1.Subdivisions

細分

Sprawling on the fringes of the city

In geometric order

An insulated border

In between the bright lights

And the far unlit unknown

蔓生在城市的邊緣

按照幾何學秩序

一個絕緣的邊緣

在明亮的燈火

以及未點燃的未知之間

Growing up it all seems so one-sided

Opinions all provided

The future pre-decided

Detached and subdivided

In the mass production zone

成長看起來是單方面的

給予所有的意見

未來被預先決定

分離的和細分的

在大規模生產地區

Nowhere is the dreamer

Or the misfit so alone

任何地方都沒有夢想家

如此孤獨，不適應環境

(Subdivisions)

In the high school halls

In the shopping malls

Conform or be cast out

(Subdivisions)

In the basement bars

In the backs of cars

Be cool or be cast out

（細分）

在高中的大廳

在購物中心

順從或者被驅逐

（細分）

在地下酒吧

在汽車后座

冷靜或者被驅逐

Any escape might help to smooth

The unattractive truth

But the suburbs have no charms to soothe

The restless dreams of youth

任何逃離可能有助於讓無力的真相平靜

但郊外沒有任何吸引力去平復你

青年的焦躁不安的夢

Drawn like moths we drift into the city

The timeless old attraction

Cruising for the action

Lit up like a firefly

Just to feel the living night

我們像飛蛾般不知不覺陷入城市

永恆的古老的吸引力

巡航的行動

像螢火蟲般點燃

只是為了感受活著的夜晚

Some will sell their dreams for small desires

Or lose the race to rats

Get caught in ticking traps

And start to dream of somewhere

To relax their restless flight

一些人會為了小慾望出售他們的夢想

或者輸掉與老鼠的賽跑

掉入陷阱

開始去幻想有個地方去放鬆他們不安分的鬥爭

Somewhere out of a memory

Of lighted streets on quiet nights

記憶之外的某地

在安靜的夜晚有照亮的街道

(Subdivisions)

In the high school halls

In the shopping malls

Conform or be cast out

(Subdivisions)

In the basement bars

In the backs of cars

Be cool or be cast out

（細分）

在高中的大廳

在購物中心

順從或者被驅逐

（細分）

在地下酒吧

在汽車后座

冷靜或者被驅逐

Any escape might help to smooth

The unattractive truth

But the suburbs have no charms to soothe

The restless dreams of youth

任何逃離可能有助於讓無力的真相平靜

但郊外沒有任何吸引力去平復你

青年的焦躁不安的夢

2.The Analog Kid

模擬的孩子

A hot a windy August afternoon

Has the trees in constant motion

With a flash of silver leaves

As theyre rockin in the breeze

一個燥熱有風的八月下午

有不斷運動的樹木

一束銀色的葉子

它們在微風中搖擺

The boy lies in the grass with

One blade stuck between his teeth

A vague sensation quickens in

His young and restless heart

And a bright and nameless vision

Has him longing to depart

男孩躺在草地上

一個刀片刺入他齒間

他年輕而不安的心臟有一個模糊的加速的感覺

一個善良而不可名狀的幻想

他渴望離開嗎

You move me, you move me

With your buildings and your eyes

Autumn woods and winter skies

You move me, you move me

Open sea and city lights

Busy streets and dizzy heights

You call me, you call me

你移動我，你移動我

你的建築和你的眼睛

秋天的樹木和冬天的天空

你移動我，你移動我

寬闊的大海和城市的燈光

繁忙的街頭和令人炫目的高度

你召喚我，你召喚我

The fawn eyed girl with sun browned legs

Dances on the edge of his dreams

And the voices in his ears

Like the music of the spheres

淺黃色眼睛的女孩有棕色的大腿

在他的夢想邊緣舞蹈

他耳中的聲音

就像球體中的音樂

The boy lies in the grass unmoving

Staring at the sky

His mother starts to call him

As a hawk goes soaring by

And the boy pulls down his baseball cap

And covers up his eyes

男孩躺在草地上一動不動

盯著天空

他的母親開始呼喚他

就像一隻老鷹翱翔

男孩拉下他的棒球帽

蓋起他的眼睛

You move me, you move me

With your buildings and your eyes

Autumn woods and winter skies

You move me, you move me

Open sea and city lights

Busy streets and dizzy heights

You call me, you call me

你移動我，你移動我

你的建築和你的眼睛

秋天的樹木和冬天的天空

你移動我，你移動我

寬闊的大海和城市的燈光

繁忙的街頭和令人炫目的高度

你召喚我，你召喚我

Too many hands on my time

Too many feelings

Too many things on my mind

太多隻手打擾我

太多的感覺

太過事情在我腦海

When I leave I dont know

What Im hoping to find

And when I leave I dont know

What Im leaving behind

我不知道何時離開的

我希望發現什麼

我不知道何時離開的

我留在身後的是什麼

Oh when I leave I dont know

What Im hoping to find

And when I leave I dont know

What Im leaving behind

哦我不知道何時離開的

我希望發現什麼

我不知道何時離開的

我留在身後的是什麼

5.The Weapon (Part II of Fear)

武器（「恐懼」的第二部分）

Weve got nothing to fear but fear itself

Not pain, not failure, not fatal tragedy

Not the faulty units in this mad machinery

Not the broken contacts in emotional chemistry?

我們沒什麼好怕的，除了恐懼本身

不是痛苦，不是失敗，不是致命的悲劇

不是在這個瘋狂機器中的錯誤單位

不是在情感化學反應里的破碎聯繫？

With an iron fist in a velvet glove

We are sheltered under the gun

In the glory game on the power train

Thy kingdoms will be done

Is any killer worth more than his crime?

