Why do I deserve the science to feel better about you
At a loss I lost my cool
I denied that I found you
I tried to be a basket case
I did not surprise you
I'm trying to find a signal fire
Let me know when I should move
But you amplified in the silence
Justified in the way you make me bruise
Magnified in the science
Anatomically proved that you don't need me
Why do I desire the space
I was mourning after you
I was lost and lost my shape
There was nothing I could do
I don't want to waste away
It was all I gave to you
Take me back and take my place
I will rise right up for you
But you amplified in the silence
Justified in the way you make me bruise
Magnified in the science
Anatomically proved that you don't need me
All the while you waste away you're asking
Did I really need another one to take me down
Everybody knows it's something that you had to live with darling
Nobody's gonna tear you down now
There is nothing you keep there is only your reflection
There was nothing but quiet retractions
And families pleading don't look in that cabinet
There's far more bad than there's good
I don't know how it got there
That was something your father had burned in me
Twenty hours out of Homestake eternity
You can go anywhere but you are where you came from
Little girl you are cursed by my ancestry
There is nothing but darkness and agony
I can not only see but you stopped me from blinking
Let me watch you as close as a memory
Let me hold you above all the misery
Let me open my eyes and be glad that I got here
现在关上窗
文/罗伯特·佛罗斯特，译/徐家祯
现在关上窗，
让田野寂静一片；
要是树木一定得摆动，
那么就让它们摇得安静寂然。
现在不会再有鸟儿歌唱，
纵使有，也只能是我的失算。
要等沼泽苏醒，
还有很长时间；
要等最早的鸟儿飞来，
也要再过很多天。
所以关上窗户不去听那风声，
而窗外风儿的骚动却无所不见。
Now Close the Windows
Now close the windows and hush all the fields:
If the trees must, let them silently toss;
No bird is singing now, and if there is,
Be it my loss.
It will be long ere the marshes resume,
I will be long ere the earliest bird:
So close the windows and not hear the wind,
But see all wind-stirred.
