Chorus:

Shut off the door, but

Keeping the light in

I know you want more, so

Sit by my side

It’s like a halftime pause

Of our messy life

You said, “I wanna stop,”

So we sit overnight

I know, I’m an escort

To you, to me I lied

Therefore I tried

But I’m not the one for you anymore

Verse 1:

Slightly narrow our eyes

We are two streetlights

Having same destination

Standing side by side

Imagine going somewhere

Sunset boulevard drive

I pour out all my feelings

You’re steering like a guide

Verse 2:

But ultimately nothing

Is gonna happen

We stay still in this room

Close eyes and deep sigh

Then I open the door

Not saying goodbye

Counting down one, two, three

I’m out of your sight

Bridge:

I know you

You know me

We are two fellow travelers

In this severe snowstorm

Chorus:

Shut off the door, but

Keeping the light in

I know you want more, so

Sit by my side

It’s like a halftime pause

Of our messy life

You said, “I wanna stop,”

So we sit overnight

I know, I’m an escort

To you, to me I lied

Therefore I tried

But I’m not the one for you

So I

Outro:

Just jump over that chasm.

Verse 1:

I always have a hope

Of going back home

But people around me seem

To have the same route

My daddy paved my road

Writer of puppet show

I wonder if I could

Still play my own leading role

Verse 2:

I know house always wins

No matter what you chose

Slip into crowded people

Get my whole body soaked

I doubt if I’m still the unique one

Like I used to think

I asked the people

And they told me that I still am

Pre-chorus:

That I still am

Yeah I still am

But

Chorus:

Why I have to care about it so much

Age, ability and co-comparison

Time will tear everything apart

Even you’ve made wrong decisions

Why I have been stuck in it so deep

Push myself to be who they want me to be

Throw away my dignity

And let the light in

Find my pacing

Verse 3:

Leaving is difficult

So is for farewells

They say don’t sell your soul

Life is a struggle though

My mommy sent me to

Cross class and see the world

I know their expectation

But I’m sorry I lay low

Verse 4:

I’ve messed a lot of things up

Wish haven’t done so

Have turned my good friends down

To whom I haven’t spoken

I doubt if I’m still the nice person

Like I used to think

I asked my friends

And they told me that I still am

Pre-chorus:

That I still am

Yeah I still am

But

Chorus:

Why I have to care about it so much

Age, ability and co-comparison

Time will tear everything apart

Even you’ve made wrong decisions

Why I am stuck in it so deep

Push myself to be who they want me to be

Throw away my dignity

And let the light in

Find my pacing

Bridge:

I fly myself to sky

Why there is no Mr.Cloud by my side

No matter what I do never seems to be so right

I try to keep in light

In case I won’t forget how to live my life

Outro:

Now who am I

Now who am I?

Verse 1:

所以什么叫自由 呢

踏出门 长叹一声

阳光洒在小麦地 缝隙

风不闻不问

Verse 2:

是突如其来的寒冷

路人随机掉落眼神

公交车时间表精确到分

规整像人生

Pre-chorus:

也许 我们都在期待着什么

就像梦里那样呢

我得到了 得到了 得到了 得到想要的

Verse 3:

也许我们都还不懂

自由的定义是什么

以为就是自己抱自己

不需要别人

Pre-chorus:

但是 他们又在在乎着什么

我又在想什么

却被引领着

Chorus:

反正 就是种奇妙的平衡

自由却不脱离

心虚又不承认

Outro:

反正 就是种奇妙的平衡

自由不脱离

心虚不承认

Verse 1:

Seems to be a fairy tale

But he’s just living underground

Picking food from rubbish bin

His rebellion is more like an exile

After infinite morning rushing hours

He quitted and just disappeared

Juice secreted by him is the symbol he’s alive

Everywhere, metro stations and the clothes of passers-by

Someone wondered, someone cried

Telling workers how he’s like

Normal briefcase, invisible eyes

They don’t know why

They don’t know why

Verse 2:

Someone’s called the police

As well as the press

News been published on TV and broadcast

Several seasons passed

Thing’s been long suppressed

No one still remembers him but it’s still a mess

But the station-master still remembers him

And knows they won’t get rid of him

He’s shuttling back and forth in tunnels

It’s also him, who caused all the shadows

Once in the night, when the master’s on duty

The man showed up again with a sashimi

His appearance changed a lot

And people can call him the cuttleman

Bridge:

Again, the juice secreted,

Turned into black spray,

Closed over the platform

He saw two beams of light

Pierced through the dark night

And pointed at him

Outro:

It’s the gaze of cuttleman

Chorus:

