清醒

我想有些人應該有類似的經驗，一種...... 即將清醒、卻又似醒非醒沉浸在夢裏的經驗。

現實中有許多事情或人，令你想要遠離，能漂流得越遠越好，但這個情境正好相反，你巴不得自己能在那意識之海中溺死，哪怕再也不能醒來也無所謂，在那模糊的意識之海中載浮載沉，你得以重溫往日的美好，也能夠再一次面對那些惱人的情緒，修補許多已彌補不了的事。

哦，你不該醒來，一覺醒來後睜開眼，你大腦在夜晚所建構出的另個世界就這樣瓦解，那不值得，你會覺得早晨的光亮是那樣刺眼，刺著你的視覺、也刺著你的心。

你畏懼了，試著再度潛回深海，在那你不會為光線苦惱，反而會有種歸宿感，雖然有點寒冷內心卻感到無比溫暖。

誰應該喚醒你呢？讓你曉得內心的聲音一直都是種反射，如果不能吸收的話，就只能如此永無止境下去。

「滴滴滴滴...... 滴滴滴滴......」

這次跟什麼水呀、意識之海的東西無關了。

「是刺耳的鬧鐘聲呀。」你擠出一絲笑容笑著說。

Micah P. Hinson - Me and You

就像那不能再跨越的——
一再發生的悲劇。

認不清的事實、認不清的面容、
認不清的我和你。

總該有些什麼，
在最後幽暗的日子裏......

----------------------------------------------

我和你
而不是你和我
而不是我們
總有些什麼......

我和你
而不是你和我
而不是我們
我們總在互相揣測

總在互相揣測

互相揣測......

Me and you
As opposed to you and me
As opposed to us
There must be something

Me and you
As opposed to you and me
As opposed to us
We're always second-guessing

Me and you
As opposed to you and me
As opposed to us
There must be something

Me and you
As opposed to you and me
As opposed to us
We're always second-guessing
Second-guessing
Second-guessing
Second-guessing

殘

我是否聽得見，在最後燃燒的瞬間，

那遠方的呼喊，消散於風中的遺憾。

其實就是那樣罷了，只是時間的滴答聲依舊倉促，

提醒著自己，就像當時徐志摩詩裏提到的──



「我自己的心的，活埋的喪鐘」。

[歌詞翻譯] Richard Hawley - For Your Lover Give Some Time

昨天是你生日
我送的禮物令你欣喜若狂
但老實說，我差點就給忘在火車上
給你的愛人些時間吧

你電話總是說個沒完
和你的母親聊、把我的思緒冷落一旁
有時我會想，我們的愛會變得如此也真奇怪
給你的愛人些時間吧

我會戒掉這些菸的
留在家看你縫補破了的洋裝
刺上一朵有你名字的玫瑰在胸膛上
做你永遠的愛人

也許我會少喝點
早點回家，不去抱怨今天的事
時而從墓園帶些花回來
給你的愛人些時間吧


我想起了那些曾見過的地方
我就像海面上打水漂的頑石
了無歸宿的浪子、沒有共享的夢
沒留給我的愛人任何時間

Helene 這杯酒敬你
獻給記憶中，為了躲雨奔進電影院裏的我們
歡笑中、揪緊著、濕透的報紙捱在你臉上
為了愛你願意給些時間

我會戒掉這些菸的
留在家看你縫補破了的洋裝
刺上一朵有你名字的玫瑰在胸膛上
做你永遠的愛人

也許我會少喝點
早點回家，不去抱怨今天的事
時而從墓園帶些花回來
給我的愛人些時間吧
給你的愛人些時間吧

It was your birthday yesterday
I gave a gift that almost took your breath away
But to be honest I nearly left it on the train
For your lover give some time

You talk forever on the phone
To your mother and with my thoughts I'm left alone
Now and then I think how strange our love has grown
For your lover give some time

I will give up these cigarettes
Stay at home and watch you mend a tear in your dress
Have your name in a rose tattooed across my chest
And be your lover for all time

Maybe I will drink a little less
Come home early and not complain about the day
And give you flowers from the graveyard now and then
For your lover give some time


I think of places that I've seen
A skipping stone across the ocean I have been
A rootless man with no one else to share my dream
And for my lover gave no time

Here's a toast to you Helene
To all the cinemas we ran in from the rain
Laughing clutching soaking newspapers to your face
And for your love you gave some time

I will give up these cigarettes
Stay at home and watch you mend the tears in your dress
Have your name in a rose tattooed across my chest
And be your lover for all time

Maybe I will drink a little less
Come home early and not complain about the day
And give you flowers from the graveyard now and then
And for my lover give some time
For your lover give some time
