[Pre-Song]

I was in the winter of my life

我活在我生命的凜冬

And the men I met along the road were my only summer

而途經結識的男人是我惟一溽暑

At night I fell asleep with visions of myself dancing and laughing and crying with them

夜裏我陷入沈睡並夢見我自己舞著 笑著 並同他們哭泣著

Three years down the line of being on an endless world tour and my memories of them were the only things that sustained me

在這無止無休的世界巡遊三年 陪伴我的 惟有和他們相處的記憶

And my only real happy times

以及我真正快樂的時光

I was a singer

我曾是名歌手

Not a very popular one

並不是特別有名氣的

I once had dreams of becoming a beautiful poet

我從前有過出脫為美麗詩人的夢

But upon an unfortunate series of events saw those dreams dashed and divided like a million stars in the night sky

卻在一系列不幸的事件下看見 夢在夜空中迎頭撞上 分裂為萬千星點

That I wished on over and over again, sparkling and broken

在那破碎而璀璨下 我一遍又一遍許著愿

But I didn’t really mind because I knew that it takes getting everything you ever wanted and then losing it to know what true freedom is

但我並不很介意 因為我曉得這將意味著消耗你擁有的一切 才能體認真正的自由

When the people I used to know found out what I had been doing how I had been living, they asked me why, but there’s no use in talking to people who have a home

當我的舊識得知我的職業 我的生活方式 他們表示不解 但向有家的人解釋根本無效

They have no idea what its like to seek safety in other people

他們對尋求他人的庇護是一點不懂得

For home to be wherever you lie your head

所謂的家 是你想法的容身之處

I was always an unusual girl

我從來是非同凡響的女孩

My mother told me that I had a chameleon soul

我母親說我的靈魂如變色龍般

No moral compass pointing due north

無法指往北方的心海羅盤

No fixed personality

沒定神的個性

Just an inner indecisiveness that was as wide and as wavering as the ocean

優柔寡斷的內在不過是如潮如水的海平面

And if I said I didn’t plan for it to turn out this way I’d be lying

而要說我沒計畫如此我便是在撒謊

Because I was born to be the other woman

因為我生來就得做第三者

Who belonged to no one

不屬於任何人

Who belonged to everyone

屬於所有人

Who had nothing

得不到一切

Who wanted everything

又想得到一切

With a fire for every experience and an obsession for freedom that terrified me to the point that I couldn’t even talk about it

燃起熱忱以及對自由的迷戀 驚駭我到難以表達的程度

And pushed me to a nomadic point of madness that both dazzled and dizzied me

把我推向那刺眼而眩目而近似發狂的游牧境地
