【歌詞翻譯】Daughter - Youth


  2010 年成軍的英倫獨立搖滾樂團 Daughter,由女主唱 Elena Tonra、吉他手 Igor Haefeli 及鼓手 Remi Aguilella 三人共同組成。於 2011 年陸續推出《His Young Heart》和《The Wild Youth》兩張 EP,開始受到關注,並和英國獨立大廠 4AD 簽約,推出單曲「Smother」,驚豔四起。終於,在 2013 年 3/18 獻上首張全創作專輯《If You Leave》。

  Daughter 三人用音樂說故事,以民謠為基底打造搖滾城堡。充滿冰冷孤獨的脆弱感,卻給人一種堅定信念的炙熱力量;悵然失望、迷惘無力的空虛在夢幻的旋律中蔓延,彷彿置身遙遠星空。推薦其中的單曲「Youth」,受困於愛情的孤獨與絕望,看似勇敢面對,卻仍揮之不去。

  Daughter 的《If You Leave》,是張給心碎的人聽的一張專輯!

Lyrics & Translation 歌詞:(by 好青年 中譯)

Written by Elena Tonra and Igor Haefeli

Shadows settle on the place, that you left
陰影盤據在你離開的地方
Our minds are troubled by the emptiness
我們的心靈受空虛所困擾
Destroy the middle, it's a waste of time
中間過程不重要,只是在浪費時間
From the perfect start to the finish line
從完美的開始到了終點線

And if you're still breathing, you're the lucky ones
如果你仍在呼吸,你該感到慶幸
'Cause most of us are heaving through corrupted lungs
因為大多數人是用汙染的肺在苟延殘喘
Setting fire to our insides for fun
為求樂趣而引火自焚
Collecting names of the lovers that went wrong
收集過去失敗的愛人名字
The lovers that went wrong
那些無疾而終的戀人們

We are the reckless
我們懵懂魯莽
We are the wild youth
我們年少輕狂
Chasing visions of our futures
追逐未來幻影
One day we'll reveal the truth
有一天我們會揭開真相:
That one will die before he gets there
幻影是如此遙不可及,就算用盡生命也難以觸及

And if you're still bleeding, you're the lucky ones
如果你的血液仍在流動,你該感到慶幸
'Cause most of our feelings, they are dead and they are gone
因為大多數人的感情,早已麻木且煙消雲散
We're setting fire to our insides for fun
為求樂趣而引火自焚
Collecting pictures from the flood that wrecked our home
在洪水肆虐過後的家園收集照片
It was a flood that wrecked this home
只剩下一片斷垣殘壁

And you caused it
是你造成的
And you caused it
就是你造成的
And you caused it
是你自己一手造成的

Well I've lost it all, I'm just a silhouette
好吧,我已失去所有,我只是浮光掠影
A lifeless face that you'll soon forget
一張毫無生氣的臉孔,你很快就會忘記
My eyes are damp from the words you left
我的雙眼因你留下的話語而濕潤
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest
在腦海中響起,你如此傷我的心
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest
在腦海中響起,你如此傷我的心

And if you're in love, then you are the lucky one
如果你正在戀愛中,那麼你該感到慶幸
'Cause most of us are bitter over someone
因為大多數人都對某人充滿怨懟
Setting fire to our insides for fun
為求樂趣而引火自焚
To distract our hearts from ever missing them
只為讓自己別再想念
But I'm forever missing him
但卻仍永遠惦記著他

And you caused it
是你造成的
And you caused it
就是你造成的
And you caused it
是你自己一手造成的
