Inscriptions

夜行者之歌 手套底內苦寒 冰冷了街燈寂靜 唇角星火凝著嬝嬝 步步急促 衝不破行行滴滴 擦面而過的陰影 有誰在乎那淚珠 流下流下 明秋書于深圳四不館 Song of the Night Walker Freezing inside glove Cooling the silent street light Smoke ribbons rise from the heat of the lip’s corner Galloping pace Unable to break streams of tears Stranger’s shadow passes Doesn’t care about the drops Falling Down Ming Chip scripted in Shenzhen Four NO Studio
