On a cob web afternoon, 上一粒粒网页的下午，

In a room full of emptiness 在满屋子的空虚

By a freeway I confess 由高速公路我承认

I was lost in the pages of a book full of death; 我迷失在一本书充满了死亡的页面;

Reading how we'll die alone. 阅读我们怎么会孤独地死去。

And if we're good we'll lay to rest, 如果我们好，我们就躺着休息，

Anywhere we want to go. 任何地方，我们想去的地方。

   

In your house I long to be; 在你的房子，我渴望;

Room by room patiently, 由房房间耐心，

I'll wait for you there like a stone. 我没有等你像一块石头。

I'll wait for you there alone. 我会等你的人在那里。

   

And on my deathbed I will pray to the gods and the angels, 而在我临终前，我会祈求神灵和天使，

Like a pagan to anyone who will take me to heaven; 像一个异教徒的人谁都会带我去天堂;

To a place I recall, I was there so long ago. 要记得的地方，我在那里很久以前。

The sky was bruised, the wine was bled, and there you led me on. 天空是伤痕累累，酒放血，有你骗我。

   

In your house I long to be; 在你的房子，我渴望;

Room by room, patiently, 逐个房间，耐心，

I'll wait for you there like a stone. 我没有等你像一块石头。

I'll wait for you there alone, alone. 我会等你有孤独，孤独。

   

And on I read until the day was gone; 和我读，直到有一天不见了;

And I sat in regret of all the things I've done; 和我坐在了所有的事情我已经做了后悔;

For all that I've blessed, and all that I've wronged. 对于这一切，我祝福，并且所有的，我已经很委屈。

In dreams until my death I will wander on. 在梦中，直到我死了，我会在徘徊。

   

In your house I long to be; 在你的房子，我渴望;

Room by room, patiently, 逐个房间，耐心，

I'll wait for you there like a stone. 我没有等你像一块石头。

I'll wait for you there alone, alone. 我会等你有孤独，孤独。
