My skin's a broken clock (肌肤是座停摆的旧钟)
Mirror says 25, my ghost says stop (镜中二十五岁 灵魂却喊着停)
I got baby teeth in a grown man's jaw (成年的嘴巴里 还卡着婴儿的乳牙)
Every birthday's a funeral I can't ignore (每个生日 都是一场无法回避的葬礼)
They want me to act my age – what age? (他们要我成熟 可成熟是哪一种?)
The one that pays rent or the one in a cage? (是扛起生活的人 还是困在牢笼的蛹?)
My inner child is a missing page (内心的孩童 是个遗失的篇章)
I'm a vintage soul on a modern stage (十年前的灵魂 站在十年后的台上)
City grows glass and steel (城市疯长着玻璃与钢铁)
My lungs still breathe burnt orange peel (我肺里仍吸着焦橙皮的苦涩)
Every face is a digital deal (真实面孔 都在慢慢数字化)
I miss the static, I miss what's real (我怀念杂音 怀念真实的气息)
My mental age is a rusted bike (内心是辆生锈的单车)
My real age is a spiked mic (现实是支带刺的麦克风)
They don't fit – same wrong size (两者格格不入 尺寸始终不对)
I'm a time thief with alibis (偷走自己的时间只能找借口安慰)
Time's a liar (时间是个骗子)
But my bones believe the fire (可骨子里仍信着那簇火)
I'm twelve… I'm ninety… (我未曾年轻,也没有年老)
I'm nowhere… (我无处归属)
I run faster than seconds but I'm still late (我以为跑得过时间但只是徒劳)
For a childhood I never got to hate (追赶那段我没反应过来厌恶的年少)
My wristwatch is a fake – my pulse is a real quake (手表是假的 脉搏才是真实的震颤)
Every tick is a mistake (每一声震颤 都是一场遗憾)
Let the 808s crack my spine (就让 808 Drums点震裂我的脊椎)
Let the strings stitch my borrowed time (就让Strings缝补我借来的年岁)
I'm neither old nor young – I'm a broken rhyme (我不苍老也不年轻 只是一段破碎的韵脚)
Paradox in my mind like a nursery rhyme (心底的悖论像童谣在缠绕)
My clock stopped at seven… (我的时钟 停在了七岁那年)
But the world keeps asking… (可世界仍在不停追问)
“Are you a man or a child again?”(你是长大了还是越活越小了)
