第一篇~

I think the verses are about accepting the world as it is "Another tear, another cry, another place for us to die it's not complicated." People will keep crying, people will keep shedding tears, there will keep being places to die, it's not particularly complicated, and you just have to accept it, because that's how the world is.
Then, in the chorus, it's a bit more said. "Do you ever wonder if the stars shine out for you?" I believe this is like "Do you believe in God?" and is supposed to ask if this person thinks there's someone out there protecting him/her, if there's someone out there to make the desicions and make them give sense, in the end. "Float down like autumn leaves." I think this means "come back." Come back, let your sould float back to Earth. "Close your eyes before the sleep." Close your eyes when you die, don't let me see the light leave your eyes. "You're miles away." I believe this means that he/she is in Heaven. "Yesterday you were here with me." That doesn't need any interpretation, it states quite plainly what it means. Maybe no yesterday, but not long ago, either.
Then there's the second verse. The first three lines are the same as the first verse, but the next part is different."Another love that's gone to waste, another light gone from your face, it's complicated."This is more like, "now you are dead, I have lost the one I love, you're even weaker, I can't reach you anymore, I don't know what to do," as if he's trying to get a response.
"Is it that it's over or do birds still sing for you?" I think this means, "Now that you now, do you still believe in God?" And is pretty much the same as "Do you ever wonder if the stars shine out for you?" except, in the second chorus, it's more asking for confirmation than asking for an opinion on the subject.
"My symphony played the song that carried you out." I believe this means that he was singing to him/her. Perhaps singing a lullaby, trying to make the person fall asleep so that death would be gentler, and then the last thing the person hears is the sound of the voice, singing him/her to sleep.
我认为主歌部分讲的是关于接受这个“Another tear, another cry, another place for us to die it's not complicated.”的世界。人们不断地哭泣着,又不断抚去泪水,不断有生命离开,这其实并不复杂,并且你能做的只有坦然接受这个事实,因为这就是这个世界的自然规律。
然后来到副歌部分,这一段更多讲述的是“Do you ever wonder if the stars shine out for you?”我相信它更像在询问“你相信神灵吗?”,询问歌中这个人是否认为在云层上方会有某个事物在默默保护着自己,是否认为那个事物会在最后时刻为自己做出决定。“Float down like autumn leaves.”我觉得这一句的意思是“come back.”come back,让你的灵魂飘回到地面。“Close your eyes before the sleep.”在你去世前请闭上双眼,别让我亲眼见证你美丽的双眸渐渐失去光芒。“You're miles away.”我相信这表明歌中所唱的那个人已经去了天堂。“and yesterday you were here with me."这一句不需要过多解释了。
接下来就是第二段主歌部分。头三句的含义与第一段头三句意义相同,但剩下的部分含义就不一样了。 "Another love that's gone to waste, another light gone from your face, it's complicated."这一句更像是,“现在你已经走了,我失去了心头挚爱,我已无法看见你那渐渐虚荣的灵魂,我不知道接下来该怎么做。”他努力想得到那可能已去往天堂,高高俯视着他的灵魂的回应。
"Is it that it's over or do birds still sing for you?" 我觉得这一句的意思是,“现在你已经来到天堂,你依旧相信神灵吗?”这和第一段中"Do you ever wonder if the stars shine out for you?"这一句非常相似,除了第二段中,更注重于获得确认而不是询问意见。
"My symphony played the song that carried you out."表明歌手正唱着歌给ta听。可能是一首摇篮曲,试着让ta陷入安眠,那样死神就会来的轻柔些,然后ta所听到的最后的余音也就是这送ta入眠的歌曲的旋律。(也有可能表明这首歌就是为纪念ta而写,译注)
