[English]

[中文]

You leapt from crumbling bridges

你从崩塌的桥上跳下

Watching cityscapes turn to dust

看着城市的景观化为尘埃

...

...

Filming helicopters crashing

拍摄直升机坠毁

In the ocean from way above

在高空中的海洋里

...

...

Got the music in you, baby

你体内有音乐，宝贝

Tell me why

告诉我为什么

Got the music in you, baby

你体内有音乐，宝贝

Tell me why

告诉我为什么

You've been locked in here forever

你在这里被锁住了永远

And you just can't say goodbye

而你就是无法说再见

...

...

Kisses on the foreheads of the lovers

爱人额头上的吻

Wrapped in your arms

被你拥抱在怀中

You've been hiding them in hollowed out pianos

你把它们藏在空心的钢琴里

Left in the dark

留在黑暗中

...

...

Got the music in you, baby

你体内有音乐，宝贝

Tell me why

告诉我为什么

Got the music in you, baby

你体内有音乐，宝贝

Tell me why

告诉我为什么

You've been locked in here forever

你在这里被锁住了永远

And you just can't say goodbye

而你就是无法说再见

...

Your lips, my lips

你的嘴唇，我的嘴唇

Apocalypse

末日

Your lips, my lips

你的嘴唇，我的嘴唇

Go and sneak us through the rivers

Flood is rising up on your knees

洪水在你膝盖上升起

Oh, please

Come out and haunt me

I know you want me

Sharing all your secrets with each other

Since you were kids

Sleeping soundly with the locket that she gave you

紧握着她给你的锁骨

Clutched in your fist

握在你的拳头里

Got the music in you, baby

你体内有音乐，宝贝

Tell me why

And you just can't say goodbye

When you're all alone
