沉睡抑或醒来

很喜欢这首歌，因为能找到共鸣。主要感慨一种对自我迷失与自我寻找的矛盾，歌词看似简单易懂，却承载了深沉的情感。
单看歌词，或许会显得有些苍白无力，无病呻吟。曲却做到了画龙点睛之笔，开场悠远沙哑的黑人嗓音，到后来激昂的电音效果，将这种痛苦的矛盾诠释到极致，给人一种酣畅淋漓的痛快感。但这远远不够，最终再次于Aloe Blacc高亢的，不断重复的那句"didn't know i was lost"谢幕，曲终人散，却给人余音绕梁之感，以及深深的沉思。

这是我自己翻译的歌词，我的理解。


在黑暗中探寻
随心随性
未知旅途的终点
却能即刻启程
Feeling my way through the darkness
Guided by a beating heart
I can’t tell where the journey will end
But I know where it starts

人们总因年少而自感无知
无知地沉浸梦里
沉睡开启时间沙漏
可我不曾顾及于此
They tell me I’m too young to understand
They say i'm caught up in a dream
Well life will pass me by if I don’t open up my eyes
Well that’s fine by me

就当一切尘埃落定再将我唤醒
一切都将沉淀于岁月，沉淀于心
我不断寻觅自己
却不知早已迷失
So wake me up when it’s all over
When I’m wiser and I’m older
All this time I was finding myself
And I didn’t know I was lost


想要感知世界的深沉
却无能为力
但愿走遍天涯海角
却空作幻想
奢望青春永驻
不惧死亡
人生如戏
真爱至上
I tried carrying the weight of the world
But I only have two hands
I hope I get the chance to travel the world
And I don’t have any plans
I wish that I could stay forever this young
Not afraid to close my eyes
Life’s a game made for everyone
And love is a prize


就当一切尘埃落定再将我唤醒
一切都将沉淀于岁月，沉淀于心
我不断寻觅自己
却不知早已迷失
So wake me up when it’s all over
When I’m wiser and I’m older
All this time I was finding myself
And I didn’t know I was lost
