歌词

I think I know what you mean but watch what you say

'cause they'll be try to knock you down in some way

Sometimes it feels like the world is falling asleep

How do you wake someone up from inside a dream?

Your mind would wander and searched for its place in the night

Your body followed this feeling like following light

Once that your music was born it followed you 'round

And then it gave your activities meaning and let you be loud

You're sad but you smile

It not in your eyes

Your eyeballs won't change

It's the muscles around your eyes

An egg to fertilize

A pulse to stabilize

A body to deodorize

A life to scrutinize

A child to criticize

Young adults to modernize

Citizens to terrorize

Generations to desensitize

You're dreams are sweet and obsessed

And your overworked

You're overtaken by visions of being overlooked

How disappointed would D.(ead) I.(dealistic) D.(esperate) I.(nventor) P.(ioneer) P.(hilosophers)

Be to see such power in our hands all wasted on greed

Am I a prisoner to instincts?

Or do my thoughts just live

As free and detached

As boats to the dock?

Just like when music was born

And detached from your heart

Is your free time to free minds

Or for falling apart?

Night after night

You turn out the light

You don't fall asleep right away

"Are we... are we done?"

A desk to organize

A product to advertise

A market to monopolize

Movie stars you idolize

Leaders to scandalize

Enemies to neutralize

No time to apologize

Fury to tranquilize

Weapons to synchronize

Cities to vapor-i

我想我懂你的意思但瞧瞧你说了些什么

也不想想他们会轻而易举把你干掉

有时那感觉就像这世界睡着了

你又怎能从梦中把某人唤醒?

你的思想将徘徊游荡在夜中找寻它的住处

你的身体跟着那感觉就像跟着一束光

一旦你的音乐诞生就不会再离开你

它赋予你的行为意义并让你能够歌唱

你很悲伤但你笑了

笑容并非来自你的眼神

笑容并非诞生自你的眼球

笑容不过是你眼旁肌肉的运动

一只卵去受精

一支脉搏去稳定

一具躯体去清洁

一个人生去检查

一名小孩去批评

一群青年去现代化

一堆市民去统治

几代人去阉割敏感

你的梦想甜美而迷人

你已劳累过度

你那被人忽视的洞察力把你压倒

D.(死人)I.(理想主义者)D.(绝望者)I.(发明家)P.(开拓者)P.(哲人)将多么失望如果他们看到

那么多的力量在我们手中浪费于贪婪

我是个本能的囚徒吗?

还是说我的思想自由而独立

就像船之于码头?

就像音乐一旦诞生

它分离自你的心

你的时间是用于了自由的思考

还是用于了坠向地面?

夜复一夜

你把灯熄灭

你并不能马上睡着

“我们。。。我们做到了吗?”

一间部门去组织

一件产品去广告

一份市场去垄断

一些电影明星你崇拜

一群领袖去令人可耻

一堆敌人去使之中立

没有时间再用来辩解

一道愤怒去镇静

一堆武器去校正

一群城市去蒸(发)
