Go back in time

I didn't wear a watch when I was 18, but I had time,
Enough time for me to play and to be wild,
One night I had a nightmare,
Time flies, suddenly, I turned 27 years old,
I no longer dared to be lazy anymore,
It is never too late to struggle.
 
Then suddenly, it came to this autumn,
I could hear the sound of falling leaves,
Looking around, I should have had all,
With wine, sports car, camera, luxury, gold watch around me,
Everyone in the world was jealous of me.
 
Having used all the time in exchange for money and all the luxury,
Seeing the gold watch in my wrist,
I’ve got no time left,
The hands of time have stopped.
How ridiculous!
 
Once paid how much effort and heartbeat,
In exchange for stacks of invoices,
It is worth spending a few seconds in my life to buy a watch,
The seconds are tight,
And the skin actually secretly wrinkled with age,
Which is why I realized what really matters to me when I used up my time.
 
Seeing the gold watch on my wrist,
Remembering the lesson about time,
I wind the crown in vain,
And when I turn around, sadly, it's dark at night.
 
I have paid every second in my life,
Have you got enough gold watches in your pocket?
Have you still hours and minutes to spare?
Seeing the gold watch on my wrist,
I fall into silence forever.
