《暮光之城》原聲音樂:Flightless Bird折翼之鳥

這首《Flightless Bird,American Mouth》是一首憂傷的“美國夢”的挽歌，出自專輯《The Shepherd‘s Dog》，但令這首歌聲名鵲起，重煥生機的卻是電影《暮光之城》（Twilight），歌曲被用在了影片結尾舞會一幕，Bella Edward 踏著這溫柔的樂曲，相擁輕舞..........

I was a quick wet boy 我曾是個愛哭的男孩

Diving too deep for coins 苦苦積攢著那些硬幣

All of your street light eyes 而你們冷酷漠然的眼神

Wide on my plastic toys 打量著我的塑料玩具

And when the cops closed the fair 而警察已關起集市

I cut my long baby hair 我剪掉了我幼稚的長發

Stole me a dog-eared map 破舊卷角的地圖被偷了

And called for you everywhere 于是我四處呼喚你的名字

Have I found you? 我找到你了嗎?

Flightless bird, 折翼之鳥,

jealous, 充滿著妒忌

weeping 回蕩著哭泣

Or lost you? 亦或失去了你,

American mouth 美好的夢?

Big pill looming 遺失的美好,正漸漸清晰

Now I’m a fat house cat 現在的我, 像只肥胖的家貓

Nursing my sore blunt tongue 舔著疼痛僵硬的舌頭

Watching the warm poison rats 看著剛被毒死的老鼠

Curl through the wide fence cracks 卷縮著穿過籬笆的縫隙

Pissing on magazine photos 唾棄雜志上的照片

Those fishing lures 把這些誘惑

thrown in the cold and clean 扔進冰冷純凈的

Blood of Christ mountain stream 基督山澗深處

Have I found you? 我找到你了嗎?

Flightless bird, 折翼之鳥,

brown hair bleeding 棕色的羽翼滴落鮮血

Or lost you? 我失去你了嗎?

American mouth 美好的夢

Big pill 遺失的美好

stuck going down 一直深深地烙印在心中
