油漆桶来回晃

The bucket of paint sways back and forth

我是个粉刷匠

I am a painter

肮脏的绚丽的

Dirty or pretty

都漆成白色的墙

All painted as a white wall

别人看多正常

How normal it seems in the eyes of others

好像不曾绝望

As if despair were never here

白油漆傻笑着

The white paint smiles dumbly

从前事全都隐藏

Hiding everything from the past

偶尔回头望

Sometimes I look back

白的墙空空荡荡

The white wall is empty

不再回头望

Only by not looking back anymore

漫长路才敢独自前往

Dare I head towards the long journey alone

十七岁的考场

The exam hall when I was seventeen

点不着的希望

The hope that couldn’t be lightened

二十岁的异乡

The foreign land when I was twenty

孤零零守到天光

I waited until sunrise alone

我就是我故乡

I am my home

我就是我远方

I am my future

雪一样白的墙

A wall as white as snow

走近看爬满苍凉

Take a closer look, it's crawling with desolation

偶尔回头望

Sometimes, I look back

旧时光长满悲伤

The old times are filled with sorrow

不敢回头望

Don’t dare to look back

漫长路如何独自前往

How to head towards the long journey alone?

偶尔回头望

Sometimes, I look back

旧时光长满悲伤

The old times are filled with sorrow

不敢回头望

Don’t dare to look back

漫长路如何独自前往

How to head towards the long journey alone?
