When we were young Our hearts’ firm and sound

You say life sucks, you wanna kill yourself 
I say go, pick a place and fix a date 
You will kill yourself in memory, and maybe on Friday
   
 Your passion disappeared, in a sophisticated way
 Your dream is fading away
 You said that's okay, you said that you'll be saved
   
I guess you have a lot of things to hate
 I guess you have a lot of things to wait
 You will kill yourself in memory, and maybe on Friday
    
Your passion disappeared, in a sophisticated way
 Your dream is fading away
 You said that's okay, you said that you'll be saved

Raise kids or try your best to be rich 
 Get a wife or servants serve you right Have a soul mate is cool, or let the religions save you  
Surrender yourself in arts or getting old with dreams coming true  Old days never grow
 They just pass away with soul. 
 Tell me how to grow old gracefully

Youngsters, be educated to act your age Who cares your color? Teenagers, they never taught you how to love Back to your homework Deep in hell can’t kiss your girl Maybe love will tell you how to rebel Mom and dad they won’t be glad Though can’t be yourself is pretty sad What are you living for? Dreams and girls and bucks or a better world What if they won’t let go Just keep dancing with you spinning toe Youngsters, be educated to act your age Who cares your color? Teenagers they never allowed you to know the world The God damn firewall Deep in hell can’t kiss your girl Maybe love will tell you how to rebel Mom and dad they won’t be glad Though can’t be yourself is pretty sad What are you living for? Dreams and girls and bucks or a better world What if they won’t let go Just keep dancing with your spinning toe

There was a starless night 
 You crumbled from inside 
 When they were singing  The lyrics flew like leaves 
    Trying to sleep the nightmares off  
Such a dirty ugly place where hope sank  
Trying to sleep the nightmares off  
On a sunny free June day we’ll meet again 
    
There was a deathly square 
 Buried all the grief and fear 
 When you were singing 
 The lyrics flew like leaves 
   
 Trying to sleep the nightmares off 
 Such a dirty ugly place where hopes sank  
Trying to sleep the nightmares off 
 On a sunny free June day we’ll meet again 

6.
In such a gorgeous summer 
 Under such a perfect weather 
 You wanna cry ,you wanna die 
    
Flying kites in the sky 
 Boys were surfing, that's right  You were so shy, you took a sigh Oh, Chasing everything. 
 Chasing everything.  In such a gorgeous summer 
 Under such a perfect weather 
 You wanna cry ,you wanna die  Boys and girls were in the sunshine Smiling faces squeezed their eyes
 They won’t be mine, they won’t be mine
    
Oh, chasing everything. 
 Chasing everything. 
   
 Oh, chasing, my friends 
 Chasing, I can pretend.

I’ll be afraid of this place It won’t be recognized, will never The welkin dress in gloomy grey The beauty is so far away Wow I’m living here I was born here, nowhere to go Wow I love this place I hate this place, so complicated Wow this place is so cold Nowhere to show, follow the flow.
8.
With a pen in your hand It’s good for fooling men With a gun in your handIt’s your best friend Change the life we live Strip the rights we need Change the way we speak And the taste we keep Ruin the spirit of thoughts Our mind was lock Change the gesture of love Almost the gesture of fuck
9.
可要再追尋 冥頑的 可要去將就 平凡的 若有天回憶不夠用了 才想起要再開創些什麽 難道要等青春洩漏出了疲累 才想起他快要逝去
