A Plague Of Lighthouse Keepers (Medley) (2005 Digital Remaster)

歌词
Still waiting for my saviour, storms tear me limb from limb;
仍在等待我的救主,风暴撕裂我四肢;
my fingers feel like seaweed, I'm so far out I'm too far in.
我的手指摸起来像海草……我离得太远了,我太远了。
I am a lonely man, my solitude is true,
我是一个孤独的人,我的孤独是真实的,
my eyes have borne stark witness
我的眼睛是荒凉的见证。
and now my nights are numbered, too.
现在我的夜晚也屈指可数。
I've seen the smiles on dead hands,
我看到了死亡之手的微笑,
the stars shine, but they're not for me.
星星闪耀,却不是为我。
I prophesy disaster and then I count the cost...
我预言灾难,然后权衡得失…
I shine but, shining, dying, I know that I am almost lost.
我闪耀,但,光辉,死亡,我知道我几乎失去。
On the table lies blank paper and my tower is built on stone;
桌上有一张白纸,我的塔建在石头上;
I only have blunt scissors, I only have the bluntest home.
我只有钝剪刀,我只有最生硬的家。
I've been the witnessand the seal of death
我是死亡的印章
lingers in the molten wax that is my head.
苟延残喘在熔化的蜡是我的脑袋。
When you see the skeletons
当你看见骷髅
of sailing-ship spars sinking low
帆船桅杆下沉
You'll begin to wonder if the points of all the ancients myths
你会开始怀疑所有古人的神话
are solemnly directed straight at you...
庄严地直对着你…
No time now for contrition, the time for that's long past,
现在没有时间忏悔,时间属于漫长的过去,
the walls are thin as tissue and if I talk I'll crack the glass.
墙壁薄如纸张,如果我说话会打碎玻璃。
So I only think on how it might have been,
所以我只是想它可能会如何发生
locked in silent monologue, in silent scream.
被锁在无言的独白,在沉默的尖叫。
I am much too tired to speak
我累得说不出话来
and as the waves crash on the bleak
当海浪冲击着荒凉
stones of the towerI start to freak
塔上的石头开始胡闹
and find that I am overcome....
发现我已战胜
"Unreal, unreal" ghost helmsmen scream and fall in through the sky,
“假的,假的“鬼舵手尖叫,消散在天空,
not breaking through my seagull shrieks -no breaks until I die.
不要打破我海鸥般的尖叫-直到我死。
The spectres scratch on window-slits,
幽灵刮过窗缝,
the hollowed faces and mindless grins
空洞的面孔和盲目的笑
are only intent on destroying what they've lost.
只想摧毁他们失去的东西。
I crawl the wall till steepness ends in the vertical fall;
我爬在墙上,直到险峻结束在垂直下降;
my pail has sailed into the sea -no joking hopes at dawn.
我的水桶驶进了大海--黎明时没有可笑的希望。
White bone shine in the iron-jaw mask,
白骨在铁颌面具里闪耀,
lost mastheads pierce the freezing dark
失去了桅顶刺破冰冷的黑暗
and parallel my isolated tower...
平行于我孤独的塔…
no paraffin for the flame,
没有石蜡来提供火焰
no harbour left to gain.
没有海港来获得物资
'Alone, alone' the ghosts all call,
