Lyrics:
Wandering,on the road
Are you leaving.
Fragile,proud
That was once my appearance too
Boiling,restless
Where are you going.
Mysterious,silent
Are you really listening to the story.

I once crossed mountains and seas,and passed through crowds of people
I once had everything,but in a blink of an eye,it all scattered like smoke
I once was lost,disappointed,losing all direction
Until I saw that ordinariness is the only answer

When you are still fantasizing
About your tomorrow
Will it be better,or worse.
For me,it's just another day
I once destroyed everything I had,just wanting to leave forever
I once fell into endless darkness,wanting to struggle but unable to escape
I was once like you,like him,like those wild grasses and flowers
Despairing,longing,crying won't bring the answer

I once crossed mountains and seas,and passed through crowds of people
I once had everything,but in a blink of an eye,it all scattered like smoke
I once was lost,disappointed,losing all direction
Until I saw that ordinariness is the only answer

I once crossed mountains and seas,and passed through crowds of people
I once asked the whole world,but never got an answer
I am just like you,like him,like those wild grasses and flowers
In the dark,this is the only path I must take

Ah... Until I saw that ordinariness is the only answer

What type of vinyl record?

Vinyl records were the dominant music format in the 20th century. Because vinyl records offer the closest sound quality to the original audio without distortion, they provide a more authentic and perfect listening experience, appealing to people of all ages.

Value of vinyl

The same vinyl record released in different years not only has different disc cores, but also different record thickness, width and depth of the grooves, and order, so the sound will naturally be different.
