A Tower of Ashes
A Tower of Ashes - Theocracy
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Behold the tower
看那高塔巍峨耸立
Brick by brick we raise it
一砖一瓦我们亲手筑起
Upward to the sky
直指苍穹之巅
To reach the heights of heaven
欲触及天堂圣境
And beyond
乃至更高远
With eyes of fire and burning pride
眼中烈焰燃烧着骄傲
Our power cannot be denied
我们的力量无可阻挡
So god himself can look
让神明亲自见证
At what we've done
我们究竟做了什么
Questioning my own intent and motive
质疑着自己的初衷与动机
Babel are you really all that far away
巴别塔啊 你真的那么遥不可及吗
Sometimes I wonder what we'd do
有时我在想 当掌声消散
If the applause had died
我们会如何自处
And we found ourselves performing
当我们发现自己在空荡的舞台上
To an empty hall upon an empty stage
对着空无一人的大厅表演
The eyes of God or the eyes of man
是取悦上帝还是世人
No one can serve two masters
无人能侍奉二主
In opposing masterplans
在相悖的宏图中
But we go our way
但我们仍一意孤行
And keep climbing higher and higher
不断攀向更高处
But farther to fall
却坠得更深重
And we build all our strongholds
我们筑起所有堡垒
Behind all our walls
藏于高墙之后
But we stand on the threshold
却立于毁灭边缘
Of losing it all
失去一切的痛楚
All the glory we crave
我们渴望的所有荣光
All the towers we raise
我们建造的所有高塔
All the pride we build up to the sky
我们筑向天际的骄傲
When the vanity fades
当虚荣消散
The illusion gives way to a tower
幻象崩塌成一座
Of ashes and lies
灰烬与谎言的塔
Still we seek to build our towers
我们仍试图重建高塔
Higher and higher
不断攀升 直抵云霄
Sometimes when we think
有时当我们以为
We're so high
已至高无上
The only way to go is down
却不知唯一方向是坠落
When it is our pride that takes us
当骄傲引领我们
Higher and higher
不断攀升 直抵云霄
We watch our towers crumble
却目睹高塔倾塌
And in helplessness we hit the ground
在绝望中坠入深渊
Higher and higher
不断攀升 直抵云霄
But farther to fall
却坠得更深重
And we build all our strongholds
我们筑起所有堡垒
Behind all our walls
藏于高墙之后
But we stand on the threshold
却立于毁灭边缘
Of losing it all
失去一切的痛楚
All the glory we crave
我们渴望的所有荣光
All the towers we raise
我们建造的所有高塔
All the pride we build up to the sky
我们筑向天际的骄傲
When the vanity fades
当虚荣消散
The illusion gives way to a tower
幻象崩塌成一座
Of ashes and
灰烬之塔
The tower
这座塔
Of ashes and
灰烬之塔
The tower
这座塔
Of ashes and lies
灰烬与谎言的塔