她被推搡到他身旁

从此陷入无止境的忙

花儿失去本来的芳香

她本芬芳 她本芬芳

难道只有嫁人这种方向

或者在路上来回彷徨

和自己拥抱进入梦乡

她本芬芳 她本芬芳

Verse 1:

玉珍离开故乡 到安徽上山下乡

恰逢时局动荡 糟糕的睡眠质量

初中学历的她 俄语都没怎么上

就和建国谈婚论嫁

惠才有独立思想 见到吕心神荡漾

两人情投意合 她从此成为堂客

婚后生活不理想 她只能暗自神伤

为了孩子凑合到八十八

Chorus:

她被推搡到我身旁

（上海话：她被推搡到我身旁）

从此陷入无止境的忙

（上海话：我也很清楚，一个人的生活多清爽）

放弃职业道路所有希望

（上海话：该说不说，买什么东西都要省一省）

她本芬芳 她本芬芳

难道只有育儿这种方向

或者在路上来回彷徨

和自己拥抱进入梦乡

她本芬芳 她本芬芳

Verse 2:

莹莹

她把所有希望 寄托在孩子身上

已然回不到原来的模样

拘泥家庭少了包容心脏

但依然独立而坚强

没什么反正都有自己的选择

他们都还没失去自己的原色

我们也都希望他们过得快乐

不需要别人眼色

Bridge:

八月天气 万物生长

阳光灿烂 充满希望

烧烤摊和小巷

短裙手机录像

呐喊声的悲凉

旁观者的目光

这时路上有个姑娘

穿公主裙 拿棉花糖

钻石闪耀 对天空大叫

我本芬芳 我本芬芳

Outro:

我很伤心

很无力

因为如果我是站在暴力旁边的人

我也不会帮忙

因为我也害怕被牵连

被伤害

我也害怕任何的代入

害怕幻想

害怕思考

我也害怕发声

害怕一念间做出决定所带来的后果

害怕雨

害怕哭

害怕不安定感

害怕所谓的“勇敢”

害怕微弱的希望

一切恐惧和共情不会随风而逝

只会压在心里等待释放

这么说确实会显得轻飘飘

只是我厌倦了对立

厌倦了无休止的争吵与敌对

无论这个社会如何变迁

身边的人来来往往

我依然每一天都过得惴惴不安

有些事情真的很难懂

就像一阵狂风难琢磨

有些事情真的很难懂

就像突然下雨无处躲

就像我的心

有些事情真的很难懂

就像水结成冰 与夏虫说

有些事情真的很难懂

就像飞蛾扑火 燃烧自我

就像我的心

就像一阵风

吹散在他心头

就像一阵风

吹散在我心头

就像我的心

就像我的心

就像我的心

就像我的心

就像我的心

就像我的心

矛盾的心我不懂 我不懂

矛盾的心我不懂 我不懂

我该怎么融入这个圈子

我该怎么保持我的特质

我该怎么 在闭上眼的时候

就飞到外太空

矛盾的心我不懂 我不懂

矛盾的心我不懂 我不懂

我该怎么融入这个社会

我该怎么保持我的明媚

黑暗的世界 你在哪儿

我们的梦想又在哪？

我该怎么…

矛盾的心 我不懂 我不懂

矛盾的心 我不懂

我该怎么融入这个圈子

我该怎么保持我的特质

我该怎么在闭上眼的时候

就飞到外太空

矛盾的心 我不懂 我不懂

矛盾的心 我不懂

这几个晚上天天做噩梦

抢劫杀人 还有莫名其妙的失踪

非常真实 好像我在经历罪恶都市

在无数段情景中探寻人性的起始

是个启示吗？

还是因为我在现实中经历的歧视？

他们说你气势上不要输 要像骑士

我说我在这边凑双压

我的同学在那边研究期市

真的没办法

矛盾的心我不懂 我不懂 我不懂啊

我又想浑浑噩噩地躺平

但另一边 又战战兢兢地做未来的规划

我害怕 一步走错步步错 成笑话

亲戚朋友在背后 说闲话

这个小朋友 爸妈从小用钱培养大

最后混得还不是那么的差？

我的天哪 想想就可怕

因为我真的很在意别人的想法

我表面上看起来云淡风轻 

但其实呢 每天用耳朵偷听

每个人内心 对我的看法 还有声音

他们说你要有点信心 你不差的 你能行

是啊 我在沙漠里慢慢地前进

身边的人慢慢地不见踪影

我的热情慢慢地被耗尽

对自己我慢慢地不再相信

社会节奏很快 但我像个老赖

停滞在原地 寻求平静

矛盾的心我不懂 我不懂

我觉得自己没法融入

I Don’t Feel Like I Belong

矛盾的心我不懂 我不懂

我不觉得自己能融入

I Don’t Feel Like I Belong

矛盾的心我不懂

矛盾的心我不懂

I Don’t Feel Like I Belong

I Don’t Feel Like I Belong

I Don’t Feel Like I Belong

I Don’t Feel Like I Belong

I Don’t Feel Like I Belong

I Don’t Feel Like I Belong

I Don’t Feel Like I Belong

I Don’t Feel Like I Belong

I Don’t Feel Like I Belong

Verse 1:

