Preacher - OneRepublic
When I was a kid
记得在天真的童年里,
I used to buy and sell gravity
地心引力曾唯我所控
I knew how to fly
我知道飞翔的秘诀,
And I would teach you for a fee
给点好处我便会教你
Broke every window
心灵像一间旅馆,
In my hotel heart
飞翔时撞破了每一扇窗
When I was only 5 years old
虽才年仅五岁,
but 12 years scarred
却已像少年般满身是伤
And I'd hear the same voice
总是听到同样的声音,
Echo in my mind
在我的脑中不断回响
Said, ""Son you got an angel,
他说"孩子你心中的天使,
To chase the devil at night.""
会在黑夜中为你消灾避祸"
Yeah
夜
When I was a kid
在我还年幼时,
My grandfather was a preacher
祖父是名牧师
He'd talk about God
常谈神的奥义,
Yeah he was something like a teacher
耶 如同一位良师
He said, ""God only helps those
他说 上帝至帮助那些
Who learn to help themselves.""
自助者
He was a million miles from a million dollars
虽然他离腰缠万贯相去万里
But you could never spend his wealth
却留给了我无尽的精神财富
I took a little faith
我原本心存一丝信念
And put it in a parking lot
并把它放在了停车场
I drove to a strange town
驶进那光怪陆离的城市,
Full of ""have"" and ""have nots""
人人都为了物质而挣扎
And as I walked through that storybook life
一路走来,事过境迁,所见之景,不断变换
I was looking for an angel
我却始终在寻找着
to chase the devil at night
黑夜中的守护天使

Who learn to help themselves.""

Wave

Put your hands up and hands down
你的双手,高举后再落下
