Written by：Melissa Etheridge

Why did you steal the matches
为何你要偷走火柴
From the one room motel
从那简陋的汽车旅馆
Once they gave you answers
他们曾给过你答案
Now they give you hell
如今却让你备受煎熬
They will never understand
他们永远不会明白
They wonder where did they go wrong
困惑着自己错在何处
How could you be so selfish
怎能如此自私冷漠
Why can't you get along
为何不能和睦相处
And as you pray
当你祈祷时
In your darkness
身处黑暗之中
For wings to set you free
渴望羽翼带你挣脱枷锁
You are bound
你却始终被
To your silent
那无声的
Legacy
宿命所束缚
You've seen it in the movies
这一切你已在银幕上目睹
And you've heard it on the street
街头巷尾的流言蜚语
Craving the affection
渴望着被理解
Your blood is full of heat
热血在体内沸腾
They don't listen to your reasons
无人倾听你的心声
As original as sin
如同原罪般纯粹
Deny all that you feel
否定你所有感受
And they will bring you home again
终将把你带回牢笼
And as you pray
当你祈祷时
In your darkness
身处黑暗之中
For wings to set you free
渴望羽翼带你挣脱枷锁
You are bound
你却始终被
To your silent
那无声的
Legacy
宿命所束缚
Your body is alive
身躯仍在呼吸
But no one told you what you'd feel
却无人告诉你何为痛楚
The empty aching hours
唯有空洞的煎熬长夜
Trying to conceal
试图隐藏
The natural progression
这自然的成长轨迹
Is the coming of your age
本该是你成熟的印记
But they cover it with shame
却被他们蒙上羞耻的阴影
And turn it into rage
化作满腔愤懑
And as you pray
当你祈祷时
In your darkness
身处黑暗之中
For wings to set you free
渴望羽翼带你挣脱枷锁
You are bound
你却始终被
To your silent
那无声的
Legacy
宿命所束缚
You are digging for the answers
你拼命寻找答案
Until your fingers bleed
直到指尖渗血
To satisfy the hunger
只为填饱
To satiate the need
内心的渴望
They feed you on the guilt
他们用愧疚喂养你
To keep you humble keep you low
只为让你卑微 让你低头
Some man and myth they made up
那些虚构的传说与人设
A thousand years ago
千年前就已编织
And as you pray
当你祈祷时
In your darkness
身处黑暗之中
For wings to set you free
渴望羽翼带你挣脱枷锁
You are bound
你却始终被
To your silent
那无声的
Legacy
宿命所束缚
Mothers tell your children
母亲们告诫孩子
Be quick you must be strong
要机敏 必须坚强
Life is full of wonder
人生充满奇迹
Love is never wrong
爱从不会错
Remember how they taught you
记住他们的教诲
How much of it was fear
有多少只是恐惧
Refuse to hand it down
拒绝传承
The legacy
这份枷锁
Stops here
到此为止
Oh my child
我的孩子啊
Oh my child
我的孩子啊
Oh my child
我的孩子啊