噢！就像是一只小鹿在我心里乱撞

这夏天来了谁也抵抗不住这幻想

拿一只冰激凌和向日葵一起绽放

全身冰凉

Verse 2:

繁重学业把我们压的只想躺在床上

一手揣着冰镇西瓜再住进空调房

整日还天马行空地做无数个设想

一起逃亡

Chorus:

忘掉这是非，还有那错对

忘掉人情世故，享受当下生活

请你听不懂，请你看不懂

请你蒙蔽我，只感受自然鲜活

Verse 3:

就像是一只蝴蝶在我肚子里彷徨

我们假装不在意 但笑容不撒谎

在沙滩上被太阳照顾得躲避目光

掀起风浪

Verse 4:

夏日漱石的旋律就在我的耳边回荡

不用思考未来却有无尽的畅想

朝霞和夕阳一直都待在我的身旁

似若天堂

Bridge:

我们与人交往，然后听懂暗语

表面笑得风光，背地里在觊觎

话语化作谜题，关系像个谜语

逃脱这个社会，在夏日之旅

我们与人交往，然后听懂暗语

表面笑得风光，背地里在觊觎

话语化作谜题，关系像个谜语

逃脱这个社会，在夏日之旅

Chorus:

忘掉这是非，还有那错对

忘掉人情世故，享受当下生活

你听不懂，请你看不懂

请你蒙蔽我，只感受自然鲜活

Outro:

他们都会说

要掀起风波

要学会看人的眼光

可我不会撒谎

在夏日时光

请你看不懂

请你听不懂

Jumping down the cliff

Into sapphire ocean eyes

Take off all the clothes

Naked in broad daylight

Doing weird things

Like keeping my hair orange-dyed

These are stuff that I dislike

These are stuff that I dislike

Feeling weightlessness 

In an enormous amusement park

Have a close-up view

Of the insects moving fast

Other things like having fight

Drinking wine, Disco at night

These are stuff that I dislike

These are stuff that I dislike

Guess I should move on and live my life

Acting a leading role as a boring passer-by

那些逝去和离别 日夜困惑包裹着我

在我如释重负时候 潜入我

思绪急速萎缩 再放大涌入我

停止思索

如果死亡不是终点 那什么才是呢

我要铭记做什么

反正再也看不到了 听不到了

化成碎片嵌入我

一些脆弱的 易碎的时刻

隐蔽在被窝 我们的梦

就像过路人 一眼即过

却再逃不脱 

如果死亡不是终点 那什么才是呢

我要铭记做什么

反正再也看不到了 听不到了

化成碎片嵌入我

Guess I should lead my life

Acting a leading role as a passer-by

Is it possible for me, always hiding in my, wooden closet?

Almost be suffocated, can anyone help me, surviving all of this?

The fire is spreading, whilst I’m standing where I was, just waiting for the fire to burn me to ash

Like I am just planting myself, stunned, with no one around me, between the cars colliding

Colliding… Colliding…

Is it possible for me, always dodging in my, rental garret?

Nothing but music, help me pass through the interim and interpersonal mysteries

The flood is rushing towards, like I’m accursed and I draw the curtain like someone’s traitor

I look up at the sky, there is no clouds snow-white, and I’m the only one by my side, fighting

Fighting… Fighting…

Is it possible for me, always hiding in my, wooden closet?

我 看着那一张脸

惊慌又失措的脸

却不知那究竟是谁

站在镜子面前

他一直展望着未来

又在未来到来时离开

他究竟是谁

他是谁我不知道

我 不知道

看清那是谁

扭转局势啊

局势

他到底是谁

我看不清他的脸

他闭上了双眼

也许那就是我吧

总在迷茫的人群中寻找自己

但是却找不到

风在飞舞

我站在寒风中

找我自己

也许那就是我吧

每天面对着镜子打乱着头发

在意着外表

却从未把内心打理

也许那就是我吧

也许那就是我

他一直展望着未来

他一直展望着未来

又在未来到来时闭上眼睛离开

到底是谁

我不知道

我不知道

Foreshore是我在18到20岁这段时间所有所思所想所经历的合集。我从未如此直接地书写我的不安，矛盾，回忆与恐惧。但我相信他足够动人和真挚。也很感谢愿意完整收听这一张专辑的每一个你。下次见。

Foreshore is a collection of all my thoughts and experiences between the ages of 18 and 20. I have never written about my anxiety, contradictions, memories and fears so directly. But I believe this album is adequately touching and sincere. Thank you very much to everyone who is willing to listen to this album in sequence and in its entirety. And See you next time.

