|Paramore|Discord上海狸发布的一段文字

太长怕度娘吞了，所以分段发
译文如下：
I can’t remember a time I didn’t want to be in a band. I knew not joining forces with similarly crazed people might mean I’d never be brave enough to create things and even if I did, I may never risk sharing them. Selfish? Maybe. Or lonely?
Maybe to “leave the house” is a metaphor for risking true vulnerability.
我已然记不清我在什么时候不想加入乐队了。我意识到不与同样疯狂的人并肩前行或将意味着我永远没有足够的勇气去创造新的东西，亦或是我这么去做了，我也无法冒险去分享他们。自私自利？也许吧。或许是孤单寂寞？
可能“离开这间房子”才是真正冒着脆弱风险的一个隐喻/象征。

This job includes being a mirror or a blank screen for people to project onto and find themselves in. Being perceived in broad strokes will make you feel like a clown. Goofy and/or terrifying, depending on the day.
这个（由房子所衍生出隐喻的过程）包括充当了一面镜子或是一块空白的屏幕，让人们将自己投射到其中并发现属于自己的情感映射。被笼统的去看待让你感觉自己像个小丑。愚蠢的，亦或者是恐惧，这些定论都取决于时间。

But as I’ve grown up, I’ve felt myself, little by little, let go of the tireless need for people to see me as “good”. Indeed, everyday I learn there is no such box to fit neatly into. It’s taken a lot of hard looks in the mirror, over many seasons of adulthood… but no longer do I question my ability to lead Paramore with integrity (and a healthy dose of dark and self-deprecating humor).
但是随着我不断的成长，我感觉自己一点一点地放弃了那种需要孜孜不倦，希望人们看到我“好”的那一面。事实上，每天我都意识到循规蹈矩，按部就班的生活是难以实现的。我花了很多的时间在镜子面前审视自己，至使我经历了很多的“成年期”……..但我不再怀疑自己的能力能否以正直（以及一种健康的自嘲和黑色幽默）的态度领导着Paramore乐队

And just like a house can be a metaphor, so can a band. Paramore has been the vehicle by which me and my friends have learned our toughest lessons. It has kept us close and it has nearly killed us. You also have these metaphors in your life: What holds you back— what gives you courage— what force compels you to grow even when it’s uncomfortable or embarrassing.
就像“房子”可以成为一个隐喻/象征，乐队也可以。Paramore乐队已然是我和我的朋友学习到我们人生最困难一课的抽象载体。它让我们更紧密的联系在了一起，同时也差点要了我们的命。在你的生活中也会存在这些隐喻/象征：那些阻碍你的事物——那些给予你勇气的东西——那些迫使你成长的力量，纵使让你感到不适或者羞愧的时刻。

(As for Paramore, the band, not the metaphor: We have crashed the van. We’re finding new ways. We have new maps. We are starting from point zero. And this time, we’re reading the fine print.)
Love to the ones who’ve needed our band the way we’ve needed it. Just know we are grateful.
-Hayley
（Paramore作为乐队，而非隐喻/象征的一面：我们撞毁了货车；我们寻找新的出路；我们有了新的规划；我们从新开始。接下来，我们将专注于不起眼的细节。)
向那些像我们一样需要我们乐队的人送上我的爱意，就请将我们的感激铭记于心吧。
——海狸

文字的最后一句：“Just know we’re grateful.”梦回After Laughter时期，单曲no friend的最后一句歌词

又像是新的开始又像是对过去的总结，我之前完全没意识到她会把乐队比做一辆车然后在自己的驾驶下失控（想一想同名的fast in my car也许也用了一样的比喻）越来越觉得海狸一路走来好不容易
