该上船啦
#02] Fast Train
快车
some people will do anything to be seen
their faces turn up in all the glossy magazines
to get in to the spotlight, theyre willing to walk all over you
follow the fashions, dont care bout the cost
live for the moment, and then they are lost
tomorrow is just another day, so far away
有些人会做任何让他人在意的事
他们的脸出现在所有光鲜的杂志上
为了成为聚光灯,他们愿意绕着你们走
追随时尚,不在乎成本
活在当下,然后他们就迷失了
明天只是如此遥远的另一天
we look to the future, dont care bout the past
lives always changing, its happening fast
nothing lasts for long, we buy and we throw
no time to sit down to see where we go
我们展望未来,不关心过去
生活总是在变化,它发生得很快
没有什么东西能持续很长时间,我们买东西,然后扔东西
没时间坐下来看看我们要去哪里
now were riding the fast train
too late to get off of this fast train
no wonder the seats are taken
cause historys now in the makin
into the future we ride
现在我们坐着快车
要下这列快车太晚了
怪不得座位被占了
因为历史走向未来的过程中
我们乘快车而行
the bigger the better, houses and cars
soon well be having vacations on mars
work round the clock to get what we want, to stay in the race
fastfood and pills helps us save time
no need to go out, I meet my friends online
anything I need, is just a click away
越大越好,房子和汽车
很快我们就要去火星度假了
日以继夜地工作,以得到我们想要的,保持在竞争者中
快餐和药丸帮助我们节省时间
没必要出去,我在网上认识我的朋友
任何我需要的,只要点击一下
we look to the future, dont care bout the past
lives always changing, its happening fast
nothing lasts for long, we buy and we throw
no time to sit down to see where we go
我们展望未来,不关心过去
生活总是在变化,它发生得很快
没有什么东西能持续很长时间,我们买东西,然后扔东西
没时间坐下来看看我们要去哪里
now were riding the fast train
too late to get off of this fast train
no wonder the seats are taken
cause historys now in the makin
into the future we ride
现在我们坐着快车
要下这列快车太晚了
怪不得座位被占了
因为历史走向未来的过程中
我们乘快车而行
#03] Solitude
孤独
please Mr Sandman will you carefully
close my eyes
feel I need to sleep awhile to rest
my troubled mind
eager to find a dwelling place where I can try
can I find the hidden page and read between the lines
桑德曼先生,请你小心点好吗?
闭上我的眼睛
感觉我需要睡一会儿和片刻休息
我烦恼的心
渴望找到一个我可以尝试的住处
我能找到隐藏的页面并在字里行间阅读吗?
solitude may help my soul
to heal the open scars
the silent moments in my life
will set my feet on solid ground
孤独也许能帮助我的灵魂
治愈开放的伤疤
我生命中沉默的时刻
会把我的脚踩在坚实的地面上
in my dreams I float away to places
in my mind
scopes of holy places, revealing all mankind
I wake up and feel so numb, at the same
time born again
when I look out my window, the sight of life again feels so sane
在我的梦里,我飘向远方
在我脑海里
圣地的范围,揭示全人类
我醒来的时候感觉很麻木
同时重生
当我向窗外望去时,生命的景象又一次感觉如此清醒
solitude may help my soul
to heal the open scars
the silent moments in my life
will set my feet on solid, solid ground
孤独也许能帮助我的灵魂
治愈开放的伤疤
我生命中沉默的时刻
会把我的脚踩在坚实的地面上
坚实的地面上
#04] Empty Minds
空洞心灵
I go to work in the morning, home at night, dinner on my own
another day has passed, another monday night
the weekends just four days away
我早上去上班,晚上回家,自己吃饭
又过了一天,又一个星期一的晚上
到周末只剩四天了
my neighbours still up
I know what hes up to
drinking his loneliness away
我的邻居还没睡
我知道他想干什么
喝下他的孤独
too many empty people, too many empty minds
theres too many people, living empty lives
so many empty faces, so many lonely souls
throwing their lives all away
太多空虚的人,太多空虚的头脑
有太多的人,过着空虚的生活
那么多空虚的脸庞,那么多孤独的灵魂
把生命扔掉
I meet my friends through my computer, I see them every day
hundreds of channels to choose from on my TV
Ive also got the latest games, Ive got all I need
我通过我的电脑认识我的朋友,我每天都看到他们
我的电视上有数百个频道可供选择
我也有最新的游戏,我有我所需要的
I pay my bills
order my food
all from the comfort of my chair
我付账单
订购我的食物
都是从我的椅子上舒舒服服的完成的
too many empty people, too many empty minds
theres too many people, living empty lives
so many empty faces, so many lonely souls
throwing their lives all away
太多空虚的人,太多空虚的头脑
有太多的人,过着空虚的生活
那么多空虚的脸庞,那么多孤独的灵魂
把生命扔掉
#05] Simple Man
简单的人
hell wake up with the dawn
drink his cup of coffee, make his lunch
to him its just another day in a working mans life
some say hes a simple man, but its the life that he loves
他会随着黎明醒来
喝他的咖啡,给他自己做午餐
对他来说,这只是一个工人生活中的另一天
有人说他是个简单的人,但这是他热爱的生活
another day has passed
on the bus back home, he falls asleep and dreams
about the times he spent with family and friends
