This Old Dark Machine

Spring it came upon us,
我们邂逅春天
Every insect filled the air
小虫多如繁星
Dropped their wings upon my brother,
朝我兄弟丢落翅膀
Cast their shadows on his hair
给他头发涂抹阴影
If we follow where they're leading,
如果跟随它们的指引
We will surely come before
我们定能先一步前往
Some unseen and wondrous magic
不为人知的奇妙魔法
Made of visions to explore
成型于探索的幻象
Near the town where we were living
我们曾居住的小镇近旁
Lay an old abandoned farm
有个废弃的旧农场
Every year we'd plant an orchid
每年我们会种株兰花
In the shelter of its arm
栽在屋檐荫庇下方
To protect us from the madness
保护我们免遭
Of the future still to come
即将到来的疯狂
It will be like this forever
我们将永远如此
It will keep us safe from harm
我们会安然无恙
Then they caught us in the summer
他们在夏天撞见我们
Dressed in father's finest clothes
身穿父亲最好的衣裳
You the hat he wore to market
你的是他戴去集市的帽子
I the jacket filled with holes
我则是布满破洞的夹克
I've been searching all these hours
漫长时光里我苦苦求索
For a hand as pale as bone
找寻一只苍白如骨的手掌
That would keep the strongest sunlight
储存最耀眼的日光
And reflect the brightest stone
反射石头最明亮
Near the town where we were living
我们曾居住的小镇近旁
Was a warm and fragrant smell
我们栽下的兰花
Of that orchid we had planted
飘荡温暖的芳香
Now a forest tall and well
如今森林般繁茂挺拔
What a statue to our greatness
像座纪念我们伟大的雕像
What a story all will tell
这个故事人们将争相传唱
They'll remember us forever
他们会永远铭记我们
They'll remember where we fell
他们会记住我们跌倒的地方
This old dark machine, it shakes and it shudders
这古旧的机器颤抖、摇晃
Pulls to the left, then dies near the gutter
向左行驶，熄火在下水道旁
But still in the road, the traffic is silent
但仍停在路上，车流静寂
The people they stare, and then they turn violent
凝视的人变得暴力
If they should touch, the hem of your dress
如果他们触碰你的裙摆
I would rise like a lion, strike out again
我将雄狮般崛起，再次出击
The faithful they wait, the faithful they wait
虔诚的信徒，虔诚的信徒
By the sign
在迹象旁等待
Near the town where we were living
我们曾居住的小镇近旁
Came a loud and joyous sound
传来嘹亮的愉快声响
As the earth and all her beauty
大地和她美丽的一切
Picked us up from off the ground
将我们举至地面之上
Carried far across the mountain
携我们远远飞越山川
To a kingdom never bound
抵达一个国度无边无疆
We will live like this forever
我们会永远这样生活
I will love you
我会爱你
I will love you
我会爱你依旧
I will love you
我会爱你如常
