Look Up
给低头族的一首诗:《抬起头吧！》
I have 422 friends, yet I am lonely.
我有422个朋友，但我还是孤伶伶的。
I speak to all of them every day, yet none of them really know me.
我每天跟他们所有人说话，但他们没有一人真正了解我。
The problem I have sits in the spaces between
我所拥有的问题，存在于那之中的空间
Looking into their eyes, or at a name on a screen.
是要看着他们的双眼，或是看着荧幕上的名字
I took a step back and opened my eyes,
我向后退了一步，并睁开我的双眼，
I looked around and realized,
我环顾四周，发现，
This media we call social is anything but
这个我们称作社交的媒体一点也不社交
When we open our computers and it's our doors we shut.
当我们打开我们的电脑，我们就关上了那道门。
All this technology we have, it's just an illusion,
我们拥有的所有这些科技，只是个假象
Community companionship, a sense of inclusion, yet
社会的陪伴、一种包容感，然而
When you step away from this device of delusion
当你远离这个欺瞒的装置，
You awaken to see a world of confusion,
你会觉醒看见这个充满混淆的世界，
A world where we're slaves to the technology we mastered
一个我们受到我们精通的科技所奴役的世界
Where information gets sold by some rich greedy bastard,
在那儿资讯被某些富有贪婪的混蛋出卖，
A world of self interest, self image, self promotion
一个充斥个人利益、个人影像、个人推广的世界
Where we all share our best bits, but leave out the emotion.
在那儿我们全都分享我们最好的一面，但将情绪抛诸脑后。
We're at our most happy with an experience we share,
我们在分享经验时是最快乐的，
But is it the same if no one is there?
但如果没人同在，还会是一样的吗？
Be there for your friends and they'll be there too,
对你的朋友伸出援手，他们也会同等付出
But no one will be if a group message will do.
但如果有个群组讯息可以做到的话，就没人会去做。
We edit and exaggerate, crave adulation.
我们编辑、夸大、渴望得到奉承。
We pretend not to notice the social isolation.
我们假装没有注意到社交孤立。
We put our words into order and tint our lives a glistening.

We don't even know if anyone is listening.

Being alone isn't a problem,
孤独并不是个问题，
Let me just emphasize, if you read a book, paint a picture, or do some exercise.
让我就再强调，如果你读本书、画幅画、或做些运动
You're being productive and present, not reserved and recluse.

I can't stand to hear the silence of a busy commuter train

We're becoming unsocial,

It no longer satisfies to engage with one another, and look into someone's eyes.

We're surrounded by children, who since they were born,

Be out with my friends, on our bikes we'd roam.
