The Greateat--Cat Power

Once I wanted to be the greatest
曾经 我是那样渴望地做到最好
No wind or waterfall could stop me
不曾有罡风与激瀑使我停下脚步
And then came the rush of the flood
然而洪流而下 将我卷陷其中
The stars at night turned you to dust
星夜晦敏 早已将我心中的你 托为尘埃灰烬

Melt me down
将我熔融而去
To big black armour
熔铸为金黑之盔
Leave no trace
Of grace
Just in your honor
仅仅在你的荣光里不留痕迹地流逝而亡

Lower me down
让我慢慢沉淀


That corporate slob
镇角的那个懒汉
Make a watch
却开始做起了守夜人
For a space in town
只为在镇上一席之地
For the lack of the drugs
只为那袋中已尽的鸦片

My faith had been sleeping
我的信仰早已沉睡多年
Lower me down
历史尘沙慢慢将我掩埋沉淀
In the end
最后
Secure the grounds
飘落于地
For the later parade
只为了最后的荣耀

Once I wanted to be the greatest
然而曾经 我是那样渴望地做到最好
Two faced, sad little rock
而内心却隐藏着另一模样 那样地忧伤哀恸颤动
When things I couldn't explain
Any feelings
难以诠释那些莫名的人事感伤


Lower me down
让我慢慢沉淀
In the end
Secure the grounds
最终轻落于地
My faith had been sleeping
而我的信仰早已沉睡腐朽
For the later parade
只为了最后的荣光
