The Prophecy
Album: THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT(2024)
Hand on the throttle
手握油门不放松
Thought I caught lightning in a bottle
我以为抓住了瓶中的闪电
Oh, but it's gone again
可转眼又消散不见
And it was written
命中早已注定
I got cursed like Eve got bitten
我像夏娃般被命运咬伤
Oh, was it punishment?
哦，这是惩罚吗？
Pad around when I get home
回家后我轻轻踱步
I guess a lesser woman would've lost hope
换作别人或许早已心灰意冷
A greater woman wouldn't beg
更骄傲的灵魂 怎会低头乞怜
But I looked to the sky and said
我抬头望天轻声叹
Please
求求你
I've been on my knees
我跪地祈求
Change the prophecy
改写命运的预言
Don't want money
不贪恋那金银
Just someone who wants my company
不过是想有人陪在身旁
Let it once be me
让我也做一次主角
Who do I have to speak to
我该向谁倾诉心声
About if they can redo
若时光能重来
The prophecy?
预言在低语
Cards on the table
摊牌吧 别再躲藏
Mine play out like fools in a fable, oh
我们像童话里的傻瓜一样执着
It was sinking in
心渐渐沉沦
Sinking in, oh
深陷其中 哦
Slow is the quicksand
爱如流沙 缓缓沉下
Poison blood from the wound of the pricked hand
毒血从刺伤的掌心流淌
Oh, still I dream of him
啊，我仍梦见他身影
Please
求求你
I've been on my knees
我跪地祈求
Change the prophecy
改写命运的预言
Don't want money
不贪恋那金银
Just someone who wants my company
不过是想有人陪
Let it once be me
让我也拥有一次
Who do I have to speak to
我该向谁诉说心声
About if they can redo
若时光能重来
The prophecy?
预言终将成真
And I sound like an infant
而我像个孩子般呢喃
Feelin' like the very last drops of an ink pen
像钢笔里最后一滴墨 缓缓坠落
A greater woman stays cool
更强大的女人 从容不迫
But I howl like a wolf at the moon
而我像狼对月长嚎
And I look unstable
我摇摇欲坠的模样
Gathered with a coven round a sorceress' table
围坐在女巫桌边 我们结成了密会
A greater woman has faith
更坚强的女人 心中有信仰
But even statues crumble if they're made to wait
就连石像也会在等待中崩塌
I'm so afraid I sealed my fate
我多害怕 命运已注定
No sign of soulmates
命中注定的人 迟迟未现身
I'm just a paperweight
我像纸镇般沉甸甸
In shades of greige
灰蒙色调里
Spending my last coin so someone will tell me
花光最后一枚硬币 只为听一句安慰
It'll be ok
一切都会好起来
Ooh
哦
Ooh
哦
Ooh
哦
Ooh
哦
Please
求求你
I've been on my knees
我跪地祈求已久
Change the prophecy
改写命运的预言
Don't want money
不贪恋金银
Just someone who wants my company
不过是想有人陪
Let it once be me
让我也拥有一次
Who do I have to speak to
我该向谁诉说心声
About if they can redo
若时光能重来
The prophecy?
预言终将成真
Who do I have to speak to
我该向谁倾诉心声
To change the prophecy?
改写命运的预言？
