歌词（节选）欣赏：

 

Combat, I'm ready for combat

搏斗我已经为殊死搏斗做好准备

I say I don't want that, but what if I do?

我说过不想争斗但若我真的想要又该如何

'Cause cruelty wins in the movies

因为电影里往往是暴虐赢得一切

I've got a hundred thrown-out speeches I almost said to you

脱口而出的话我差一点就要和你一吐为快

Easy they come, easy they go

他们来得容易去得也快

I jump from the train, I ride off alone

从火车上纵身一跃孤身脱离了轨道

I never grew up, it's getting so old

我从未从稚嫩蜕变这早已老生常谈

Help me hold on to you

帮帮我让我能将你依靠

I've been the archer, I've been the prey

我是爱的弓箭手也是爱的猎物

Who could ever leave me, darling

是谁能够舍身将我离去亲爱的

But who could stay?

又是谁始终留伴身边

Dark side, I search for your dark side

黑暗面我寻找着你人性黑暗的一面

But what if I'm alright, right, right, right here?

但假如我已经置身于你的黑暗之中又该如何

And I cut off my nose just to spite my face

搬起石头来砸自己的脚

Then I hate my reflection for years and years

我痛恨着过去我一举一动的倒影年复一年

I wake in the night, I pace like a ghost

在黑夜里醒来我脚步如鬼魂虚无

The room is on fire, invisible smoke

房间好似着火充斥着无形的硝烟

And all of my heroes die all alone

我的英雄时代已经悄然离我远去

Help me hold on to you

请帮帮我让我还能够将你依靠

I've been the archer, I've been the prey

我是爱的弓箭手也是爱的猎物

Screaming, who could ever leave me, darling

是谁能够舍身将我离去亲爱的

But who could stay?

又是谁始终留伴身边
