“Faded” BY Harley Quinn & The Joker
You were the shadow to my light
猶如影子一般跟隨著我
Did you feel us?
你感受到我們了嗎?
Another star, you fade away
如流星般消逝
Afraid our aim is out of sight
害怕我們的一切即將消逝眼前
Wanna see us, alive
期盼我們能夠一直存在
Where are you now?
你現在哪裡呢?
Where are you now?
現在你在何處?
Where are you now?
你聽的到我的呼喚嗎?
Was it all in my fantasy?
難道這一切只是幻影?
Where are you now?
你在哪裡呢?
Were you only imaginary?
難道你只是我的幻想嗎?
Where are you now?
你在何處呢?
Atlantis, under the sea, under the sea
猶如亞特蘭提斯一般沒入海底
Where are you now?
你身在何處呢?
Another dream
另一個夢境嗎
The monster's running wild inside of me
內心深處的心魔正在奔騰
I'm faded, I'm faded
即將把我吞噬
So lost, I'm faded, I'm faded
迷失了自我，任憑消逝
So lost, I'm faded
好迷惘，而我即將消逝
These shallow waters never met what I needed
淺水處永遠無法前往心之所向
I'm letting go, a deeper dive
讓自己沉入海中
Eternal silence of the sea
感受永恆寧靜之海
I'm breathing, alive
重新活過來
Where are you now?
而你在哪裡呢?
Where are you now?
你身在何處呢?
Under the bright but faded lights
即將消逝在光影中
You set my heart on fire
你點燃我心中熊熊烈火
Where are you now?
而你現在在哪裡呢?
Where are you now?
你在何處呢?
Where are you now?
聽得到我的呼喚嗎?
Atlantis, under the sea, under the sea
猶如偉大帝國般沉入深海
Where are you now?
你現在在哪裡?
Another dream
另一個夢境
The monster's running wild inside of me
心裡的惡魔即將吞噬我
I'm faded, I'm faded
我將消逝了
So lost, I'm faded, I'm faded
如此迷失,漸漸地消逝
So lost, I'm faded
如此迷惘,消失在你世界
