Lyrics:

[English]

[中文]

As that reflective surface, in the end, turns towards you

正如那反射的表面，最终转向你

What will you behold upon it's glass and silver skin?

你将在其玻璃和银色的皮肤上看到什么？

Five of Swords

五之剑

Choose your battles wisely

明智地选择你的战斗

Five of Swords

五之剑

As the card reversed, it became your demise

当牌面逆转时，这就是你的灭亡

The self-imposed dealer of blame

自我加诸的归咎者

The unaare procreator of shame

无知的羞耻制造者

Paint your colors upon me

在我身上描绘你的色彩

They will stay like the water

它们会像水一样停留

That already seeped through my fingers

已经从我指缝中渗透

Like water between already worn-down rocks

就像水在已磨平的岩石间流淌

Oil on water, oil on water

油在水上，油在水上

Five of Swords

五之剑

Choose your battles wisely

明智地选择你的战斗

Five of Swords

五之剑

As the card reversed, it became your demise

当牌面逆转时，这就是你的灭亡

...

...

Self-made judge and juror

自制的法官和陪审员

Master of conflict and executioner

冲突的主人和刽子手

Self-turned fool and jester

自封的愚者和小丑

By your benighted sense of the I

凭你那暗淡的自我意识

Paint your colors upon me

在我身上描绘你的色彩

They will stay like the water

它们会像水一样停留

That already seeped through my fingers

已经从我指缝中渗透

Like water between already worn-down rocks

就像水在已磨平的岩石间流淌

Oil on water, oil on water

油在水上，油在水上

...
