St. Peter

In the middle of hell
在地狱中间
Lies a little St. Peter
小St. Peter躺在
In a hospital bed
医院的病床上
Burning up
身体燃烧着

头上搭着湿布
With a cloth to his head
高烧纠缠着他
He is ridden by fever
我甚至无法辨别
And I can't even tell
是否恶魔获得胜利
Whether the demons have won
哥哥依偎着妈妈陪伴着他

努力向上帝祈祷让他忘记痛苦
And his mother is there with his brother tied to her back
在地狱中间
Praying as hard as she can to a god in a land that I think he forgot
遍布着蚊蝇和死亡

每天都能像往常那样吗
In the middle of hell
她说上帝会保佑我
Where death by mosquito
她说上帝会保佑我
Is as everyday as my coffee or your cigarette
我摇了摇头

因为在医院的病床上我并没有看到上帝
And she says God bless me
她说上帝会保佑我
She says God bless me
她说上帝会保佑我
And I shake my head
我转过头
Cause I can't see God in this hospital bed
但在这个地方她第一次放开了我的手
She says God bless me
我祈祷着
She says God bless me
阿门
And I look away
阿门
But as she lets go of my hand for the first time in this place
我想倾尽所有
I pray
却无法给与
Amen
我带来的小男孩
Amen
已经为时已晚

我给了他一瓶水
I got plenty to give
催促他快点离开
But there's nothing to offer
他才7岁
And the little I brought
睡在天堂门外
Comes far too late
我无法忘记他妈妈望向我的眼神

愤怒悲伤疯狂包含着对孩子深深的爱
But I urge him to leave
在地狱中间
With a bottle of water
我们坐在
He is seven years old
医院的病床上
Sleeping outside pearly gates
祈求死亡不要降临

她说上帝会保佑我
And his mother looks at me with eyes I will never let go
她说上帝会保佑我
They are angry and sad beyond measure and mad with a child-bearing love that I know
我摇了摇头

因为在医院的病床上我并没有看到上帝
In the middle of hell
她说上帝会保佑我
We just sit with each other
她说上帝会保佑我
On a hospital bed
我转过头
Begging for death to go home
但在这个地方她第一次放开了我的手

我祈祷着
And she says God bless me
阿门
She says God bless me
阿门
And I shake my head
在地狱中间
Cause I can't see God in this hospital bed
小St. Peter躺在
She says God bless me
医院的病床上
She says God bless me
备受煎熬
And I look away
But as she lets go of my hand for the first time in this place
I pray
Amen
Amen

In the middle of hell
Lies a little St. Peter
In a hospital bed
Burning up
