The Tower
Vienna Teng

The one who survives by making the lives
of others worthwhile
she's coming apart
right before my eyes
她曾迫于生计
背离自己
如今在我眼前
她的伪装都已碎去

The one who depends on the services she renders
to those who come knocking
she's seeing too clearly what she can't be
what understanding defies
她曾卑躬屈膝
强颜欢喜
她清楚自己的能力所及
更明白这一切的无法抗拒

She says I need not to need
or else a love with intuition
someone who reaches out to my weakness
and won't let go
I need not to need
I've always been the tower
but now I feel like I'm the flower trying to bloom in snow
她说，我并无所求
只要一份纯爱的感受
一个能安抚我脆弱的人
长相厮守
我并无所求
一直坚强的承受
如今却感觉自己像雪中的花朵
昂首绽放，决不低头

She turns out the light anticipating night falling
tenderly around her
and watches the dusk
the words won't come
光影淡去
夜幕如期萦绕身旁
凝视暮蔼处
她许久无言，心绪惆怅

She carries the act so convincingly the fact is
sometimes she believes it
that she can be happy the way things are
be happy with the things she's done
用行动去实现理想
她欣喜异常
那些努力，那些收获
正是她所希望

And I need not to need
or else a love with intuition
someone who reaches out to my weakness
and won't let go
I need not to need
I've always been the tower
but now I feel like I'm the flower trying to bloom in snow
的确，我并无所求
只要一份纯爱的感受
一个能安抚我脆弱的人
长相厮守
我并无所求
一直坚强的承受
如今却感觉自己像雪中的花朵
昂首绽放，决不低头

Reach out
Hold back
where is safety
reach out
and hold back
where is the one who can change me
where is the one
the one
去追求理想
还是维持现状
哪里是我的温床
是追求理想
还是维持现状
能改变我的那个人身在何方
那个人在何方
在何方

Reach out
Hold back
where is safety
reach out
and hold back
where is the one who can save me
where is the one
the one
去追求理想
还是维持现状
哪里是我的温床
是追求理想
还是维持现状
能拯救我的那个人身在何方
那个人在何方
在何方

I need not to need
or else a love with intuition
someone who reaches out to my weakness
and won't let go
I need not to need
I've always been the tower
but now I feel like I'm the flower trying to bloom in snow
我并无所求
只要一份纯爱的感受
一个能安抚我脆弱的人
长相厮守
我并无所求
一直坚强的承受
如今却感觉自己像雪中的花朵
昂首绽放，决不低头

I feel like I'm the flower trying to bloom in snow
The danger and the power
The friend and the foe
我感觉自己像雪中的花朵
昂首绽放，决不低头
危险和力量同在
朋友和敌人共存
