[00:00:18] A restlessness took hold my brain

[00:00:22] 心头焦虑挥之不去

[00:00:22] And questions

[00:00:23] 各种各样的问题

[00:00:23] I could not hold back

[00:00:26] 没法回避不去想

[00:00:26] An orange monkey on a chain

[00:00:30] 铁链上橙色的猴子

[00:00:30] On a bleak uneven track

[00:00:34] 在荒凉崎岖的小路

[00:00:34] Told me that to understand

[00:00:38] 记忆告诉我 要深刻理解

[00:00:38] You must travel back time

[00:00:42] 就必须回到过去

[00:00:42] I took a plane to a forein land

[00:00:45] 乘航班飞往陌生土地

[00:00:45] And said

[00:00:46] 告诉自己

[00:00:46] I'll write down what I find

[00:01:02] 我会写下我的新发现

[00:01:02] Beneath a mountain's jagged shelves

[00:01:06] 在山脉崎岖不平的岩石下

[00:01:06] Cloacked with snow and shadows sheer

[00:01:10] 终年是积雪和巨大的阴影

[00:01:10] Plates tipped up upon themselves

[00:01:14] 大陆板块碰撞挤压的结果

[00:01:14] The pain of fifty million years

[00:01:18] 五千万年的伤痛

[00:01:18] And mules and goats were running wild

[00:01:22] 骡子和山羊狂奔

[00:01:22] A happy chaos carried on

[00:01:25] 乱世和逍遥同在

[00:01:25] And old men and young boys smiled

[00:01:30] 老人和孩子笑着

[00:01:30] And worked until the day was gone

[00:01:46] 牧牛马直到日落

[00:01:46] Packs of sandy-coloured dogs

[00:01:50] 一群沙色的狗

[00:01:50] Walked streets that looked like building sites

[00:01:54] 在街上悠闲地走着 街道两旁是破旧的房屋

[00:01:54] But piles of rocks and dust and smog

[00:01:58] 但这岩石 灰尘和烟雾

[00:01:58] Could not hold block out a different light

[00:02:02] 也抵挡不了岁月的变迁

[00:02:02] When I returned

[00:02:03] 当我再次回到这里

[00:02:03] I ran to meet

[00:02:05] 偶然遇见那一只猴

[00:02:05] The monkey but his face had changed

[00:02:10] 它的神色已经改变

[00:02:10] He stood before me on two feet

[00:02:13] 就站在我面前两英尺的地方

[00:02:13] The track was now a motorway

[00:02:18] 那条小路也已然变成了公路
