歌词
Eden - Sara Bareilles
伊甸园-莎拉·芭瑞黎丝
让我来为你描绘一下那画面
Let me paint a picture for you
然后我会教你如何去观察它
then I’ll have to teach you to see it
展示给你看那些残存的生命体
Illustrate the remnants of the life
我曾居住于此,在这伊甸园(根据《旧约·创世纪》记载,上帝耶和华照自己的形像造了人类的祖先男人亚当,再用亚当的一个肋骨创造了女人夏娃,并安置第一对男女住在伊甸园中。伊甸园在圣经的原文中含有乐园的意思。)
I used to live here in Eden
掷个幸运的骰子我们便可到达天堂
Rolled a lucky pair of dice, ended up paradise
降落在一条毒蛇眼前
Landed on a snake’s eyes,
毒牙撕咬,鲜血淋漓
took a bite and ended up bleeding
你知道的,若我可以做出什么改变
那么我想我一定从更名异姓开始
You know if I could change anything,
事实就是那些天使的魔力总是千篇一律
I think I would start with the name
我也知道现在这一切都无法倒退
The truth is all those angels started acting the same
伊甸园的生活
And I know there’s no going back now cause
这乐园里的美好早已时过境迁
Life in Eden
痛苦从来不可能公平地降临在人们的身上
Life in Eden changed
不是你说它不存在它便会消失不见
No way to make the pain play fair
当他们问起她缘何选择离开,你便说,这都只因
It doesn’t disappear just because you say it isn’t there
伊甸园的生活
So when they ask why’d she go you can say cause
这乐园早已经历沧海桑田
Life in Eden
伊甸园的美好早已消失不见
Life in Eden changed
一颗心形如蛇蝎,穿梭于那公园,他告诉我
Life in Eden changed
破碎的事物从来无法示人
丑陋比渎神更糟糕
Walking in the garden was a serpent-shaped heart and he told me
崇拜我的无辜天性又最终把它从我身上夺走
That what is broken cannot show,
如今我已幡然醒悟
and less than beautiful is worse than unholy
却还是为他们售予我的罪恶毒药买单
Idolized my innocence, stole it from me in the end
你知道的,若我可以改变点什么
Now I’m wide awakened
那么我想我一定从更名异姓开始
and still paying for the poison they sold me
事实就是那些天使的美丽总是如出一辙
我也知道现在这一切如离弦之箭
You know if I could change anything,
伊甸园的生活
I think I would start with the name
这乐园里的美好早已时过境迁
The truth is all those angels started acting the same
没人能控制命运之神让他公平对待世人
And I know there’s no going back now cause
不是你否认其存在它便会消失不见
Life in Eden
当他们问起她缘何选择离开,你便说,这都只因
Life in Eden changed
伊甸园的生活
No way to make the pain play fair
这乐园早已经历沧海桑田
It doesn’t disappear just because you say it isn’t there
伊甸园的美好早已消失不见
So when they ask why’d she go you can say cause
曾几何时,我与所有人打赌
Life in Eden
这里现今的美好无法超越从前
Life in Eden changed
如今当我置身事外再次回顾过往
Life in Eden changed
我发觉那时伊甸园的空气令我窒息
你知道的,若我可以改变点什么
There was a time when I was taking all bets
那么我想我一定从更名异姓开始
That this place was even better than as good as it gets
事实就是那些天使的魔力总是千篇一律
And now looking back from the outside in
我也知道现在这一切都无法倒退
I think I was choking on the air in Eden
伊甸园的生活
这乐园里的美好早已时过境迁
You know if I could change anything,
厄运从来不会公平地降临在每个人身上
I think I would start with the name
掩耳盗铃只能自欺欺人而已
The truth is all those angels started acting the same
当他们问起她缘何选择离开,你便说,这都只因
And I know there’s no going back now cause
伊甸园的生活
Life in Eden
这乐园早已经历沧海桑田
Life in Eden changed
伊甸园的美好早已消失不见
No way to make the pain play fair
It doesn’t disappear just because you say it isn’t there
So when they ask why’d she go you can say cause
Life in Eden
Life in Eden changed
Life in Eden changed
