歌词
Don't you dare speak for someone you don't know
你敢和陌生人搭讪吗
They'll feel it in the back of their throat
那些家伙的喉咙深处藏着秘密
We know I can't construct a poem
我虽然是个粗人
'Cause words like girls get bored and run
写的诗也常常把姑娘吓跑
C'est la vie, I say "I've got so many better things"
但没办法 我只能说她们不懂我
I've got nothing, you should see me
你别看我两手空空
I smoke myself to sleep
我会表演一秒入梦
And blame postmodern things I can't relate
唾骂那些后现代主义的臭鱼烂虾
Like summer camp and coastal states
昏昏欲睡的夏令营和灯红酒绿的沿海州
Like alcohol and coffee beans
喝不完的威士忌和大把的咖啡豆
Dance floors and magazines
癫狂的舞池和堆积的成人杂志
I think it's safe to say I've only got myself to blame
如人饮水 冷暖自知
But boys in swooping haircuts are bringing me down
除了那些年轻的飞机头男孩
Taking pictures of themselves
瞧 他们正在疯狂合影
(..are you doing tonight..)
And so I walk the web in search of love
我曾四处寻找暧昧
But always seem to end up stuck
但总是不了了之
I'm finding flaws in everyone
也许是我太挑剔
I've reached the point where all I want
但我最终还是遇见她了
Is to sleep around in hopes that I will catch back up
每天带着不切实际的希望入睡
We are parallel lines we're running in circles
我和她就像两条不停奔跑的平行线
We're never meant to cross
永远也不会相交
I'm at a loss, and you are my tangerine
我被她迷得神魂颠倒 我的橘子女孩
My ********, my trampoline
我的小野猫 我的蹦蹦床
Now all I get are wincing cheeks
我的脸颊仿佛失去了知觉
And dog problems, I signed a lease
我心甘情愿当她的舔狗
Thinking my heart belonged at 93rd and park
仍记得她住在93号公园
Instead I broke a girl's heart
好吧 那时我还刚甩了一个女孩
And flew back to Phoenix to finish the year as it started
回凤凰城待了一年
Can you hear me?
嘿 你听得见吗?
Are you listening?
嘿 你在听吗?
This is the sound of my heart breaking
这是我心碎的声音
And I hope it's entertaining
我希望只是在开玩笑
'Cause for me it's a *****
橘子女孩戏耍了我
Was it worth it?
这一切值得吗?
When you slept with him?
你和他上过床吗?
Did you get it all out of your system?
你已经释怀了吗?
I am a man
我是个奇怪的男人
Holding it all
我难以忘记
I couldn't breath
我无法呼吸
Coming across
制造另一次邂逅吗
I didn't know
我不知道
I couldn't give up
我放不下
(..Oh oh oh..)
我想拼出她的名字
B is for believing you'd always be here for me B
是相信
E is for everything, even when we see it though E
是等待
C, c is for seeing through you, you are a fake, which brings me to C
是错觉
A, because, because, you always run away A
是失去
I never finish phrases, I misspell
我拼不下去了 也许她根本没告诉我真名
Open arms are prison cells
张开双臂却只能抱到空气
When I said, "I hate what I've become" “
我讨厌现在的自己”
I lied, I hated who I was
对不起我撒谎了 我真的很讨厌自己
So when you start to wonder about the pain in my throat
所以当你想搞清楚什么是喉咙深处的秘密时
Well don't you ever, no never, ever,
我劝你别再随便搭讪陌生人了
Speak for someone you don't know.
回头抱抱那些爱你的家伙吧
