人買來面具 假裝著強悍

Buy a mask to pretend I’m strong

笑著跳進人海裡

Laughing as I jump into the crowd

於是我 一個人喝酒 一個人唱歌

So I drink alone, sing alone

一個人面對這無聊的生活

Face this boring life all by myself

一個人買來面具 假裝著強悍

Buy a mask to pretend I’m tough

笑著跳進人海裡

Laughing as I jump into the crowd
