Where the Circle Ends - Thursday

Where the Circle Ends - Thursday
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Mountain ranges
连绵山峦
Morning red bathed ridges
晨光浸染峰脊
Stab up at the trembling blue horizon
刺向颤动的蓝色天际线
Grey slides lazily off rooftops
灰色慵懒地从屋顶滑落
Lands on the incandescent ground and dies
坠入炽热大地后消逝
A flock of little men touch down on the thin surface of porchlight
一群微小人影停驻在门廊灯光的薄幕上
Dawn's footsoldiers return to march the twilight across our faces
黎明的先遣兵归来 将暮色行军过我们脸庞
Skylights ignite and explode
天光迸裂 璀璨绽放
Scattering shards of April around the room
四月的碎片洒落满室流光
No one even lives here
此处本无人烟
We're too busy crashing our cars every morning in the same house
我们只顾每日在相同屋檐下将车撞毁
Paving the same roads
铺设相同的路
Unwilling to walk them
却不愿迈步行走
And even when we extend ourselves it's only to be included
即便偶尔伸出援手
In a moment that stands still
也只为定格在某个凝固的瞬间
So often we don't struggle to improve conditions
我们常常并非真正努力改善现状
We struggle for the right to say we improved conditions
而是争夺标榜改善的虚名
And so often we form communities
我们频繁组建社群
Only to use them as exclusionary devices
却将其异化为排外工具
We forget that somewhere man is beside himself with grief
忘了某处有人正悲痛欲绝
And somewhere people are calling for teachers
某处民众呼唤着导师
And no one's answering
却无人回应
Somewhere a man stands walks across the room and breaks his nose against the door
某处有人起身穿过房间 将鼻梁撞向门框
And somewhere these people are keeping records
某处的人们正记录着这一切
Writing a book
撰写着一本书
For now we can call it the book about the basic flaw
暂且称之为《根本缺陷之书》
Or the book about the letter a
或《字母A之书》
Or any title that a book about a man
又或是任何关于一个
That no one cares about might have
无人问津之人的书名
And as we turn the pages we call out the sounds of nothing
当我们翻动书页 只唤出虚无的回响
The sounds of a vanishing alphabet
消逝的文字在风中低语
Standing here waiting
我伫立原地 静静等待
