Tears and Rain

Yet another of my favorite songs.. this one is by James Blunt..
The lyrics resonant within me, touch me and at times, bring tears to my eyes..

Tears and Rain
How I wish I could surrender my soul;
Shed the clothes that become my skin;
See the liar that burns within my needing.
How I wish I'd chosen darkness from cold.
How I wish I had screamed out loud,
Instead I've found no meaning.

I guess it's time I run far, far away; find comfort in pain,
All pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
Hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray.
I've heard what they say, but I'm not here for trouble.
It's more than just words: it's just tears and rain.

How I wish I could walk through the doors of my mind;
Hold memory close at hand,
Help me understand the years.
How I wish I could choose between Heaven and Hell.
How I wish I would save my soul.
I'm so cold from fear.

I guess it's time I run far, far away; find comfort in pain,
All pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
Hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray.
I've heard what they say, but I'm not here for trouble.
Far, far away; find comfort in pain.
All pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
It's more than just words: it's just tears and rain.

Ahhh..
Tears and Rain.
Tears and Rain.

Far, far away; find comfort in pain,
All pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
It's more than just words: it's just tears and rain.

我的译文：

泪水与雨水
多希望我能够交出我的灵魂；
除去那已变成肌肤的华丽衣裳；
正视那因需要而演变成的骗局。
多希望我是选择了黑暗而不是寒冬。
多希望我可以大声地呐喊，
无奈我却认为那是毫无意义的。

我想是时候我逃离这里，逃得远远地；
在痛苦中找寻着安慰，
所有的欢乐都一样，只为了不让我继续闯祸。
隐藏了真正的自己，就像道林·格雷。
我也听说了有关自己的谣言，但我不想多添加是非。
那些已不只是纯粹的言语，它们都是雨水交杂着的泪水。。

多希望我可以穿梭脑里的那些门槛；
紧紧把回忆握在手心，
协助我了解逝去的这些年。
多希望我能够在天堂跟地狱之间做出选择。。
多希望我可以解救自己的灵魂。
恐惧让我完全地寒彻心扉。。

我想是时候我逃离这里，逃得远远地；
在痛苦中找寻着安慰，
所有的欢乐都一样，只为了不让我继续闯祸。
隐藏了真正的自己，就像道林·格雷。
我也听说了有关自己的谣言，但我不想多添加是非。
那些已不只是纯粹的言语，它们都是雨水交杂着的泪水。。
逃得远远地；在痛苦中找寻着安慰，
所有的欢乐都一样，只为了不让我继续闯祸。
那些已不只是纯粹的言语，它们都是雨水交杂着的泪水。。

啊。。。
泪水与雨水。
泪水与雨水。。

逃得远远地；在痛苦中找寻着安慰，
所有的欢乐都一样，只为了不让我继续闯祸。
那些已不只是纯粹的言语，它们都是雨水交杂着的泪水。。
