[English]

[中文]

The cycle repeated

循环重复再现

As explosions broke in the sky

当爆炸在天际炸裂

All that I needed

我所需要的全部

Was the one thing I couldn't find

是那我找不到的一样

And you were there at the turn

而你就在转角处

Waiting to let me know

等着告诉我

We're building it up to break it back down

我们在建起又拆掉

We're building it up to burn it down

我们在堆积再焚毁

We can't wait to burn it to the ground

我们迫不及待要焚毁一切

...

...

The colors conflicted

色彩冲突交错

As the flames climbed into the clouds

火焰升入云霄

I wanted to fix this

我想要修复这一切

But couldn't stop from tearing it down

但无法阻止把它拆除

And you were there at the turn

而你就在转角处

Caught in the burning glow

陷入燃烧的光辉中

And I was there at the turn

而我也在转角

Waiting to let you know

等待告诉你

We're building it up to break it back down

我们在堆积再焚毁

We're building it up to burn it down

我们在建起又拆掉

We can't wait to burn it to the ground

You told me yes, you held me high

你告诉我YES，你高高举起我

And I believed when you told that lie

我相信你说的那个谎言

I played soldier, you played king

我扮演士兵，你扮演王

And struck me down when I kissed that ring

当我吻那戒指时你击倒我

You lost that right to hold that crown

你失去了那掌控皇冠的权利

I built you up but you let me down

我曾帮你建立一切，但你让我失望

So when you fall, I'll take my turn

所以当你倒下时，我会轮到我

And fan the flames as your blazes burn

添火把火焰燃烧得更旺

And you were there, at the turn

而你就在转角

Waiting to let me know

等待告诉我

We're building it up to break it back down

When you fall, I'll take my turn

We can't wait to burn it to the ground

When you fall, I'll take my turn

Gramática:

• All that I needed / Was the one thing I couldn't find

  ➔ 带有 "all" 的分裂句

  ➔ 这个句子结构强调了 "the one thing I couldn't find" (我找不到的东西)。它将句子分成两部分: "All that I needed" (我需要的一切) 和 "Was the one thing I couldn't find" (是我找不到的东西)。使用 "all" 作为主语突出了这个特定缺失元素的重要性。

• We're building it up to break it back down

  ➔ 短语动词 "build up" 和 "break down"，带对象插入

  ➔ "Build up" 意味着积累或构建，而 "break down" 意味着拆卸或破坏。 对象 "it" 插入在动词和助词之间，因为它是一个代词。 正确的用法是 "build it up" 而不是 "build up it"。

• You told me yes, you held me high / And I believed when you told that lie

  ➔ 一般过去时和带 "when" 的从句

  ➔ 一般过去时描述了过去完成的动作。 "when" 从句显示了相信的时间，表明说话者在谎言说出口 *时* 相信了。

• I played soldier, you played king / And struck me down when I kissed that ring

  ➔ 一般过去时，隐喻语言，"when" 从句

  ➔ 这里使用了简单过去时。 "Played soldier" (扮演士兵) 和 "Played king" (扮演国王) 是关系中角色的隐喻。 "when" 从句表明亲吻戒指的行为紧随其后的是被击倒的行为。

• You lost that right to hold that crown

  ➔ 带有情态动词 "to" 的一般过去时

  ➔ Lost 是一般过去时。 "to hold that crown" 是目的不定式，表达了失去的目的。

• I built you up but you let me down

  ➔ 一般过去时，对比连词 "but"，短语动词 "let down"

  ➔ "Built" 和 "let" 是过去式。 "But" 连接了两个对比鲜明的想法：说话者支持了另一个人，但另一个人却让说话者失望了。 "Let down" 是一个短语动词，意思是让人失望或不支持。

• So when you fall, I'll take my turn / And fan the flames as your blazes burn

  ➔ 一般将来时 (I'll = I will)，时间状语从句 (when)，方式状语从句 (as)

  ➔ "I'll take" 是一般将来时，表示未来的动作。 "when" 从句为该动作设置了条件。 "as" 从句描述了说话者将 *如何* 煽动火焰 - 在火焰燃烧时。
