The Ordinary Road | A YP Song

[tadabug2000 4918]

A depiction of Li-Ren and Oyashiman alike finding themselves along the road to the Jade State of Yong Ping in search of a better future, Year 24 of SA, 14th of the First Seed.

To those who wander on the road

Ready to go? (via via)

Those who’re fragile, those who’re proud

I used to be part of your crowd

You who are uncertain or bold

Where do you go? (via via)

Secretive and mysterious

Are you still listening to us?

 

I’ve walked across the mountains and seas,

and in crowds beyond all these

I thought I once had everything

but it faded in the breeze

I’ve been frustrated, hopeless, wondering where I should be

‘Til I realized the clue was in the ordinary

While you are still there wondering

Of coming things, via via

Will life get better or will things

Get worse; as time keeps on rolling

Will life improve or will life bring

Even more pain as we’re changing?

 

I have once ruined everything,

hoping that would set me free

Into the darkness I would then sink,

couldn’t stop me from falling

I copied everybody; lost my identity

Longing and despairing, just being ordinary

Time to go, we all know, even if you got more

 

You must go, walk this road, even if you are poor

Time to go, and it don’t matter even before

If this road, you must go on even if….

And so time flies past, just like that

 

Tomorrow’s here, imagine that

Breezes blowing; we’re still going

We’re listening now to your story

Alas, every time I tried to paste over the Chinese version or at least the characters for it alongside the English portion, it kept completely making the forum post wonky and eventually gave up
