我在阴暗中降落 世界在雨中淹没
I descend into darkness, the world drowned in rain.
画面与现实交错 无法抽离卡在胸口
Images intertwine with reality, trapped in my chest.
躯壳如行尸走肉 陷阱漩涡我已受够
My shell like a walking corpse, tired of this trap and whirlpool.
挣脱逃离这个空洞 如果
Struggling to break free from this emptiness, if only.
我冲出黑幕笼罩的天空
I burst through the sky shrouded in darkness.
就别（想）在捆绑我的自由
Then don't (think) of binding my freedom.
在狂风之中 嘶吼 作困兽之斗
In the raging wind, I howl, like a beast in a struggle.
我奋力冲破 封闭的思绪震开裂缝
I fight to break through, thoughts locked tight, splitting apart.
燃烧的花朵 升空 消失在空中
Burning flowers rise, disappearing into the air.
记忆在剥落 残留的影像轮廓 溃散在薄雾中
Memories peeling away, lingering images dissolve in the mist.
我在阴暗中降落 世界在雨中淹没
I descend in the shadows, the world drowned in rain.
画面与现实交错 无法抽离卡在胸口
Images and reality intertwine, unable to break free, stuck in my chest.
躯壳如行尸走肉 陷阱漩涡我已受够
My shell like a living corpse, trapped in a whirlpool, I'm fed up.
挣脱逃离这个空洞 如果
Struggling to escape this void, if only
我冲出黑幕笼罩的天空
I break out of the sky shrouded in darkness.
就别（想）在捆绑我的自由
Then don't (think) about binding my freedom.
在狂风之中 嘶吼 作困兽之斗
In the howling wind, I roar, fighting like a trapped beast.
我奋力冲破 封闭的思绪震开裂缝
I strive to shatter the closed thoughts, cracking open a fissure.
燃烧的花朵 升空 消失在空中
Burning flowers ascend, disappearing into the air.
记忆在剥落 残留的影像轮廓 溃散在薄雾中
Memories peel away, remnants of shadowed images dissolve in the mist.
在狂风之中 嘶吼 作困兽之斗
In the raging winds, I roar like a beast in a fight.
我奋力冲破 封闭的思绪震开裂缝
I strive to break through, my closed thoughts crack open wide.
燃烧的花朵 升空 消失在空中
Burning flowers rise up, vanishing into the sky.
记忆在剥落 残留的影像轮廓 溃散在薄雾中
Memories peel away, the shadows left behind dissolve in the mist.
