Now it’s almost graduation I don’t know what to do I don’t wanna face the world But I am also sick of school I don’t wanna be employed But I don’t wanna be poor I want routine that is stable But I’m always craving more But I look upon my mother Who tells us that we’re fine And my tired looking father And my brother’s fragile mind And I come to a conclusion That it’s not a place or time It’s in every conversation That I hold with them, That I know I’ve arrived #YanQing #thearrivalsong