some say hes a simple man, but its the life that he loves
又过了一天
在回家的公共汽车上,他睡着了,做梦了
关于他和家人和朋友一起度过的时光
有人说他是个简单的人,但这是他热爱的生活
his life hadnt always been like this
once he had felt love
at least thats what he thought, but then one day she left
she couldnt love a simple man, or live a simple life
他的生活并不总是这样
曾经他感受到爱
至少他是这么想的,但有一天她离开了
她不能爱一个简单的男人,也不能过简单的生活
he still dreams of fortunate days
but gets caught in his old fashioned ways
he works the land as he always have done
memories of her are long since gone
他仍然梦想着幸运的日子
但却被他老套的生活方式绊住了
他像往常一样在这块土地上干活
对她的记忆早已逝去
now he tries to catch up with time
a simple man in his prime
现在他努力赶上潮流
一个素朴的人
to get beyond the times that have been
he seeks his luck through this laptop screen
cant get *** art with his new cell phone
still hes left with his dreams all alone
超越过去的时代
他通过这个笔记本电脑屏幕寻找运气
不能用他的新手机获得聪明
他仍然独自留下了他的梦想
now he tries to catch up with time
a simple man in his prime
now he tries to catch up with time
a simple man in his prime
现在他努力赶上潮流
一个素朴的人
现在他努力赶上潮流
一个素朴的人
#06] For Elise

#07] Test of Time
时间的考验
Im seeking solace in my crystal ball
dark clouds emerge to close down my call
will we manage sustaining our lives
have enough food and water, hindering strives
我在我的水晶球里寻找安慰
乌云密布,结束了我的召唤
我们能维持我们的生命吗?
有足够的食物和水,阻碍努力
we must take time
to face all our demons
in order to keep on succeeding
我们必须花点时间
面对我们所有的恶魔
为了继续成功
reading prophecies
praying for remedies
well stand the test of time
we will live to see
what weve come to be
well stand the test of time
阅读预言
祈求补救
我们将经受时间的考验
我们会活着看到
我们将成为什么样的人
我们将经受时间的考验
well never succeed by fighting alone
why dont we all pull together as one
weve got the knowhow to see us through
applying it wisely seems harder to do
我们一个人战斗是不会成功的
为什么我们不齐心协力
我们已经掌握了帮助我们度过难关的诀窍
明智地运用它似乎很难做到
we must take time
to face all our demons
in order to keep on succeeding
我们必须花点时间
面对我们所有的恶魔
为了继续成功
reading prophecies
praying for remedies
well stand the test of time
we will live to see
what weve come to be
well stand the test of time
阅读预言
祈求补救
我们将经受时间的考验
我们会活着看到
我们将成为什么样的人
我们将经受时间的考验
#08] Watching The Glow
看着光辉
opening my eyes to a brand new world
a *** change from a wink ago
its hard to describe what this new world is like
Ive never been somewhere like this before
睁开眼睛看一个崭新的世界
一个令人欢迎的改变,从一个眨眼之前
很难描述这个新世界是什么样子
我从没去过这样的地方
like heaven has come unfurled
yet, all I saw was this little glow
I cant believe it, is this my lucky strike?
the gate of bliss, or heavens door
就像天堂已经展开
然而,我看到的只是这小小的光芒
真不敢相信,我是幸运儿吗?
幸福之门,或天堂之门
Im watching the glow
a spark, a flash of light
watching the glow
all the colours turn to white
我在看着光芒
火花,闪光
看着光芒
所有的颜色都变成白色
I close my eyes to see
the serpent moving away from me
I open them up, then go blind
the bland reality escapes my mind
我闭上眼睛去看
巨蛇离我而去
我打开眼睛,然后失明
平淡的现实逃离了我的脑海
I see you approaching me
your nonchalant moves just drifting by
it seem youre gone beyond free
you empty screams, your mind tries to fly
我看见你走近我
你漫不经心的移动只是漂流而过
似乎你已经超越了自由
你空洞的尖叫,你的心想飞翔
Im watching the glow
a spark, a flash of light
watching the glow
all the colours turn to white
我在看着光芒
火花,闪光
看着光芒
所有的颜色都变成白色

沉迷网络1
every morning I wake up scared
scary thoughts going roud in my head
Im feeling sick, Im feeling blue
tell me, tell me, tell me what to do
每天早上我醒来都很害怕
可怕的想法萦绕在我的脑海里
我感到恶心,我感到忧郁
告诉我,告诉我该怎么做
checking cams, Im checking the locks
my trusted clock still ticks and tocks
like a zombie Im walking around
I stop freezing at any little sound
检查摄像头,我在检查锁
我信赖的钟还在滴答作响
就像一个僵尸我到处走动
听到任何一点声音我都会停止冻结
Im still free, in my comfort zone
its not so bad, being alone
Im content, of what life brings to me
friends close by, that I still see
我仍然自由,在我的舒适区
这不是很糟,独自一人
我满足于生活带给我的一切
身边的朋友,我还能看见
when I was a young lad, life was rosy red
my school days were great, shelves of books had to be read
I was cream of the crop by then, my future so bright I could see
all these beautiful girls, what did they see in me
当我还是个小男孩的时候,生活是玫瑰红色的
我上学的日子过得很好,书架上的书都得读一读
我仿佛是作物的精华,我可以看到我的未来如此光明
所有这些美丽的女孩,她们在我身上看到了什么?
