Текст и перевод песни Dear Jane - 羽毛鱗刺

羽毛鱗刺

往日多少次語無倫次
也誇過海口輕率去說大志
最後當天意未如人意
會否已聰敏得識去靠著邊
問成就 何日相等於奮鬥
留下了萬個傷口
慶幸還尚有
世上有 尚要打低的怪獸
原是我 已做了成人太久
付上這刻的所有
沒有空想得太透
人大了 際遇裡何曾失守
我不懂得深究
趁尚有一身羽毛鱗刺
替失意找生天可再次遇險
卻未曲解過自由原意
滿口慨嘆著唏噓會變弱點
花半天 懷念青春的勸勉
誰用這造作詩篇
慶幸還尚有
世上有 尚要打低的怪獸
原是我 已做了成人太久
付上這刻的所有
沒有空想得太透
人大了 際遇裡何曾失守
我不懂得深究
有幾多資格
實際很失格
太講蝕與賺
早已知 成熟不起不要臉
誰又顧慮過褒貶
慶幸還尚有
世上有 尚要打低的怪獸
原是我 已做了成人太久
付上這刻的所有
沒有空想得太透
人大了 有沒有搖楊擺柳
我都不深究
不深究 別過早統統看透
如沒有 帶睿智隨年歲走
亦信一生不生銹
但這廢話早已夠
誰話過 靠道理能尋出口
我不需這優秀

Feathers, Scales and Thorns

How many times in the past did I say whatever came to mind
And boasted arrogantly about my lofty ambitions
But in the end, when fate didn't go my way
Did I become intelligent enough to know how to play it safe?
I wonder when my achievements will ever match my efforts
You left behind countless wounds
But I'm grateful that there's still
In this world, monsters that need to be defeated
It was me who had been an adult for too long
I paid for this moment with everything I had
I didn't have the luxury to think too deeply
When you grow up, do you ever lose your sense of adventure?
I don't know how to dig deeper
While I still have my feathers, scales and thorns
I will seek a new life for my failures, even if it means facing danger again
Yet I have never misunderstood the true meaning of freedom
Complaining and sighing out loud will only weaken me
I spend half a day reminiscing about the advice of my youth
Who uses these artificial verses?
I'm grateful that there's still
In this world, monsters that need to be defeated
It was me who had been an adult for too long
I paid for this moment with everything I had
I didn't have the luxury to think too deeply
When you grow up, do you ever lose your sense of adventure?
I don't know how to think deeper
How much do I really deserve?
In reality, I'm not qualified at all
I talk too much about losses and gains
I've known for a long time that maturity means being shameless
Who cares about praise or criticism?
But I'm grateful that there's still
In this world, monsters that need to be defeated
It was me who had been an adult for too long
I paid for this moment with everything I had
I didn't have the luxury to think too deeply
When you grow up, do you ever lose your sense of adventure?
I don't know how to think deeper
Don't rush to see through everything too soon
If you don't bring wisdom with you as you age
Then I believe you will never rust in your life
But this nonsense is enough already
Who said that you can find a way out through reason?
I don't need this kind of perfection
