How I wish I could surrender my soul
多渴望和盘交出灵魂
Shed the clothes that become my skin
撕掉早已蜕变成皮肤的外衣
See a liar that burns within my needing
看到在我欲望中燃烧的伪君子
How I wish Id chosen darkness from cold
多渴望选择寒冷黑夜
How I wish Id screamed out loud
多渴望嘶声呐喊
Instead Ive found no meaning
而非苟且于无意义的生活
I guess its time I run far,far away,find comfort in ain
或许我该远走高飞,苦中作乐
All pleasures the same,it just keeps me from trouble
所有的快乐不过如此,让我暂别烦扰
Hides my true shape like Dorian Gray
隐藏真我原形,犹如道林·格雷
Ive heard what they say,but Im not here for trouble我听到流言四起,但我不是来自寻烦恼
Its more than just words,its just tears and rain
此中远非言语可及,不过是泪和雨
How I wish I could walk through the doors of my mind多渴望穿越心门
Hold memory close at hand
双手紧握记忆
Help me understand the years
助我了解岁月经年
How I wish I could choose between Heaven and Hell多渴望能游走于天堂与地狱之间
How I wish I would save my soul
多渴望能拯救灵魂
Im so cold from fear
而恐惧让我身心战栗
(这是英国歌手James Blunt 专辑Back to Bedlam里推出的单曲,歌词积极向上,充满斗志。)
