歌词
On a street of old bones
在遗骸铺就的街道上
Dust masquerades as skin
尘土伪装成了表皮
Time turns itself to stone
时光凝结作了石像
Nothing left to lose and nothing left to win
失去也无所谓,赢得也无所谓
Desires to break and deconstruct
纵有着摧毁解构的热情
I defend the middle ground
我仍坚守着中立的阵地
Every battle I've ever fought
可我厮杀的每一场战争
Has either been lost or bought
却要么败北,要么被收买
And in the rhythm of your voice
在你吟唱的音律当中
I find space to rejoice
我找到了欢愉的依归
My complicated illusions
可我那些层叠掩映的错觉
Leave me with no choice
已让我无所适从
Even the answers that I dream
即便是在梦境里追寻的答案
Are riddled with doubt and holes
也布满了怀疑与破绽
Illusions are complicated
那幻觉如此错综复杂
Redacted and retold
被捏造而成,又历经复述
And in the rhythm of your voice
在你吟唱的音律当中
I find space to rejoice
我找到了欢愉的依归
My complicated illusions
可我那些层叠掩映的错觉
Leave me with no choice
已让我无所适从
And in the margins of the page
在书页的角落里
Truth hides but leaves a trace
真相被掩埋,却犹有踪迹
My complicated illusions
我那些层叠掩映的错觉
Are now no more than faith
如今不过是一簇念想
(关于贝斯手Nicky Wire病逝的母亲)
