其實原本是要翻Bon Iver的Perth和Beth/Rest
每次google他的作品卻只有skinny love的歌詞翻譯有點可惜
但花了半個小時研究後才發現
沒人翻譯他的作品其實很正常啊XD 太抽象了

總之 後來就把眼光放到了Damien Rice的作品上
不同於Justin，Damien比較紅的作品網路上幾乎都找得到夠水準的翻譯
（其中擲地無聲的翻譯及介紹都非常有趣 喜歡Damien的朋友可以去看看)
於是挑了兩首我喜歡又沒有中文歌詞的作品進行翻譯
第一次翻譯歌詞 有什麼不精準的地方歡迎提出來

Grey Room
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCFlknu2GFQ

Well I've been here before
唉 又陷入了如此田地
Sat on the floor in a grey grey room
我坐在灰灰房間的地上
Where I stay in all day
整日杵在原地
I don't eat,
but I play with this grey grey food
不吃飯 卻玩弄著灰灰的食物

Disolai,
if someone is prayin' then I might break out,
對不起 若有人禱告 我可能就此崩潰
Disolai
even if I scream I can't scream that loud
對不起 就算尖叫 聲音還是不夠響亮

I'm all alone again
又只剩孤單的我
Crawling back home again
又掙扎的爬回家中
Stuck by the phone again
又困在電話前頭

Well I've been here before
唉 又陷入了如此田地
Sat on a floor in a grey grey mood
我帶著灰灰的心坐在地上
Where I stay up all night
整日杵在原地
And all that I write is a grey grey tune
寫的文盡是灰灰的語氣

So pray for me child, just for a while
That I might break out yeah
所以為我祈禱吧孩子
也許不一會兒我就會潰堤
Pray for me child
Even a smile would do for now
為我祈禱吧孩子
就算一抹微笑也能暫時止血

'Cause I'm all alone again
因為又只剩孤單的我
Crawling back home again
又掙扎的爬回家中
Stuck by the phone again
又困在電話前頭

Have I still got you to be my open door
你還能是我敞心的對象嗎？
Have I still got you to be my sandy shore
你還能是我汪洋中的沙岸嗎？
Have I still got you to cross my bridge in this storm
風暴中你可否還願意走過我築的橋?
Have I still got you to keep me warm
還願意給我溫暖?

If I squeeze my grape and I drink my wine
我種的因 由我承擔果
Coz if I squeeze my grape and I drink my wine
因是我種的因 由我承擔果
Oh coz nothing is lost, it's just frozen in frost,
對 並沒失去什麼 只是心已被霜凍結
And it's opening time, there's no-one in line
就像開門時分 店中卻空無一人

But I've still got me to be your open door,
但我還能是你敞心的對象
I've still got me to be your sandy shore
我還能是你汪洋中的沙岸
I've still got me to cross your bridge in this storm
風暴中我仍願意走過你築的橋
And I've still got me to keep you warm
仍願意給你溫暖

Warmer than warm, yeah
Warmer than warm, yeah
Warmer than warm, yeah
Warmer than warm, yeah
滿滿的溫暖
