  1. 一半灰暗一半蔚蓝 飞得

    Half in gray, half in blue, the clouds rush by so fast

  2. 一个瞧著窗外

    One person gazes out the window

  3. 移动漂浮城市

    Moving through this floating city, the car drives into the wind

  4. 吞下寂寞 无害

    Swallowing loneliness, I guess it's harmless

  5. 一边登机一边 隔壁女孩

    As I board the plane, I listen to the girl next door

  6. 似曾相似未来

    Saying her future feels so familiar

  7. 原来一样 几次

    It turns out, everyone is the same, we must love a few times

  8. 甘心从前移开

    Before we can willingly push the past aside

  9. 离开 离开

    Wanting to leave, just leave

  10. 走到记忆之外

    Stepping beyond the memories

  11. 没有什么需要膜拜

    There's nothing that needs worshipping.

  12. 回来 回来

    If you want to come back, then come back.

  13. 旅行明白

    Only after traveling do I understand.

  14. 我把从前留在境外

    I've left the past behind in foreign lands.

  15. 应该一路失望 一路等待

    One shouldn't be disappointed all the way, waiting endlessly.

  16. 时间 世界还有不同

    Time says the world has different seas to explore.

  17. 不要告诉 现实

    But don't tell me the reality is so harsh.

  18. 我想看看自己能耐

    I want to see what I'm truly capable of.

  19. 离开 离开

    If you want to leave, then leave.

  20. 走到记忆之外

    Step beyond the boundaries of memory.

  21. 没有什么需要膜拜

    There's nothing here worth worshipping,

  22. 回来 回来

    If you want to come back, then come back.

  23. 旅行明白

    Only after traveling do I understand,

  24. 我把从前留在境外

    I've left the past behind, far away.

  25. 不看将来 也不现在

    I don't look to the future, nor question the present,

  26. 只要孤单滚开

    I just want loneliness to roll away.

  27. 赤道山脉 北极冰海

    In the equatorial mountain ranges, in the Arctic icy seas,

  28. 之后回来

    I'll return after I'm tired of playing,

  29. 离开 离开

    If you want to leave, then leave.

  30. 走到记忆之外

    Beyond the reach of memory.

  31. 没有什么需要膜拜

    There's nothing to revere,

  32. 回来 回来

    If you want to come back, just come back.

  33. 旅行明白

    Only after traveling do I understand,

  34. 我把从前留在境外

    I left the past abroad.

  35. 离开 离开

    If you want to leave, just leave.

  36. 跑到地图之外

    Run beyond the map,

  37. 降落之后一切空白

    After the landing, everything is blank.

  38. 回来 回来

    If you want to come back, just come back.

  39. 人生不是竞赛

    Life is not a race,

  40. 我把明天留在境外

    I left tomorrow abroad.

  41. 不看将来 也不现在

    I don't look to the future, nor question the now

  42. 只要孤单滚开

    I just want loneliness to roll away

  43. 赤道山脉 北极冰海

    In the equatorial mountains, in the Arctic's icy seas

  44. 之后回来

    When I've played enough, I'll come back

  45. 然后自由自在

    Then I will be free and at ease
