Avril Lavigne在2013年的時候確診患上萊姆病(Lyme disease)。受病患困擾下,Avril Lavigne 選擇閉關在家,在飽受精神及身體勞損下對抗病魔。花了5年的時間,在2018年9月5日終於宣佈正式回歸樂壇。並寫了新作Head Above Water。
以下是Head Above Water的中英文歌詞:
[Verse 1]
I've gotta keep the calm before the storm
即便將遭受狂風暴雨的摧殘,我仍試圖保持冷靜
I don’t want less, I don't want more
我只要像現在一樣,不需要再退讓或苛求
Must bar the windows and the doors
我必須封住每一扇窗戶和門
To keep me safe, to keep me warm
才能夠保全自己,讓我自己暖和
Yeah, my life is what I'm fighting for
我的生命是經過不斷的搏鬥得來的
Can’t part the sea, can't reach the shore
我無法將海水與我分離,連海岸的邊際也摸不著
And my voice becomes the driving force
我的聲音成了我前進的原動力
I won't let this pull me overboard
我永遠不會被苦難擊倒
[Chorus]
God, keep my head above water
神啊,請讓我的頭探出水面
Don't let me drown, it gets harder
不要讓我溺斃於水中,我感覺活下去的希望愈趨渺茫
I'll meet you there at the altar
我將會虔誠的在神壇前與祢重逢
As I fall down to my knees
我將會在祢的面前以雙膝跪地
Don't let me drown, drown, drown
所以請別讓我沉沒於水中
Don't let me, don't let me, don’t let me drown
不要讓我絕望地在汪洋之中掙扎
[Verse 2]
So pull me up from down below
請祢將我從水底拉起
’Cause I'm underneath the undertow
因為我正受困於強勁的逆流中無法脫身
Come dry me off and hold me close
帶我脫離這片汪洋,弄乾全身溼透的我,再緊緊地摟住我
I need you now, I need you most
我現在渴求著祢的幫助,比任何人都需要
[Chorus]
God, keep my head above water
神啊,請讓我的頭探出水面
Don't let me drown, it gets harder
不要讓我溺斃於水中,我感覺活下去的希望愈趨渺茫
I'll meet you there at the altar
我將會在神壇前與祢重逢
As I fall down to my knees
虔誠地跪倒在祢的面前,以感謝祢的大恩大德
Don't let me drown, drown, drown
所以請別讓我沉沒於水中
Don't let me, don’t let me, don't let me drown
別讓我繼續在深水中痛苦地掙扎
Don't let me drown, drown, drown
別讓我無助地在水中浮沉,只能等候死亡的降臨
Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me drown(keep my head above water, above water)
別讓我在水中載浮載沉,使我難以呼吸(讓我的頭浮出水面,讓我得以活下去)
[Bridge]
And I can't see in the stormy weather
我在狂風暴雨中被蒙蔽了視線
I can't seem to keep it all together
我似乎再也無法維持自己的理智
And I, I can't swim the ocean like this forever
我無法永遠像現在一樣在水中為自己的生命奮鬥
And I can't breathe
因為我現在已經無法呼吸
[Refrain]
God, keep my head above water
神啊,請祢讓我的頭浮出水面
I lose my breath at the bottom
我在水底已經逐漸失去了氣息
Come rescue me, I'll be waiting
拜託祢快來拯救我,我一定會耐心地等候祢的到來
I'm too young to fall asleep
我還沒真正經歷過人生,不能就此沉睡於無盡的深淵中
[Chorus]
God, keep my head above water
神啊,請讓我的頭浮出水面
Don't let me drown, it gets harder
不要讓我沉淪於水中,我感覺活下去的希望漸漸渺茫
I'll meet you there at the altar
我會在神壇前與祢重逢
As I fall down to my knees
虔誠地跪倒在你面前,以感謝祢無私的救命之恩
[Outro]
Don't let me drown (don't let me, don't let me drown)
別讓我就此被苦難擊倒(別讓我被擊倒)
Don't let me drown (don't let me, don't let me drown)
別讓我在水中痛苦地掙扎(別讓我在水中掙扎)
Don't let me drown (don't let me, don't let me drown)
別讓我沉沒在洶湧的浪濤中(別讓我被兇猛的水勢淹沒)
Keep my head above water, above water
讓我的頭浮出水面
