Beneath the streetlights, melting into the night
A destination that no one has in sight
My white breath unravels into the air
Moving away like an answer that’s not there
The word "I’m okay"—just that alone
Was growing cold in my pocket, like a stone
The reason why I even started to walk
I can’t even remember now, no matter how I talk
Lost and wandering, lost and wandering
On a road that has no name
Stopping and staying, stopping and staying
Only my shadow grew, playing the game
Where should I go?
The answer remains ambiguous and low
A future that looks like a shining light
Would surely vanish if I touched it tonight
But even so
But even so
Only the footprints keep increasing in the snow
The arrow on the sign swayed in the night breeze
No matter where it pointed, I felt no ease
The sound of a crossing ringing far away
Was swaying just like my heart, in a gray display
Correct answers, or regrets of the past
Only the names keep increasing so fast
Holding onto a map that’s empty and bare
I keep on walking through the midnight air
Lost and wandering, lost and wandering
Inside the same old night
Silent and still, silent and still
Only our breaths overlapping in the light
Where should I go?
The night just keeps getting deeper, you know
Even the light of a star from afar
Is already ancient by the time it reaches where we are
But even so
But even so
Only the footprints continue to grow
Where should I go?
Maybe I don’t need an answer to show
Even if it’s a mistake or a detour I took
The night I walked through was real—just look
But even so
But even so
I am right here, breathing in the glow
Melting into the night, unraveling in the dawn
Searching for a tiny light to rely upon
Even if my destination
Remains unknown
But even so
But even so
I will keep walking on
