Can you hear me?
I'm running on empty, into the wild,
Fire beneath my feet, there's a home not far from reach,
Are we foolish,
For breaking it down when there's no one around?
Silence at its peak, the whole world's listening.

There’s a burning in my soul,
Like we’ve been here once before,
I can feel it in my bones.

When we rise,
I see the fire in your eyes,
Burning through me like the sun,
Got that devil by your side,
Come alive, you're no failure by design,
When you think you’ve jumped the gun,
Are you ready when we rise?

Inner motion, tearing me up in my own head,
It's gotten under my skin, tripping me up once again,
I'm not broken, I'm wearing you down piece by piece,
Playing with your faith—there’s a sudden twist of fate.

You want answers, you need advice,
What can I tell you? It caught me by surprise,
Your friends, they’re masters of disguise,
Buried secrets—a testament to time.

A moment gone so fast,
Feels like we're under attack,
This broken artifact is giving me new light.

It’s like we’re destined to come out of this unscathed,
And in the worst case, we’ll get out before we break,
'Cause I'm a skeptic, avoiding the risk,
And you’re the dreamer, always the optimist,
The ground is shifting under our feet,
But we keep moving, never miss a beat.

Hey—so what are you waiting for?
It’s the calm before the storm, and we’ve got nothing to lose,
There’s no turning back, you know we’ve come so far,
And now we’ve got nothing to lose.

She’s got the devil’s heart with those angel eyes,
With wicked thoughts that’ll take you by surprise,
She’ll play you till the end, then strike you down,
Always been the queen of catastrophes,
And you’ll just be another casualty,
That look of hers is sure to take you out.

When love is on your side.

It all plays out in the end,
When the weight is off your shoulders,
And we’ve been to hell and back to win,
The odds were low, unforgiving,
And fate was never an option, and you know this,
When you've been to hell and back to win!
Someone take me somewhere,
With lightning speed, it’s like we’ll disappear,
Like we were never here.

She’s a tempest, tearing through the night,
A touch so sweet, but she’ll bleed you dry,
She builds you up just to watch you fall,
Lips like velvet, words like knives,
And we all know the stakes are high,
But every now and then, we play the fool.

Chinese:

用力的心跳
腐烂的味道
无人的角落
那一团火不停燃烧
多少假象多少希望
多少夜归人走在这条路上
朦胧灯光透映着迷茫
谁对谁诉衷肠又对谁撒了谎
举起酒杯就能忘了昨天
也能忘了曾许下的诺言
川流不息年复一年
朝阳北路用回忆记录时间
所有经历都不算太坏
别让生命卑微像尘埃
所有经历都不算太坏
不需要谁明白
用力的心跳
腐烂的味道
无人的角落
那一团火不停燃烧
欲望的轨道
等待下一秒
已经离开的遗忘的
变成依靠
两点成一线磨平我的棱角
不管多晚我都不想睡觉
啤酒和自由对我很重要
我来到朝阳北路渴望一次心跳
白天黑夜不停的交替
这是一个叫做生存的游戏
阴谋设计欲望和心机
我到底是你兄弟还是你的武器
所有经历都不算太坏
别让生命卑微像尘埃
所有经历都不算太坏
不需要谁明白
用力的心跳
腐烂的味道
无人的角落
那一团火不停燃烧
欲望的轨道
等待下一秒
已经离开的遗忘的
变成依靠
我知道
有人来就会有人离开
我知道
笑容背后隐藏的无奈
你故意躲开我的视线
你故意躲开我的视线
你故意躲开我的视线
赶快滚出我的世界
用力的心跳
腐烂的味道
无人的角落
那一团火不停燃烧

English:

A pounding heartbeat
The scent of rot
An empty corner
That fire keeps burning on
So many illusions, so many hopes
So many late-night drifters walk this road alone
Dim streetlights casting blurry doubts
Who confides in whom, and who’s telling lies?
Raise a glass, forget yesterday
Forget the promises we used to make
Endless streams, year after year
Chaoyang North Road marks time with memories
All we’ve been through—it’s not that bad
Don’t let life shrink like dust
All we’ve been through—it’s not that bad
We don’t need anyone to understand
A pounding heartbeat
The scent of rot
An empty corner
That fire keeps burning on
The tracks of desire
Waiting for the next second
Those who left, those we forgot
Have become my crutch
Two points make a line, grinding down my edges
No matter how late, I can’t sleep
Beer and freedom—what I hold dear
I came to Chaoyang North Road craving one true heartbeat
Day and night endlessly rotate
This is a game called survival
Schemes, desires, deceit—
Am I your brother or your weapon?
All we’ve been through—it’s not that bad
Don’t let life shrink like dust
All we’ve been through—it’s not that bad
We don’t need anyone to understand
A pounding heartbeat
The scent of rot
An empty corner
That fire keeps burning on
The tracks of desire
Waiting for the next second
Those who left, those we forgot
Have become my crutch
I know—
When someone comes, someone else leaves
I know—
Behind every smile, a silent helplessness
You look away on purpose
You look away on purpose
You look away on purpose
Just get the hell out of my world
A pounding heartbeat
The scent of rot
An empty corner
That fire keeps burning on


