歌词
作词 : Taylor Swift
作曲 : Taylor Swift
Once, I had an empire in a golden age 繁荣盛世之间 我曾如创帝业 坐拥一切
I was held up so high, I used to be great 高高在上 昔日多么辉煌
They used to cheer when they saw my face 人们见我 纷纷欢呼
Now, I fear I have fallen from grace 如今我担忧 自己早已从云端跌落
And I feel like my castle's crumbling down 我的城堡好似摇摇欲坠
And I watch all my bridges burn to the ground 目睹桥梁纷纷毁灭破碎
And you don't want to know me, I will just let you down 你不愿去深入了解我 我只会让你失望
You don't wanna know me now 如今你连了解我都极不情愿
Once, I was the great hope for a dynasty 曾是王朝的伟大希望
Crowds would hang on my words and they trusted me 人们拜倒在我的豪言壮语之下 他们对我深信不疑
Their faith was strong, but I pushed it too far 他们信心十分坚定 可后来事情的走向有些过了火
I held that grudge 'til it tore me apart 我一意孤行 结果不过是自我折磨
Power went to my head and I couldn't stop 权力冲昏头脑 我无法停下脚步
Ones I loved tried to help, so I ran them off 我爱的人试图伸出援手 却被我赶走
And here I sit alone behind walls of regret 如今我独自坐在懊悔的围墙后
Falling down like promises that I never kept 四周崩塌下来 宛如未曾实现的承诺
And I feel like my castle's crumbling down 我的城堡好似摇摇欲坠
And I watch all my bridges burn to the ground 目睹桥梁纷纷毁灭破碎
And you don't want to know me, I will just let you down 你不愿去认识我 我只会让你失望
You don't wanna know me now 如今你连了解我都极不情愿
My foes and friends watch my reign end 敌人和朋友都目睹我的统治结束
I don't know how it could've ended this way 我不明白事情怎么会以这样的方式收场
Smoke billows from my ships in the harbor 港口船只的烟气滚滚而出
People look at me like I'm a monster 人们看着我 仿佛在看怪物
Now they're screaming at the palace front gates 如今他们在宫殿前的大门前高声喊叫
Used to chant my name 曾经高呼我的名字
Now they're screaming that they hate me 如今众人不住尖叫 满嘴都是对我的憎恨
Never wanted you to hate me 可我从不希望收到来自你的恨意
My castle's crumbling down 我的城堡好似摇摇欲坠
And I watch all my bridges burn to the ground 目睹桥梁纷纷毁灭破碎
And you don't want to know me, I will just let you down 你不愿去认识我
My castle's crumbling down 我只会让你失望
You don't wanna know me now 如今你连了解我都极不情愿
