This air between us is getting thinner now

Into winter now, bitter sweet

Across that horizon this sun is setting down

You're forgetting now

It's time you let me go, let me go

When the lights go out and we open our eyes,

Out there in the silence

I'll be gone, I'll be gone

Let the sun fade out and another one rise

Climbing through tomorrow

I'll be gone, I'll be gone

And tell them I couldn't help myself

And tell them I was alone

Oh, tell me I am the only one

And there's nothing left to stop me

When the lights go out and we open our eyes

Out there in the silence

I'll be gone, I'll be gone

Let the sun fade out and another one rise

Climbing through tomorrow

I'll be gone, I'll be gone.

I'll be gone

Like shining oil, this night is dripping down

夜如波光粼粼的水波般荡来

Stars are slipping down, glistening

流星划过夜空，如此闪耀

And I'm trying not to think what I'm leaving now

我克制自己不去想正在失去什么

No deceiving now, it's time you let me know

别骗我，你该告诉我真相了

Let me know

让我明白

When the lights go out and we open our eyes

淬炼新生

out there in the silence

在沉默中

I'll be gone, I'll be gone.

我会离开，离开

Let the sun fade out and another one rise

就让太阳慢慢黯淡，一切重来

Climbing through tomorrow,

开始新的一天

I'll be gone, I'll be gone.

我会改变，改变

This air between us is getting thinner now

我们之间正越走越远，形同陌路

into winter now, bitter sweet

进入残酷的严冬，苦涩的甜蜜

across that horizon this sun is setting down

太阳逐渐落下

You're forgetting now

你忘却了我们的过去

it's time you let me go, let me go

你让我走，让我走

When the lights go out and we open our eyes,

淬炼新生

out there in the silence

一切恢复安静

I'll be gone, I'll be gone

在寂静中

Let the sun fade out and another one rise

让太阳消失，另一个崛起

Climbing through tomorrow

另一个太阳明天会升起

I'll be gone, I'll be gone

.我会消失

And tell them I couldn't help myself

告诉他们我无法自己完成一切

And tell them I was alone

告诉他们我孑孓一身

Oh, tell me I am the only one

告诉我，我是独一无二的

and there's nothing left to stop me

没有东西能够阻挡我

When the lights go out and we open our eyes

淬炼新生

out there in the silence

在寂静中

I'll be gone, I'll be gone

我会改变

Let the sun fade out and another one rise

让太阳消失，另一个崛起

Climbing through tomorrow

一日复一日

I'll be gone, I'll be gone.

我只能离开

I'll be gone

我只能离开

《I’ll be gone》的主歌表达了对现实生活无情残酷的愤怒和对即将逝去的生命的惋惜与伤感，副歌激烈地抒发了对生命之火重新燃起的希望之情。但是在结尾，查斯特·贝宁顿的那一声充满痛苦与无奈的“我将离去”，道出了“一切都将逝去”的感伤。歌曲融入了愤怒、冷漠、无奈、伤心等多种情感，让听众仿佛置身于林肯公园火热的情感海洋中。
