《The Legend of 1900》
Christ, did you see the streets? Just the streets. There were thousands of them!
老天,你看见那些街道了吗?光是街道就有成千上万条!
How do you do it down there? How do you choose just one?
该怎么选?该选哪一条?
One woman, one house, one piece of land to call your own, one landscape to look at, one way to die.
选哪个女人?选哪座房子?选哪块属于你的土地?选哪一处风景?还有,选哪种死法?
All that world just weighing down on you. You don’t even know where it comes to an end.
整个世界对你而言不过是个重担。你甚至都不知道它的尽头在哪儿。
I mean, aren’t you ever just scared of breaking apart at the thought of it? The enormity of living in it?
我是说,你想到生活在这么巨大的城市里时难道不会崩溃吗?
I was born on the ship, and the world passed me by, but two thousand people at a time.
我在这艘船上出生, 世界从我身旁经过,但每次只有两千人。
And there were all wishes here, but never more than fit between prow and stern.
这里有全部的希望,但从不超过艏艉之间。
You played out your happiness but on a piano that was not infinite.
在有限的钢琴上,你才能创造出无限的快乐。
I learned to live that way.
我只学会了这样生活。
