Final Straw
R.E.M.
Final Straw 歌詞
as i raise my head to broadcast my objection
當我抬起頭說出反對
as your latest triumph draws the final straw
你最新的勝利已經毫無意義
who died and lifted you up to perfection?
誰的死亡造就了你的偉大?
and what silenced me is written into law.
所謂的法律讓我沉默
i can't believe where circumstance has thrown me
我無法相信世界已經遺棄我
and i turn my head away
我把頭轉向別處
if i look i'm not sure that i could face you.
如果我看起來依舊畏懼你
not again. not today. not today.
不會再一次,至少不是今天,不是今天
if hatred makes a play on me tomorrow
也許明天仇恨會操縱我
and forgiveness takes a back seat to revenge
但是寬恕會在後座靜待
there's a hurt down deep that has not been corrected.
傷痛潛藏卻從未被治愈
there's a voice in me that says you will not win.
我身體中的聲音告訴我你不會取得勝利
and if i ignore the voice inside,
我無法忽視內心的聲音
raise a half glass to my home.
在家中舉起半杯碎夢
but it's there that i am most afraid,
這就是我內心最深處的恐懼
and forgetting doesn't hold. it doesn't hold.
但是遺忘不是解脫,它不是解脫
now i don't believe and i never did
我不相信我從未做過
that two wrongs make a right.
從謬論中尋得真理
if the world were filled with the likes of you
如果世界因你而立
then i'm putting up a fight. i'm putting up a fight.
那麼我要發動一場戰爭,我要發動一場戰爭
putting up a fight. make it right. make it right.
一場戰爭,讓世界回歸原本的模樣,原本的模樣
now love cannot be called into question.
現在愛也成了疑問
forgiveness is the only hope i hold.
我只想擁有寬恕
and love- love will be my strongest weapon.
愛,愛將會是我的救贖
i do believe that i am not alone.
我確信我並不孤獨
for this fear will not destroy me.
恐懼無法摧毀我
and the tears that have been shed
淚水靜靜地落下
it's knowing now where i am weakest
我最脆弱的深處
and the voice in my head. in my head.
聲音在我的腦海中浮現,我的腦海中
then i raise my voice up higher
我提高了音調
and i look you in the eye
我用眼睛注視著你
and i offer love with one condition.
只要一個條件,我就獻上我的愛
with conviction, tell me why.
以堅定的信念,告訴我為什麼
tell me why.
告訴我為什麼
tell me why.
告訴我為什麼
look me in the eye.
認真地看著我
tell me why.
告訴我為什麼
