DEAR GOD
Permalink   


This is  translation I hve done and uploaded at Pinkies World... feel free to comment or edit.... 
 
This is track #3 from the black tangerine album... a song inspired by 911.... Its all about love...     There seems to be a lot of despair... questioning God when things go wrong... not unexpected, as that is how many of us felt too.

It's not uncommon for people to question God when things go wrong... I recommend a read of (1) the book of Job in the bible and (2) Disappointment with God by Philip Yancey



Dear God
 
Just watched the 6.30 news
The tragedy is being repeated
A mother holding her son’s photo
Hoping to see him again

Can’t bear to see what’s on the screen
I turned away and started to weep
Was that judgment or was it a testing
How much more heartaches do we have to bear

Love….. Love ...
Love has been forgotten by the world
Nobody believes, nobody believes in love anymore
Truth and justice are like jokes
I no longer want to live in such a city
Conversations are centered on violence and bloodshed
Lots of gossiping but no solution
All planning to escape, everyone is playing a game
No one cares if you don’t have money
I am angry, but I have to keep my emotion in check,
So much so that I seem to have grown numb
Using one’s life as a chip
How much longer must this madness go on
 
Love has lost its meaning in this world
Nobody cares, nobody cares if there is no love
It makes me want to swear
It’s not my fault, I am not to blame

Dear God, why do you close your eyes to all these
Why don’t you come up with answers
Pretending not to see, just pretending not seeing
Tell me the way to restore love in this world
Since there is no way that I can leave this dreadful world
 This dreadful place, is still my home

Just received news from a faraway place
Seems that the nightmare has not ended
Please give me strength, so I can continue to live
Dear God, where are you?
 





Dear God
 
剛剛看完六點半的新聞
那悲劇 又重演
有個媽媽拿著兒子的相片
期盼他 會出現
看不下那畫面 我轉過頭卻開始流淚
是懲罰是考驗 還要有多少的心碎
 
愛 愛 在這個世界上愛已被忘記
誰都不相信 誰都不相信 相信愛
哎 哎 真理和公平都變成了笑話
我不願意住在這樣的城市裡
話題都圍繞在腥色暴力 有八卦沒想法
計算逃避人人都在玩遊戲 沒有錢沒人理你
我心裡很憤怒 只能冷酷讓自己麻木
拿生命 做賭注 這些瘋狂還要多久
 
愛 愛 在這個世界上有沒有意義
沒有人在乎 沒有人在乎 沒有愛
哎 哎 我真的很想要開口罵髒話
不是我的錯 不是我的錯 別怪我
 
DEAR GOD為什麼你閉上眼不想想辦法
裝做看不見 裝做看不見 告訴我 哎 哎
告訴我把愛找回來的方法
因為我無法離開這個鬼地方 (我沒有辦法離開 NO NO)
這個鬼地方 (這個鬼地方)
它還是我的家
 
剛剛看完遠方傳來的消息
像惡夢在繼續 給點力量讓自己能活下去 DEAR GOD
你在哪裡 NA NA NA WO WO WO YEAH YEAH YEAH.
