Staring At The Fire
Mike Posner
Staring At The Fire 歌詞
[Verse 1]
我總是很難保持安靜
Ive always had trouble staying still
我站在我討厭的東西的旁邊,只為了那效果
I stand next to what I hate just for the trill
從我的百萬美元賬單上用了人生的第一個0.25美分
Spent the first quarter of my life on a million dollar bill
因為我沒辦法停止凝視火焰
Cause I cant stop staring at the fire
我們要把十字架和屋子建高
Weve got our crosses and our buildings, build em tall
我的書變成的牆裡的一塊磚頭
And my books another brick inside the wall
我們確實令自己變得忙碌,但我們做的事並不多
We sure make ourselves feel busy, but we dont do much at all
除了坐在那裡盯著火焰
Except sit around and stare at the fire
抗議者聚集在街頭
And the protesters have gathered in the streets
對面的街區裡全是警察
Opposite, a block full of police
可是他們和我們都一樣,有同樣的問題
But they both have the same problem with God as you and me
就是他們不能停下盯著火焰
Its that they just cant stop staring at the fire
看著它燃燒,燃燒,燃燒
[Chorus]
看著它燃燒,燃燒,燃燒
Watch it burn, burn, burn
看著它燃燒,燃燒,燃燒
Watch it burn, burn, burn
看著它燃燒,燃燒,燃燒
Watch it burn, burn, burn
去了一個離這裡很遠的修道院
Watch it burn, burn, burn
一個坐在毯子上的老人站起來了
[Verse 2]
他招手示意我往前走,然後他在我耳邊輕聲說
And to an ashram a million miles from here
孩子,你要停止盯著火焰看
An old man on a blanket appeared
但是我所有的意識都一次沖出來了
He waved me to come closer, and he whispered in my ear
他們告訴我:“孩子,真的沒有那麼熱”
'Son, youve got to stop staring at the fire'
把你的焦慮和勇氣都發洩出來
But all my ego trips come in flocks
現在的我站在了火裡
And they tell me, 'Kid, its really not that hot'
看著我燃燒,燃燒,燃燒
Take your anxiety and your guilt, just throw it all on top
看著我燃燒,燃燒,燃燒
Now I cant stop standing in the fire
看著我燃燒,燃燒,燃燒
[Chorus]
看著我燃燒,燃燒,燃燒
Oh, watch me burn, burn, burn
看著我燃燒,燃燒,燃燒
Watch me burn, burn, burn
看著我燃燒,燃燒,燃燒
Watch me burn, burn, burn
看著我燃燒,燃燒,燃燒
Watch me burn, burn, burn
看著我燃燒,燃燒,燃燒
Oh, watch me burn, burn, burn
Watch me burn, burn, burn
Watch me burn, burn, burn
Watch me burn, burn, burn
