Afterlife

Afterlife, oh my God, what an awful word
“來生”, 唉......多麼令人心碎的字眼.
After all the breath and the pill and the fires that burn
等到生息斷絕、藥物用盡、烈火驟燃
And after all this time, and after all the ambulances go
等著所有的時日結束,等救護車呼嘯而過
And after all the hangers -on are done hanging on to the dead lights
等著一切虛情假意真正被高懸在天邊
Of the afterglow.
那預兆死亡的霞光之上
Ive gotta know,
我總算略知一二.
Can we work it out?
是否為時已晚？
We scream and shout till we work it out
我們尖叫或是悲號著接受這一切.
Can we just work it out?
可我們真能輕鬆釋懷？
Scream and shout till we work it out?
單靠失常的宣洩以謀求解脫？
Till we work it out, till we work it out
無濟於事......或是遺忘
Till we work it out, till we work it out
身陷困境... ..難抒離殤
Afterlife, I think I saw what happens next
來生,我想我會成為先知
It was just a glimpse of you, like looking through a window
我得以偷偷地瞥見你，就像我總凝視窗外
Or a shallow sea
或是探尋淺淺的海灣
Could you see me?
而您能看見我嗎？
And after all this time
在永恆之後。
Its like nothing else we used to know
這與我們認知中的一切有別
After all the hangers-on are done hanging on to the dead lights
等著一切虛與委蛇真正被高懸在天邊
Of the afterglow
那預兆終結的餘暉之中
Ive gotta know,
我總算知曉
Can we work it out?
我們何去何從.
Lets scream and shout till we work it out
就放任我們哭喊吧......我們唯一的反抗
Can we just work it out?
就這樣
Scream and shout till we work it out?
長歌當哭？
But you say
你卻說
Oh
孩子,
When love is gone
愛何時逃脫？
Where does it go?
愛何處可藏？
And you say
你又問我
Oh
孩子,
When love is gone
愛何時逃脫？
Where does it go?
愛何處可藏？
And where do we go?
我們呢？
Where do we go?
我們走向何方？
Where do we go?
我們走向何方？
Where do we go?
我們走向何方？
Where do we go?
我們走向何方？
Where do we go?
我們走向何方？
Where do we go?
我們走向何方？
Where do we go?
我們無處可藏！
And after this
終於 終於,一切結束.
Can it last another night?
而你能在夢中再多呆一晚嗎？
After all the bad advice
儘管他們總是勸我醒來
Had nothing at all to do with life
我已經無力再續此生
Ive gotta know,
我得知道，
Can we work it out?
現在是否為時已晚？
Scream and shout till we work it out?
我們尖叫或是悲號著忘卻.
Can we just work it out?
現在是否無濟於事？
Scream and shout till we work it out?
我們尖叫或是悲號著解脫.

是下一世嗎？
Its just an afterlife with you
是與你共度的來生嗎？
Its just an afterlife
來生...？

下一世...
Its just an afterlife
媽媽...
