各位好，請教一下這首歌的歌詞
Live in the Sunshine (lyrics)
Whatever you do
Be sure you stay true to what you know is right
Some things seem fun
But when they are done
You begin to see the light
Sometimes doing good is hard
When no one seems to care
But there's always someone watching you
Your good deeds They are aware
Live in the sunshine
Not the darkest night
Life is better when you do
And your days will always be bright

第一節第四行，But when they are done是什麼意思呢？
這句歌詞對應影片第15秒，可看見左上背景中，有一個人拿個一根大菸要給另一個人，
但是對方拒絕了。
但我不太確定這個they are done是什麼意思，「他們被完成了（？）」
（下一句：然後你開始看見光亮）(？)
請教一下，謝謝。

網友 Matthew Wai說
https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dic...y/english/done
Scroll down to "adjective".
但我看那邊寫
If something is done, or you are done with it, it is finished, or you have
finished doing, using it, etc.
感覺和歌詞句意不合吧？我覺得這邊歌詞表達的是
「這些看起來有趣（但不好）的東西，被拒絕了之類的」
請教一下，謝謝！

1F：→ dunchee: 原來是空英(主辦人的基督教背景)，難怪這歌像是勸世歌 07/05 01:26
2F：→ dunchee: Some things seem fun -> "things"指的是壞事 07/05 01:26
3F：→ dunchee: ... they are done -> they=bad things/activities/... 07/05 01:26
4F：→ dunchee: But when bad things are done/over/finished/... 07/05 01:26
5F：→ dunchee: But when bad activites have ended(套用你給的字典link 07/05 01:26
6F：→ dunchee: adj, 1. 字義說明，再做些調整) 07/05 01:27
7F：→ dunchee: How are they done/over/...? 比如你自己主動拒絕(像那影 07/05 01:27
8F：→ dunchee: 片演的)也是方法之一 07/05 01:27
好的，感謝D大！
