Carrying my soul high up above the ground and
I've been keepin' to myself

我始终独自默默承受
Knowin' that the seasons are slowly changing

Down your pretty summer dress
Baby, what a mess you're making
顺着你美丽的夏裙滑落

Wild birds scattering the seeds

The phases of the moon
月亮的阴晴圆缺
The chambers of the heart
心房的每一次跳动
The ebb and dart of small gray
灰暗的潮起潮落
Spiders spinning in the dark
蜘蛛在黑暗中织网
In spite of all the times the web is torn apart
