The Outskirts (Resurveyed)

歌词
I heard you have a pretty villa down south
我听说你在南部有栋漂亮的别墅
The paint never peels and the grass doesn't dry out
油漆永固,绿草不竭
Though it hasn't rained in months
虽然已经几个月没有下雨了
Not even once
一次也没有
At least it's something to worry about
至少这是件值得担心的事
Cause in the outskirts, comfort comes first
因为在郊区,舒适是第一位
It's as perfect as it's true
它既完美又真实
When there's an outburst, it could be worse
当有什么突发事件,情况也许会糟
Cause it could happen to you
因为它可能发生在你身上
But have you ever seen a view like this
但是你曾经在后廊
From a back porch?
见过这样一番景色吗?
But you would never leave
但是你永远不会离开
Cause what if it's not everything you want?
因为如果这不是你想要的一切呢?
If you couldn't run from everything you've known
如果你无法逃离你已经明了的一切
And it didn't makе you feel like your own
它没有让你感觉到自己的存在
I heard you are a part-timе patriot
我听说你是一个兼职爱国者
Lost your drive so you drive to compensate for it
失去了驱动力,所以你用其他方式弥补
Never get at the extend of the streets and dead ends
街道和死胡同从来没有扩建过
And you've memorized all of the names
你已经记住了所有它们的名字
Cause in the outskirts, comfort comes first
因为在郊区,舒适是第一位
It's as perfect as it's true
它既完美又真实
When there's an outburst, it could be worse
当有什么突发事件,情况也许会糟
Cause it could happen to you
因为它可能发生在你身上
But have you ever seen a view like this
但是你曾经在后廊
From a back porch?
见过这样一番景色吗?
But you would never leave
但是你永远不会离开
Cause what if it's not everything you want?
因为如果这不是你想要的一切呢?
If you couldn't run from everything you've known
如果你无法逃离你已经明了的一切
And it didn't make you feel like you own
它没有让你感觉到自己的存在
Why can't you leave?
你为什么不离开?
I remember fantasies you tell
我仍记得你向我讲述过的奇妙幻想
You're breathing on a glass of a hotel
像在一间玻璃房中呼吸
Looking at a city that's so big it can't be real
看着眼前的庞大城市,就像梦境一样
So you stay safe
所以你保持现状
And wash the bitter taste from your mouth
并将口中的苦涩洗去
You look up at the burnt orange sky and wonder why
你抬头看着烧灼的橙色天空,想知道为什么
You ever dreamt of getting out
你曾经梦想着离开
