  1. 挤身地铁 去到天国远足

    In the crowded subway, I can hike to paradise,

  2. 喧哗夜店 看出我想

    In the noisy nightclub, I can see my dreams unfold.

  3. 城内 幻想干燥

    But in the city, it’s so hot that fantasies dry up,

  4. 思念迷路

    And I wander lost, guided by my longing.

  5. 想得到美好 渴望

    Wishing for just a drop of beauty; this desire is vast,

  6. 看到

    Even if I close my eyes, I might still see.

  7. 沉迷一睡不醒白昼

    Enthralled by a never-ending daydream,

  8. 宁愿恋爱散失 至少内疚

    I’d rather lose love; at least I could feel guilt,

  9. 无论化身总算是华丽理由

    No matter if I transform or turn to dust, it's still a glorious reason,

  10. 怀念永久

    That I can cherish forever.

  11. 美丽 没有

    Beauty fades in the blink of an eye

  12. 到底得过享受

    In the end, one must savor the illusion of the mirror flowers

  13. 相信 相信荒谬

    I believe in mirages, I believe in the absurd

  14. 从来憧憬都不永久 没有

    What I've always yearned for is never permanent, but it’s still better than having nothing

  15. 掌心你的 都会 想去接触

    When your hand is in mine, I yearn to reach out and touch

  16. 呼吸 我的翠绿

    When the breath is warm, it can nurture my vibrant green

  17. 城内岁月 幻想干燥

    The years in the city grow old, and fantasies turn dry

  18. 思念迷路

    And I wander lost in memories of you

  19. 想得到美好 渴望

    Longing for just a drop of beauty, this desire is too intense

  20. 世界末日碰到

    The apocalypse has yet to arrive

  21. 沉迷一睡不醒白昼

    Lost in a daydream, never waking up,

  22. 宁愿恋爱散失 至少内疚

    I'd rather lose love than feel no guilt at all.

  23. 无论化身总算是华丽理由

    Whether transformed or reduced to ash, it's still a glamorous excuse,

  24. 怀念永久

    To cherish memories forever.

  25. 美丽 没有

    Beauty can vanish in the blink of an eye.

  26. 到底得过享受

    After all, we must experience the delight of reflected illusions.

  27. 相信 相信荒谬

    I believe in mirages, I believe in the absurd.

  28. 从来憧憬都不永久 没有

    What I've always yearned for is never permanent, yet it's better than nothing.

  29. 沉迷一睡不醒白昼

    Lost in a daydream, never waking up,

  30. 宁愿一切散失 至少内疚

    I'd rather everything fade away than feel no guilt at all.

  31. 无论叹息记忆总算华丽

    No matter if it's a sigh or a memory, it all floats in splendor.

  32. 沉睡永久

    Able to sleep until forever.

  33. 美丽 没有

    Beauty may disappear in the blink of an eye.

  34. 一千今后

    Transforming into a thousand mirrored flowers of the future.

  35. 相信 相信荒谬

    I believe in mirages, I believe in the absurd.

  36. 从来憧憬都不永久 没有

    What we always yearn for may not last, but it's still better than having nothing.
