about

致親愛的你：

看出窗外，怎麼又是下雨天，不過反正也只能留在家中，天陰天晴也沒差多少吧。

有時候會想啊，大家都在面對相同的事情啊，也不好意思增添別人的苦惱了，待時間過去，心中那片污雲應該會自然消散吧？但其實心底裡最渴望的是身旁有人聽我說這說那，一起哭個痛快。有時候又會想，大家也有這個想法嗎，是都害怕麻煩別人，所以沒把話好好說出來嗎？

雖然我沒比你好得多，但如果你想起我了，我就在這啊，就讓我們伴著彼此，一起渡過這最長的黑夜啊，好嗎？
---
In the midst of darkness, sometimes it can feel like the sun will never rise
and we are not quite sure what to do
or what to say

and that’s ok
let us stay close to each other
we will get through this together

this is not the end,
I am by your side.

----------------------------------------------------------
2020年是Modern Children重新出發的一年，年初推出了單曲《Guts》，原本計劃了一系列的現場演出因疫情關係只好押後，繼續創作的同時也試試不定期在網上直播串流跟大家見面。

事隔半年，這回找來Romer String Quartet 羅曼四重奏，合作全新作品《Flightless Bird》。日子再難過，我們也會在此陪伴著你，聽你的故事你的煩惱，哭著擁抱著，不要害怕，有我在。

lyrics

Stuck in the room
Feels like a tomb
No difference between day and night
Eyes close,
Nothing bright in your mind

Bird sees you cry
Tears in your eyes
You used to be a boy without shadows.
The bird sings:
"I'll stay with you in this dark room"

To hear your sad stories
To hear your frustrations
Today

I know, you're in your sufferings,
You're in your mind battles
But This is not the end
I'll be with you through the longest night

Under the grey sky
together we cry, we cry……
This is not the end
I am by your side
