歌词
Chapter 3: Part One
Separation is normal
离别是一件轻而易举的事
When asked why people break up
当你问起人们为何分开的时候
There is not one simple answer
永远得不到唯一的答案
A sense of self-knowledge and intentional awareness
自我意识膨胀,心中故意设防
Is a catalyst between the communication of two partners
这是两瓶焚毁感情的催化剂
Hoping to achieve emotional intimacy
那样渴望着两颗心可以紧贴在一起
But it can also expose desires
却忽视了日渐露骨的占有欲
That are not shared between said partners
依赖就这样变成伤害
Sometimes relationships end
有时,一段关系就此终结
Because partners evolve over time
因为两个人进展得太快
Sometimes relationships end
有时,一段感情走到尽头
Because one partner does not feel deserving of love
因为其中一人承受不起那样沉重的爱
Sometimes they end
有时,他们就这样松开了彼此的手
Due to infidelity or due to thoughts of such actions
因为他们的枕边或心里,正躺着另一个人
And sometimes, maybe more often than not, they just end
还有时...嗯,说不清理由,但就是结束了
Similarly to people
人与人就是如此
Sometimes love can die unexpectedly
爱总是猝不及防地碎了满地
Because sometimes the ego of one partner can suffocate the shared joy
甚至只是因为,有一点点缺乏分享快乐的冲动
Everything ends
一切就这样忧伤地落幕
不知自己身在何处
I don't know where I stand
看着外壳慢慢剥落
So just watch me fall apart
我拼命去接住你盛满了爱的心脏
'Cause I know I break my hands
它太过沉重,让我的手心布满创伤
Just holding your heavy heart
撑起这份爱的,究竟是心甘情愿
Are we gonna be emotionally compromised
还是委曲求全?
Or will we compromise emotion?
爱曾轰轰烈烈,也曾雪上加霜,可我只记得,一切刚刚开始时的那丝温暖的暧昧
The hot and cold get old but the lukewarm we spit out
未来的某一天,我们究竟是会坦诚相待
Are we gonna be totally on opposite sides
还是刀剑相向?
Or will we comprise our devotion?
我希望我们的爱永不会过期
I wanted to stay away from our usual form
但也不必相互猜忌
But not live in doubt
我不想总是在犯错后才懂得补救
我只是为自己的渴望找一个理由
I don't wanna learn my lesson
我想知道,是不是只有积极地活着才配拥有爱
I want to learn what this death is
也许我该那样试试
I wanna know what being alive can feel like
你愿意去理解我吗?
And I'll be alright
就像我去理解你那样?
Do you wanna understand?
也许我们还可以重新开始?
Do you wanna be understood?
毕竟,爱还在这里
Can we somehow apprehend
手中还残留着彼此的温度
Our love
两颗破碎不堪的心
Our hands
被层层高架隔离
Our hearts are no good
这也许并非我们的本意
We built these gallows
现在想来,我们对爱的理解实在太过肤浅
Before we knew what they were for
我希望你明白,我不配拥有你的爱:(
We're feeling shallow
婚礼上我们不合时宜地一袭黑衣,为我们用尊严换来的爱情哀悼
I hope you know I don't want you to love me anymore
我们已经明白,这是爱情,却没有任何感情
或许只是两段错位的同情
So wear black at our wedding to mourn the loss of my dignity
你是否真的能够理解?
And make sure our love is out of pure empathy
又是否愿意为我敞开心扉?
And not just misplaced pity
冰释前嫌的那一天真的存在吗?
Do you wanna understand?
我们的爱已经开始掉色
Do you wanna be understood?
紧握的手也渐渐松开
Can we somehow apprehend
心脏早已不再有曾经的光彩
Our love
你真的愿意走进我吗?
Our hands
我走进的,又真的是你吗?
Our hearts are no good
为了相拥的那一刻
Do you wanna understand?
我会努力改变自己
Do you wanna be understood?
你说你也会
Can we somehow apprehend
而事实上,我们从不错过每一个逃避的机会...
We'll fight
“当我问她,你能不能失去他时,
Our fight
她这样说,
And hide if we could
‘我想要成为你强颜欢笑的理由,
你对我微笑,遮住心口的伤痕
"When asked if she could live without him,
对我而言这就够了
She replied,
毕竟你只有伤心的时候,才会对我假假地笑一笑。’”
'Let me be your violent smile.
It might hurt, but you will look happy.
That is what I need.
I need to hurt you so you can be happy.'"
