This hammer pounds to give me form

this flame,it melts my dreams

I'm sure I'm bound to find
我坚信我都能看到
So dream a little,dream for me
那就再让我小梦一场
in hopes that I'll remain
在残留的希冀之中
And cry a little,cry for me
再让我落泪一次
so I can bear the flames
好让我熄下这些淬火
And hurt a little,hurt for me
再让我痛多一丝
my future is untold
