Chvrches - The Mother We Share

CHVRCHES - 我们共享的母亲

...

...

Never took your side, never crossed your name

从未站在你那边，从未提及你的名字

I keep my lips shut tight, until you go-o-oh

我紧闭双唇，直到你走哦

We're in the calmest fire, as we're ever gonna get

我们在最平静的火焰中，就像永远都不会燃尽

Until you realize, that you should go-o-oh

直到你意识到，你应该走哦

I'm in misery where you can seem as old as your omens

我身陷苦难，你可以像预兆一样变得古老

And the mother we share will never keep your proud head from falling

我们共享的母亲，永远不会让你那骄傲的头垂落

The way is long but you can make it easy on me

路很长，但你可以让我变得轻松

And the mother we share will never keep our cold hearts from calling

我们共享的母亲，永远不会让我们冰冷的心呼唤

In the dead of night, I'm the only one here

在深夜，我是唯一在这里的人

And I will cover you, until you go-o-oh

我会罩着你，直到你走哦

Cause if I told the truth, I will always be free

因为如果我说出真相，我就会永远自由

And keep a prize with me, until you go-o-oh

带着奖赏陪着我，直到你走哦

I'm in misery where you can seem as old as your omens

我身陷苦难，你可以像预兆一样变得古老

And the mother we share will never keep your proud head from falling

我们共享的母亲，永远不会让你那骄傲的头垂落

The way is long but you can make it easy on me

路很长，但你可以让我变得轻松

And the mother we share will never keep our cold hearts from calling

我们共享的母亲，永远不会让我们的冷心呼唤

Into the night for us, we're the only ones left

夜深人静，我们是唯一剩下的人

...

...

I bet you even know, where we could go-o-oh

我赌你甚至知道，我们可以去哦

And when it all fucks up, you put your head in my hands

当一切都乱了，你把头放在我手中

It's a souvenir for when you go-o-oh

这是你离开时的纪念品

I'm in misery where you can seem as old as your omens

我身陷苦难，你可以像预兆一样变得古老

And the mother we share will never keep your proud head from falling

我们共享的母亲，永远不会让你那骄傲的头垂落

The way is long but you can make it easy on me

路很长，但你可以让我变得轻松

And the mother we share will never keep our cold hearts from calling

我们共享的母亲，永远不会让我们的冷心呼唤
