Sunburn

Well is that cloud painted on the sky?
是谁画了这天上的云朵
Or is it simply where the canvas is blank?
又或者它只是恰巧待在那儿
I realize as I stand at the banks
站在河边我突然意识到
Of the river at the feet of the city
这座城市脚下的河流
Where I can see the bigger picture
才是更美的蓝图
And it triggers something deep within me
这深深的触动了我的心灵
Philly
费城
That would be the backdrop
就是那儿
Home to a million little cafes
坐拥百万家咖啡店
With lattes and laptops
咖啡跟笔记本是标配
And that's when I noticed it
我突然意识到
People only seem to leave their homes
人们背井离乡
To float in daydreams and postpone the loneliness
争先恐后来做大梦想家
But sunshine don't mean sunburn
但努力不一定会留下些什么
And a stone is only a stone if you're gonna leave them unturned
石头点石成金之前也只是块石头
Some learn just a little quicker than others
总有人会先懂得这道理
You've gotta live like you never knew the definition of it
去生活 就像你从不知道为了什么
And sunshine don't mean sunburn
过程比结果重要
But a stone is only a stone if you're gonna leave them unturned
石头点石成金之前也只是块石头
Some learn just a little quicker than others
总有人会先懂得这道理
You've gotta love like you never knew the definition of it
去爱吧 就像你从不知道为了什么
I met a girl at the Jersey Shore
我遇见了一个女孩
That wore clip on earrings and stumbled in high heels
大耳环高跟鞋蹒跚而行
And no I wasn't sober when she tapped me on the shoulder
她拍了一下我的肩膀当我烂醉如泥
But I told her that I thought her smile wasn't quite real
但我告诉她 她的笑容美得像梦一样
And it must have been the drinks
我一定是醉了
Cause I ain't that smooth
我才没那么油嘴滑舌
Well it could have been the ink
好吧也许是因为纹身
She had a few tattoos
她的纹身太多了
But dude it's hard to find a woman at a cover band bar
但是小老弟 乐队酒吧有个女的就不错了
That prefers a conversation to another man's car
看上去她跟旁边的男的更聊得来
On the real
老实说
And maybe all she wanted was a cigarette
或许她只是想要借个火
Or may she was just a shadow in my drunk dream
或者只是我的南柯一梦
She gave a name and a number that wasn't hers
她给我留的是别人的联系方式
Said we all got a shadow moonlighting as a sunbeam
她说月光下我们的影子照得发亮
And sunshine don't mean sunburn
经历比结果重要

They tell me sleep is the cousin of death
他们告诉我说睡眠跟死亡脱不了干系
So I would guess that a dream is the daughter of sleep
所以我想梦想是不是真的如梦一场啊
Sometimes I wonder whether Witness even exists
也没人给个说法
Or if it's just a dream that was caught in the beat
又或者是我们叛逆才有了梦想
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
来告诉我我的flow很强
Now I'm in the basement til the break of dawn
在地下室一练练到天亮
Making songs
写歌全TM是饶舌说唱
Seeking validation from the Hip Hop heads
从嘻哈狗那试图获得阿谀
Like the praise and adulation is the only thing I got left
只想要听到胡说赞美言语
But on the surface the water appears still
一切表面看上去风平浪静
Unaffected by the children skipping stones on it's skin
不受一点孩童嬉戏的引力
Sometimes I bet it wishes it could just disappear
我敢打赌它宁愿自己消失
Like a feather in the city being blown by the wind
就像轻易被风带走的羽毛
But sunshine don't mean sunburn
尝试过比结果重要

We all wanna disappear sometimes
我们都有想把自己藏起来的时候
We all wanna disappear sometimes
我们都有钻牛角尖的时候
We all wanna disappear sometimes
我们都有自闭的时候
But we wake up every morning just in case that sun shines
但当我们每天醒来 都暴露在这阳光下 一览无遗
We all wanna disappear sometimes
我们都有想把自己藏起来的时候
We all wanna disappear sometimes
我们都有钻牛角尖的时候
We all wanna disappear sometimes
我们都有自闭的时候
But we wake up every morning just in case that sun shines
但当我们每天醒来 赤裸裸在这阳光下 充满希望
