It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding)

Darkness at the break of noon
黑暗籠罩在中午小憩時分
Shadows even the silver spoon
即便是銀匙也會投下陰影
The handmade blade, the child's balloon
手工打製的刀片孩子玩弄的氣球
Eclipses both the sun and moon
日食月食同時惊現
To understand you know too soon
彷彿明白你總是知之太早
There is no sense in trying
繼續嘗試下去沒有意義

指出威脅所在他們面帶輕蔑虛張聲勢
Pointed threats, they bluff with scorn
自殺輿論土崩瓦解
Suicide remarks are torn
來自這個傻子的如簧巧舌空洞的號角
From the fool's gold mouthpiece the hollow horn
裝點著廢話結果只為了引起警惕
Plays wasted words, proves to warn
他不是忙於出生而是忙於去死
That he not busy being born is busy dying
誘惑迷人的那一幕飛出門外

你緊緊跟隨驀然發現你已陷入戰爭
Temptation's page flies out the door
望著瀑布憐憫地激盪直下
You follow, find yourself at war
你雖然悲嘆不已但早已不復從前
Watch waterfalls of pity roar
你發現你只是變成另一個人
You feel to moan but unlike before
失聲痛哭的人
You discover that you'd just be one more
所以別恐懼啊如果你聽到
Person crying
逆耳的一聲微響

沒關係媽媽我只是在唉聲嘆氣
So don't fear if you hear
當有人對勝利發出警示有人一再墮落
A foreign sound to your ear
理由大大小小應有盡有
It's alright, Ma, I'm only sighing
在他們喚醒的眼簾一閃而過

為了讓所有人匍匐在地慘遭蹂躪
As some warn victory, some downfall
然而其他人說我並不討厭這種感覺
Private reasons great or small
除了仇恨
Can be seen in the eyes of those that call
幻滅的話語像子彈呼嘯而過
To make all that should be killed to crawl
人類之神旨在留下他們的標誌
While others say don't hate nothing at all
讓一切躲過那些閃著火花的玩具槍
Except hatred
為了同樣具有肉身的耶穌在黑夜里大發異彩

周圍不遠的地方皆可抬頭望見
Disillusioned words like bullets bark
其實一點不神聖肅穆
As human gods aim for their mark
當傳教士傳播著惡魔宿命之說
Make everythingfrom toy guns that spark
老師們教授現有的那些膚淺知識
To flesh-colored Christs that glow in the dark
最終只是為了盛滿百元大鈔的銀盤
It's easy to see without looking too far
善良躲在門後瑟瑟發抖
That not much is really sacred
但是即便是美利堅總統

有時也必須毫無保留地展現在公眾面前
While preachers preach of evil fates
一再被提交通過的那些道路規則
Teachers teach that knowledge waits
那隻是人們一再推脫而捏造的遊戲
Can lead to hundred-dollar plates
沒關係媽媽我能迎刃而解
Goodness hides behind its gates
大力宣揚他們一直反對的口號
But even the president of the United States
你得靜下心來想想你就是那樣的人
Sometimes must have to stand naked
能為人所不為之事

能取得前所未有的成功
An' though the rules of the road have been lodged
同時讓外面喧囂的生活照常進行
It's only people's games that you got to dodge
這一切都包圍著你
And it's alright, Ma, I can make it
你迷失自我又再度歸來

你突然發現你沒什麼好懼怕的
Advertising signs they con
煢煢孑立無人和你親近
You into thinking you're the one
突然一個遙遠而發顫的聲音隱約傳來
That can do what's never been done
驚醒你熟睡的耳朵
That can win what's never been won
他們說有人認為他們真的發現你啦
Meantime life outside goes on
你突然全身驚悚冒出一個疑問
All around you
但你知道仍然找不到合適的答案

為了讓你滿意確保你鍥而不捨
You lose yourself, you reappear
讓它一直在你心中停留永遠不忘
You suddenly find you got nothing to fear
它不屬於任何其他人而是
Alone you stand with nobody near
只屬於你
When a trembling distant voice, unclear
雖然統治者制定了法規戒律
Startles your sleeping ears to hear
只為了壓制那些賢儒和傻子
That somebody thinks they really found you
我一無所有了媽媽我將踐行到底

對於那些服從權威的人們啊
A question in your nerves is lit
某種程度上他們不值得尊敬
Yet you know there is no answer fit
鄙視自己的工作不達目的絕不罷休
To satisfy, insure you not to quit
懷著嫉妒之心談起那些自由自在的人
To keep it in your mind and not forget
精心澆灌他們的花朵茁壯成長
That it is not he or she or them or it
除此之外不再有可以寄予期望的東西
That you belong to
當按規矩辦事的人接受洗禮

為了維繫黨派之間的森嚴關係
Although the masters make the rules
矯揉偽裝下的休閒俱樂部
For the wise men and the fools
他們能隨意批評閒雜人等
I got nothing , Ma, to live up to
除了狂熱崇拜偶像他們空談無物

然後道一句“上帝保佑他吧”
For them that must obey authority
當其中一人口吐火舌放聲歌唱
That they do not respect in any degree
口水飛濺在激烈競爭的唱詩隊中
Who despise their jobs, their destinies
就像社會之鉗扭曲變形
Speak jealously of them that are free
不在乎是否能升騰更高
Cultivate their flowers to be
但樂意讓你狠狠摔進洞裡
Nothing more than something they invest in
他加入其中

但我無意傷害或把錯誤
While some on principles baptized
歸咎於任何住在地下的人
To strict party platform ties
但沒有關係媽媽如果我無法取悅於他
Social clubs in drag disguise
老掉牙的女法官望著人們成對出入
Outsiders they can freely criticize
為性愛所束縛他們敢於
Tell nothing except who to idolize
推翻這些虛假的仁義道德辱罵和眼神
And then say God bless him
當金錢不再吱聲而是宣告

所謂猥褻罪誰又真的在意呢
While one who sings with his tongue on fire
宣傳部的人們一個個假仁假義
Gargles in the rat race choir
然而他們卻始終守衛著他們難以看清的這些玩意
Bent out of shape from society's pliers
安全感作為一個殺手的驕傲
Cares not to come up any higher
極其猛烈地吹醒這些沉睡的心
But rather get you down in the hole
於他們而言應該想想死神的真誠
That he's in
不要自然而然降臨頭頂

生活有時候必須孤獨自守
But I mean no harm nor put fault
我卻迎頭和孤獨撞了個滿懷
On anyone that lives in a vault
墳墓啊虛假的神啊我磨破了腳
But it's alright, Ma, if I can't please him
踩在那些裝扮得如此蹩腳的雜碎身上

倒立行走銬上手銬
Old lady judges watch people in pairs
用腿踢碎掙脫這些束縛
Limited in ***, they dare
說聲好吧我已經知足了你還能給我看看其它什麼嗎
To push fake morals, insult and stare
如果我苦苦思索的夢想一旦被看穿
While money doesn't talk, it swears
他們可能會將我推上斷頭台
Obscenity, who really cares
但這次沒關係啦媽媽那就是生活只是生活
Propaganda, all is phony

While them that defend what they cannot see
With a killer's pride, security
It blows the minds most bitterly
For them that think death's honesty
Won't fall upon them naturally
Life sometimes must get lonely

My eyes collide head-on with stuffed
Graveyards, false gods, I scuff
At pettiness which plays so rough
Walk upside-down inside handcuffs
Kick my legs to crash it off
Say okay, I have had enough, what else can you show me?

And if my thought-dreams could be seen
They'd probably put my head in a guillotine
But it's alright, Ma, it's life, and life only
