WaitingfortheEnd是美国著名摇滚乐队LinkinPark第四张录音室专辑AThousandSuns中的歌曲。较之前三张专辑,风格上有非常大的转变,抛弃了以往的沙哑声的歌唱风格,转而向流行音乐风格发展。
此专辑的创作灵感来自被称为美国“原子弹之父”的物理学家罗伯特•奥本海默(J。RobertOppenheimer),在史上第一颗原子弹试爆时想起了印度著名史诗,引用所说出的一段名句:「Iftheradianceofathousandsunsweretoburstatonceintothesky,thatwouldbelikethesplendoroftheMightyOne」,由此,可以看出此乐团新作充满反战意识,以超现实主义的手法,完整地编织出这张前所未有的概念式惊奇大碟。而歌曲「WaitingForTheEnd」则表现了让现实与虚拟、真相与谎言,全都打破了界限、相互牵制。
This is not the end, this is not the beginning
这不是结局 也不是开篇
Just a voice like a riot rocking every revision
只是一个如震颤每一重复的骚乱般的声音
But you listen through the tone and the violent rhythm
可你聆听这曲调 听这激昂节奏
And though the words sound steady, something empty's within 'em
并且尽管词语听似深沉 其中却是空虚
Say yeah with fists flying up in the air
说 yeah 拳头在空中挥舞着
Like we're holding onto something that's invisible there
好像我们在抓着那里的一个隐形
Cause we're living at the mercy of the pain and fear
因为痛苦与恐惧支配着我们的生活因为痛苦与恐惧支配着我们的生活
Until we dead it, forget it, let it all disappear
