一想到那尚未被回忆淹没的时光,我的心就发软
我丝毫没有奉劝诸位“人生路上要尽量多吃苦头”的意思。老实说,我觉得假如不吃苦头就能蒙混过关,当然是不吃更好。毫无疑问,吃苦受难绝不是乐事一桩,只怕还有人因此一蹶不振,再也无法重整旗鼓。不过,假如您此时此刻刚好陷入了困境,正饱受折磨,那么我很想告诉您:“尽管眼下十分艰难,可日后这段经历说不定就会开花结果。——村上春树《我的职业是小说家》

展开歌词
Had to keep on till a line went empty
不得不一路走到黑
Had to keep on till it came on wide
不得不待到拨云见日
Keep on burnin' when the fire was dying
苟延残喘到生命最后一刻
Till I burn it down...
直到我烧掉这带罪的灵魂
I've been lookin' on the dark side
我曾向着罪孽看齐
I don't know what I've thought I could find
漫无目的缥缈在世上
Now there's a stranger in the mirror
直到一个陌生的脸孔出现在这面镜子上
Lookin' back at me, he says it's a payback time
他回头看向我说“时辰到了”
I could drift away so easy to that old familiar place
我本可以轻松地去往那熟悉的老地方
But it's a high price to pay
但现在这代价我承受不起
I've ran out of excuses and it's hard to face
我尽可能地逃避这“救赎”,因为它实在太难面对
But I believe I've lost my way
但唯一明确的就是我迷失方向
I wouldn't cut out to be alone
如果有来生,我不会独自行走世间
But I keep findin' myself alone
但此生,我一直孤独地寻找自我
I wear the silence like an overcoat
沉默像巨大的风衣一般罩住我的内心
And the nightmare lingers on
还有那噩梦萦绕着我
I had a dream about a sister who lived alone since gone away
我梦到一个死前曾独自居住的女信徒
I reached out and touched her face
梦到我伸手去触碰她的脸
Then she burr to read in silence and she began to pray
然后她有气无力地诵读圣经接着开始祈祷
And I knew I'd lost my way
那时我明白回头已然太晚
And I knew I'd lost my way
那时我明白彼岸太过遥远
回忆
文/本尼·安德森
往事的回忆有时在我心中浮现
而我如今处境比以前强多了
回首往事
我常常去看牙科医生
我的自来水笔总是漏水
有一次我怀疑
我的自行车被偷走
我曾对未来忧心忡忡
未来,如今看起来,
原来很不错
而我一想到
我那尚未被回忆淹没的时光
我的心就发软。
