I feel like I’ve wandered into a strange country
Everyone speaks in the language of embellished lies
With no one to hold my hand
I’m struggling to find you
On the news of someone who has died
The kind people wept
At the sight of someone who crawled to live
They clucked their tongues
Where am I now?
You know…
I want to breathe with you
I want to swim through this world with you
Till we drift to some place faraway
Till we can laugh in a world we’ve never seen
If I could just hold hands only with you
If I could just endure the nights only with you
Even if there’s nothing to believe in
Even if we’re no more than two lonely things
I feel like I’ve been thrown out into the empty outer space
I got insensible to my surroundings
Like a baby whose umbilical cord has been cut
I’m biting at the loneliness I just learned
The tragedy that took place across the sea
People showed mercy to and sympathized with
And yet, they can hurt someone who speaks the same language
How can they laugh at that?
How can they say that they are “alive”?
No one can live alone
No one can bear the weight of grief alone
Shivering in the freezing building wind
Exhaling to warm my numb heart
If I could be a little kinder than I am now
If I were not afraid to connect with someone
Even if I’m tormented by invisible malices
Even if I’m not right
Across that moon river
Little by little we go, wandering
Because I want to see many worlds with you
I don’t need a signpost
With you next to me
And I’m right here
I want to breathe with you
I want to swim through this world with you
Till we drift to some place faraway
Till we can laugh in a world we’ve never seen
If I could just hold hands only with you
If I could just endure the nights only with you
Even if there’s nothing to believe in
Even if we’re no more than two lonely things
With you, I can live
