The Prophecy—Taylor Swift
And it was written,
这是注定好了的,
I got cursed like Eve got bitten,
就像被咬的夏娃 我被诅咒了,
Oh, was it punishment?
噢 这是惩罚吗?
Pad around when I get home,
当我回到家后转来转去,
I guess a lesser woman would've lost hope,
我想一个软弱的女人早已绝望,
A greater woman wouldn't beg,
而一个坚强的女人是不会委曲求全的,
But I looked to the sky and said,
但我望着天空说着,
Please,
求求了,
I've been on my knees,
我已经双膝跪在地上,
Change the prophecy,
请改变这预言,
Don't want money,
不需要任何金钱,
Just someone who wants my company,
只是想要一人陪伴我,
Let it once be me,
就成全我一次吧,
Who do I have to speak to,
我又该去和谁倾诉,
About if they can redo,
让他们能帮我重新,
The prophecy?
再预言一次?
Cards on the table,
把牌面摊开,
Mine play out like fools in a fable, oh,
我的占卜就像是寓言里的愚者,
And I sound like an infant,
我的声音如同婴儿一般,
Feelin' like the very last drops of an ink pen,
感觉就像钢笔里挤出的最后一滴墨水,
A greater woman stays cool,
伟大的女人会随时保持冷静,
But I howl like a wolf at the moon,
但我却像狼一样对着月亮嚎叫,
And I look unstable,
我看起来非常不稳定,
Gathered with a coven round a sorceress' table,
和一群女巫聚集在法术桌旁边,
A greater woman has faith,
伟大的女人有着独特的信仰,
But even statues crumble if they're made to wait,
即便是雕像 也会在漫长的等待中瓦解崩塌,
I'm so afraid I sealed my fate,
我很害怕是我封锁了自己的命运,
No sign of soulmates,
没有灵魂伴侣的迹象,
I'm just a paperweight,
我只是个压纸器,
In shades of greige,
活在灰色的阴影里,
Spending my last coin so someone will tell me,
花掉最后一枚硬币 好让他们告诉我,
It'll be ok,
一切都没事的,
Please,
求求了,
I've been on my knees,
我已经双膝跪在地上,
Change the prophecy,
请改变这预言,
Don't want money,
不需要任何金钱,
Just someone who wants my company,
只是想要一人陪伴我,
Let it once be me,
就成全我一次吧,
Who do I have to speak to,
我该去和谁倾诉,
About if they can redo,
让他们能帮我重新,
The prophecy?
再预言一次?
Who do I have to speak to,
我该去和谁倾诉,
To change the prophecy?
来改写这预言?
Hand on the throttle,
手握着油门,
Thought I caught lightning in a bottle, oh,
我以为能捕捉到玻璃瓶里的闪电,
But it's gone again,
可却又消失了,
Pad around when I get home,
当我回到家后转来转去,
I guess a lesser woman would've lost hope,
我想一个软弱的女人早已绝望,
A greater woman wouldn't beg,
而一个坚强的女人是不会委曲求全的,
Please,
虔诚的,
But I looked to the sky and said,
但我仰望着天空说着。
