(The Ripe & Ruin)

[Verse]
她也就只曾曾曾曾曾
She-she-she-she only ev-ev-ver-ver-ver-ver
數數數數數著她步伐
Walks to-to count-count her steps
每十八步步步她才停一次
Eighteen-teen strides and she stops to abide
次次都遵守她定下的規則
By the law that she herself has set
這十八步才是完整一套
That eighteen steps is one complete set
緊接又是踱步左右九次
And before the next nine right and nine left
她抬頭看看看著碧藍
She looks up-up at the blue
靜默朗誦下列所有句子：
And whispers to all of the above:
“別讓我絕望，也別讓我孤獨”
Dont let me drown, dont breathe alone
“沒有鎮痛，沒有折磨，沒有破碎軀體”
No kicks, no pangs, no broken bones
“更不要讓我沉淪，而是替我找回心安”
Never let me sink, always feel at home
“沒有棍擊，沒有腳踢，沒有擲石驚擾”
No sticks , no shanks, and no stones
“更不要讓我久等，而是要帶我去體味
Never leave it too late, always enjoy the taste
籠罩於心的龐大大大的灰暗世界”
Of the great-great-great grey world of hearts
可四周突如其來的犬吠將她喚醒
As all dogs everywhere bark-bark-bark-bark
你應該曉得
Its worth knowing
生命的均衡猶如佳果
Like all good fruit, the balance of life
在成熟與腐敗間博弈
Is in the ripe and ruin
