I am out here studying stones 我在这里学习的石头

Trying to learn to be less alive 努力学习要少活

Using all of my will 用我所有的意志

To keep very still 为了保持非常安静

Still even on the inside 仍连在里面

I've cut all of the pertinent wires 我剪了所有相关的电线

So my eyes can't make that connection 所以，我的眼睛不能作出这样的连接

I am holding my breath 我抱着我的呼吸

I am feigning my death 我假装我的死亡

When I'm looking in your direction 当我在寻找你的方向

   

'Course numb is an old hat “当然麻木是一顶旧帽子

Old as my oldest memories 老象我最早的记忆

See that one's my mother 看到自己的妈妈

And that one's my father 而且，一个是我的父亲

And that one in the hat, that's me 和一个在帽子，这是我

It's a skill I'd hoped to abandon 这是一个技能我会希望放弃

When I got out on the open road 当我离开​​的开放之路

But any more pent up emotion 但更多被压抑的情感

And I think I'm gonna explode 我想我会爆炸

   

There's never been an endeavor so strange 从未有一种努力好奇怪

As trying to slow the blood in my veins 至于试图减缓在我的静脉血液

To keep my face blank 为了让我的脸空白

As a stone that just sank 如石头，仅仅沉没

Until not a ripple remains 直到没有一丝涟漪遗体

I am high above the tree line 我是高树线以上

Sitting cross legged on the ground 坐在盘腿在地上

When all of the forbidden fruit has fallen and rotted 当所有的禁果的下降和腐烂

That's when I'm gonna come down 这时候，我会回落

   

'Course numb is an old hat “当然麻木是一顶旧帽子

Old as my oldest memories 老象我最早的记忆

See that one's my mother 看到自己的妈妈

And that one's my father 而且，一个是我的父亲

And that one in the hat, that's me 和一个在帽子，这是我

It's a skill I'd hoped to abandon 这是一个技能我会希望放弃

When I got out on the open road 当我离开​​的开放之路

But any more pent up emotion 但更多被压抑的情感

And I think I'm gonna explode 我想我会爆炸
