This can't really be what life is all about 这不能真正的生活是怎么一回事

Learning how to live just to live without 学习如何生活不只是住

The travesty's the irony and the irony is you 嘲弄的讽刺和可笑的是你

I've traded in my sanctity for a cheaper shade of blue 我已经换在我的神圣的蓝色更便宜的遮阳

   

And as I surrender to this sunken bed 当我放弃这个沉船的床

So afflicted by the tenant in my head 因此，由承租人在我的脑海折磨

Even now, I wonder how you lay her down to sleep 即使是现在，我不知道你怎么让她躺在睡

When secretly, I know it's my soul that you pray to keep 当秘密，我知道这是我的灵魂，你祈祷，以保持

But will you really keep me 但你真的让我

   

[First Chorus:] [首合唱：]

(Keep me) （请我）

On your porch, or on your tongue 在你的门廊，或在你的舌头

(Keep me) （请我）

Beating in your chest, or coming undone 跳动在你的胸部，或者被拆开

(Keep me) （请我）

Folded neatly in the cover of your favorite book 在你最喜欢的书的封面叠得整整齐齐

(Keep me) （请我）

At a distance, in your maze 在远处，在你的迷宫

Fumbling through a contemplative haze 通过沉思的阴霾摸索

Or tucked away clandestinely, where no one else will look 或藏秘密，在这里没有人会看

Where my broken sky reaches to your velvet sea 凡我破碎的天空到达你的海绒

Will you keep me, will you keep me 你能不能让我，你能不能让我

   

Drowning in the bottom of this empty glass 淹没在这个空杯子的底部

I pray God is good and that this too shall pass 我祈求上帝是好的，这一切都会过去

Then from the abyss, maybe I'll find a sweet reprieve 然后从深渊，也许我会找一个甜蜜的死缓

When the echo of your kiss reminds me to believe 当你的吻的回声提醒我相信

That you'll always keep me 你永远让我

   

[Second Chorus:] [第二合唱：]

(Keep me) （请我）

Under God or on your wall 在上帝或在墙上

(Keep me) （请我）

Behind closed doors, forever after all 闭门造车，永远毕竟

(Keep me) （请我）

Or headed south on the blacktop ribbon we designed 或南下上，我们设计了柏油路丝带

(Keep me) （请我）

The mantle of integrity 诚信的衣钵

(Keep me) （请我）

Investing in something I'll never see 投资于事我永远不会看到

(Keep me) （请我）

At thirty-thousand feet or in the windows of your mind 在30千英尺或在你的心中的窗

In a corner of your heart, under lock and key 在一个角落里你的心脏，在锁和钥匙

Will you keep me, will you keep me 你能不能让我，你能不能让我

   

[Bridge:] [桥： ]

Traipsing on hallowed ground 闲逛的圣地

Has brought a lifelong sentence 带来了终身的判决

Now, living without your breath to fill my lungs 现在，生活没有你的呼吸，以填补我的肺

Will be my penance 将是我的忏悔

And even as I feel 甚至，我觉得

I hope you feel it just as deeply 我希望你觉得它就像深深

And even though you've let me go 而且即使你让我走

Say you'll always keep me 说你会永远让我

Say you'll always keep me 说你会永远让我

   

The melody you misconstrue 你曲解的旋律

On the ocean crashing into you 在海洋撞入你

Or waiting for the man you'll never have the heart to be 或等待的人，你永远不会有心脏要

In the fervent strains of the tragic elegy 在悲惨的挽歌的热切株

   

Will you keep me 你能不能让我

Will you keep me 你能不能让我

Oh, oh, will you keep me 哦，哦，你能不能让我

Will you keep me 你能不能让我

   

[Fade] [淡出]
