Time in a Tree (Live from Angel Studios, London, 2019)

I just want time in a tree

I need a place just for me

Somewhere that I can be free

Keep the faith and just be

I guess rules are there to break
我猜规则就是用来打破的
But I make mistakes like they were handed on a plate
但我也会犯错 就如同那些错误等着我犯一样
When I try to leave sometimes,

I’m standing in the way
我却成为了自己最大的阻碍
I’m on the edge of crying all the time,
我就在崩溃的边缘
Cos I can’t human right
因为我不知道生而为人到底为了什么
What a state

I get wound up, from the ground up
当我从地上爬起 满身伤痕
And I don’t know why
却不知道为什么
Turn the sound up, drown the noise out
让心声愈演愈烈 掩盖世俗的声音
Swallow , Don’t cry
忍住 ， 别哭
Got an anxious heart, and it’s stone made

Can’t take paper or heartbreak
不是纸做的 没那么容易心碎
