歌词
when we were young
当我们还很年轻时
our words were innocent -
语言是那般天真无邪
whiter than snow,
皎白如雪
awkward and slow.
笨拙却不紧不慢
now when we speak,
现在的我们，谈起话来
we risk an avalanche.
却随时有雪崩的危险
but that's not enough now
但这还远远不够
to reroute our plans.
来重新制定我们的规划
i believe that we've got it wrong, got it wrong.
我相信，终究还是我们错了
we'll realize when it's said and done, said and done,
一切尘埃落定后，我们会意识到
that in our words we've lost so much more
换言之，我们遗失错过的
than we've ever won.
比得到的多太多
the aftermath
所有的后果
is cracked wood where fences stood
是栅栏旁残缺的树枝
and the broken bones of our childhood.
是童年时光的残垣断壁
in our trembling fear,
带着令人震颤的恐惧
we put words inside God's mouth.
我们悄悄向上帝撒谎
we cover our tracks
希望可以将一切掩盖得天衣无缝
and get so proud of ourselves,
我们是如此引以为傲
we get so proud of ourselves,
如此引以为傲
we get so proud of ourselves
如此引以为傲
when we get away.
逃脱之后
i believe that we've got it wrong, got it wrong.
我相信，终究还是我们错了
we'll realize when it's said and done, said and done,
一切尘埃落定后，我们会意识到
that in our words we've lost so much more
换言之，我们遗失错过的
than we've ever won.
比得到的多太多
it's in our nature to complicate,
搞砸是我们的天性
but in the end it's the casualties
但最终，是未知的意外
that carry all the weight.
来背负所有后果
