《Jim Cain》 Bill Callahan

吉姆·凯恩——比尔·卡拉汉

I started out in search of ordinary things

我开始探寻平淡无奇之事

How much of a tree bends in the wind

譬如一棵树如何在风中弯曲

I started telling the story without knowing the end

我开始讲述不知结局的故事

I used to be darker, then I got lighter, then I got dark again

我曾经黯淡无光，接着我逐渐闪亮，最终我重归黑暗

Something to be seen was passing over and over me

我经历着岁月洗礼，世事冲刷

Well, it seemed like the routine case at first

最初看似庸常的事情

With the death of the shadow came a lightness of verse

却笼罩着死亡暗影，绽放如诗光芒

But the darkest of nights, in truth, still dazzles

可事实上最沉寂的黑夜，依然绚烂

And I wore myself until I'm frazzled

我饱受摧残，直到我疲惫不堪

I ended up in search of ordinary things

我不再探寻平淡无奇之事

Like how can a wave possibly be?

就如一片波浪如何泛起

I started running, and the concrete turned to sand

我开始奔跑，现实的具像幻化成沙

I started running, and things didn't pan out as planned

我开始奔跑，一切并未如我所愿

In case things go poorly and I not return

假使一切每况愈下，我将不再重来

Remember the good things I've done

可我会把自己经历的美好铭记于心

In case things go poorly and I not return

假使一切每况愈下 ，我将不再重来

Remember the good things I've done

可我会把自己经历的美好铭记于心

Done me in

牢记在心
