The guests are stood in silence 客人们肃立

They stare and drink their wine 他们盯着，喝自己的酒

On the wall the canvas hangs 墙上的画布上挂起

Frozen there in time 及时冻结有

They marvel at the beauty 他们惊叹于美丽

The horror and despair 恐怖和绝望

At the wake of the Medusa 在美杜莎的唤醒

No one shed a tear 没有人流下了眼泪

   

Sit my friends and listen 坐在我和朋友听

Put your glasses down 把你的眼镜跌

Sit my friends and listen 坐在我和朋友听

To the voices of the drowned 给淹没了的声音

   

In the moonlight's ghostly glow 在月光下的幽灵般的光芒

I waken in a dream í唤醒在梦中

Once more upon that raft I stand 在那木筏我站一次

Upon a raging sea 在汹涌的大海

In my ears the moans and screams 在我的耳朵的呻吟声和尖叫声

Of the dying ring 垂死的环

Somewhere in the darkness 某处在黑暗中

The siren softly sings 笛声轻轻地唱

   

Out there in the waves she stands 在外面的海浪，她站

And smiling there she calls 微笑还有她打电话

As the lightning cracks the sky 闪电裂缝天空

The wind begins to howl 风开始号啕大哭

   

The architects of our doom 我们厄运的建筑师

Around their tables sit 在他们的桌子坐下

And in their thrones of power 而在权力的宝座

Condemn those they've cast adrift 谴责那些他们已经投漂泊

Echoes down the city street 倒相呼应的城市街道

Their harpies laughter rings 他们的鹰身人的笑声戒指

Waiting for the curtain call 等待谢幕

Oblivious in the wings 不经意的翅膀

   

The casket is empty 棺材是空的

Abandon ye all hope 你们放弃了所有的希望

They ran off with the money 他们跑了钱

And left us with the rope 并给我们留下的绳子
