When we touch the world
And it falls away
When we feel that we're born
Just to fall apart
And our mother lies in state
And the broken pitcher glistens
And the snow is at the window
Creating neither sign nor symbol
And the earth covers earth
And the mud lies in pools
Where the sand-dunes stretch unbroken
And the dry wind bends and sighs
And the geese are running harmless
And our desires are running wild
Then we're looking at the smoke
That's rising from the incense
Neither coming here nor going
Neither heaven here nor hell
Neither borning here nor birthing
Neither dying here nor death
And we're wrapped inside our troubles
And we're wrapped inside our pain
And wracked with fires with longing
And our eyes are blind with night
With our fingers clutching coins
And our thoughts burning with 'I'
And our eyes cannot be sated
With the world and its nightmares
With the world and its dreams
Though later they'll be filled
With a small handful of dust
And the gods appear on the altars
And we recognise their face
It's a face that we have carved there
And it's full of fear and longing
And promises and threats
But they neither stoop to conquer
Nor do they stoop to praise
And the mines are void of diamonds
That we carry in our rags
Then all the world seems
A sadness song
A sadness song
A sadness song
And all the world seems
A sadness song

歌詞解析
一句話主旨
世界如一首悲傷的歌，無法逃離無盡的孤寂與虛無。
主題
探討存在本質的虛無感與人類在命運前的無力，透過破碎意象與哲思語句描繪生命的荒謬與掙扎。
情緒
沉重、悲涼、沉思，夾雜對命運的絕望與對自身存在的質疑。
意象與手法
「破碎陶罐」象徵被擊碎的希望，「雪停窗前」隱喻冷漠的隔絕，「飛雁無害」暗示無力改變的現實。重複結構與對比句式（如「既非天堂亦非地獄」）強化存在主義的荒謬感。
重點句解讀
1. 「Neither coming here nor going / Neither heaven here nor hell」
翻譯既不來此也不離去／既非天堂也非地獄
解析否定現實與來世的意義，表達對存在本質的虛無感，彷彿人類處於無意義的中間狀態。
2. 「It's a face that we have carved there」
翻譯那是我們自己� carving 出的臉
解析神明形象實為人類自我投射，揭示人類對命運的掌控幻想與內在恐懼的交織。
3. 「Though later they'll be filled / With a small handful of dust」
翻譯儘管後來它們將被填滿／一捧塵土
解析預示所有追求終將歸於虛無，強化生命無常與執念的徒勞。
適合情境
獨處沉思、面對人生困境時，或需要安靜消化存在焦慮的時刻。
