Once I wanted to be the greatest 有一次，我想成为最伟大的

No wind or waterfall could stall me 无风或瀑布可以搪塞我

And then came the rush of the flood 随后而来的洪水高峰

Stars at night turned deep to dust 晚上看星星变成深尘

   

Melt me down 我融化

Into big black armour 成大黑色盔甲

Leave no trace of grace 不留一丝风度

Just in your honor 就在你的荣誉

Lower me down 放下我失望

To culprit south 要祸首南

Make 'em wash a space in town 让时间在城里洗了个空

For the lead 为引

And the dregs of my bed 和我的床的掉渣

I've been sleeping 我一直在睡觉

Lower me down 放下我失望

Pin me in 我的脚在

Secure the grounds 安全的理由

For the later parade 为后来的游行

   

Once I wanted to be the greatest 有一次，我想成为最伟大的

Two fists of solid rock 两个拳头的固体岩石

With brains that could explain 有头脑，可以解释

Any feeling 感觉

   

Lower me down 放下我失望

Pin me in 我的脚在

Secure the grounds 安全的理由

For the lead 为引

And the dregs of my bed 和我的床的掉渣

I've been sleeping 我一直在睡觉

For the later parade 为后来的游行

   

Once I wanted to be the greatest 有一次，我想成为最伟大的

No wind or waterfall could stall me 无风或瀑布可以搪塞我

And then came the rush of the flood 随后而来的洪水高峰

The stars at night turned deep to dust 在夜晚的星星变成深尘
