Waiting Between Worlds

歌词
She was alone in a bathroom
她一个人待在浴室里
Eyes fixed like a statue
泪水装满她的眼眶 她美丽得如同一尊古典的女神雕塑
Wrists soar and her face bruised
她的手腕凸起 脸颊瘀紫
She just waiting for more bad news
她只是在等待更多的坏消息罢了
Now she’s white like a full moon
如今她素白,宛如满月
As she can’t bear what the test proves
只因这试验证实的结果,教她难以承受
At a crossroads,need a rescue
人生的十字路口 往往需要来自自己的营救
Cuz what she gonna do
这便是她要做的事儿
Hold on
坚持下去
She’s waiting between worlds
她正在两个世界之间等待
Wish she could tell’ em hold on
希望她能告诉他们坚持下去;
I’m waiting between worlds
我正在两个世界之间等待
He was looking at a pale sun rise
那是在过去,一个男人正在看一轮苍白的日出
Thinking back on the time gone by
男人回想起过去流逝的时光
How he loved and he laughed and he cried
他究竟是怎样去爱,怎样大笑,怎样大哭
How it all was a blink of an eye
所有的这一切都只是一眨眼的功夫
Now he's looking at the shake in his hand
现在他看着自己这双早已盖不住发颤了的手
Thinking how much more of life can he stand
思索着还有多长的人生路他需要去忍受
And how many years can he cram
又剩下多少个年头他可以用力去填满
Before his fate gives way and he's ash in the sand
在他变成混在沙尘里的灰烬之前
And is it the last stop on the road
这是这条道路的最后一站吗?
Or the next step in a path grand and unknown
还是说这仅是另一条道上的下一步?另一条道——未知,却康庄
A milestone formed from the fruits of his ways
一座由他一路的成果堆成的里程碑
Okay in what comes with the end of his days
就在那儿,和他最后的日子一起来到
But the sun's rays shine on a face so divine
但是太阳光照耀在脸上的感觉是如此神圣
"An angel of mine" goes the phrase in his mind“
只属于我的天使”——这样的念头忽然就出现在他的脑海里
Wise to the signs, knowing soon is the time
他敏锐地明白是时间了
But he isn't ready to say goodbye
但是他还没有准备好去说再见
Hold on
坚持下去
He's waiting between worlds
他正在两个世界之间等待
Wish he could tell 'em hold on
希望他能告诉他们坚持下去;
I'm waiting between worlds
我正在两个世界之间等待
4 AM when she woke to the sound
凌晨四点,当她被敲门声叫醒
Walked to the door in her bedtime gown
不顾脱睡袍,便走到门前去开门
Policeman said that her son's been found
警察说她的儿子他们找到了
He was shot in the head near a club downtown
他被枪击中了头部,死在了一家市中心的俱乐部旁
And the terror in her heart was profound
绝望的恐慌占据了她的心
Her legs broke down, she collapsed to the ground
可怜的女人,双腿丧失了支力,垮坐在地
As the walls were spinning all around
四面的墙壁都旋转了起来
He said "ma'am please you need to come right now"
警察继续说着——女士,请你现在随我去一趟,见见您的儿子
So she's sitting down dazed in a cop car
所以她现在正恍惚地坐在载着她的警车中间
Swerving through lanes in a maze where the crazed are
穿过逼仄的小巷,在满是疯子的迷宫里面逡巡
And locked in a haze from the shock
转角还是迷雾
Thoughts frayed as they stop with here stomach in knots
警车停住了,她的神经紧绷,五脏六腑也揪到了一起
"Lord please end the nightmare"“
上帝啊,请快结束这个噩梦吧,求求您。”
Are the words in her mind as they raced inside
这句话在她脑海中闪过;
"Lord please end the nightmare"“
上帝啊,请快结束这个噩梦吧,求求您。”
In the hospital ward in the eye of the storm
在医院的病房,在风暴眼
"Miss, I regret to say“
女士,很遗憾地告知您
There's not much hope I can give today
今日我没有什么希望可以带给您
The assault took much of his brain away
突然的枪击一瞬间便带走了他的大部分生命
We've done all we can but his state is grave
我们尽力了——但他伤势实在是太严重了
Best case here is he'll live on machines
不幸中的幸事是他还没有彻底离开您,只是要靠机器继续过活
With a vegetable quality of life foreseen
是让他作为植物人活下去?
Or instead we can pull out the feed
还是放弃这样的供养
Let him live his last moments and he'll pass in a dream"
让他享受他最后的时间,然后没有痛苦的结束?——您的选择
Hold on
坚持下去
We're waiting between worlds
我们正在两个世界之间等待
Wish she could tell 'em hold on
希望她能告诉他们坚持下去;
We're waiting between worlds
我们正在两个世界之间等待
Waiting between worlds that divide through a choice undefined
两个由一个未定义的被选中的东西二分的世界
A break in the line where all paths intertwine
所有的道路相互交织缠绕的时候,稍作休息
And no roads lead or progress behind
那儿,或许你已前行无路
And all signs read: "Know The Way. Decide."
那儿,或许所有的标语上都写着:“明了你要走的路,坚定点,踏上它。”
They say all things never truly die
他们说所有的事物都不会真正的消亡
But change in existence and switch design
它们只是改变了存在的形式
Like a drain to an ocean in which we're blind
就像一管排向大海的下水道,这些转变我们是看不见的——在那个领域人的眼是盲的
We remain set in motion from worlds combined
我们会继续存在,并迎来新的开始
So if I had one thought that would last and hold
所以,如果我能具一份永存永持的思想
Amass and fold over as it fastly grows
不断成长,不断积累
And fuse into life like a fabric sewn
再如同缝织布一样教它和我的人生熔合
Clasp the vast field whence existence flows
用这样得来的生命,拥抱一切来自未名地的存在,感受它们辽阔的,赤诚的涌流
I'd say settle down, of your grief let go
我会说都平静下来吧,把暗潮汹涌的悲哀全都排挤开来;
This world's nothing more than a magic show
这个世界什么也不是,不过是一场魔术秀
Though tragic at times and encased in woe
尽管悲哀有时,人生常伴困顿
It all works out, of this truth I know
一切都会过去。这便是我所知道的真理
