let me tell you a story to chill the bones
让我给你们讲一段令人胆战心惊的故事吧
'bout a thing that i saw
那是我亲眼所见的
one night wandering in the everglades
在某个夜晚我徘徊在沼泽地中
i'd one drink but no more
我是喝了些酒，但是并不多
i was rambling, enjoying the bright moonlight
当时我正在闲逛，享受着皎洁的月光
gazing up at the stars
抬头凝望着繁星
not aware of a presence so near to me
（然而）并没有注意到有东西离我如此之近
watching my every move
并且注意着我的一举一动
feeling scared and i fell to my knees
当它从树林中向我奔来时，我害怕地跪在了地上
as something rushed me from the trees
took me to an unholy place
然后把我带到了一个邪恶之地
and that is where i fell from grace
那地方就是我堕落的开始
then they summoned me over to join in with them
接着它们召唤我加入它们
to the dance of the dead
和这些死人共舞
in to the circle of fire i followed them
就在这个篝火的圈中，我跟随着它们
in to the middle i was led
然后我被指引到了中央的地方
as if time had stopped still i was numb with fear
就好像时间已经停止一样，但是我是仍然害怕地发麻
but still i wanted to go
但是我却仍然想继续向前
and the blaze of the fire did no hurt upon me
当我行走在这些烧红的煤炭之上时，那些火焰并有没有烫伤我
as i walked onto the coals
and i felt i was in a trance
我感觉我像是在游离的状态
and my spirit was lifted from me
我的灵魂像是脱离了我
and if only someone had the chance
如果有人有机会
to witness what happened to me
目睹发生在我身上的一切
and i danced and i pranced and i sang with them
我手舞足蹈和它们一同欢唱
all had death in their eyes
它们的眼里只有死亡之意
lifeless figures they were undead all of them
这些毫无生机的怪物，它们都是一群亡灵
they had ascended from hell
都是从地狱爬上来的
as i danced with the dead
正当我与这些死灵共舞时
my free spirit was laughing and howling down at me
我那释放的灵魂在一旁嘲笑着我，并朝我嚎叫
below my undead body just danced the circle of dead
而我那不死的身躯却还在跳着死亡之圈
until the time came to reunite us both
直到我和灵魂重合之时
my spirit came back down to me
我的灵魂才回到我身上
i didn't know if i was alive or dead
我不知道我还是死是活
as the others, all joined in with me
因为那些东西都还在跟着我一同舞蹈
by luck then a skirmish started
幸运的是，突然发生了一个小摩擦
and took the attention away from me
将它们的注意力从我身上转移了
when they took their gaze from me
当它们的目光从我身上移走时
was the moment that i fled
那就是我逃走的时候了
i ran like hell faster than the wind
我跑得比一阵风还快
but behind i did not glance
但是并没有向后看一眼
one thing that i did not dare
那是我唯一不敢做的事情
was to look just straight ahead
只是死死地盯着前面
when you know that your time has come around
当你知道你的时间所剩无几时
you know you'll be prepared for it
你就晓得你得该做准备了
say your last goodbyes to everyone
对别人道个别
drink and say a prayer for it
喝一口酒，再说点儿祈祷吧
when you're lying in your sleep, when you're lying in your bed
当你躺在床上，当你还在睡梦之中
and you wake from your dreams to go dancing with the dead
然后从睡梦中醒来和那些亡灵共舞
when you're lying in your sleep, when you're lying in your bed
当你躺在床上，当你还在睡梦之中
and you wake from your dreams to go dancing with the dead
然后从睡梦中醒来和那些亡灵共舞
to this day i guess i'll never know
直到这一天我猜我永远也不会知道
just why they let me go
为什么它们会让我走
but i'll never go dancing no more
但是我再也不会跳舞了
'til i dance with the dead
直到我和死亡共舞
