THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT album cover

Cassandra

From the album THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT(2024)
I was in my new house placing daydreams
我在新房里编织着白日梦
Patching up the crack along the wall
修补墙上那道裂痕
I pass it and lose track of what I'm saying
我走过 却忘了要说些什么
'Cause that's where I was when I got the call
因为那正是我接到电话的地方
When the first stone's thrown there's screamin'
第一块石头掷出时 尖叫声划破天际
In the streets there's a ragin' riot
街头暴动正喧嚣
When it's, "Burn the bitch", they're shrieking
"烧死那贱人" 他们尖声叫嚷
When the truth comes out it's quiet
真相揭晓时 却只剩沉默
So they killed Cassandra first
他们先对卡珊德拉下了手
'Cause she feared the worst
因为她总在害怕 最坏的结局
And tried to tell the town
我试着向整座城诉说
So they filled my cell with snakes, I regret to say
他们在我牢房放满蛇 我后悔莫及
Do you believe me now?
你现在相信了吗?
I was in my tower weaving nightmares
我在高塔里编织着梦魇
Twisting all my smiles into snarls
笑容扭曲成狰狞
They say what doesn't kill you makes you aware
他们说杀不死你的让你更清醒
What happens if it becomes who you are?
若这成了你的全部 该如何是好
So they killed Cassandra first
他们先对卡珊德拉下了手
'Cause she feared the worst
因为她总害怕结局太伤悲
And tried to tell the town
我试着向小镇诉说
So they set my life in flames, I regret to say
他们点燃我生命火焰 悔恨却已蔓延
Do you believe me now?
你现在可愿相信?
They knew, they knew, they knew the whole time
他们心知肚明 一直心知肚明
That I was onto somethin'
我隐约触碰到爱的轮廓
The family, the pure greed, the Christian chorus line
家族 贪婪 圣歌交织成线
They all said nothin'
他们都劝我别再执着
Blood's thick, but nothin' like a payroll
血脉虽浓 却敌不过金钱的重量
Bet they never spared a prayer for my soul
他们何曾为我灵魂祈祷片刻
You can mark my words that I said it first
我早说过 你会记得
In a mourning warning no one heard
哀伤的警讯无人倾听
I patched up the crack along the wall
我修补墙上那道裂痕
I pass it and lose track of what I'm saying
我走过却忘了要说些什么
'Cause that's where I was when I lost it all
就在那一刻 我失去所有
So they killed Cassandra first
于是他们先对卡珊德拉下了手
'Cause she feared the worst
因为她总害怕结局最坏
And tried to tell the town
我试着向整座城倾诉
So they filled my cell with snakes, I regret to say
他们在我牢笼里放满毒蛇,我悔不当初
Do you believe me now?
你现在可愿相信我?
I was onto somethin'
我差点就抓住那道光
They all said nothin'
他们都沉默不语
Blood's thick, but nothin' like a payroll
血脉虽浓 却敌不过金钱的重量
Bet they never spared a prayer for my soul
他们何曾为我灵魂祈祷片刻
You can mark my words that I said it first
我早说过 你会记得
In a mourning warning no one heard
哀鸣警醒却无人倾听
No one heard
无人听闻
Not a single word was heard
沉默无言 只剩风声
When the first stone's thrown there's screamin'
第一块石头砸下时 尖叫声划破天际
In the streets there's a ragin' riot
街头暴动正喧嚣
When it's "Burn the bitch", they're shriekin'
"烧死那贱人" 他们尖叫着
When the truth comes out it's quiet
真相浮现时总是无声
It's so quiet
四下寂静无声
