Alec Benjamin - Mind Is A Prison 心之囹圄

比起肉體的囚禁，心之囹圄更令人難以承受，但是我不會放棄希望，也不會停止渴望自由。

I don't live in California, I'll inform you, that's not where I reside

我不住加州，讓我告訴你，那不是我的居住地

I'm just a tenant, paying rent inside this body and I

我只是個房客，租借這個軀體

Got two windows and those windows, well I'll call them my eyes

房裡有兩扇窗，稱它們為雙眸

I'm just going where the wind blows, I don't get to decide

隨波逐流，決定權不在我

Sometimes I think too much, yeah, I get so caught up

有時我想太多、陷太深

I'm always stuck in my head

老是鑽牛角尖

I wish I could escape

多渴望逃脫

I tried to yesterday took all the sheets off my bed

昨天試圖將床單拉出

Then I tied up my linen with five strips of ribbon I found

然後將找到的五條帶子綁在床單上

Scaled the side of the building

一路爬下大樓

I ran to the hills 'til they found me

越過山丘，直到他們找到我

And they put me back in my cell

把我關回牢裡

All by myself, alone with my thoughts again

獨自一人承受著這些思緒

I guess my mind is a prison and I'm never gonna get out

我大概永遠無法逃離心之囹圄

So they tranquilized me, analyzed me, threw me back in my cage

注入鎮定劑、研究我、將我關回牢房

Then they tied me to an IV, told me I was insane

靜脈注射，再告訴我瘋了

I'm a prisoner, a visitor inside of my brain

我是大腦裡的囚犯、訪客

And no matter what I do, they try to keep me in chains

不論我做什麼，都有所桎梏

Sometimes I think to much, yeah, I get so caught up

有時我想得太多、陷得太深

I'm always stuck in my head

總是鑽牛角尖

I wish I could escape

多希望能脫逃

I tried to yesterday took all the sheets off my bed

昨天的我試著將床單拉出

Then I tied up my linen with five strips of ribbon I found

然後綁上找到的五條帶子

Scaled the side of the building

爬出這棟大樓

I ran to the hills 'til they found me

穿越丘陵，直到被他們抓到

And they put me back in my cell

再次關回牢裡

All by myself, alone with my thoughts again

獨自承受所有的思緒

I guess my mind is a prison and I'm never gonna get out

我永遠也逃不出心之囹圄

Said even if it's true, no matter what I do, I'm never gonna escape

即使不論如何我都逃脫不了是事實

I won't give up on hope, secure another rope, and try for another day

日復一日我也不會放棄希望、抓住救生索

Said even if it's true, no matter what I do, I'm never gonna escape

即使不論如何我無法脫逃已注定

I won't give up on hope, secure another rope, and try for another day

日復一日我也不會放棄希望、伸向救生索

Then I tied up my linen with five strips of ribbon I found

然後我將找到的五條帶子繫在床單上

Scaled the side of the building

一路爬出大樓

I ran to the hills 'til they found me

穿越丘陵，直到被抓包

And they put me back in my cell

再度關回牢裡

All by myself, alone with my thoughts again

獨自承受爆炸的小宇宙

I guess my mind is a prison and I'm never gonna get out

或許我一輩子都逃不出心之囹圄

面對混亂而倍感無力，宛如囚禁在監牢，被吵雜的思緒淹沒。你不是第一個，也不會是最後一個，我們都有自己的課題要面對。
