Promised Land - Queensrÿche

Watching the sand fall listening for the knock
盯着沙漏 听着响起
Upon my door
敲门声
And waiting for Promised Land
等待着 快乐的地方
Standing neck deep in life
站在没颈的人生中
My ring of brass lay rusting on the floor
铜戒指躺在地板上生着锈
Is this all
这就是全部
Because it's not what I expected
这不是我希望的
Somewhere along the way
在路上某个地方
Friends I once held close fled in the fast lane
曾经握紧的朋友逃向繁忙的生活
I didn't notice I just had to make it
我没察觉 只能随它吧
Head down nose to the grindstone;
低着头 埋身磨刀石上
The kiss of life placed on my brow
岁月之吻落在我的额头
Kept slidin' to the ground
然后划向地面
And now it's buried six feet under
现在已经把我埋了六尺深
Preaching from the floor again
地板上再次传来念经一样
The same old sad song
那首悲伤的老歌
"Bartender bring another drink for their favorite son "
卖酒的 再给我这他们最爱的孩子来一杯
Where did it all go wrong
这一切是哪里出了错
What's the use in even holding on
撑下去又有什么用
Here's to love hate and promises and lies
在这个世界上 去爱 去恨 去承诺 然后撒谎
Almost called it today
这不叫今天
Turned to face "The Void"
面朝着虚空
Numb with the suffering
麻木于痛
And the question
问题是
"Why am I "
为什么我
So many times I've tried and failed to
我已经努力过太多太多次
Gather my courage reach again for that nail
却一再失去勇气 因为一次又一次碰在钉子上
Life's been like
人生就像
Dragging feet through sand
拖着腿穿过沙漠
And never finding Promised Land
永远也找不到 欢乐的地方
Preaching from the floor again
地板上再次传来念经一样
The same old sad song
那首悲伤的老歌
"Bartender bring another drink for their favorite song "
卖酒的 再给我这他们最爱的孩子来一杯
Where did it all go wrong
这一切是哪里出了错
I feel like I'm dying
我觉得我正在死去
Here's to love to hate
在这个世界上 去爱 去恨
To promises and Promised Land lies
去欢乐的地方 但快乐的地方对我撒了谎
