Children of the City

Sleep for a total of 800 hours per day
致……請每日睡足八百小時
And then drink a liter of milk, warm up before you go play
喝下一升牛奶，運動前請熱身
Only eat, or write, or pull the trigger with your right hand
請在吃飯，寫字，或扣下扳機時使用右手
Only thing that's left is to work on following commands
唯一的準則即是謹遵指令之意
By the time you realize, you'll be restrained to a desk
在你意識一切之前，你會被囚禁在書桌之前
And with your dreams on the floor you comply, eyes chained to the test
大腦放空，謹遵指令
In 30 minutes find a groom or bride, bonus if brunette
在30分鐘內找到一名伴侶，棕色頭髮為佳
In 90 hours spill their insides, paint your room picturesque

Now it's time for another vendetta
現在，我們解決另一場血仇
Going through the shelves, picking out my prewritten persona
在書架之間穿行，選擇我預寫的可選人設
Children of the city see only the neon stars
都市之子目及之處
Reflected upon the murky gutter sky
盡霓虹星光在污水溝之中閃耀
Don't ask me why I desperately wish to be included in the city's night
就請不要問我為何想要陷入都市的夜色之中吧
In 400,000 meters, turn right
致……請在400,000米後右轉
Pick up a knife and stab a familiar warm body
撿起一把刀，刺入溫暖而又熟悉的身體
Learned to fight before I knew love or bitterness of coffee
在我品嚐愛或咖啡的苦澀之前，我早已學會戰鬥
Snippy scissors cut down the strings, I set myself free
唐突地用剪刀剪開我身上的牽線，讓自己自由
Only to figure out everything I chose was by proxy
卻發現我所做的一切，依舊都在劇本以內
As we suckled upon the 9mm pacifier
當我們吮吸9mm的奶嘴
Swallowing the fact that other than to expand we had no purpose
知曉我們除擴張物種以外毫無意義的事實
As my everburning will to stay afloat backfires
在我的唐突終於引火燒身之時
I now know I must be comfortable being who I considered worthless
我終於明白我必須成為我所不屑的人
Follow the city's ribbon
隨著都市拋出的綬帶
To a heart nobody seems to listen
走進一顆未有人傾聽過得內心
It takes my heart being broken and broken again
終於知曉一次一次我心碎的原因
To know that I am the reason why the sufferings never end
自我的存在，才讓我痛苦永不熄滅
Now it's time for another vendetta
現在，赴另一場血仇吧
Going through the shelves, picking out my prewritten persona
在書架之間穿梭，帶上我早已備好的面具
Children of the city see only the neon stars
都市之子目及之處
Reflected upon the murky gutter sky
盡霓虹星光在污水溝之中閃耀
Don't ask me why I desperately wish to be noticed by the city's eyes
就請別問我為何如此迫切地想被都市所注意
Do not go home until you finish reading the value of e
