Dance Of Death
死亡之舞
Edited By AF
Let me tell you a story to chill the bones
让我来讲个令你毛骨悚然的故事
'bout a thing that I saw
那是我亲眼所见
One night wandering in the everglades
在我困在沼泽的那天夜里
I'd one drink but no more
我只喝了一杯小酒再没多饮
I was rambling, enjoying the bright moonlight
我信步游荡,享受明亮的月光
Gazing up at the stars
凝望着星斗
Not aware of a presence so near to me
没有察觉鬼魅在我近旁
Watching my every move
注视我的每一举动
Feeling scared and I fell to my knees
我的双膝随着恐惧跪在地上
As something rushed me from the trees
树丛中又有什么推了我一下
Took me to an unholy place
带我到一个邪恶的地方
And that is where I fell from grace
一个让我堕落的地方
Then they summoned me over to join in with them
随即他们召唤我去加入
To the dance of the dead
加入这死亡之舞
In to the circle of fire I followed them
跟随他们进入火的光环
In to the middle I was led
我被引领到火的中央
As if time had stopped still I was numb with fear
恐惧令我僵硬麻木,仿佛时间已经凝固
But still I wanted to go
我却仍有意识支配
And the blaze of the fire did no hurt upon me
熊熊烈焰不能伤我
As I walked onto the coals
当我在火炭上走过
And I felt I was in a trance
我感到神情恍惚
And my spirit was lifted from me
我的灵魂离我远去
And if only someone had the chance
哪怕只有一人有机会
To witness what happened to me
来证明我的遭遇
And I danced and I pranced and I sang with them
我欢腾跳跃并与他们欢唱
All had death in their eyes
他们的眼里只有死亡
Lifeless figures they were undead all of them
都是没有生命空躯壳的行尸走肉
They had ascended from hell
他们从地狱升起
As I danced with the dead
正当我跟死人跳着舞蹈
my free spirit was laughing and howling down at me
我自由的灵魂把我嘲笑对我咆哮
Below my undead body just danced the circle of dead
我不死的躯壳下面,死者跳舞围成圆圈
Until the time came to reunite us both
直到时间把我们重新合并
My spirit came back down to me
我的灵魂回到肉体
I didn't know if I was alive or dead
我不知自己是生是死
As the others, all joined in with me
因为还有其他人一起
And took the attention away from me
一场冲突被侥幸的挑起
By luck then a skirmish started
进而带走我的注意力
When they took their gaze from me
当他们把目光从我这里转移
Was the moment that I fled
我就在那一时刻逃离
I ran like hell faster than the wind
我像风一样拼命奔跑
But behind I did not glance
但没有回头瞥上一眼
One thing that I did not dare
有一件我不敢做的事
Was to look just straight ahead
就是直直盯着正前面
When you know that your time has come around
当你知道已经在劫难逃
You know you'll be prepared for it
你知道你将做好准备
Say your last goodbyes to everyone
对所有人说最后一声再见
Drink and say a prayer for it
喝下最后一口酒念完最后的祷告
When you're lying in your sleep, when you're lying in your bed
当你躺在床上,当你在睡梦中说谎
And you wake from your dreams to go dancing with the dead
你从梦中醒来与死者共舞
When you're lying in your sleep, when you're lying in your bed
当你躺在床上,当你在睡梦中说谎
And you wake from your dreams to go dancing with the dead
你从梦中醒来与死者共舞
To this day I guess I'll never know
至今我都无法明白
Just why they let me go
他们为什么只放我离开
But I'll never go dancing no more
但我从此不再跳舞
'Til I dance with the dead
直到与死者共舞
