凡人歌 - Live

你我皆凡人 生在人世間
終日奔波苦 一刻不得閒
既然不是仙 難免有雜念
把道義就放兩旁 把利字擺中間

多少男子漢 一怒為紅顏
多少同林鳥 已成了分飛燕
人生何其短 何必苦苦戀
愛人不見了 向誰去喊冤

問你何時曾看見 這世界為了人們改變
有了夢寐以求的容顏 是否就算是擁有春天

你我皆凡人 生在人世間
終日奔波苦 一刻不得閒
你既然不是仙 難免有雜念
把道義就放兩旁 把利字擺中間

多少男子漢 一怒為紅顏
多少同林鳥 已成了分飛燕
人生何其短 何必苦苦戀
愛人不見了 向誰去喊冤

問你何時曾看見 這世界為了人們改變
有了夢寐以求的容顏 是否就算是擁有春天

The Mortal's Song - Live

We are all mortals, living in this world
Toiling all day long, never finding a moment's peace
Since we are not gods, it's difficult to avoid worldly thoughts
To set aside morality and focus on profit

How many men have acted recklessly for a woman's sake
How many birds that once shared the same forest have become scattered and alone
Life is so short, why must we cling so tightly to love?
When a lover vanishes, who can we turn to for justice?

Ask yourself, have you ever seen this world change for the sake of its people?
When you finally possess the face you've always dreamed of

We are all mortals, living in this world
Toiling all day long, never finding a moment's peace
Since you are not a god, it's difficult to avoid worldly thoughts
To set aside morality and focus on profit

How many men have acted recklessly for a woman's sake
How many birds that once shared the same forest have become scattered and alone
Life is so short, why must we cling so tightly to love?
When a lover vanishes, who can we turn to for justice?

Ask yourself, have you ever seen this world change for the sake of its people?
When you finally possess the face you've always dreamed of
