Paroles et traduction 黃宥傑 - 影形人

影形人

這是我嗎? 我想應該是吧!?
對著鏡子我總自問自答 沒人回答
踩著前進步伐 卻陷進了流沙
我不敢呼救 也不敢掙扎

十字路口 有個人很像我
相似面孔差不多的穿著 認真生活
靈魂掏空出走 快樂被誰沒收
弄丟了我 換虛偽的剎那
這是我要的嗎?

我害怕變成影形人盲目追逐
追逐著不屬於我複製的幸福
愈是投入 愈是麻木
若花和草都長成 供人仰望的大樹
誰看得見蝴蝶飛舞

我不要變成影形人失速迷路
迷路在陽光背後最冷的山谷
愈想逃出 愈像繞路
一層一層的濃霧 將夢想牢牢困住
不給我回家的地圖

懂了能做真的自己 是多麼 昂貴的禮物

Darkroom Shadowed Figure

Is it me? I think it must be, right?
I question myself while looking in the mirror, and no one answers
As I take steps forward, I sink into quicksand
I'm afraid to call for help. I'm afraid to struggle

At the crossroads, there is a man who looks just like me
a similar face and similar clothes, living diligently
His soul is hollow and empty, he's lost his joy
Trading me in for a false moment
Is this what I wanted?

I'm terrified of becoming a shadow figure, blindly chasing after
chasing after an ideal of happiness that isn't mine
The more I give, the more numb I become
When all flowers and grass grow tall like trees, to be looked up to
Who notices when butterflies flutter by ?

I don't want to become a shadow figure, lost and adrift
lost in the coldest valley behind the sunlight
The more I try to escape, the more I wander in circles
Layer upon layer of dense fog, trapping my dreams
Without giving me a map back home

I've come to understand how precious a gift it is
