I look straight in the window, try not to look below 我看着直窗口，尽量不看下面

Pretend I'm not up here, try counting sheep 假装我不是在这里，试着数羊

But the sheep seem to shower off this office tower 但羊似乎沐浴关闭此办公楼

Nine-point-eight straight down I can't stop my knees 九点八个直降我不能停止我的膝盖

   

[Chorus] [合唱]

I wish I could fly 我希望我能飞

From this building 从这个大楼

From this wall 从这个墙

And if I should try 如果我要试试

Would you catch me if I fall? 你会追我，如果我倒下？

   

My hands clench the squeegee, my secular rosary 我的手握紧了刮刀，我世俗的念珠

Hang on to your wallet, hang on to your rings 挂在你的钱包，挂在你的戒指

Can't look below me, or something might throw me 不能看我下面，还是会扔给我

Curse at the windstorms that October brings 骂那个十月带来的风暴

   

I look in the boardroom; a modern pharaoh's tomb 我期待在会议室;现代法老的陵墓

I'd gladly swap places, if they care to dive 我很高兴地交换位置，如果他们关心跳水

They're lined up at the window, peer down into limbo 他们在窗口排队，同行下入冷宫

They're frightened of jumping, in case they survive 他们害怕跳的，万一他们生存

   

I wish I could step from this scaffold 我希望我能一步从这个支架

Onto soft green pastures, shopping malls, or bed 到柔软的青草，商场，或床

With my family and my pastor and my grandfather who's Dead 与我的家人和我的牧师和我的外公是谁死了

   

Look straight in the mirror, watch it come clearer 在镜直视，看它来更清晰

I look like a painter, behind all the grease 我看起来像一个画家，后面所有的油脂

But paintings creating, and I'm just erasing 但绘画创作，而我只是删除

A crystal-clear canvas is my masterpiece 水晶般透明的画布是我的杰作

   

[Chorus] [合唱]
