I threw a rose to the matador

Not sure who I was cheering for
不知道我在为谁欢呼
My aim was true my heart was full

I loved the fighter and the bull
我喜欢斗士和公牛
I loved like only a woman can
我的爱只有女人能做到
A very complicated man
一个心思复杂的男人
I bound his wounds I heard his cries
我治愈他的伤口我听到他的呼喊
I gave him truth I told him lies
我告诉他真相我对他说谎


His rage is made of many things
他愤怒的原因有很多
Faithless women wedding rings
不忠诚的女人结婚戒指
Snakes and snails and alcohol
蛇、蜗牛和酒精
His daddy's fist thrown through the wall
他爸爸的拳头砸穿了墙壁
Ah but he's beautiful when he's in the ring

The devil howls the angels sing
恶魔怒吼天使歌唱
Sparks fly from his fingertips
火花从他的指尖飞舞
And words like birds fly from his lips
像鸟儿一样的话语从他口中飞出


Some man is lyin' in the dirt
有人躺在土里
Some woman's crying that he's hurt

But he's not alive without the thrill

Without the dance without the kill

The lights go down the people roar
灯光熄灭人们欢呼雀跃
They're cheering on the matador
他们在为斗牛士欢呼
And this is how the story goes

I knew it when I threw the rose
当我把玫瑰扔出去时我就知道


I come to each and every show;
每一场演出我都来；
The woman in the second row

I watch them in their ancient dance
我看着他们跳着古老的舞蹈
And I know I never stood a chance
我知道我根本没有机会
'Cause while other demons prance and clown

It's vanity that takes you down
虚荣心让你一蹶不振
I thought that I could be the one

But I'm just another hanger-on

Some man is bleedin' in the dirt

Some woman's crying that she's hurt

But who are we without the thrill
但如果没有刺激我们算什么
Without the dance without the kill
没有舞蹈没有杀戮
And he is bull and matador

And I'm the mother and the whore

And this is how the story goes
故事就是这样发展的
I knew it when I threw the rose

I threw a rose to the matador

Not sure who I was cheering for
