My Ship Isn't Pretty 歌詞
The telegraph gave us hope
通訊給予我們希望
Before was the silence and the panic it brought
在這之前的是沉默和恐慌
The sky was the blankest sheet
天空就像是空彈片
We drew lines upon it
我們在它身上畫了線路
so our thoughts could meet
以讓我們的想法得到滿足
through cables black and cold
通過黑色的冰冷的電纜
we carry our intentions to bridge
我們將心意傳送到彼端
and bring home
再傳給自己
would it all be so clear
如果這一切全被擦盡
if the lines were erased
如果這些直線被抹去
and the silence restored?
沉寂也會重歸於心嗎
Boys of today write lines on walls
現在的夜晚的街道
in the streets at night
有男孩在牆壁上塗畫線條
in suburbans of cities with no name
在某些無名的郊區
is this destruction or just quiet protest
這被視作破壞和無聲的抗議
against loneliness
對抗的是寂寞
the car go lights in our lamps
汽車在我們的燈前亮起光
they're weight is so heavy
它們實在是顯得無比厚重
and this is all we know
而這就是我們所知的全部
our message will need a ship
我們需要一艘船
to travel across oceans
來讓信息穿越海洋
that can't otherwise be crossed
那一定能夠傳達到彼岸
it underplate on the waves
船板破開波浪
and cautions the water so we can be safe
阻隔海水來護我們周全
it underplate on the waves
船板破開波浪
then cautions the water so we can be safe
阻隔海水來護我們周全
