[00:53.52]以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供

[00:53.52]In the corner of the morning in the past

[00:58.71]在往昔清晨的角落

[00:58.71]I would sit and blame the master first and last

[01:03.92]我静坐 始终怨天尤人

[01:03.92]All the roads were straight and narrow

[01:06.45]条条道路笔直狭窄

[01:06.45]And the prayers were small and yellow

[01:08.93]祈祷声微弱泛黄

[01:08.93]And the rumour spread that I was aging fast

[01:14.26]流言四起 说我急速衰老

[01:14.26]Then I ran across a monster who was sleeping

[01:17.92]偶遇树下酣睡的怪物

[01:17.92]By a tree

[01:19.37]在树旁

[01:19.37]And I looked and frowned and the monster was me

[01:32.25]蹙眉端详 怪物竟是我模样

[01:32.25]Well I said hello and I said hello

[01:37.39]我轻声问候 又再次问好

[01:37.39]And I asked why not and I replied I don't know

[01:42.57]追问为何不 却答不知道

[01:42.57]So we asked a simple black bird who was happy as can be

[01:47.79]询问欢愉的黑鸟 它正恣意逍遥

[01:47.79]And he laughed insane and quipped kahlil gibran

[01:52.95]它癫狂大笑 引纪伯伦诗谣

[01:52.95]And I cried for all the others till the day was nearly through

[01:58.18]我为众生悲泣 直至暮色将消

[01:58.18]For I realized that god's a young man too

[03:03.06]蓦然惊觉 神明亦正年少

[03:03.06]Oh I said so long and I waved bye-bye

[03:08.40]我挥手道别 说着珍重再见

[03:08.40]And I smashed my soul and traded my mind

[03:13.72]击碎魂魄 典当了执念

[03:13.72]Got laid by a young bordello

[03:16.43]与半梦半醒的风尘女子缠绵

[03:16.43]Who was vaguely half asleep

[03:18.87]她眼眸朦胧似睡非睡

[03:18.87]For which my reputation swept back home in drag

[03:24.06]为此我的声名狼藉 如戏服般拖曳归乡

[03:24.06]And the moral of this magic spell

[03:26.74]而这魔咒的警示寓言

[03:26.74]Negotiates my hide

[03:29.38]正啃噬着我的皮囊

[03:29.38]When god did take my logic for a ride

[03:36.72]当上帝嘲弄我荒唐的逻辑

[03:36.72]Riding along

[05:42.11]在沉沦中游荡

[05:42.11]He swallowed his pride and puckered his lips

[05:45.79]他咽下骄傲 抿紧双唇

[05:45.79]And showed me the leather belt round his hips

[05:49.41]他向我展示腰间那条皮带

[05:49.41]My knees were shaking my cheeks aflame

[05:52.66]我双膝颤抖 脸颊发烫

[05:52.66]He said you'll never go down to the gods again

[05:55.47]他说"你永远不能再堕落"

[05:55.47]Turn around go back

[05:56.93]转身回去吧

[05:56.93]He struck the ground a cavern appeared

[06:00.49]他击打地面 裂开深渊

[06:00.49]And I smelt the burning pit of fear

[06:04.10]我闻到恐惧燃烧的硫磺

[06:04.10]We crashed a thousand yards below

[06:07.29]我们坠入万丈深渊

[06:07.29]I said do it again do it again

[06:09.93]我说再来一次 再来一次

[06:09.93]Turn around go back

[06:11.27]转身回去吧

[06:11.27]His nebulous body swayed above

[06:14.80]他朦胧的身影在上方摇曳

[06:14.80]His tongue swollen with devil's love

[06:18.47]舌尖肿胀 浸满恶魔的爱意

[06:18.47]The snake and I a venom high

[06:21.37]毒蛇与我共赴迷幻之巅

[06:21.37]I said do it again do it again

[06:24.22]我说再来一次 再来一次

[06:24.22]Turn around go back

[06:25.82]转身回去吧

[06:25.82]Breathe breathe breathe deeply

[06:28.70]呼吸 呼吸 深深呼吸

[06:28.70]And I was seething breathing deeply

[06:32.51]而我正喘息着 深深呼吸

[06:32.51]Spitting sentry horned and tailed

[06:36.47]吐着信子的守卫 头角狰狞

[06:36.47]Waiting for you

[06:41.04]正等着你
