I Came So Far For Beauty - Stina Nordenstam

I came so far for beauty
我为我的女人付出了太多
I left so much behind
我抛弃了很多东西
My patience and my family
我的耐心 我的家庭
My masterpiece unsigned
我的无名杰作
I thought I'd be rewarded
我想我会得到回报
For such a lonely choice
因为这样一个孤独的选择
And surely she would answer
她必然会做出回应
To such a very hopeless voice
对于这个无望的声音
I practiced all my sainthood
我践行了我圣徒的职责
I gave to one and all
为每一个人奉献
But the rumours of my virtue
但是关于我美德的谣传
They moved her not at all
它们丝毫动摇不了她的心
I changed my style to silver
我改变了自己的造型 现在我光彩夺目
I changed my clothes to black
我换上了黑色的衣服
And where I would surrender
过去我屈服的地方
Now I would attack
现在我将主动出击
I stormed the old casino
我咒骂着那个旧赌场
For the money and the flesh
因为那里的金钱和那里的人们
And I myself decided
我自己会决定
What was rotten and what was fresh
什么是新鲜的 什么已经腐烂
And men to do my bidding
我会为什么人争取
And broken bones to teach
尽力教导什么人
The value of my pardon
我对众人的宽恕
The shadow of my reach
我走过的足迹
But no I could not touch her
但是 我触摸不到她
With such a heavy hand
用这种高压手段
Her star beyond my order
我仍然无法得到她
Her nakedness unmanned
无人照顾她
