Leaving the City

歌词
干草,干净的畜棚
Hay and a clean stall
花园墙上的常青藤
And ivy on a garden wall
写着已售的公告牌
And a sign saying sold
紧裹病体的旧大衣
And an old coat for the bad cold
我相信你
你相信我吗?
I believe in you
你要做什么?
Do you believe in me?
我们要离开城市吗?
What do you wanna do?
沿着黑色的道路
Are we leaving the city?
穿过金色的田野
On the black road
田野正在被犁开
Through the gold fields
成为我们的工地
While the fields are plowed
缰绳在放松的手中下垂
Towards what we are allowed
将马的慢跑变作小碎步
我们意欲停得威风凛凛
The bridle bends in idle hands
却没有实现,疾行后不堪地下摔
And slows your canter to a trot
摔得越狠,入地越深
We mean to stop in increments
我们追名,我们逐誉
But can't commit, we post and sit in impotence
专业认证,玻璃封装
The harder you hit, the deeper the dent
经过训练,管理杂费
We seek our name, we seek our fame
漂白我们的衣领
And our credentials, paned in glass
从我们的分文中滤走我们的大钱
Trained to master incidentals
暮去朝来,租债高累
Bleach our collar, leach our dollar
灰空在上
From our cents
红谷仓旁
The longer you live, the higher the rent
白云之下
Beneath the pale sky
是我们仅有的一切
Beside the red barn
这里,有缕光渗入
Below the white clouds
有长镰挥舞
Is all we are allowed
而灵魂会碎裂
Here, the light will seep
在倒数终结的时光中
And the scythe will reap
那一年的十二月
And spirit will rend
消息传来:她到了这里
In counting toward the end
日子仿佛变短,我相信
若她到我这里
In December of that year
我会坚守自我,我会忍耐
The word came down that she was here
可他们的话暗含异状
The days grew shorter
终于发生
I was sure if she came 'round
春日到来,精神错乱
I'd hold my ground, I'd endure
低垂的草叶与睡意,让她撞向我的窗户
But they'd alluded to a change
那涌入的无尽光束
That came to pass
令我几乎无法呼吸
And spring, deranged, weeping grass and sleepless broke
从她的裂缝中飞溅逃离
Herself upon my windowglass
不住的日光,鲜明地流淌
And I could barely breathe for seeing
染白了夜色,同时黎明淡去在高阳之中
All the splintered light that leaked
而我们的好日子已经湮灭
Her fissures fleeing, launched in flight
在我的灵魂屈服的那一刻
Unstaunched daylight, brightly bleeding
明白要为这一切画上句号
Bleached the night with dawn deleting
而这是我现在需要的全部
In that high sun after our good run
只为使我憔悴的灵魂折腰
When the spirit bends
折向我仅有的世界
Beneath knowing it must end
折向我仅有的世界
And that is all I want here
To draw my gaunt spirit to bow
Beneath what I am allowed
Beneath what I am allowed