甚至愛也被時間限制

那些把我們推下的會往上爬

任何殺手會比他們的罪行更有價值嗎？

Like a steely blade in a silken sheath

We dont see what theyre made of

They shout about love, but when push comes to shove

They live for things theyre afraid of

就像一個鋼鐵刀鋒在柔軟的鞘中

我們看不到他們製造的

他們對愛大吼大叫，但當事態嚴重時

他們活在他們恐懼之物中

And the knowledge that they fear

Is a weapon to be used against them

是被用來反對他們的武器

7.Losing It

失去它

The dancer slows her frantic pace

In pain and desperation

Her aching limbs and downcast face

Aglow with perspiration

舞者在痛苦和絕望中

放緩了她瘋狂的舞步

她的四肢疼痛，汗流浹背

低垂的臉通紅

Stiff as wire, her lungs on fire

With just the briefest pause

The flooding through her memory

The echoes of old applause

像電線般僵硬，她的肺如同火燒

只是在簡短的停頓中

她的回憶如洪水般湧出

She limps across the floor

And closes her bedroom door

她無力地穿過地面

關上她卧室的門

The writer stares with glassy eyes

Defies the empty page

His beard is white, his face is lined

And streaked with tears of rage

作家用他獃滯的眼睛

凝視著空無的頁面

他的鬍子花白，他的臉上滿是皺紋

憤怒的淚水湧出，他惴惴不安

Thirty years ago, how the words would flow

With passion and precision

But now his mind is dark and dulled

By sickness and indecision

三十年前

充滿激情的精確的辭彙會如何湧出

但現在他的思維一片黑暗

因為疾病和猶豫變得遲鈍

And he stares out the kitchen door

Where the sun will rise no more

他凝視著廚房的門

那兒太陽不會再升起了

Some are born to move the world

To live their fantasies

But most of us just dream about

The things wed like to be

Sadder still to watch it die

Than never to have known it

For you, the blind who once could see

The bell tolls for thee

The bell tolls for...

一些人生來就是撼動世界的

去實現他們的夢想

但我們大多數人只能夢到

我們想要的事物

看著夢想死去

遠比從未知道它要悲傷

喪鐘為你而鳴

為你，曾可以看見世界的盲人

喪鐘為你而鳴

For you, the blind who once could see

The bell tolls for thee

The bell tolls for thee

喪鐘為你而鳴

為你，曾可以看見世界的盲人

喪鐘為你而鳴

8.Countdown

倒計時

Everything going smoothly

T-minus 45 minutes and counting

來吧，我們倒計時的45分鐘內一切順利

開始45分鐘倒計時

Coming up on t-minus 40 minutes

T-minus 40 minutes and counting

This is Shuttle launch control)

來吧，我們倒計時的45分鐘

開始45分鐘倒計時

這裡是太空梭發射控制中心

Lit up with anticipation

We arrive at the launching site

The sky is still dark, nearing dawn

On the Florida coastline

用希望點亮它

我們抵達了發射場

天空依舊漆黑，接近黎明

在佛羅里達的海岸線

Circling choppers slash the night

With roving searchlight beams

This magic day when super-science

Mingles with the bright stuff of dreams

盤旋的直升機正鞭打著夜

流動的探照燈

超科技的魔術的一天

由明亮的夢想所混合

(We have an AEO abort go for test

Tester says they are go for launch

At the present time we know of no major problems

As we enter this final hold)

我們已經終止了測試

測試人員說他們要推出去了

目前我們知道沒有重大問題

我們取得了最終的控制

Floodlit in the hazy distance

The star of this unearthly show

Venting vapours, like the breath

Of a sleeping white dragon

照亮朦朧的遠方

這場神秘演出的星星

排放蒸氣，就像一條沉睡的白龍在呼吸

Crackling speakers, voices tense

Resume the final count

All systems check, T minus nine

As the sun and the drama start to mount

揚聲器發聲，聲音緊張

恢復最後的倒數，倒計時9

檢查所有系統

太陽和劇本開始上演

The air is charged - a humid, motionless mass

The crowds and the cameras

The cars full of spectators pass

Excitement so thick - you could cut it with a knife

Technology - high, on the leading edge of life

空氣被潮濕而靜止的群眾填充

還有相機

滿載觀眾的汽車經過

興奮如此厚重，甚至你可以把它切割

技術，如此高超，在生活的前沿

我們發射了

The earth beneath us starts to tremble

With the spreading of a low black cloud

我們腳下的地球開始顫抖

底層的黑雲在眼前鋪開

(The shuttle has cleared the tower)

太空梭掃過了高塔

A thunderous roar shakes the air

Like the whole world exploding

雷鳴般的咆哮搖動了空氣

就像全世界爆炸

(Rocket is en route)

火箭在途中

Scorching blast of golden fire

As it slowly leaves the ground

Tears away with a mighty force

The air is shattered by the awesome sound

灼熱的爆破的金色火焰

它緩慢離開地面

強大力量讓它離開

空氣被可怖的巨響所震碎

(T plus 30 seconds, plus 35

Columbia-Houston you are go at 40)

Excitement so thick - you could cut it with a knife

Technology - high, on the leading edge of life

技術，如此高超，在生活的前沿

Like a pillar of cloud, the smoke lingers

High in the air

In fascination - with the eyes of the world

We stare...

就像雲上的支柱，煙般的徘徊

在更中

使人著迷，全世界的眼睛都盯著它

(Columbia is now turning towards its precise window

In space for main engine cutoff

... 40 seconds

Columbia now 39 nautical miles altitude

42 nautical miles downrange

哥倫比亞現在轉向它精確的窗口

在太空，所有主引擎停止
