I ran from my house that cannot contain me 我从屋里跑不能包含我

From the man that I cannot keep 从人，我不能让

From my mother who haunts me, even though she's gone 从我的母亲谁困扰着我，虽然她走了

From my daughter that never sleeps 从我女儿的不夜城

I ran from the noise and the silence 我从喧闹与寂静跑

From the traffic on the streets 从街道上的交通

   

I ran to the treetops, I ran to the sky 我跑到了树梢，我跑到天空

Out to the lake, into the rain that matted my hair 出湖，成纠结我的头发雨

And soaked my shoes and skin 浸泡我的鞋子和皮肤

Hid my tears, hid my fears 躲在我的眼泪，躲在我的恐惧

   

I ran to the forest, I ran to the trees 我跑到森林里，我跑到了树

I ran and I ran, I was looking for me 我跑，我跑，我一直在寻找我

   

I ran past the churches and the crooked old mailbox 我跑过去的教堂和老歪邮箱

Past the apple orchards and the lady that never talks 过去的苹果园和夫人从未会谈

Up into the hills, I ran to the cemetery 成小山，我跑到墓地

And held my breath, and thought about your death 而屏住了呼吸，以为你死

   

I ran to the lake, up into the hills 我跑到湖边，成山

I ran and I ran, I'm looking there still 我跑，我跑，我期待仍有

And I saw the crumbling tombstones 我又看见了摇摇欲坠的墓碑

All forgotten names 所有被遗忘的名字

   

I tasted the rain, I tasted my tears 我尝了雨，我尝了我的眼泪

I cursed the angels, I tasted my fears 我诅咒天使，我尝了我的恐惧

   

And the ground gave way beneath my feet 与地面让位在我脚下

And the earth took me in her arms 和地球把我抱在怀里

Leaves covered my face 叶子遮住了我的脸

Ants marched across my back 蚂蚁在我的后面前进

Black sky opened up, blinding me 黑色的天空打开了，我失明

   

I ran to the forest, I ran to the trees 我跑到森林里，我跑到了树

I ran and I ran, I was looking for me 我跑，我跑，我一直在寻找我

I ran to the lakes and up to the hill 我跑到湖上山

I ran and I ran, I'm looking there still 我跑，我跑，我期待仍有

   

And I smelled her burning flesh 我闻到了她烧的肉

Her rotting bones 她的尸骨腐烂

Her decay 她的衰

   

I ran and I ran 我跑，我跑

I'm still running away 我还在逃跑
