Im trying to work things out
Im trying to comprehend
Am I the chance result
Of some great accident
I hear a rhythm call me
The echo of a grand design
I spend each night in the backyard
Staring up at the stars in the sky
我試著理清頭緒
試著去理解
我是某種大意外的巧合結果嗎
我聽見一首旋律在呼喚我
那是某種非凡設計的回音
我整晚站在後院
往上瞧著天空裡的繁星
I have another meeting today
With my new counselor
My mom will cry and say
I dont know what to do with her
Shes so unresponsive
I just cannot break through
She spends all night in the backyard
Staring up at the stars and the moon
我今天又和新的諮商師會晤
我的母親會哭著說:
「我不知道該拿她怎麼辦
她的反應如此遲鈍
我就是無法突破其心防
她整晚站在後院
往上瞧著繁星和月亮」
They have a chart and a graph
Of my despondency
They want to chart a path
For self-recovery
And want to know what Im thinking
What motivates my mood
To spend all night in the backyard
Staring up at the stars and the moon
他們用圖表和曲線圖
記錄我的沮喪程度
他們想將自我療癒的路徑
製成一張圖表
並且想知道我在想些什麼
是什麼動機促成我有興致
每晚在後院
站著往上瞧繁星和月亮
Maybe this was made for me
For lying on my back in the middle of a field
Maybe thats a selfish thought
Or maybe theres a loving God
也許我受造就是這樣
就是要躺在田地的正中央
也許這想法很自私
不過也許真有一位慈愛的上帝
Maybe I was made this way
To think and to reason and to question and to pray
And I have never prayed a lot
But maybe theres a loving God
也許我受造就是這樣
就是要思考、推斷、質疑、思考
而我向來不常禱告
可是也許真有一位慈愛的上帝
