Written by：Stewart Henderson/Paul Savage/Emma Pollock/Alun Woodward

Salt in my eyes stinging my brain
眼中盐分灼烧着我的理智
It's been forty odd days since we've been clean
我们戒断清醒已四十余日
Crawl in the cave looking for light
匍匐洞穴深处寻觅微光
But the ceiling descends and still it's dark
可岩顶不断压坠 黑暗依旧
Hey there don't declare optimist it's clear you resist
别宣称乐观 你分明在抗拒
I try all the time to get it right and still it persists
我竭力修正 错误却如影随形
Touched that you think I'm a heartless old crank
你视我为铁石心肠的老顽固
And there's things that I've done to convict me of that
那些所作所为 确凿印证这点
Try to look out eyes straight and fast
试图直视前方 目光坚定而迅疾
But I've struggled of late my head in the past
但我近来深陷挣扎 思绪总困于往昔
Hey there don't despair get in the cave
嘿 别灰心 快躲进这避风港里
We live day and night to find the right sort of light
我们昼夜寻觅 只为那束指引的光明
Bored of the truth I return to my youth
厌倦了真相 我选择逃回年少时光
Drinking breaker at night in the cold duchess light
寒夜独饮 破碎酒瓶映着冷冽月光
Out by the fence there's a shout that I'm dead
围栏外传来呼喊 说我已无生还可能
Get me out of this place I'll take casuals another day
带我离开此地 改日再续这寻常人生
All gates are locked there's no way I can walk
所有大门紧锁 我无路可走
And the paths that I took led me into the swamp
曾经选择的道路 将我引入沼泽深处
Even this trusty accomplice gets rusty
就连最可靠的伙伴 也渐渐生锈
I'm not being cruel but your brain never ruled
并非我残忍 而是你从未用理智思考
I've seen the trauma of lives that were squandered
我目睹过虚度光阴带来的创伤
But I'm not to blame for showing restraint
但克制自己并非我的过错
Hey there don't declare optimist
别轻易宣称我是乐观主义者
I try every night to get it right
每个夜晚我都在努力寻找正确的方向
And still
然而
No path of truth led me where I could walk
真理之路从未指引我前行
But the lies that I made led me out of the swamp
唯有自欺的谎言 助我逃离泥沼
