The Truth - Steve Earle (史蒂夫-厄尔)
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
In the blue of the evenin' when the sun is low
暮色渐沉 夕阳低垂
There's a shadow that creeps across my cell block floor
阴影悄然爬过牢房的地面
And it comes to remind me what I'm in here for
它时刻提醒着我身陷囹圄的缘由
No I'm not admittin' that I done the crime
我绝不承认犯下那些罪行
I'm only gettin' down to doin' time
只是被迫在此消磨光阴
And the passin' of days is no concern of mine
时光流逝与我无关
There's a guard on the second shift comes on at three
三点钟准时换班的狱警
And he's always about a half inch off me
总与我保持半寸之距
Like he needs to keep remindin' me that I'm not free
他总在提醒我 我并非自由身
God forgive him 'cause he doesn't see
愿主宽恕他 因他视而不见
He's no less a prisoner 'cause he holds a key
手持钥匙的他 又何尝不是囚徒
And God forbid he turn his back on me
但愿他别转身弃我而去
For every wall you build around your fear
每道筑于恐惧的高墙背后
A thousand darker things are born in here
都滋生出万千更黑暗的事物
And they're fed on contempt for all that you hold dear
它们以你珍视的一切为食
The truth is it doesn't matter what you do
真相是 你做什么都无济于事
'Til you gaze in the mirror with an eye that's true
直到你以真实的目光凝视镜中
And admit that what scares you is the me in you
才肯承认 令你恐惧的正是你心中的我
