歌词
Go to the movies.
独自去看看电影
Where it’s dark and soothing, alone in your seat amidst a fleeting community.
影院里光线昏暗却能抚慰人心,就那么独坐在自己的位置上,于人来人往处寻一方宁静
And then take yourself out dancing, to a club where no one knows you,
然后就去跳舞,去一个没人认识你的舞厅
stand on the outside of the floor until the lights convince you more and more and the music shows you.
先站在舞池外等候,直到自己渐渐被灯光打动,被音乐牵引
Dance like no one’s watching because they’re probably not.
接着便随心舞动,就像没人在看你一样,因为可能的确没人在看你
And if they are, assume it is with best human intentions.
如果真有人看你,就当他们是在致以最崇高的赞赏之意
The way bodies move genuinely to beats, is after-all, gorgeous and affecting.
毕竟,身体随着节奏本能地舞动时,真的非常美妙而又让人动容
Dance until you’re sweating.
就这么跳到汗流浃背
And beads of perspiration remind you of life’s best things.
一颗颗汗珠流下,你想起那些人生中最美好的东西
Down your back, like a book of blessings.
然后便躺下,像一本祝福之书
Go to the woods alone, and the trees and squirrels will watch for you.
独自去森林中走走吧,树先生树小姐,以及松鼠们都在那儿等着你
Go to an unfamiliar city, roam the streets,
独自去一个陌生的城市,游走于陌生的街道
they are always statues to talk to,
城市中有高矮胖瘦的雕塑,可以去与他们攀谈
and benches made for sitting gives strangers a shared existence if only for a minute,
街边的长椅 能让素未谋面的人相遇并共处一阵, 哪怕只是一分钟
and these moments can be so uplifting and the conversation you get in by sitting alone on benches, might have never happened had you not been there by yourself.
这样的时刻总能带给人欢愉,若是你没有独自来过这样的地方,那些在长椅上与陌生人的对话,便根本不可能发生
Society is afraid of alone though.
可是社会中的人就是害怕独处
Like lonely hearts are wasting away in basements.
好像 内心孤独就意味着要待在地下室里日渐萎靡似的
Like people must have problems if after awhile nobody is dating them.
好像 如果一段时间过后都没有人约会的话 这个人就肯定有毛病似的
But lonely is a freedom that breathes easy and weightless,
但是孤独是一种自由,一种毫不费力地呼吸的自由
and lonely is healing if you make it.
何况,如果你坚持过去,孤独的过程其实也就是疗愈的过程
或许出于爱自己的目的
Perhaps in the interest of loving oneself,
又或许是从幼儿园喊到高中的那些“花里胡哨的口号”仍萦绕在耳边
perhaps all those “sappy slogans” from pre-school over to high school groaning,
我们总是把孤独拒之门外
we’re tokens for holding the lonely at bay.
若在你脑海里你是快乐的
Cause if you’re happy in your head,
那么独处也是快乐的,一个人也无所谓
then solitude is blessed, and alone is okay.
没有人与你有相同的信念也不要紧
It’s okay if no one believes like you,
每一种经历都是独一无二的
all experience is unique,
没有人跟你有一样的突触
no one has the same synapses,
所以没人会跟你有一模一样的想法
can’t think like you,
所以放心好了
for this be relieved,
让平凡之事变得有趣起来
keeps things interesting,
生活的魔力,触手可及
life’s magic things in reach.
