以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
[Instrumental]

Consider this question
请思考这个问题
Look deep inside
深入内心探寻
Deliver a true confession
袒露真实的告白
What are you willing to live for
你为何而活
Consider this question
请思考这个问题
Open your eyes
睁开双眼
Examine your own reflection
审视自己的倒影
What are you willing to die for
你为何而死
When your back's against the wall
当你退无可退
And your time's uncertain
当生命危在旦夕
Consider this question
请思考这个问题
No standing by
绝不能袖手旁观
When flesh and blood are threatened
当至亲至爱受到威胁
What are you willing to kill for
你愿意为何而战
We seek
我们追寻
To understand
生命真谛
We cry
我们哭泣
With head in hand
双手抱头
The bridges we build to connect
搭建桥梁只为相连
The distance that makes us forget
距离却让我们遗忘
Hate dividing us
仇恨将我们分离
Love reminding us of our shared humanity
爱让我们记起共同的人性
Hope can be a shadow fleeting
希望如转瞬即逝的幻影
I would rather die believing
我宁愿为信仰而死
Chancing it all in a final act of faith
以最后信念孤注一掷
We seek
我们追寻
To understand
生命真谛
We cry
我们哭泣
With head in hand
双手抱头
A story that needs to be told
这是个必须讲述的故事
An answer that begs to found
这是个亟待揭晓的答案
The beauty we wish to behold
我们渴望见证的美好
Is never too far away
其实从未遥不可及

[Instrumental]

[IV The Pursuit of Truth]

Mothers for their children
Husbands for their wives
Martyrs for the kingdom
Fighting for your life
A soldier for his country
A junkie for the high
Teachers for their students
Vengeance for a crime
Rebels for their freedom
A tyrant for the praise
Cowards for salvation
Money love and fame
Noble and brave
Lay down our lives for the cause
Death over shame
Grace before glory
[V Surrender Trust
