每一辆火车 前进必须沿著轨道
Every train must move along the tracks
跟随著记号 往平淡或热闹
Following the signs towards the plain or the bustle
没一辆火车 是累了就随时能停靠
No train can stop just because it feels tired
我迈向目标 却又想要逃
I stride towards my goal, yet I want to escape
我从来不害怕 天崩或者地塌
I've never feared the sky falling or the earth crumbling
Oh 我其实活得很潇洒 我每天都重新出发
Oh, I actually live quite freely, I set out anew each day
可是我不快乐 真的不快乐
But I'm not happy, truly not happy
每天走到同样的分岔 可是我并没有选择
Each day I reach the same crossroads, yet I have no choice
这是一条 单行的轨道
This is a one-way track
我已经退不了后路 褪不掉最目无表情的微笑
I've already burnt my bridges, can't shed this expressionless smile
走在一条 单行的轨道
Walking on a one-way track,
让铁路决定了命运 决定我每一步都脱离不了
Letting the railway decide my fate, each step I take feels inescapable.
单行的轨道
One-way track,
单行的轨道
One-way track.
头顶有蓝天 身边有微风轻轻拥抱
Above my head is the blue sky, by my side, a gentle breeze embraces.
为什么烦恼 海洋碰不著
Why worry, when the ocean is out of reach?
每一辆火车 穿山越岭该值得骄傲
Every train, crossing mountains and valleys, is something to be proud of.
但谁听得到 我的哀号
But who can hear my sorrowful cry?
我从来不害怕 天崩或者地塌
I've never feared the sky falling or the earth collapsing.
Oh 我其实活得很潇洒 我每天都重新出发
Oh, I actually live quite freely, I start anew every day.
可是我不快乐 真的不快乐
But I'm not happy, truly not happy
每天走到同样的分岔 可是我并没有选择
Every day I reach the same fork, yet I have no choice
这是一条 单行的轨道
This is a one-way track
我已经退不了后路 褪不掉最目无表情的微笑
I've already retreated, with no way back, can't shed this expressionless smile
走在一条 单行的轨道
Walking on a one-way track
让铁路决定了命运 决定我每一步都脱离不了
Letting the railway decide my fate, each step I take can't escape
单行的轨道 单行的轨道
One-way track, one-way track
单行的轨道 单行的轨道
One-way track, one-way track
脱离不了 单行的轨道
Can't break free from the one-way track
脱离不了 单行的轨道
Can't break free from the one-way track
