Two Lights (Album Version)

what is courage
什麼是勇氣
is it brave
是勇敢嗎
what are lions
獅子是什麼
i've only seen them in parades
我只在遊行中見到過它們
how is love supposed to read
愛應該怎麼讀
in a footnote of history
在歷史的註腳中
what's a tap on your shoulder
是誰在輕拍你的肩
that you're afraid to look over
正是你害怕回頭看的

士兵倒在消防行動中
a soldier's down in a fire fight
沒人能看到我

這就意味著獨自一個人
no one can look me in the eye
撕掉我的心
this is what it means to be alone.
把它餵給獅子

為了這個願望，今晚我請求你
tear out my heart
不要對我仁慈
feed it to lions
但是請饒恕我，我的驕傲
for this one wish i beg you this tonight
我要去兜風

如果你發現他要回家
show me no mercy
當我在角落醒來
but spare me my pride
我就知道一切就緒
i'm going for a drive
只要給我兩個打火機
and if you find out he's coming home
他很年輕，只有23歲
when i come around the corner
不是必須去
i'll know that it's alright
但這正是他想要成為的人

就像每一個兒子都是獨一無二的
just leave me two lights
一天他和我說

仔細看來自由什麼都不是
he was young just 23
每個人都可以站到他的肩膀上

我要給你寫多如山的信
didn't have to go
每一封都會更好
but it was the man he wanted to be
我知道我再也不會孤單了
like every son he was an only one
撕掉我的心

把它餵給獅子
one day he came to me, said
為了這個願望，今晚我請求你
freedoms nothing to look over
不要對我仁慈

但是請饒恕我，我的驕傲
till each man can stand upon its shoulder
我要去兜風
i'll right you mountains of letters
如果你發現他要回家
each one a little bit better
當我在角落醒來

我就知道一切就緒
and know i'll never be alone
只要給我兩個打火機

沉默的天使
tear out my heart
照亮前方的路

就像哨兵警戒著街道
feed it to lions
在藉用時間的大道上

我差不多到家了
for this one wish i beg you this tonight
太陽即將升起

我知道
show me no mercy
我整夜的兜風

前方就是我們的轉角
but spare me my pride
我還活著但也死了

我開車穿過停車牌
i'm going for a drive
我轉過我的頭

抬起我的眼
and if you find out he's coming home
我的眼睛在燃燒

撕掉我的心
when i come around the corner
把它餵給獅子

為了這個願望，今晚我請求你
i'll know that it's alright
不要對我仁慈

請饒恕我，我的驕傲
leave me two lights
我要去兜風

silent angels
light the road up ahead
as the sentries guard the way

on the avenue of borrowed time

i'm almost home
the sun's to rise
i got to know
i've been driving all the night
there's our corner up ahead
i' m alive and i am dead

i drive right through the stop sign
i turn my head
as i lift my eyes
my eyes burn
tear out my heart
feed it to lions

for this one wish i beg you this tonight

show me no mercy

spare me my pride

i'm going for a drive
