- Sufjan Stevens The Ascension 歌詞
- Sufjan Stevens
- When I am dead and the light leaves my breast
Nothing to be told, nothing to confess
當我死去光芒離開我的胸膛
Let the record show what I couldn't quite confess
沒有什麼可說的也不需要懺悔
For by living for myself I was living for unrest
讓我的唱片告訴世人那些我無法坦白的過去
Then the evidence came back
因為曾經的我只為自己而活活於動亂之中
In a chariot of vindication
接著證據又重回
Something to behold
在辯護的戰車中
Glorious in its path
有些東西需要被看見
But the prophecy fell back as it gave to me an invitation
以自己的方式美麗
Show them what is right
當預言對我發出邀請它卻向後退去
Show them what is blessed
讓他們知道什麼才是對的
But now it strikes me far too late again
讓他們知道什麼才被上帝祝福
That I was asking far too much of everyone around me
And now it strikes me far too late again
現在一切又再一次將我提醒
That I should answer for myself as the Ascension falls upon me
提醒我已經對於身邊的人要求了太多
So I should be sad of a life that ? its mess
現在一切又再一次將我提醒
For once your life was sold it can never be possessed
提醒我應該耶穌升天降臨於我時我應該為我自己做出答复
You were selfishlly as a continent
You were finally at your best
所以我應該對這樣糟糕的生活表示傷心
For your favourite, for yourself
只要你的人生被售出你便不能再擁有
Your selfishness was blessed
你就像孤獨的大陸一般自私
Then Cordelia came back
終於你找到了最好的自己
In a ?hallucination
為了你最愛的人為了你自己
Something to rejoice
你的自私也會被讚頌
Glorious in its ?
然後科迪莉亞回來了
But the prophecy was a pantomime as it gave to me a recusation
在幻聽之中
Show them what is right
值得歡樂
Show them what is best
But now it strikes me far too late again
當預言教會我逃避之後它便已經如啞劇般了卻了意義
That I was asking far too much of everyone around me
讓他們知道什麼才是正確的
And now it strikes me far too late again
讓他們知道什麼才是被祝福的
That I should answer for myself as the Ascension falls upon me
And now it frightens me, a foot against my chest
現在一切又再一次將我提醒
To think I was asking for a reason explaning my everything ?
提醒我已經對於身邊的人要求了太多
And now it frightens me, the dreams that I possessed
現在一切又再一次將我提醒
To think I was acting like a believer, when I was just angry and depressed
提醒我應該耶穌升天降臨於我時我應該為我自己做出答复
And to everything there is no meaning
A season of pain and hopelessness
現在我被嚇到了彷彿有步履踏過我的胸膛
I shouldn't have looked for revelation
我才想起找一個理由去為我的一切辯解
I should have resigned myself to this
現在我害怕了那些我擁有的夢想
I thought I could change the world around me
才想起來我一直裝作一個信仰者每當我憤怒絕望之時
I thought I could change the world for best
I thought I was called in convocation
一切在這兒都失去了意義
I thought I was sanctified and blessed
整個季節都只有痛苦與無助
But now it strikes me to know the truth at last
我不該尋求上帝的啟示
That everything comes from consummation
我應該把自己託付於此
And everything comes with consequence
我曾以為我可以改變這個世界
[That I did it all with ?
我曾以為我可以讓世界變得最好
While you killed it all with for ? holiness
我曾以為我是典禮上被冊封的人
What now? What now?
我曾以為我神聖而被祝福著
What now?
現在我才被擊中才懂得了真相
What now?
一切都因為初次的完事才誕生於世
What now?
一切的出現都帶來它自己的麻煩
What now? What now?
