Along the edge of the mississippi 沿密西西比河的边缘

A thousand hearts bleed 千心在流血

My heart looking for something to execute 我的心脏寻找的东西来执行

In the mississippi 在密西西比河

Up against its current 对抗当前的

My heart so alive 我的心脏这样活着

Submerged in the [?] dark 在淹没[？]黑暗

   

Who could hold me here 谁能够把我抱在这里

Who could hold me down 谁能够抓住我

Sitting on the edge of the mississippi 坐在密西西比河边

River of slaves 奴隶河

River of bones 骨头的河

I have been down here 我一直在这儿

Across generations 跨代

A lifetimes ago à寿命前

I was sold amongst the thieves 我是卖之间的贼

I don't ignore the cries 我没有理会呼声

I hear them 我听到他们

   

I am conscious along the mississippi 我是有意识的沿着密西西比河

I hear the footsteps of ghosts 我听到鬼的脚步

I hear them scream behind me 我听到他们的尖叫在我身后

I see their boats sink 我看到他们的船沉没

   

But I am very alive 但我很活着

She draws me to her breath 她吸引我到她的气息

She whispers with her voice 她低语，她的声音

Her comfort is all I want or need 她安慰就是我想要或需要

Alone on saturday night 仅上周六晚

Me and the mississippi 我和密西西比

   

Two rivers flowing together 两江汇聚在一起

Flowing internal 内部流动

A river of darkness 黑暗的河流

A river of light 光的河流

Blend as one 融合为一体

   

Together against the impossible 一起对抗是不可能的

Ends we face 完我们面临

Our lunatic charm 我们疯狂的魅力

She can never claim me 她永远不能声称我

Nor I her 我也不清楚她

We flow together eternal 我们一起流动的永恒

We flow together as one 我们流合为一体

   

And I am the mississippi 而我密西西比河
