Written by：A.C. Newman

We're lit by a torch

火炬照亮我们身影

As we kneel in the court of the king

跪拜在国王的殿堂

As we sift through the bones of an idol

筛落神像的骸骨尘灰

We dig for the bones of an idol

我们挖掘着神明的遗骨

When the will is gone'

当意志消逝殆尽时

'Cause something keeps turning us on

仍有力量在点燃我们

You hold up the cup

你高举圣杯

You've been searching for

你一直在追寻

Since you were young

自年少时起

When you still had the bones of an idol

当你仍怀揣着偶像的遗骨

If you still had the bones of an idol

若你仍紧握着那遗骨

You'd be long long gone

你早已远走高飞

But something keeps turning you on

但某种力量仍在驱使你前行

We cling to the raft we are missing

我们紧抓着残缺的浮木

By half what we wanted

仅得半份所求

But we escaped with the bones of an idol

但我们带着神像遗骨逃离

Escaped with the belt and the title

带着权柄与名号脱身

But our land is gone

故土虽已沦丧

And something keeps turning us on

仍有力量催我们前行