got married, had kids and house by the see
one big happy family
brothers and sisters, kids and friends, had no time for TV
we were cream of the crop by then, our future so bright we could see
we had everything we could dream of, but how could this happen to me
结婚了,有了孩子和房子
好一个幸福的大家庭
兄弟姐妹,孩子和朋友,没有时间看电视
我们仿佛是作物的精华,我们可以看到我们的未来如此光明
我们拥有我们所能梦想到的一切,但这怎么会发生在我身上呢?
one fateful day, web was here
hypnotizing people everywhere
the perfect tool, free from any ties
spreading the gossip, spreading the lies
一个重要的日子,网络在这里
到处去催眠人们
完美的工具,没有任何束缚
散布流言蜚语,散布谎言
Im still free, in my comfort zone
its not so bad, being alone
Im content, of what life brings to me
friends close by, that I still see
我仍然自由,在我的舒适区
这不是很糟,独自一人
我满足于生活带给我的一切
身边的朋友,我还能看见
Im still free, in my comfort zone
by myself, but not alone
Im online, this is all fine with me
this great wide web, lets me see
我仍然自由,在我的舒适区
一个人,但不孤独
我在网上,这一切对我来说都很好
这张很大的网,让我好好瞧瞧
#11] Caught in The Web part 2
沉迷网络2
I will not be addicted, never caught in the web
the webs just a place, to catch up the occational threads
maybe an hour or two, before I go to bed
although I know I should be exercising instead
我不会上瘾,永远不会沉迷于网络
网络只是一个地方,用来浏览一些帖子
也许一两个小时,在我睡觉前
虽然我知道我应该去锻炼
like a magnet it sucks you in
if you dont beware
youre forever caught in the web
就像一块磁铁把你吸进去
如果你不小心
你永远被困在网络里
from hand to mouth was always the working mans way
I know I wouldt have it, any other way
Im trying to say, please live for today
make every day count, make it a meaningful day
从头到尾都是工人的作风
我知道我不会拥有它,以任何其他方式
我想说的是,请活在今天
让每一天都有意义,让它成为有意义的一天
like a magnet it sucks you in
if you dont beware
youre forever caught in the web
就像一块磁铁把你吸进去
如果你不小心
你永远被困在网络里
#12] Hope
希望
have you see the sunrise in the morning
seen the sunshine breaking through
seen the early mist, fade in the dawning
have you seen the gold, in the trailing dew
你看过早晨的日出了吗?
看到阳光穿透
看见早期的薄雾,消失在黎明
你见过黄金,在下垂的露水里吗?
have you walked the woods at night a-calling
seen the shadows come to be
have you heard the voices beckoning and calling
have you heard the soul of every tree
你有没有晚上一个人走在树林里
看到了阴影的出现
你有没有听到那些吸引和呼唤的声音?
你听过每一棵树的灵魂吗?
come the night, I look to the sky
I stand and watch the moon pass by
I sense the veil of light fade and fly
as the flames attempt to cling
to the shadows beneath the darkness spring
and the lord of the elven kingdom stats to sing
夜幕降临,我仰望天空
我站着看着月亮掠过
我感觉到光的面纱褪色了,飞起来了
就像火焰试图粘在一起的时候
在黑暗的春天的阴影下
精灵王国的领主要求唱歌
I must follow into the dream
I must follow into the dream
我必须追随梦想
我必须追随梦想
have you tried to sleep in the forest
walked between the wake and dream
being part of nature, thought you were one within
the dreams that haunt us in our sleep
你试过睡在森林里吗?
在醒来和梦想之间走来走去
作为大自然的一部分,以为你是内在的一员
在睡梦中萦绕着我们的梦
everything around me isnt just a dream
the beauty of forest isnt really what it seem
all my life Ive been searching
now, I have found my piece of mind
this is my haven, this is my home
dont wake me up, this is my dream
我周围的一切不只是一个梦
森林的美并不是看上去的那样
我一生都在寻找
现在,我找到了我的心
这是我的避风港,这是我的家
别吵醒我,这是我的梦
