英语美文：一生太短，一瞬好长

“一辈子不长，在有限的时间里，尽情的活成自己想要的模样。” It was a long time coming but plain to see When I held his shaking hand, he couldn't look at me He said something about losing, losing the will to go on He looked off into the distance, I knew his mind had gone 很长一段时间了，但是显而易见 当我握着他颤抖的手，他并没有看着我 他说些关于失败的话，失败仍在继续 他转开视线看着远方，我知道他的心已经走了。 He lights a candle, it has a soft kind of glow He's scared of the dark but he won't let nobody know Cause when the midnight demons are creeping through the night He knows they'll get to him when he's run out of fight 他点燃一支蜡烛，它有种柔和的光芒 他因为黑暗而恐惧，但他不让任何人知道 因为当子夜的魔鬼爬过夜晚 在他用尽斗志以后，将会被他们带走 Was it trying to get it right that made it wrong Or was it just a road that went on way too long Too long, too long, too long 努力明白这一生曾经的对与错 或者这只是一条路，走了太漫长的时间 太漫长，太漫长，太漫长。 He searches for words, but the words disappear He talks so quietly, you move closer to hear He's looking for answers but you don't know what to say Just help him through the night into another day 他找寻词语，但所有词语都消失了 他静静地说着什么，得靠近才能听见 他等待着答案，但你却不知道该说什么 只能帮助他渡过夜晚，直到新的一天来临 He's falling over the edge of the abyss Holding on and reaching out and hoping he won't miss I say "Grab a hold of something, something beautiful and true Someday the world is going to smile for you" 他在深渊的边缘徘徊 坚持着、伸出手并希望不会坠落 我说：“握住一些可以握住的东西， 一些真实又美丽的东西 有一天世界会为你微笑”。 Was it trying to get it right that made it wrong Or was it just a road that went on way too long Too long, too long, too long  努力明白这一生曾经的对与错 或者这只是一条路，走了太漫长的时间 太漫长，太漫长，太漫长。 —《Road Too Long》（路漫长） By Allan Taylor（艾伦·泰勒）
