[00:00:05] I was a stone in the dry lake bed

[00:00:09] 我是干涸湖床上的石头

[00:00:09] That a furious and tumbling river once fed

[00:00:14] 汹涌翻滚的河水曾经滋养过

[00:00:14] Like an apostle of Jesus with his hands on my head

[00:00:18] 就像耶稣的使徒把手放在我的头上

[00:00:18] Or another horse dead from exhaustion

[00:00:26] 或者又一匹累死的马

[00:00:26] The rings on your fingers the rings on your arms

[00:00:30] 你手上的戒指你手臂上的戒指

[00:00:30] The hoops in your ear or your necklace of charms

[00:00:34] 你耳朵上的耳环或是你的魅力项链

[00:00:34] Or the long lifelines that are traced in your palms

[00:00:39] 亦或是在你掌心描绘的生命线

[00:00:39] Are an elegant tale of misfortune

[00:00:47] 是一个关于不幸的优雅故事

[00:00:47] A reasonable thing would be to just walk away

[00:00:51] 合理的做法是转身离开

[00:00:51] Empty your pockets and call it a day

[00:00:56] 清空你的口袋到此为止

[00:00:56] If you've got religion then you know how to pray

[00:01:00] 如果你有信仰那你知道如何祈祷

[00:01:00] And if you don't you can always try thinking

[00:01:15] 如果你做不到你可以试着想想

[00:01:15] That was a thought that we fastened with wire

[00:01:19] 那是我们用绳索绑住的想法

[00:01:19] Bound it with cloth and placed in the fire

[00:01:24] 用布把它捆好放在火里

[00:01:24] That even the lowest river has a source somewhere higher

[00:01:29] 即使是最低的河流也有更高的源头

[00:01:29] A thousand miles from the ocean

[00:01:36] 远离大海千里之外

[00:01:36] There is a fear that will empty your heart

[00:01:40] 有一种恐惧会掏空你的心

[00:01:40] And devils that will fool you for taking it apart

[00:01:44] 恶魔会愚弄你让你支离破碎

[00:01:44] And you'll think it's the end but it's only the start

[00:01:49] 你以为这是结束但这只是开始

[00:01:49] Of a crippling and useless emotion

[00:01:57] 一种不堪一击的无用情感

[00:01:57] The town that you wound up in won't know your name

[00:02:01] 你去的那个小镇不会知道你的名字

[00:02:01] A circle of hungry wolves eying your claim

[00:02:06] 一圈饿狼虎视眈眈地盯着你

[00:02:06] Wearing your love like a proud lion's mane

[00:02:11] 你的爱就像一头骄傲的狮子

[00:02:11] Wondering what the hell was I thinking

[00:02:26] 不知道我到底在想什么

[00:02:26] You're going out bravely you're going out bad

[00:02:30] 你勇敢地走出去你会变得很坏

[00:02:30] With your head full of happy and your heart full of sad

[00:02:35] 你的脑袋里满是快乐心里却满是悲伤

[00:02:35] And all of the weapons you never realized you had

[00:02:39] 你从未意识到你拥有的武器

[00:02:39] Are piled up and buried behind you

[00:02:47] 都堆积在你的身后

[00:02:47] Maybe you'll lose one maybe you'll win

[00:02:51] 也许你会失去一个或许你会大获全胜

[00:02:51] Maybe your armor is perilously thin

[00:02:55] 也许你脆弱的铠甲不堪一击

[00:02:55] Or your endless and shameful appearance of sin

[00:03:00] 亦或是你那无尽可耻的罪孽

[00:03:00] Is only there to remind you

[00:03:08] 都是为了提醒你

[00:03:08] If it wasn't so dark if it wasn't so late

[00:03:12] 如果天没有那么黑如果没有那么晚

[00:03:12] I'd be much more inclined to acknowledge my fate

[00:03:17] 我会更愿意认命

[00:03:17] It's hard to accept it but it's harder to hate

[00:03:21] 接受现实很难但心怀怨恨更难

[00:03:21] Maybe it's just my heart sinking

[00:03:26] 也许只是我的心在慢慢下沉
