I would rather suffer sweet silent solitude 我宁愿受甜蜜寂寥无声

Deathly defiant from drowning out 从淹没了死一般的挑衅

Filthy sounds stumbling, ugly and cruel 痴音障碍，丑陋和残忍

Between the lips of your beautiful mouth 你美丽的嘴嘴唇之间

   

Deep down within me words move in phases 在内心深处我话中移动分期

Frozen and still until they decide 冷冻和静止不动，直到他们决定

To melt and drip over the pages 要融化滴落一翻

Until that moment they live inside. 直到那一刻，他们住进去。

   

My words enjoy the feel of the paper 我的话享受纸上的感觉

Better than me, lay with your consonants 比我好，打好与辅音

Once they get going they never waver 一旦他们走了，他们从来没有动摇

And they slip in between your ifs, ands, and buts. 他们溜进你的IFS ， ANDS ，和但是之间。

   

When my words are hiding between the lines 当我的话是在字里行间隐藏

Then I'm afraid they won't hear me call 然后，我怕他们会不会听到我的呼唤

What if they fail me without a sign? 如果他们失败，我没有征兆？

What if they hardly surface at all? 如果他们很难浮出水面呢？

   

Screaming and throwing your weight around 尖叫和周围扔你的体重

My words choose knowledge over politics 我的话，选择的知识在政治

You can't kill my words... they know no bounds 你不能杀我的话......他们知道没有界限

My words are strong and they don't make me sick. 我的话是强大的，他们没有让我恶心。

   

They still remain my only companion 他们仍然是我唯一的伴侣

Boiling truth to the very end 沸腾的真理进行到底

They'll never ever completely abandon 他们将永远不会完全放弃

Ever give up the paper and the pen 从此放弃了纸张和笔
