Soul Asylum - Runaway Train

Oasis

这是首描写失踪儿童问题的作品，在清脆干净的吉他、不动声色的鼓点伴奏下，主唱皮尔纳沧桑沙哑的嗓音从喉底或者说从心底吟出最深沉的悲愤与控诉，悲伤和愤怒的极至通常不是血泪泣诉或狂吼一气，而是近乎平和的，淡淡的陈述，而这却更容易渗入听者的心底。心随着略含悲意的音乐起伏，似乎看到了失去亲生儿女的母亲那无助、失神的目光。

Call U up in the middle of the night.
Like a firefly without a light.
U were there like a blowtorch burning.
I was a key that could use a little turning.
So tired that I couldn't even sleep.
So many secrets I couldn't keep.
Promised myself I wouldn't weep.
One more promise I couldn't keep.
It seems no one can help me now.
I'm in too deep.
There's no way out.
This time I have really led myself astray.
Runaway train never going back.
Wrong way on a one way track.
Seems like I should be getting somewhere.
Somehow I'm neither here nor there.
Can U help me remember how to smile.
Make it somehow all seem worthwhile.
How on earth did I get so jaded.
Life's mystery seems so faded.
I can go where no one else can go.
I know what no one else knows.
Here I'm just drowning in the rain.
Wtih a ticket 4 a runaway train.
Everything is cut and dry.
Day & night,earth & sky.
Somehow I just don't believe it.
Runaway train never going back.
Wrong way on a one way track.
Seems like I should be getting somewhere.
Somehow I'm neither here nor there.
Bought a ticket 4 a runaway train.
Like a madman laughing at the rain.
Little out of touch,little insane.
Just easier than dealing with the pain.
Runaway train never going back.
Wrong way on a one way track.
Seems like I should be getting somewhere.
Somehow I'm neither here nor there.
Runaway train never coming back.
Urnaway train tearing up the track.
Runaway train buring in my veins.
Runaway but it always seems the same.
