Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains)
Arcade Fire - Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains)
They heard me singing and they told me to stop,
他們聽到了我的歌唱便讓我停下
Quit these pretentious things and just punch the clock ,
“別做這些自我的事了,按部就班工作吧”
These days, my life, I feel it has no purpose,
這些日子,我的生活,我感到一切沒有了目標
But late at night the feelings swim to the surface.
可每到夜晚種種思緒在心頭縈繞
Cause on the surface the city lights shine,
城市的燈光好似在心頭閃耀
They're calling at me, 'come and find your kind.'
他們好像在呼喚著我,“來吧,來找你的同類夥伴。”
Sometimes I wonder if the world's so small,
有時我想著“這世界就真的這麼小嗎?
That we can never get away from the sprawl,
小到我們就逃不出這個城市的擴展
Living in the sprawl ,
生活在這個擴展的城市中
Dead shopping malls rise like mountains beyond mountains,
死氣沉沉的超市像一座座高山聳立起來
And there's no end in sight,
視線之下沒有盡頭
I need the darkness someone please cut the lights.
我需要些黑暗,有誰可以把光亮消失嗎
We rode our bikes to the nearest park,
我們騎車去最近的公園
Sat under the swings, we kissed in the dark,
坐在鞦韆下,在黑暗中相吻
We shield our eyes from the police lights,
我們擋住眼睛不看警車的燈光
We run away, but we don't know why,
我們奔跑著離開,可是我們不知道為何要這樣做
And like a mirror these city lights shine,
這城市的燈火閃耀著像一面鏡子
They're screaming at us, 'we don't need your kind.'
我們好像在向我們尖聲吼叫,“我們不需要你們這樣的人。 ”
Sometimes I wonder if the world's so small,
有時我想著“這世界就真的這麼小嗎?
That we can never get away from the sprawl,
小到我們就逃不出這個城市的擴展

Sometimes I wonder if the world's so small,
有時我想著“這世界就真的這麼小嗎?
Can we ever get away from the sprawl?
我們能逃離這城市無盡的蔓延嗎?”
