Written By：Elvis Coste

If dust could only talk
如果尘埃能言说
What would we hear it say
它会告诉我们什么
Before it's brushed aside
在被拂去之前
Just as it's swept away
就像被扫走一样
It's just the evidence
它只是证据
It's of no consequence
无关紧要
It's only flesh and bone
它只是血肉之躯
Why don't you leave it alone
为何你不放过它
If dust could only speak
若尘埃能言说
Caught in a falling beam
困于坠落的光束中
If dust could only cry
若尘埃能哭泣
If dust could only scream
若尘埃能尖叫
For it's the single witness that might testify
因为它是唯一可能作证的见证者
Could I spit out the truth
我能否吐露真相
Or would you rather just swallow a lie
还是你宁愿吞下谎言
But dust is always caught beneath a coat of pain
但尘埃总是被痛苦的表面所掩盖
Beneath the marble fingernails of kings and saints
在国王与圣人的大理石指甲下
And in the theatre curtain where they hang a drape
在悬挂帷幕的剧院窗帘中
Or in the ticket pocket where your hands escape
或在你的手逃离的票袋里
Before they start to wander
在它们开始游走之前
Or they start to shrink
或在它们开始退缩之前
You rub your eye a little and appear to blink
你轻轻揉了揉眼睛，似乎眨了眨眼
And then she caught you staring
然后她发现你在凝视
She knows what you're thinking
她知晓你心中所想
What got into you is not a ghost as such
潜入你心的并非幽灵
It was just dust
那只是尘埃
Here comes the juggernaut
巨兽正步步逼近
Here come The Poisoners
投毒者紧随其后
They choke the life and land
他们扼杀生命与土地
And rob the joy from us
从我们手中夺走欢乐
Why do they taste of sugar
为何他们尝起来如糖般甜美
Oh when they're made of money
当他们被金钱所铸就
Here come the Lamb of God
上帝的羔羊降临
And the butcher's boy Sonny
还有屠夫的儿子桑尼
Well I believe we just
我相信我们终究
Become a speck of dust
化作一粒尘埃
Well I believe we just
我相信我们终究
Become a speck of dust
化作一粒尘埃
Well I believe we just
我相信我们终究
Become a speck of dust
化作一粒尘埃
