話說Octet專輯快一週年了耶，總覺得好像該做些什麼
UNDER THE BRIDGE
THERE’S A MONSTER
LURKING ON THE SURFACE OF YOUR MIND
ALL THE TIME
在
橋的底下
有著怪物
潛伏於你心靈的表面
無時無刻
橋是連接，是通道，是往來不同地方工具，網路也是一種橋樑
然後橋通常建於水上，還跟surface雙關
IT SPUTTERS SIGHS AND CRIES
RAVING IN GARBAGE TONGUES AND GRUNTS
這種嶄新的怪物
噴濺出哀鳴和抱怨
呢喃著垃圾話和胡扯
公告
PROVOCATIONS
挑釁
FABRICATIONS
製造
DEFAMATIONS
誹謗
感嘆
INDIGNATION
憤慨
AND POOR PUNCTUATION
和糟糕的標點符號
完全就是在背單字FABRICATIONS DEFAMATIONS
EXCLAMATIONS INDIGNATION
AND POOR PUNCTUATION
宣告挑釁
製造誹謗
感嘆憤慨
還標點糟糕的符號
喜歡
是不是無法面對面看見人，就會失去了對方也是真人的實感？
針鋒相對的傷害不同立場的他人是為了什麼？
不同的價值觀就如此地罪不可赦嗎？
為什麼不能溫和一點呢？
NEVER STICKS NOR STONES
THAT GET YOU
而非木棍與石頭
傷你最深。
Sticks and Stones - Wikipedia
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But words shall never hurt me.
『sticks and stones』引伸含義為為『言語無法傷害我』
他不同，卻又如此真實，讓人印象更深刻
物理的傷會好，會被體諒，但是那些言語
PUTRID AND DISEASED
DRIPPING FAT AND SICK
BULGING ASSCHEEK THICK
令人作嘔的
腐敗且病態
滴落脂肪和惡疾
臀瓣般臃腫
它噁心地、腐敗地、具傳染性地滴落著——像臀部線條一樣腫脹的——脂肪和疾病
意思有到就好
該睡了我們是用來形容豐滿(?)的臀部
但還是默默編輯了的KikiCHIP BAGS AND BEER CANS
CONDOMS, CIGARETTES
EVERY TIME YOU CHECK
YEAH
[MARVIN & TOBY]
THAT’S WHAT HAPPENS TO YOUR MIND
Marvin (吊人)
Henry (隱士)
IT DIGS DEEPER IN YOUR BRAIN
TRANSFORMING NEURAL PATHWAYS
WITH ITS TOXIC REFRAIN
THE PATH GETS BIGGER
THE PATH BECOMES A STREET
THE STREET BECOMES A SUPERWIDE SUPERDUMB SUPERHIGHWAY
THE FOREST LOGGED
FILLED WITH CHAINSTORES AND SMOG
MIGRAINE SUNLIGHT SUFFOCATES YOU
MUFFLERS AND HORNS
AND STUPID BAD GENERIC POP
SPITTING OUT YOUR SHITTY SPEAKERS
NO BASS
JUST THE DIN OF TINNY TREBLE
BITIN’ YOUR TEETH ON THE TINFOIL METAL
AND STICKY GUNKED-UP BIG GULP CUPS
STREWN ON THE SHOTGUN FLOOR
STREWN ALL ABOUT THE INSIDE OF YOUR MIND
ALL THE TIME
PRACTICING YOUR IRONY AND OUTRAGE
ON A SCRAPING VIOLIN
10,000 HOURS OF SHRIEKING MALNUTRITION
YOUR PRACTICE MAKES YOU MASTER OF THE MONSTER
YOUR MIND GOES DARK AND STRANGE
AND YOU FALL APART
LIKE A NAKED MANNEQUIN
CLATTERING TO THE FLOOR
OR A CRACKED ILLUMINATI
OR A STUBBORN CRAZY CODGER
I AM SANE
AND I AM TELLING YOU, THE MONSTER IS REAL
[ALL]
AND WE ARE IN TROUBLE
OH HOW IT TEASES ITS ALLURE
WILL THE MONSTER FINALLY CHARGE AND GOUGE AND GORGE?
WILL THE MONSTER FINALLY GO TOO FAR?
而你永遠不確定
牠會如何誘騙你
怪物會不會指控、人肉、生吞你？
怪物會不會超出正軌？
