Blacktop pavement cover me 柏油路路面覆盖了我

Like a chemical reaction or a steamroller spreading randomly 就像一个化学反应或压路机随机散布

   

There's a distant buzz and low frequency 有一个遥远的嗡嗡声和低频

It tickles my ear, rumbles under my feet 它逗我耳边隆隆在我的脚下

And it shakes the leaves off of every tree 它动摇了叶子掉所有树上的果子

Violently 猛烈

   

What pretension, everlasting peace 什么预紧，永久和平

Everything must cease 一切必须停止

   

Institution on the hill 机构在山上

Like a beacon in the mind of an ancestor to unite a peoples' will 像祖先的心灵的灯塔，以凝聚了人民的意志

   

There's a shadowed stain on the west facade 有西立面被遮挡的污点

It has spread like decay to enshroud the fraud 它已蔓延像衰减到氤氲的欺诈行为

And the descendants find it oh so odd 和后人发现它是如此奇怪

Oh so odd 哦，真是个古怪

   

What pretension, everlasting peace 什么预紧，永久和平

Everything must cease 一切必须停止

   

Grave memorial, hewn white stone 墓纪念馆，凿白石

Like the comforting caress of a mother or a friend you've always known 像母亲的安慰爱抚还是朋友，你一直都知道

   

It evokes such pain and significance 它唤起的痛苦和意义

What was once is reduced to rememberance 曾经一度减少到rememberance

And the generations pass without recompense 和一代传不报应

   

What pretension, everlasting peace 什么预紧，永久和平

Everything must cease 一切必须停止
