Lyric

From Birth to the Present

Hiperson

06 出生から現在まで

彼は霧の中 インターネットがロマンティックで未熟な時代を夢想する

彼女は働く 現実を見据えて 働く

彼は何を生活とは何かと知りたいと思う

彼女は小隊と一緒に人類の記念碑を視察したいと思う

彼は知っている 犠牲に値するものをまだ認識していないと

彼女は ダンスを学んでいる

父母は彼女の身体を空虚からすくい上げる

あの黒色の水銀を少し振って

彼女を木製の台に置いた

わたし達の先祖や神様の一団が検診され

ひそひそ話される 彼らのお話とは-

「これは模範的な職員になるぞ!」

「これは地質学者になる!」

「それでは、彼女は?」

「彼女は夜明け前の斥候になるだろう」

「衰えが徐々に彼らの神経を覆ってしまうとき」

「彼らにしかるべき報酬を与えよう」

「そして 彼らに大昔からの奇跡を与えよう」

「彼らに勇気を与えよう」

「彼らに忍耐を与えよう」

「彼らに文学や流行から目覚める力を与えよう」

「彼らに勇気を与えよう」

「彼らに忍耐を与えよう」

「彼らにTV番組を放送する時間も与えよう」

06 从出生到现在

他在雾霾之中,做着网络浪漫青涩之时的旧梦

她在对现实的逼视中工作、工作

他想知道什么叫生活

她想和小分队前去考察人类的丰碑

他知道,他还没有认清值得为之牺牲的

她学舞蹈

父母把她的身体从虚空中打捞

抖了抖那黑色的水银

把她放在木头基座上

我们的先祖和神明列队视察

絮絮叨叨地,他们说——

“他将成为模范职员!”

“他将成为地质学家!”

“而她呢?”

“她会成为黎明前的斥候。”

“当衰老逐渐占领他们的神经,”

“给他们应有的报酬,”

“还给他们远古的奇迹。”

“给他们勇气,”

“给他们耐心,”

给他们从文学和流行中醒来的力气。”

“给他们勇气,”

“给他们耐心,”

“也给他们播放节目的时间!”

06 From Birth to the Present

He dreams, in the smog, of the old time when the Internet was romantic and immature

She works, with her close-up look at the reality, she works

He wants to know: what is life

She wants to inspect humanity’s milestones with a team

He knows that he hasn’t recognised what’s worth his sacrifice

She learns to dance

Her parents bring her body out of emptiness

Shake the black mercury off

And put her on top of a wooden plinth

Our gods and ancestors come in a procession to inspect

Saying incessantly —

‘This one will become a model employee!’

‘This one will become a geologist!’

‘What about her?’

‘She will become a scout before the dawn.’

‘When aging gradually occupies their nerves,’

‘reward them as they deserve,’

‘and give back to them the ancient miracles.’

‘Give them courage,’

‘give them patience,’

‘give them the strength to wake up from literature and fashion.’

‘Give them courage,’

‘give them patience,’

‘give them also time to broadcast TV shows!’

    Hiperson

Hiperson is past its growing pains. The five-piece rock band has been through numerous cy-cles of growth over its 8 years of existence, expanding in sonic breadth and lyrical depth, re-fining its craft over two universally applauded studio albums, a 2019 EP for London imprint Damnably, and pulse-raising live performances across dozens of cities in China and Europe. As indie rock resurges as a mainstream cultural force in China, Hiperson refuses to cash in on the trend, refuses to veer from the difficult line they walk between the immediacy of gut-punch punk rock and the elastic, emotive sensibilities baked into their arrangements. As ever, the aphoristic wisdom of lyricist and singer Chen Sijiang leads the listener to the edge of danger, through landscapes of cold reality, oscillating between daily life and illusion.

Hiperson is set to release its third studio album, Bildungsroman, this summer. Recorded in the legendary Hansa Studios in Berlin, Bildungsroman sees Hiperson at their best and most pro-found, a band stretching into its skin, confidently raising its multitudinous and profound voice.
