Becoming - Christine Dente

Becoming

These are my sidewalks
那些都是我的人行道
They wounds around the neighborhood
它们遍布在街坊周围
Always led me straight and safely home
指引我安全到家
But now they're uneven
但现在，它们都不再平坦
Cause roots move beneath them
因为它们下面的树根在慢慢生长
And time won't leave well enough alone
仿佛时间不会让一切知足
And I had been trying to smooth these stones
我一直都在努力整平那些石头
Thought I could make my way alone
我原本以为我能够独自搞定
I tried the whimsical
我试穿着各种古怪的
Gauzy pink dresses
薄的粉红色裙子
That spin in the wind when you twirl
当你旋转的时候，裙子随着风儿转动
But somehow the princess gown
但不知怎么地，这套公主的礼服
Never did fit this girl
从来都不适合这个姑娘
So I fled the garden for the tower
于是我逃出花园，跑向高塔
And I had been hiding behind these stones
我一直躲在那些石头后面
Thought I'd be well enough alone
我原本以为，我独身一人挺好
Then you came nearer
接着你就出现了
You held the mirror
你拿着镜子
I saw myself there in your eyes
我在你的眼睛里看到了我自己
And I had been running
我一直在跑
Still you pursued
你依旧在追
I watched you move each heavy stone
我看着你移动着这一块块沉重的石头
The thorns around me torn our skin
我周围的刺，刺破了我们的皮肤
But you kept coming through
但你还是度过那些艰险
Cause you won't leave well enough alone
因为你不会满足
I am becoming what I once was
我变成了曾经的模样
The girl in the mirror of your love
我变成了镜子里那个
I am becoming your love becomes me
你喜欢的女孩儿，你爱上了我
