Jekyll & Hyde

By Bob Hartman

我有一个秘密，没人能看到

Based on Rom. 7: 15

根据罗马书7:15

...

...

I have a secret that I let nobody see

一个邪恶的影子一直悬在我头上

An evil shadow that's been hanging over me

我的另一个自我，我试图抗拒

My alter ego that I try to hold at bay

但尽管我善意满满，他总能溜走

But despite my good intentions he can always get away

他做我不愿做的事

He does the things that I don't want to do

有时我觉得我是杰克尔与海德

Sometimes I feel like Jekyll and Hyde

Sometimes I feel like Jekyll and Hyde

...

两个男人在我心中交战

Two men are fighting a war inside

Two men are fighting a war inside

...

我有这个秘密，没人能看到

I have this secret that I let nobody see

就像双重人格

It's like a split personality

我喂养的那一面活着

And the one I feed is the one who lives

我让它饿着的那一面就会倒下

The one I starve will be the one who gives

他不会做我知道应该做的事

He won't do things that I know I should do

有时我觉得我是杰克尔与海德

Sometimes I feel like Jekyll and Hyde

Sometimes I feel like Jekyll and Hyde

...

两个男人在我心中激战

Two men are fighting a war inside

Two men are fighting a war inside

...

一方给予，一方夺取，我必须抉择

One gives, one takes, I have to decide

有时我觉得我是杰克尔与海德

Sometimes I feel like Jekyll and Hyde

我需要有人来拯救我

I need somebody to rescue me

当个性碰撞时

When personalities clash

我知道我想成为什么样的人

I know which person I want to be

没有反抗

With no defiance

只有对上帝的信赖

Just God-reliance

只靠神的引导

...
