歌词(节选)欣赏
Well, you almost had me fooled
我必须承认你的诡计几乎让我自堕志气
Told me that I was nothing without you
你说我若无你相助将一无是处
Oh, but after everything you've done
可当你耍尽一切心机手段
I can thank you for how strong I have become
我终究炼成铜筋铁骨坚不可摧
'Cause you brought the flames and you put me through hell
你投我入地狱在焚身烈焰中痛不欲生
I had to learn how to fight for myself
我却誓死抗争在山穷水尽处凤凰涅槃
And we both know all the truth I could tell
我所说的真相你我心知肚明
I'll just say this is I wish you farewell
时过境迁只余下一句愿你一路平安
I hope you're somewhere praying, praying
我期望你正在你的旅途上尽心祈祷
I hope your soul is changing, changing
我愿你被恶魔攫取的灵魂得以解脱
I hope you find your peace
我愿你获得平静
Falling on your knees, praying
屈膝谢过虔诚祈祷
