歌词
Scared of losing all the time
失败的恐惧常相伴
He wrote it in a letter
他的信上这样写着
He was a friend of mine
这是我的一个伙伴
He heard you could see your future
听说你能预知未来
Inside a glass of water
仅仅凭借这杯中水
The ripples and the lines
随微风而起的水波
And he asked
所以他问了
"Will I see heaven in mine?"
“我会有一个辉煌的未来吗?”
That is just the way it was
(你说)他的未来就是一杯水
Nothing could be better
已经渐趋完美
And nothing ever was
却也从未达到完美
Oh, they say you can see your future
哦,(但可是)他们说你能预知未来
Inside a glass of water
仅仅凭借你的经历中
The riddles and the rhymes
那些微不足道的挫折
Will I see heaven in mine?
(但是)我会有一个辉煌的未来吗?
Oh, oh, oh
哎呀呀
Son, don't ask
孩子,这不需要疑惑
Neither half full nor empty
无论是命运令你失望还是欣喜
Is your glass
都是你自己掌握的命运
Cling to the mast
(只有)抓住一切机会(才能有辉煌的未来)
Spend your whole life living
(如果)将你的一生荒废在
In the past
过去的些成败与得失
Going nowhere fast
你将永远也无法迈向未来
So he wrote it on a wall
所以他将恐惧铭刻在心墙上
The hollowest of halos
那些跌入深谷(受挫)的天使(有志者)
Is no halo at all
已不再有天使(有志者)的模样
Television selling plastic
电视机那些大名鼎鼎的
Figurines of leaders
所谓你命运的领导者
Saying nothing at all
所说的高谈阔论与你的命运没有一点关系
And you chime, Stars in heaven align
但是你的声音与闪光点,那些如天边灿烂星尘的东西(会决定你的命运)
Oh, oh, oh
那么,那么,那么
Son, don't ask
孩子啊,不必多疑,下定决心
Neither half full nor empty
不论我们在天堂还是地狱
Is your glass
我们还是我们自己
Cling to the mast
只要紧握时机
Spend your whole life living
将你的一生用来奋斗
In the past
哪怕有那一段不美好的过去
Going nowhere fast
我们的辉煌的未来将会无处不在!!!
And what are we drinking when we're done?
所以,我们的成功和失败取决于什么呢
Glasses of water
(我们自己)杯杯水
