Regarding how to put on the show, could you write a plan?

Regarding what to do when the show is done,

Could you write up a plan?

Regarding the hopeless future, could you write a plan?

Regarding the distance, June, the journey’s end,

Could you write up a plan?

Regarding your heartbeat, the moment it stops,

And what memories flash before you then,

Could you write up a plan?

Regarding bus stops, blizzards, the reaches of the tide,

Could you write up a plan?

Regarding whether to smile when meeting a stranger,

Could you write up a plan?

Regarding how to rescue a stranded soul,

Could you write up a plan?

Regarding love that does not endure,

And age’s final hours,

Could you write up a plan?

Regarding death, how to die, and what comes after,

No matter what comes, could you write up a plan?

关于节目怎么办，请你写一个方案

关于节目停办后怎么办

请你写一个方案

关于无望的未来，请你写一个方案

关于远方，六月，旅行的终结

请你写一个方案

关于心跳，关于停止的瞬间

你在回忆什么

请你写一个方案

关于车站，暴雪，潮汐的尽头

请你写一个方案

关于路遇陌生人微笑之必要与不必要

请你写一个方案

关于如何救助一颗受困的心灵

请你写一个方案

关于无以为继的爱

与衰老的一刻钟

请你写一个方案

关于死亡，如何死亡以及死后如何

无论如何，请你写一个方案
