from this second storey window
二楼窗前
i can hear the churchbells calling out my name
我听见了教堂钟声的呼唤
this table is set for one
这张桌子容不下第二人
even angels would be homesick in this forsaken town
在这被众神遗弃的村庄 天使也禁不住望乡
on random notes of parchment
牛皮纸上潦乱的笔记
im scrawling my existence
是我在宣扬我的存在
dressed in white.
一袭洁白
this candle radiates throughout the nite
烛光贯穿黑夜
and its never burning out.
永不熄灭
never burning out
永不熄灭
from this second storey window
二楼窗前
i can hear the children down on main street
我听见孩子们在街道上
theyre singing their songs tonite
将他们的主题曲放声歌唱
in the shadows i will listen
我躲在阴影下 聆听他们的动向
mr higginson, am i not good enough for the world?
希金森先生 是否我并未做出足够的贡献 给这个世界
am i destined only to die
是否我的死亡
the same way that i lived -- in seclusion?
也注定难逃藉藉无名 恰如我的一生
but high up on this mountain
可登上这座高山
i can almost see your lonely windowsill
我却仿佛能见到你孤寂的窗沿
that ill carry you off tonite
今晚 我将带你高飞远走
theres a ghost in your old bedroom
你的卧室里 潜伏着梦魇
and a candle burning bright
和一盏蜡烛绽放着灼人的光线
if i die tomorrow
如果明天就是我生命的句点
would this song live on forever?
这首诗可否会流芳千年
