Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains)
Arcade Fire - Sprawl II （Mountains Beyond Mountains）
They heard me singing and they told me to stop,
他们听到了我的歌唱便让我停下
Quit these pretentious things and just punch the clock,
“别做这些自我的事了，按部就班工作吧”
These days, my life, I feel it has no purpose,
这些日子，我的生活，我感到一切没有了目标
But late at night the feelings swim to the surface.
可每到夜晚种种思绪在心头萦绕
Cause on the surface the city lights shine,
城市的灯光好似在心头闪耀
They're calling at me, "come and find your kind."
他们好像在呼唤着我，“来吧，来找你的同类伙伴。”
Sometimes I wonder if the world's so small,
有时我想着“这世界就真的这么小吗？
That we can never get away from the sprawl,
小到我们就逃不出这个城市的扩展
Living in the sprawl,
生活在这个扩展的城市中
Dead shopping malls rise like mountains beyond mountains,
死气沉沉的超市像一座座高山耸立起来
And there's no end in sight,
视线之下没有尽头
I need the darkness someone please cut the lights.
我需要些黑暗，有谁可以把光亮消失吗
We rode our bikes to the nearest park,
我们骑车去最近的公园
Sat under the swings, we kissed in the dark,
坐在秋千下，在黑暗中相吻
We shield our eyes from the police lights,
我们挡住眼睛不看警车的灯光
We run away, but we don't know why,
我们奔跑着离开，可是我们不知道为何要这样做
And like a mirror these city lights shine,
这城市的灯火闪耀着像一面镜子
They're screaming at us, "we don't need your kind."
我们好像在向我们尖声吼叫，“我们不需要你们这样的人。”
Sometimes I wonder if the world's so small,
有时我想着“这世界就真的这么小吗？
That we can never get away from the sprawl,
小到我们就逃不出这个城市的扩展
Living in the sprawl,
生活在这个扩展的城市中
Dead shopping malls rise like mountains beyond mountains,
死气沉沉的超市像一座座高山耸立起来
And there's no end in sight,
视线之下没有尽头
I need the darkness someone please cut the lights.
我需要些黑暗，有谁可以把光亮消失吗
They heard me singing and they told me to stop,
他们听到了我的歌唱便让我停下
Quit these pretentious things and just punch the clock.
“别做这些自我的事了，按部就班工作吧”
Sometimes I wonder if the world's so small,
有时我想着“这世界就真的这么小吗？
Can we ever get away from the sprawl?
我们能逃离这城市无尽的蔓延吗？”
Living in the sprawl,