Intro:

Under the blue sky on the grass

Sit back to back

Toes lift a while

You said you’ve spared some time over me

It’s so surprising, let’s talk about

Verse 1:

So what you gonna do?

Giving me a smile and say let’s try fondue

Hope that it will be a loop

After hanging out

All stays still like we haven’t moved

Pre-chorus:

It worths a shot

Let’s make the date like indie pop

(Rhythm of stepping off)

Chorus:

I don’t wanna talk about you you you you

Everything changes like growing up woo woo

Let’s talk about no matter who rather than you

(I don’t wanna talk about you)

Verse 2:

So what you gonna do?

Telling me it’s been a long route we’ve been going through

Hope that it won’t be a loop

It took us so much to get this point

Hey, that’s the truth

Bridge:

Why the air seems to be frozen in time?

I think the brand new world gotta be mine.

Verse 3:

So what am I gonna do?

Dedicate myself to you darling I’m the moon

There won’t be any loop

So we just live in the present 

Face things we never choose

Pre-Chorus:

It worths a shot

Let’s make the date like indie pop

(I’m not attracted to you, so maybe let’s just be friends )

Chorus:

I don’t wanna talk about you

Everything changes like growing up

Let’s talk about no matter who rather than you

(I don’t wanna talk about you)

Outro:

So what you gonna do?

Leaving me alone on this road wandering and pondering

So what you gonna do?

And what am I supposed to do?

Chorus:

I drew the curtain on my face

我拉上我脸上的窗帘

Hope that it won’t fake

希望他永不褪色

and curtain myself in the lake

然后把自己隐藏在河中

All the commend and criticism

所有的赞扬与批评

All the things I have said about them

所有的我说的关于他们的事

Like a red eye on the plane

都像一场红眼航班

Earphones are my way

戴耳机是我抒发的方式

And music is the sake that I’m obsessed with the making from rainy to sunny days

而音乐是我着迷于天气从阴转晴的原因

The sun is covered with pain

太阳被痛苦掩盖了

I’m jaded

而我也疲惫不堪

But I won’t say in April or May

但在这四五月我也不会把这苦涩说出口

Cause the rainbow bump into my brain and all gets colored

因为彩虹装进心口，一切都被染上颜色

Never drain.

永不会干旱。

Verse 1:

The relationships are the same

人与人的关系也是一样

Always a curtain between the faces

面对面总有一层窗帘阻隔

And I am afraid

我也很害怕

That I become a freak

我会被当做一个异类

How to escape out of this pace 

怎么跳脱这样的步伐

Getting to the perfect places

前往完美之地？

Where the fuck are them?

完美之地在哪？

How will they stay?

How will they stay？

他们又会存在多久呢？

Verse 2:

Likewise, I’m now dancing on the ice

也一样，我现在也如履薄冰

Icing on the cake

火上浇油

Caking my inside

一切都扰乱我的内在

The curtain disappears

窗帘消失了

Forms a wall made of lies

由谎言组成的墙

All the words are unreal

所有的言语不真实

I wonder how they truly feel

我不知道他们究竟在想什么

What will they say?

What will they say?

他们又会说什么呢？

Bridge:

The same shit happens everyday

一样的糟心事也日夜发生

Wish I may be the outsider of this lonely page

希望我能成为这孤独一页小说的局外人

But

但

How long this way is

这条路多长啊

How hard this play is

这出戏多难啊

Chorus:

I drew the curtain on my face

我拉上我脸上的窗帘

Hope that it won’t fake

希望他永不褪色

and curtain myself in the lake

然后把自己隐藏在河中

All the commend and criticism

所有的赞扬与批评

All the things I have said about them

所有的我说的关于他们的事

Like a red eye on the plane

都像一场红眼航班

Earphones are my way

戴耳机是我抒发的方式

And music is the sake that I’m obsessed with the making

From rainy to sunny days

而音乐是我着迷于天气从阴转晴的原因

The sun is covered with pain

太阳被痛苦掩盖了

I’m jaded

我也疲惫不堪

But I won’t say in April or May

但在这四五月我也不会把这苦涩说出口

Cause the rainbow bump into my brain and all gets colored

因为彩虹装进心口，一切都被染上颜色

Never drain.

永不会干涸。
