Sunburn

Well is that cloud painted on the sky?
是誰畫了這天上的雲朵
Or is it simply where the canvas is blank?
又或者它只是恰巧待在那兒
I realize as I stand at the banks
站在河邊我突然意識到
Of the river at the feet of the city
這座城市腳下的河流
Where I can see the bigger picture
才是更美的藍圖
And it triggers something deep within me
這深深的觸動了我的心靈
Philly
費城
That would be the backdrop
就是那兒
Home to a million little cafes
坐擁百萬家咖啡店
With lattes and laptops
咖啡跟筆記本是標配
And that's when I noticed it
我突然意識到
People only seem to leave their homes
人們背井離鄉
To float in daydreams and postpone the loneliness
爭先恐後來做大夢想家
But sunshine don't mean sunburn
但努力不一定會留下些什麼
And a stone is only a stone if you're gonna leave them unturned
石頭點石成金之前也只是塊石頭
Some learn just a little quicker than others
總有人會先懂得這道理
You've gotta live like you never knew the definition of it
去生活就像你從不知道為了什麼
And sunshine don't mean sunburn
過程比結果重要
But a stone is only a stone if you're gonna leave them unturned
石頭點石成金之前也只是塊石頭
Some learn just a little quicker than others
總有人會先懂得這道理
You've gotta love like you never knew the definition of it
去愛吧就像你從不知道為了什麼
I met a girl at the Jersey Shore
我遇見了一個女孩
That wore clip on earrings and stumbled in high heels
大耳環高跟鞋蹣跚而行
And no I wasn't sober when she tapped me on the shoulder
她拍了一下我的肩膀當我爛醉如泥
But I told her that I thought her smile wasn't quite real
但我告訴她她的笑容美得像夢一樣
And it must have been the drinks
我一定是醉了
Cause I ain't that smooth
我才沒那麼油嘴滑舌
Well it could have been the ink
好吧也許是因為紋身
She had a few tattoos
她的紋身太多了
But dude it's hard to find a woman at a cover band bar
但是小老弟樂隊酒吧有個女的就不錯了
That prefers a conversation to another man's car
看上去她跟旁邊的男的更聊得來
On the real
老實說
And maybe all she wanted was a cigarette
或許她只是想要藉個火
Or may she was just a shadow in my drunk dream
或者只是我的南柯一夢
She gave a name and a number that wasn't hers
她給我留的是別人的聯繫方式
Said we all got a shadow moonlighting as a sunbeam
她說月光下我們的影子照得發亮
And sunshine don't mean sunburn
經歷比結果重要

石頭點石成金之前也只是塊石頭
Some learn just a little quicker than others
總有人會先懂得這道理

They tell me sleep is the cousin of death
他們告訴我說睡眠跟死亡脫不了乾系
So I would guess that a dream is the daughter of sleep
所以我想夢想是不是真的如夢一場啊
Sometimes I wonder whether Witness even exists
也沒人給個說法
Or if it's just a dream that was caught in the beat
又或者是我們叛逆才有了夢想
They're like kid, you got it going on
那需要一些赤子之心你知道的
Tell me that my flow is strong
來告訴我我的flow很強
Now I'm in the basement til the break of dawn
在地下室一練練到天亮
Making songs
寫歌全TM是饒舌說唱
Seeking validation from the Hip Hop heads
從嘻哈狗那試圖獲得阿諛
Like the praise and adulation is the only thingI got left
只想要聽到胡說讚美言語
But on the surface the water appears still
一切表面看上去風平浪靜
Unaffected by the children skipping stones on it's skin
不受一點孩童嬉戲的引力
Sometimes I bet it wishes it could just disappear
我敢打賭它寧願自己消失
Like a feather in the city being blown by the wind
就像輕易被風帶走的羽毛
But sunshine don't mean sunburn
嘗試過比結果重要
And a stone is only a stone if you're gonna leave them unturned
石頭點石成金之前也只是塊石頭

We all wanna disappear sometimes
我們都有想把自己藏起來的時候
We all wanna disappear sometimes
我們都有鑽牛角尖的時候
We all wanna disappear sometimes
我們都有自閉的時候
But we wake up every morning just in case that sun shines
但當我們每天醒來都暴露在這陽光下一覽無遺
We all wanna disappear sometimes
我們都有想把自己藏起來的時候
We all wanna disappear sometimes
我們都有鑽牛角尖的時候
We all wanna disappear sometimes
我們都有自閉的時候
But we wake up every morning just in case that sun shines
但當我們每天醒來赤裸裸在這陽光下充滿希望
