Sidewalk chalk fades where childhood played
人行道粉笔画褪色在童年嬉戏处
Your scraped knees found shelter in my shade
你擦伤的膝盖曾在我荫蔽下寻得庇护
Twenty springs I carried your books home
二十个春天我为你捧书归家
While you traced constellations in my palms' creases
而你在我掌心纹路里画着星座图
Every just friends carved deeper grooves
每一次只是朋友都刻下更深的沟壑
In the atlas of my foolish youth
在我愚蠢青春的地图册上
Oh we were origami swans
哦我们曾是折纸天鹅
Folded in might-have-beens all along
始终折叠在未竟的愿望之中
You pressed my love into paper planes
你将我的爱折成纸飞机
While I bled confessions in invisible ink
而我用隐形墨水写告白字字渗血
Carnation trembles in rented tux lapel
康乃馨在租来礼服翻领上颤
Your laughter crystallizes when he says babe
他唤宝贝时你笑声凝结成冰晶
I become taxidermy of devotion
我成了虔诚爱意的标本
Smiling through formaldehyde tears
带着甲醛眼泪微笑
The day your world cracks like carnival glass
当你的世界如彩绘玻璃碎裂那天
Watching my shadow merge with another's
看着我的身影融入他人轮廓
You finally hear the unsung symphony
你终于听见那无声的交响
Of every you matter I swallowed whole
由所有我咽下的你很重要谱成
Now we're shattered porcelain dolls
如今我们是破碎的瓷娃娃
Dancing in the graveyard of almosts
在差一点的墓园里起舞
Your nostalgia blooms like funeral lilies
你的怀旧如葬礼百合绽放
Too late too late when the coffin's sealed
太迟太迟当棺椁已封
In parallel universes maybe
在平行宇宙里也许
Our fingerprints align differently
我们的指纹会有不同契合
But this timeline's clockwork heart
但这条时间线的齿轮心脏
Only beats in elegy
只跳动出挽歌的节奏
