歌曲歌詞
Driving home she grabs something to eat
開車回家的路上她買了點吃的
Turns a corner and drives down her street
轉過街角，沿街行駛
Into a row of houses she just melts away
在林立的房子間消融不見
Like the scenery in another man's play
像某人戲劇中的場景
Into a house where the blinds are closed
走進房子，百葉窗緊閉著
To keep from seeing things she don't wanna know
就不用去看那些煩心事
She pulls the blinds and looks out on the street
她拉起百葉窗朝街上望去
The cool of the night takes the edge off the heat
夜間的涼意磨平了
In the Jackson Cage
傑克遜籠的炎熱
Down in the Jackson Cage
傑克遜籠的炎熱（應是一虛構地名）
You can try with all your might
任你使盡渾身解數
But you're reminded every night
每晚仍會想起
That you been judged and handed life
你已受審判，注定生活在
Down in the Jackson Cage
這傑克遜籠
Every day ends in wasted motion
終日在無用功中消磨
Just crossed swords on the killing floor
仿佛終日拼殺的劍
To settle back is to settle without knowing
仰面躺下，卻渾然不覺
The hard edge that you're settling for
命中注定的艱難
Because there's always just one more day
永遠有的新的一天要面對
And it's always gonna be that way
永遠如此
Little girl you've been down here so long
小姑娘，你在此地已經太久
I can tell by the way that you move you belong to
你的一舉一動都在表明
The Jackson Cage
你屬於傑克遜籠
Down in Jackson Cage
這傑克遜籠
And it don't matter just what you say
無需多言了
Are you tough enough to play the game they play
他們玩的遊戲，你是否夠膽去玩？
Or will you just do your time and fade away
還是渾噩度日，逐漸消失在
Down into the Jackson Cage
這傑克遜籠？
Baby there's nights when I dream of a better world
寶貝，夜裡我時時夢見一個更好的世界
But I wake up so downhearted girl
但醒來卻是那么失落
I see you feeling so tired and confused
我見你疲憊迷茫
I wonder what it's worth to me or you
我疑惑這一切的意義
Just waiting to see some sun
痴痴地等待陽光
Never knowing if that day will ever come
永遠不知那一天何時到來
Left alone standing out on the street
也不可能出人頭地
Till you become the hand that turns the key down in
不可能打開這堅硬的鎖
Jackson Cage
這傑克遜籠
Down in Jackson Cage
這傑克遜籠
Well darlin' can you understand
寶貝你知道嗎
The way that they will turn a man
他們是怎樣把人
Into a stranger to waste away
活生生變成了局外人，漸漸消失在
Down in the Jackson Cage
這傑克遜籠
