.
It's a Mandarin song that roughly translates into:
"The stronger the wind blows, the braver I feel,
I'm dancing freely in the wind like I'm a grain of sand,
I'm going to hold on to my resolve and my fragile courage,
And head straight into the tornado."
There's more to it. It's a song about how we stay strong in the face of adversity and challenge ourselves to go forward, no matter how difficult or scary it is.
In case anyone here knows Mandarin, the name of the song is "野子".

"Don't you know I'm numb, man
No I can't feel a thing at all
'Cause it's
All smiles and business these days
And I'm indifferent to the loss
And I think that there's a soul somewhere
That's leading me round
I wonder if she knows which way is down
...
Blind man on a canyon's edge
Of a panoramic scene
Maybe I'm kite that's flying high and random
Dangling a string
Or slumped over in a vacant room
Head on a stranger's knee
I'm sure back home
They think I've lost my mind"
- Ben Folds Five, "Evaporated"
Even the SOUND of this song is how I feel at the moment (and often).

Same mistake
(James Blunt)
Saw the world turning in my sheets and once again I cannot sleep.
Walk out the door and up the street; look at the stars beneath my feet.
Remember rights that I did wrong, so here I go.
Hello, hello. There is no place I cannot go.
My mind is muddy but my heart is heavy. Does it show?
I lose the track that loses me, so here I go.
And so I sent some men to fight, and one came back at dead of night.
Said he'd seen my enemy. Said he looked just like me,
So I set out to cut myself and here I go.
I'm not calling for a second chance,
I'm screaming at the top of my voice.
Give me reason but don't give me choice.
'Cause I'll just make the same mistake again.
And maybe someday we will meet, and maybe talk and not just speak.
Don't buy the promises 'cause, there are no promises I keep.
And my reflection troubles me, so here I go.
(...)

Saw the world turning in my sheets and once again I cannot sleep.
Walk out the door and up the street; look at the stars.
Look at the stars fall down.
And wonder where did I go wrong.
