Sunburn

In Ya Mellow Tone 7

Witness

歌词

Well is that cloud painted on the sky?

是谁画了这天上的云朵

Or is it simply where the canvas is blank?

又或者它只是恰巧待在那儿

I realize as I stand at the banks

站在河边我突然意识到

Of the river at the feet of the city

这座城市脚下的河流

Where I can see the bigger picture

才是更美的蓝图

And it triggers something deep within me

这深深的触动了我的心灵

Philly

费城

That would be the backdrop

就是那儿

Home to a million little cafes

坐拥百万家咖啡店

With lattes and laptops

咖啡跟笔记本是标配

And that's when I noticed it

我突然意识到

People only seem to leave their homes

人们背井离乡

To float in daydreams and postpone the loneliness

争先恐后来做大梦想家

But sunshine don't mean sunburn

但努力不一定会留下些什么

And a stone is only a stone if you're gonna leave them unturned

石头点石成金之前也只是块石头

Some learn just a little quicker than others

总有人会先懂得这道理

You've gotta live like you never knew the definition of it

去生活就像你从不知道为了什么

And sunshine don't mean sunburn

过程比结果重要

But a stone is only a stone if you're gonna leave them unturned

石头点石成金之前也只是块石头

Some learn just a little quicker than others

总有人会先懂得这道理

You've gotta love like you never knew the definition of it

去爱吧就像你从不知道为了什么

I met a girl at the Jersey Shore

我遇见了一个女孩

That wore clip on earrings and stumbled in high heels

大耳环高跟鞋蹒跚而行

And no I wasn't sober when she tapped me on the shoulder

她拍了一下我的肩膀当我烂醉如泥

But I told her that I thought her smile wasn't quite real

但我告诉她她的笑容美得像梦一样

And it must have been the drinks

我一定是醉了

Cause I ain't that smooth

我才没那么油嘴滑舌

Well it could have been the ink

好吧也许是因为纹身

She had a few tattoos

她的纹身太多了

But dude it's hard to find a woman at a cover band bar

但是小老弟乐队酒吧有个女的就不错了

That prefers a conversation to another man's car

看上去她跟旁边的男的更聊得来

On the real

老实说

And maybe all she wanted was a cigarette

或许她只是想要借个火

Or may she was just a shadow in my drunk dream

或者只是我的南柯一梦

She gave a name and a number that wasn't hers

她给我留的是别人的联系方式

Said we all got a shadow moonlighting as a sunbeam

她说月光下我们的影子照得发亮

And sunshine don't mean sunburn

经历比结果重要

But a stone is only a stone if you're gonna leave them unturned

石头点石成金之前也只是块石头

Some learn just a little quicker than others

总有人会先懂得这道理

You've gotta live like you never knew the definition of it

去生活就像你从不知道为了什么

And sunshine don't mean sunburn

经历比结果重要

But a stone is only a stone if you're gonna leave them unturned

石头点石成金之前也只是块石头

Some learn just a little quicker than others

总有人会先懂得这道理

You've gotta live like you never knew the definition of it

去生活就像你从不知道为了什么

They tell me sleep is the cousin of death

他们告诉我说睡眠跟死亡脱不了干系

So I would guess that a dream is the daughter of sleep

所以我想梦想是不是真的如梦一场啊

Sometimes I wonder whether Witness even exists

也没人给个说法

Or if it's just a dream that was caught in the beat

又或者是我们叛逆才有了梦想

They're like kid, you got it going on

那需要一些赤子之心你知道的

Tell me that my flow is strong

来告诉我我的flow很强

Now I'm in the basement til the break of dawn

在地下室一练练到天亮

Making songs

写歌全TM是饶舌说唱

Seeking validation from the Hip Hop heads

从嘻哈狗那试图获得阿谀

Like the praise and adulation is the only thing I got left

只想要听到胡说赞美言语

But on the surface the water appears still

一切表面看上去风平浪静

Unaffected by the children skipping stones on it's skin

不受一点孩童嬉戏的引力

Sometimes I bet it wishes it could just disappear

我敢打赌它宁愿自己消失

Like a feather in the city being blown by the wind

就像轻易被风带走的羽毛

But sunshine don't mean sunburn

尝试过比结果重要

And a stone is only a stone if you're gonna leave them unturned

石头点石成金之前也只是块石头

Some learn just a little quicker than others

总有人会先懂得这道理

You've gotta live like you never knew the definition of it

去生活就像你从不知道为了什么

And sunshine don't mean sunburn

过程比结果重要

But a stone is only a stone if you're gonna leave them unturned

石头点石成金之前也只是块石头

Some learn just a little quicker than others

总有人会先懂得这道理

You've gotta love like you never knew the definition of it

去爱吧就像你从不知道为了什么
