生存以上 生活以下
五月天 Lyrics

連刷牙 也照著節奏 沖了馬桶 洗了臉上的疲倦泡沫
Even brushing my teeth follows a rhythm, flushing the toilet and washing off the tired foam on my face.

沒有夢 昨夜沒有夢 鏡子裡的 陌生人已經不再做夢
No more dreams, even last night, the stranger in the mirror is no longer dreaming.

上課鐘 變成打卡鐘 單行道般 的人生流失在車陣中
The class bell turned into a punch clock, the monotonous life slipping away in the traffic congestion.

進行曲 規律的平庸 活的像是 一句標語押韻而服從
Marching to a monotonous rhythm, living as if obedient to a rhyming slogan.

午餐是 隨便還是 都好還是 跟你一樣 的任何一種
Lunch is either casual, or whatever is okay, or any kind that is the same as yours.

奇怪呢 很久以前 我是很有 想法主見 心跳很執著
Strange it is, a long time ago, I used to have passionate ideas and a strong heartbeat.

傷心再也不吹風 現在只害怕傷風 耽誤了誰和誰的要求
No more taking a walk when sad, now I only worry about catching a cold, delaying someone's demands on someone else.

一天一天 看日昇日落 看月圓月缺 年復一年的經過
Day by day, watching the sunrise, sunset, full moon, waning moon, the passing of year after year.

看誰把我變成現在的我
Seeing who has turned me into who I am now.

怕潮起潮落 怕患得患失 錯了又錯的疼痛
Afraid of the ebb and flow, afraid of gains and losses, the pain of making mistakes over and over again.

終於我的生命只剩生存 活著只會呼吸吃飯喝水的生活
Finally, my life is only left with survival, living means only breathing, eating, and drinking.

小時候 只要看天空 枕著白雲 就覺得全世界都擁有
As a child, just looking at the sky, lying on a pillow of white clouds, feeling like I own the whole world.

長大了 擁有的更多 為何感覺 到越來越匱乏越貧窮
Growing up, having more, why do I feel more and more impoverished and poor?

那一年 只追逐自由 現在只能 追逐著漲不停的石油
That year, I only chased after freedom, now I can only chase after the ever-increasing price of oil.

是不是 地殼又震動 要從家裡 震落才悔恨這樣生活
Is it that the earth's crust is shaking again, it takes it to shake my home for me to regret living this way?

生活的 反面會是 死去還是 這般生存 不再有衝動
Is the opposite of life death, or living like this and losing the impulse?

閉上眼 就能感覺 生命正在 一分一秒 飛奔遠離我
Closing my eyes, and I can feel life rushing away from me second by second.

還不如一隻昆蟲 至少能破繭展翅 飛向那被奪走的天空
Better to be an insect, at least it can break free and fly to the sky that was taken away from it.

一年有 三百六十 五個日子 五十二萬 五千多分鐘
There are 365 days in a year, more than 5.25 million minutes.

一生有 三十四億 五千六百 七十八萬 九千下脈搏
There are 3.456 billion heartbeats in a lifetime.

為愛而出生之後 生命要怎麼揮霍 直到我化成煙的時候
After being born for love, how should I squander my life until I turn into smoke?

終於我的生命只剩生存 活著只會呼吸吃飯喝水
Finally, my life is only left with survival, living means only breathing, eating, and drinking.

曾經我也那麼獨一無二
I used to be so unique.

連刷牙 也照著節奏 然後設定了明天 六點半的鬧鐘
Even brushing my teeth follows a rhythm, and then setting the alarm for tomorrow at 6:30am.
