【歌詞翻譯】Stone Sour – Through glass

I’m looking at you through the glass
我正透過玻璃看著你(註1)
Don’t know how much time has passed
不知道消逝了多少時間
Oh God, it feels like forever
喔天啊，這感覺像會永無止盡
But no one ever tells you that forever feels like home
但從來沒有人告訴你永恆就像是
Sitting all alone inside your head
孤獨的深鎖在自己的世界裡

‘Cause I’m looking at you through the glass
因為我正透過玻璃看著你
Don’t know how much time has passed
不知道流逝了多少的時間
All I know is that it feels like forever
我只知道這刻像會永遠如此
When no one ever tells you that forever feels like home
當沒有人來告訴你永恆就像是
Sitting all alone inside your head
寂寞地把自己深鎖在自己的腦海裡
How do you feel? That is the question
你的感覺如何？這才是我想問的問題
But I forget, you don’t expect an easy answer
但我忘了你不會給出簡單的答案
When something like a soul becomes initialized
當一些如靈魂一般重要的事情被回歸初始
And folded up like paper dolls and little notes
然後變得細碎微不足道
You can’t expect a bit of hope
你便無法再抱持任何希望
And while you’re outside looking in
所以當你置身事外看著這些發生
Describing what you see
試圖理解描述你所看到的
Remember what you’re staring at is me
請記得，你正凝視著的是我

‘Cause I’m looking at you through the glass
因為我正透過玻璃看著你
Don’t know how much time has passed
不知不覺時間消逝而去
All I know is that it feels like forever
只感覺這一切就像永無止盡
When no one ever tells you that forever feels like home
從沒有人告訴過你永恆感覺
Sitting all alone inside your head
像是寂寞的深鎖在自己世界裡

How much is real? So much to question
有多少是真實？我有太多疑問
An epidemic of the mannequins
一股虛偽制式的潮流
Contaminating everything
正污染所有一切
When thought came from the heart
當心中出現任何想法
It never did right from the start
卻總是把它搞砸
Just listen to the noises
看看這些批評聲浪
(No more sad voices)
別再哀憐我

Before you tell yourself
在你告訴你自己
It’s just a different scene
這只是另一個不同的景色
Remember it’s just different from what you’ve seen
記得或許它只是不如你預期想見

I’m looking at you through the glass
我正透過玻璃看著你
Don’t know how much time has passed
不知道流逝了多少時間
And all I know is that it feels like forever
我只知道這感覺像是永無止盡
When no one ever tells you that forever feels like home
卻沒有人告訴你永恆的感覺會像是
Sitting all alone inside your head
孤獨的深鎖在自己的世界

And it’s the stars
就是這些璀璨的星群
The stars that shine for you
照亮著你
And it’s the stars
但同時也是這些星群
The stars that lie to you
欺騙著你

註1：玻璃（glass）的意象可能代表的是螢光幕，或鏡頭。歌手唱的是他（身為演藝人員）透過玻璃向外看。

這首〈Through Glass〉是Slipknot主唱Corey Taylor自己子團體Stone Sour的暢銷歌。猛一聽，會以為這是一首單戀的情歌，但仔細去品味之後才會發現，其實這是歌手對於表演界的剖析，成名的五光十色縱使容易令人沈醉，但同時也會帶來許多的悲哀。群眾的隨波逐流，可以讓你一夜成名，也可以讓你身敗名裂。
