Baby ballerina's hiding somewhere in the corner
where the shadow wraps around her
and our torches cannot find her
she will stay there 'til the morning
crawl behind us as we are yawning
and she will leave our games to never be the same
So Grow Tall Sugar Cane
Eat that Soil, Drink the Rain
But know they'll chase you if you play their little games
So run, run fast Sugar Cane
You see my peep show booth is handy
There's a one way only mirror
so I can dance here with my hair down
but i don't see if you get bitter
and there's a button right beside me
if i happen to want a wall to hide me
if only the ballerina had one too
So Grow Tall Sugar Cane
Eat that Soil, Drink the Rain
But know they'll chase you if you play their little games
So run, run fast Sugar Cane
And she said, "always, be afraid"
Yeah she said, "always, be afraid"
歌词大致是在说,一个小芭蕾舞者因为躲藏在一片甘蔗地中,
到了第二天不幸也变成了甘蔗,然后始终在这里慢慢地成长。
Eat the soil drink the rain:尝着土壤喝着雨水。
她就这么将自己藏匿在自然中,远离了尘世的喧嚣,
也逐渐失去了思索与感受的能力。
但当她再度看到有人长发披肩翩翩起舞,
她才又不可避免地感到内心的痛楚。
如果这时有一个洞或者一堵墙那该有多好。