Français:

Un battement de cœur qui cogne
L’odeur de la pourriture
Un coin vide
Ce feu continue de brûler
Tant d’illusions, tant d’espoirs
Tant d’âmes errantes de nuit marchent seules sur cette route
Des réverbères ternes projettent des doutes flous
Qui se confie à qui, et qui ment ?
Levons notre verre, oublions hier
Oublions les promesses qu’on faisait autrefois
Des flux sans fin, année après année
Chaoyang North Road marque le temps avec des souvenirs
Tout ce qu’on a traversé — ce n’est pas si terrible
Ne laisse pas la vie se réduire en poussière
Tout ce qu’on a traversé — ce n’est pas si terrible
On n’a pas besoin que quelqu’un comprenne
Un battement de cœur qui cogne
L’odeur de la pourriture
Un coin vide
Ce feu continue de brûler
Les traces du désir
Attendant la seconde suivante
Ceux qui sont partis, ceux qu’on a oubliés
Sont devenus ma béquille
Deux points font une ligne, usant mes contours
Peu importe l’heure, je n’arrive pas à dormir
Bière et liberté — ce à quoi je tiens
Je suis venu sur Chaoyang North Road en quête d’un vrai battement de cœur
Le jour et la nuit tournent sans fin
C’est un jeu appelé survie
Magouilles, désirs, tromperies —
Suis-je ton frère ou ton arme ?
Tout ce qu’on a traversé — ce n’est pas si terrible
Ne laisse pas la vie se réduire en poussière
Tout ce qu’on a traversé — ce n’est pas si terrible
On n’a pas besoin que quelqu’un comprenne
Un battement de cœur qui cogne
L’odeur de la pourriture
Un coin vide
Ce feu continue de brûler
Les traces du désir
Attendant la seconde suivante
Ceux qui sont partis, ceux qu’on a oubliés
Sont devenus ma béquille
Je sais —
Quand quelqu’un arrive, quelqu’un d’autre s’en va
Je sais —
Derrière chaque sourire, il y a une impuissance silencieuse
Tu détournes le regard exprès
Tu détournes le regard exprès
Tu détournes le regard exprès
Fous le camp de mon monde
Un battement de cœur qui cogne
L’odeur de la pourriture
Un coin vide
Ce feu continue de brûler

You’ve been waiting,
All year long,
Anticipating,
Gettin' your jingle bells on,
I got you baby,
Got what you want,
A holly jolly,
Good golly,
Merry marathon.

So let the fun commence,
Go and call up all your friends,
It’s about to get intense,
So let’s do this step by step,
Come on!

Put that Christmas record on,
Turn it up and sing along,
Pop that bubbly till it’s gone,
Tonight we gonna celebrate,
Show 'em how we holiday.

We’re getting festive,
Decking the halls,
Dressing impressive,
And singing FALALALA,
A celebration,
So raise your cup,
Here’s to good vibing and tidings,
To the ones we love.

Then when we sleep,
Sleigh bells ring,
Sugarplums dance in our dreams.

When we wake up in the morning,
Can hardly wait to see what’s there,
And without any warning,
We’ll be running down the stairs,
Watch out!

It’s about to get intense,
So let’s do this step by step.

Put that Christmas record on,
Turn it up and sing along,
Pop that bubbly till it’s gone,
Tonight we gonna celebrate,
Show 'em how we holiday.

Cause I don’t wanna lose you
I should never let you down
Let you down
Cause I don’t wanna lose you
Want you to be safe and sound
Safe and sound

Hey,
Get through the day,
If that's what it takes,
To fill the space between your ears,
Just holding place,
Not losing face in all this fear,
Familiar taste,
Sharp and bitter,
All too clear.

Taking a backseat,
One with the concrete,
Bittersweet heartbeat,
You take it for granted,
Can't eat, don't sleep,
Wasting on the scrap heap,
Bittersweet heartbeat,
You take it for granted.

No,
I'm not alone,
Made this a home,
Dragged with the undertow,
Rest in the deep below,
Take what you're owed,
Make no mistakes,
In the weakness you show.

Taking a backseat,
One with the concrete,
Bittersweet heartbeat,
You take it for granted,
Can't eat, don't sleep,
Wasting on the scrap heap,
Bittersweet heartbeat,
You take it for granted.

Never been so low,
Never been so low,
Never been so low.

Taking a backseat,
One with the concrete,
Bittersweet heartbeat,
You take it for granted,
Can't eat, don't sleep,
Wasting on the scrap heap,
Bittersweet heartbeat,
You take it for granted.
