Perfect Way To Die - Alicia Keys (艾莉西亚·凯斯)
Lyrics by:Alicia Keys/Sebastian Kole
Composed by:Alicia Keys/Sebastian Kole
Simple walk to the corner store
不过就是去了趟街角的商店
Momma never thought she would be getting a call from the coroner
妈妈从没想到她会接到验尸官的电话
Said her son's been gunned down been gunned down
说她儿子被枪杀了
"Can you come now"
你现在能来吗
Tears in her eyes "Can you calm down
她眼里饱含泪水 你能否冷静下来
Please ma'am can you calm down"
拜托了 女士 你能否冷静下来
But it rained fire in the city that day
但是那天城里战火纷飞
They say
他们说
A river of blood in the streets
街上血流成河
No love in the streets
街头没有一点爱
And then came silence in the city that day
然后整个城市陷入了死寂
They say
他们说
Just another one gone
又一个人离开人世
And they tell her "Move on"
他们叫她别再悲伤
And she's stuck there singing
而她困在原地 歌唱着
Baby don't you close your eyes
宝贝 不要闭上眼睛
This could be our final time
这可能是我们最后一次见面
And you know I'm horrible at saying goodbye
你知道我最害怕的就是说再见
And I think of all you could've done
我想起了你能做的一切
At least you'll stay forever young
至少你会永远年轻
I guess you've picked the perfect way to die
或许 你选择了最完美的方式死去
Ooh I guess you picked the perfect way to die
或许 你选择了最完美的方式死去
New job new city new her
新工作 新城市 新的她
Bright eyes you would've been proud if you knew her
精神饱满 如果你认识她 你会感到骄傲
Flashing lights in the mirror pull over pull over
后视镜里闪烁着灯光 靠边停车
A couple nights in detention then it's over
拘留所待了几夜 完了
Her whole life's over
她的整个人生都完了
They came marching in the city that day
那天他们在城里游行
They say
他们说
Carrying signs in the streets
举着牌子走在街头
Crying eyes in the street
一边走 一边哭
But they heard nothing from the city that day
但他们那天没有听到城里的任何消息
They say
他们说
Just another one gone
又一个人离开人世
And the city moves on
城市照常运转
We're stuck here singing
我们困在原地 歌唱着
Baby don't you close your eyes
宝贝 不要闭上眼睛
'Cause this could be our final time
因为这可能是我们最后一次见面
And you know I'm horrible at saying goodbye
你知道我最害怕的就是说再见
And I think of all you could've done

At least you'll stay forever young

I guess you've picked the perfect way to die
或许 你选择了最完美的方式死去
Oh I guess you picked the perfect way to die
或许 你选择了最完美的方式死去
Another dream lost
又一个梦破灭了
Another king and queen lost
又一个国王和王后失败了
Another broken promise they refuse to make right
又一次违背承诺 他们也不愿弥补
Oh another night to live in fear
又是一个在恐惧中度过的夜
Oh another night that you're not here
又是一个你不在的夜晚
Another reason to get out there and fight
又一个奋起抗争的理由
But I say
但我说
Baby don't you close your eyes
宝贝 不要闭上眼睛
'Cause this could be our final time
因为这可能是我们最后一次见面
And you know I'm horrible at saying goodbye

I guess you've picked the perfect way to die

Oh I guess you picked the perfect way
