歌词
We are all homeless in one way or another
说到底,我们都无家可归。
Whether we've lost ourselves to lust
我们是否曾将自己迷失在欲望中,
Inflamed passions for things desired; forgotten the other
倾注所有热情追寻欲望,忽视其余一切。
Wandering aimlessly, in love with something
漫无目的地巡游,
that will only collect dust
爱上那些与尘土无异的事物。
Or perhaps we've been led into the wilderness
或者我们只是为光彩夺目的爱人倾倒
by some radiant lover, just to be left out in the cold
被引入了荒野,又被抛弃在了一片冰冷孤寂中。
A distant memory, and the warmth of home
一段遥远的回忆,触不可及的温暖。
What are we then to do?
我们又能做什么?!又能去往何方?!
'Cause in the heat of bliss, we swore we would never love another
在内心雀跃之际,我们曾宣誓永远忠于彼此。
There was truth and dignity in that oath
而现在,这誓言只是一副逐渐衰败的空壳;
Can there be any hope for their retention, in its breaking?
我们是否还能抱有誓言延续的奢望?
That even while being disavowed, we recognize humanity
只有在被撇开的时候,我们才辨出了人性。
We have all made mistakes,
我们都曾犯下过错。
And G-d, I've made mistakes
对不起,我犯下了过错。
But my mistakes haven't made me
但,我的过错从未使我。。。(有所长进)
Oh fallen acorn, lost and alone
哎,落下的橡实,迷惘、孤单。
Can you still be kissed by fire, give up your seed
你能否经受火焰的洗礼再次敞开自己的内心,
And spring up into a towering, mighty oak?
然后成长得挺拔、坚毅?
We've been led into the wilderness
我们都曾tmd为光彩夺目的爱人倾倒
by some radiant lover, just to be left in the cold
被引入了荒野,又被抛弃在了一片死寂中。
A distant memory, the warmth of home
一段遥远的回忆,不属于我的温暖
'Cause in the heat of bliss, we swore we would never love another
在内心雀跃之际,我们曾宣誓永远忠于彼此。
We've all made mistakes, every last one of us
我们都曾犯下过错。没有任何例外。
And just because we've told a lie, can we not still grow to be honest?
凭什么!只因我们说过的一个谎言,我们至今都没有变得真诚?
Oh fallen acorn, lost and alone
哎,落下的橡实,迷惘、孤单。
Can you still be kissed by fire, give up your seed
你能否经受火焰的洗礼再次敞开自己的内心,
And spring up into a towering, mighty oak?
然后成长得挺拔、坚毅?
Thrown off kilter
均衡早就被破坏了。
None of us would have thought
我们从未想到
We'd be who we are now
我们竟会成为现在的我们。
When we were still little
当我们年少轻狂的时候,
Eyes wide to possibility
我们披雨寻阳,试图一探人间。
Who could have known
谁有曾料到
That we'd witness such depravity
我们会经历这样的堕落
