Jar of Flies - Alice in Chains 整EP歌词试翻译

这张EP是AIC乐队的贝斯手换成Mike Inez之后录制的，录音花了大概一周，录音的时间在1993年的九月。发行于1994年1月。
《苍蝇罐》这个名字，据Layne说，是吉他手Jerry Cantrell从学校里的一个实验得来的灵感。当时他们用两个苍蝇罐做实验，一个里面的苍蝇被他们喂得饱饱的，一个里面的则是控制食量，让它们挨饿。后来前面的罐子里面的苍蝇由于过度繁殖全都死了，后面的罐子里的苍蝇则活过了一年。Layne认为这件事情对于Jerry有一定影响。

What I see is unreal

2. "Nutshell"
We chase misprinted lies
We face the path of time
And yet I fight
And yet I fight
This battle all alone
No one to cry to
No place to call home
我们追逐错印的谎言
我们面对时间的路径
我已经争斗
独自争斗
很久了
没有可倾诉的人
没有可为家之地
Oooh...Oooh...
Oooh...Oooh...
My gift of self is raped
My privacy is raked
And yet I find
And yet I find
Repeating in my head
If I can't be my own
I'd feel better dead
自我之赋被强掠
隐私被用耙平铺
我已经寻到
已经寻到
脑海中的回响
若我不为自我
那我宁可死去
Oooh...Oooh...
Oooh…Oooh...

3. "I Stay Away"
Yeah, I want to travel south this year
Aaah, Woah, Woah
Won't prevent safe passage here
对，今年我想去南方旅行
Aaah, Woah, Woah
在这里无法抵抗危险
Why you act crazy
Not an act maybe
So close a lady
Shifty eyes shady
为什么表现得疯狂
也许不算刻意
同她如此接近
眼神躲闪如此可疑
Yeah, hey Yeah,
tears that soak
A callous heart
那浸湿了一颗
冷酷的心的眼泪
Why you act frightened
I am enlightened
Your weakness builds me
So someday you'll see
为什么你表现得惊恐
我已经受到启发
你的缺陷构筑了我
总有一天你会看见
I stay away
我离开
Why you act crazy
Not an act maybe
So close a lady
Shifty eyes shady
为什么表现得疯狂
也许不算刻意
同她如此接近
眼神躲闪如此可疑
I stay away [4x]
我离开

5. "Don't Follow"
Hey, I ain't never coming home
Hey, I'll just wander my own road
Hey, I can't meet you here tomorrow
Say goodbye don't follow
Misery so hollow
我并不在归途
我只是兀自徘徊
我明天无法见你
所以再见 别再跟随
苦难如此空洞
Hey you, you're livin' life full throttle
Hey you, pass me down that bottle, yeah
Hey you, you can't shake me round now
I get so lost and don't know how, yeah
And it hurts to care, I'm going down
你，你的生活油门全开
你，把我装进那瓶中
你，不能就这样摇晃我
我如此迷失 但又该如何
关心带来痛苦 我正在下沉
Forgot my woman, lost my friends
Things I'd done and where I've been
Sleep in sweat the mirrors cold
See my face it's growin' old
Scared to death no reason why
Do whatever to get me by
Think about the things I said
Read the page it's cold and dead
忘记情人 失去朋友
我的所处之境
流汗入眠 而镜子如此寒冷
望着我那日渐衰老的脸
对死亡的恐惧感 不可名状
无论以何种方式 带我一程
又开始思索着我过去所言
阅读着冷又死气沉沉的书页
Take me home [5x]
带我回家
Say goodbye Don't follow
所以再见 别再跟随

这是百年难得一见的好内容啊!
