歌词
When I was older
我曾经梦想安在,
I was a sailor
仿佛水手一般,
On an open sea
在空海之上徘徊。
But now I'm underwater
如今我于水下浮沉,
And my skin is paler
皮肤敏感惨白,
Than it should ever be
比以前任何一段时间都要惨白。
Mhm
哦
我独自沉思,我和自己一起,
I'm on my back again
幻想着一个时间,一个地点,
Dreaming of a time and place
一片你与我仍为挚友的乐土,
Where you and I remain the best of friends
在发生了这一切之后,
Even after all this ends
我们能否继续佯装伪善,自欺无知?
Can we pretend?
我又坠落,
I'm on my-
坠落至心灵低谷。
I'm on my back again
现在看来可笑,
It seems more and more
可是我们的所作所为一直似乎在试探,
Like all we ever do is see
试探我们的感情之弦,
How far it bends
在它崩坏断离之际,我们又
Before it breaks in half and then
试图将其挽救。
We bend it back again
我猜,在一次次沉思之中我略有顿悟。
是的,我得到教训了,虽然也就是一些肤浅的皮毛。
Guess I got caught in the middle of it
在我炽热的血液,流淌的血液中,我明白了什么。
Yes I’ve been taught, got a little of it
记忆如森林大火般熊熊燃烧,
In my blood, in my blood
而骤雨方可浇灭这火葬时的木柴堆。
Memories burn like a forest fire
就在今晚,于火焰中涅槃重生。
Heavy rain turns any funeral pyre
我曾经清醒老成,
Tonight, in the flames
如水手一般,
在空海之上徘徊。
When I was older
如今我于水下浮沉,
I was a sailor
我心脆弱敏感,
On an open sea
前所未有的易碎。
But now I'm underwater
我试图看电影消愁,
And my skin is paler
黑与白的画面在眼前闪现,我从未
Than it should ever be
见过任何比我更专注的观众。
我开始回想,而我疲惫的身躯阻挠着我想起你。
I'm watching movies back to back
没有人像我这般孤独,不知道你是否
In black and white, I never
会享受众人目光下挣扎的感觉呢?
Seen everybody do it like I do it any better
你太单纯,同情伪善之人,
Then going over you, I'm overdue for no endeavors
而我太过执拗,仍然在捍卫自己心中的真实。
Nobody lonely like I'm lonely and I don't know whether
可是,我是自己眼中的邪恶,无法获得救赎。
You'd really like it in the limelight
我曾经豁达无忧,
You'd sympathize with all the bad guys
如水手一般,
I'm still a victim on my own right
驰骋于空海之上,享受自由。
But I'm the villain in my own eyes
When I was older
I was a sailor
On an open sea
