歌词
Casey joins the hollow sound of silent people walking down
凯西坠入沉默而又虚伪的人群之中
The stairway to the subway in the shadows down below
走下深埋在阴影中的地铁楼梯
Following their footsteps through the neon darkened corridors
随着他们穿透霓虹灯,回响在走廊里的脚步
Of silent desperation never speaking to a soul
寂静的绝望,却无法透过灵魂传达
The poison air he's breathing has a dirty smell of dying
他呼吸着充斥死亡的污浊空气
Cause it's never seen the sunshine and it's never felt the rain
因为它们从未接受过阳光和雨水的洗礼
But casey minds the arrows and ignores the fatal echoes
凯西只是留意着路标,却忽略了——
Of the clicking of the turnstile and the rattle of his chain
旋转铁门的背后,铰链咯吱转动时致命的回响
Oh she said, casey it's been so long since i've seen you
“凯西,好久不见”,她惊讶的说道。
Here she said, just a kiss to make a body smile
“吻我”,她说,“让我们感受彼此身体的欢愉吧”。
See she said, i put on new stockings just to please you
“看!我换上了新的丝袜,只是为了取悦你”。
Lord she said, casey can you only stay a while
“天啊!凯西,你可以多待在我身边一会儿吗”?她叹道。
Casey leaves the underground and stops inside the golden crown
凯西步履匆匆离开地铁,驻足在金冠站台上
For something wet to wipe away the chill that's on his bones
仿佛只有湿冷的空气才能擦去他体内深入骨髓的寒意
Seeing his reflection in the lives of all the lonely men
望着芸芸众生如同他一样的——
Who reach for anything thay can to keep from going home
那些想尽办法不回家的孤独的男人们
Standing in the corner casey drinks his pint of bitter
角落里,凯西抿了一口苦酒
Never glancing in the mirror at the people passin' by
不再去注意镜子里擦肩而过的路人
And he stumbles as he's leavin' and he wonders if the reason
蹒跚离去之时,凯西想要知道
Is the beer that's in his belly or the tear that's in his eye
眼中留下的究竟是苦酒还是泪水?
Oh she said, i suppose you seldom think about me
“我猜啊,你从未想起过我”她说道。
Now she said, now that you've a family of your own
“现在,你也已经有了你的家庭”。
Still she said, it's so blessed good to feel your body
“但有幸还能依旧感受到你身体的愉悦。”
Lord she said, casey it's a shame to be alone
“主啊!”,她叹道:“凯西,孤独的人是可耻的。”
