歌词与翻译

[中文]

任何古老的信仰在你血脉里低吟

某种动物本能再度被唤醒

我被紧紧缠住，几乎无法呼吸

你不明白我们为何渴求一种释放

厌倦了小心翼翼，厌倦了止步不前

给我点可以碾碎的东西，点可以杀死的东西

一次雷击，一棵倒下的树

我不害怕，哦，别让它找到我

可是你逃不掉自己，终会看清

我无力可施，哦，别再提醒我

这就是古老的信仰

但欲望依旧如初

摆脱肉体，摆脱疼痛

而那是你备受困扰的英雄

再度归来，迎接第六季

在最黑暗的时刻，我最喜欢那段

我被紧紧缠住，几乎无法呼吸

你不明白我们为何渴求一种释放

看我爬行在手膝之间

在天堂之门上划抓

一次雷击，一棵倒下的树

我不害怕，哦，别让它找到我

可是你逃不掉自己，终会看清

我无力可施，我明白，别再提醒我

这就是古老的信仰在你血脉里低吟

某种动物本能再度被唤醒

我被紧紧缠住，几乎无法呼吸

你不明白我们为何渴求一种释放

一次雷击，一棵倒下的树（这就是古老的信仰）

我不害怕，哦，别让它找到我

可是你逃不掉自己，终会看清（这就是古老的信仰）

我无力可施，哦，别再提醒我

...

[英语]

Any old religion humming in your veins

Some animal instinct starting up again

And I am wound so tightly, I hardly even breathe

You wonder why we're hungry for some kind of release

So tired of being careful, so tired of being still

Give me something I can crush, something I can kill

A lightning strike, a fallen tree

I'm not afraid, oh, don't let it find me

But you can't outrun yourself, you'll see

And I'm powerless, oh, don't remind me

And it's the old religion

But the urge remains the same

Freedom from the body, freedom from the pain

And it's your troubled hero

Back for season six

When it's at its darkest, it's my favourite bit

And I am wound so tightly, I hardly even breathe

You wonder why we're hungry for some kind of release

Watch me crawl on hands and knees

And scratch at the door of Heaven

A lightning strike, a fallen tree

I'm not afraid, oh, don't let it find me

But you can't outrun yourself, you'll see

And I'm powerless, I know and don't remind me

And it's the old religion humming in your veins

Some animal instinct starting up again

And I am wound so tightly, I hardly even breathe

You wonder why we're hungry for some kind of release

A lightning strike, a fallen tree (and it's the old religion)

I'm not afraid, oh, don't let it find me

But you can't outrun yourself, you'll see (and it's the old religion)

And I'm powerless, oh, don't remind me
