歌词
A restlessness took hold my brain
有种焦虑在我心头
And questions
有许多问题
I could not hold back
我忍不住去回想
An orange monkey on a chain
链上的橙色小猴
荒凉崎岖的小路
On a bleak uneven track
它告诉我
你必须回到过去
Told me that to understand
我乘上国外航班
You must travel back time
写下
I took a plane to a forein land
我会记下我所找到的一切
And said
白雪皑皑的山脉下(阿富汗山区)
I'll write down what I find
终年是积雪和阴影
板块碰撞铸成一切(亚欧和印度板块)
Beneath a mountain's jagged shelves
五千万年前的伤痛
骡子和山羊狂奔
Cloacked with snow and shadows sheer
幸福与混乱同行
老人和孩子笑了
Plates tipped up upon themselves
直到很多年过后
The pain of fifty million years
一群沙色狗
And mules and goats were running wild
街道旁的破旧房屋
A happy chaos carried on
但岩石灰尘和烟雾
And old men and young boys smiled
挡不住不同的光线
And worked until the day was gone
当我回来时
我跑去会面
Packs of sandy-coloured dogs
猴子还在但神色已变
Walked streets that looked like building sites
它直立在我的面前
小路已成为公路
But piles of rocks and dust and smog
Could not hold block out a different light
When I returned
I ran to meet
The monkey but his face had changed
He stood before me on two feet
The track was now a motorway
