歌词
We were young and bound for glory
我们青春注定荣光
Itchin' for a fight like you
像你一样渴望战斗
Bringin' hell and purgatory
要把地狱的怒火带给
To the boys who wore the blue
那些穿蓝衣的北方佬
And I thought I'd seen it all
以为自己见证一切
Till the day night wouldn't fall
却没看过长夜不再之日
Oh, how the sun did blaze
哦，太阳是如何耀眼
Wouldn't go down for days
多少天都不会落山
I got shot and lost my rifle
在第一波进攻到来时
When the first wave hit the rise
我被击中，丢了枪
And the guns rolled out like thunder
枪声轰鸣如同雷吼
And the black smoke burned my eyes
黑烟迷乱我的双眼
And I watched it all unfold
看这一切在眼前展开
Just the way the Bible told
正如同《圣经》中的景象:
Joshua's endless day
约书亚那永恒的白昼
Keepin' the night at bay
阻隔夜晚不再到来
And the soldiers kept a comin'
战士们不断聚集于此
Till the ground looked like a sea
地面仿佛成为海洋
Of blue and grey
其中蓝灰交错相间
And I watched it from a distance
我在远方注视着战场
Wonderin' if I would've fought or run away
想知道自己是会战斗，还是逃离
The day the sun stood still
太阳静止的那一天
How they beat the bloody drums
血腥的鼓点回响
And the seconds moved like hours
一秒如同小时般漫长
But the sunset never comes
日落却从未到来
And the cannons shake the ground
炮声传来震动大地
And the bullets test your will
子弹飞过考验意志
Even shadows found no cover
甚至没有阴影的遮蔽
On that Godforsaken hill
于此荒凉山丘之上
The day the sun stood still
就在太阳静止的那一天
And I watched them lean their shoulders
我看着他们肩膀靠在
To the fearful hail of lead
仿佛铅做的致命冰雹上
And I prayed for night to save us
祈祷整晚来寻求救赎
And I cried and bowed my head
不禁又哭着低下头
But the sun just kept a-creepin'
而太阳只是慢慢移动
'Cross a cold indifferent sky
爬行穿过冷漠苍天
Castin' a deadly glow
将死亡的光芒投射
On all the men below
在之下每个人身上
All the hours in a lifetime
一生中的所有光景
Don't add up to one whole minute in that sun
也比不上骄阳之下，这一刻
And the heroes and the cowards
英雄或是懦夫
Look the same when they have fallen by the gun
中弹倒地之后，终归都一样
The day the sun stood still
太阳静止的那一天
And the north and south looked west
南北士兵都向西望去
But the evening star was sleeping
然而夜空繁星沉睡
And the daylight wouldn't rest
日光久久不愿离去
Out on the killing floor
就在厮杀的战场上
The red sun on the the hill
血红的太阳俯视山冈
Shinin' down on all the dead men
天光照射无数尸首
With a strange and eerie chill
带来陌生而又怪异的寒意
The day the sun stood still
太阳静止的那一天
Do not judge what you brother does
不要评判，兄弟们的举动
Till you've walked a mile
除非你亲身体验
Rank by bloody file
面对着带血的刺刀
Who's to say if you'll run or stay and fight?
逃走或是留下来战斗，又有谁知道
The day the sun stood still
太阳静止的那一天
Is just beneath the skin
就在人们肌肤之下
In the soul of every soldier
在战士们的灵魂中
Every battle that he's in
参加的每场战役里
The day the sun stood still
太阳静止的那一天
Will haunt your dreams at night
将萦绕于夜晚噩梦
And stalk your every sunrise
追随着每个黎明到来
Though you will not know it till
尽管未曾发觉，直到——
The day the sun stood still
太阳静止的那一天
How they beat the bloody drums
血腥的鼓点回响
And the seconds moved like hours
一秒如同小时般漫长
But the sunset never comes
日落却从未到来
And the cannons shake the ground
炮声传来震动大地
And the bullets test your will
子弹飞过考验意志
Even shadows found no cover
甚至没有阴影的遮蔽
On that Godforsaken hill
于此荒凉山丘之上
The day the sun stood still
就在太阳静止的那一天
