歌词
I see you at the liquor store
我看见你走进一家酒馆
Leavin' with the cheapest can of beer on the shelf
买了货架上最便宜的一罐啤酒
You ain't livin' on the street, but you barely making rent
你虽不至于流落街头 但也只能勉强交得起房租
And I relate because I'm strugglin' myself
我与你感同身受 因为我也在生活中拼死挣扎
I see you smile at the clerk, while you fumble through your purse
我看到你向商店收银员尬笑 手在空口袋里不停四处摸索
I just wish I had a little more to help
我多么希望我能够帮上你忙
I imagine where you livin', how you feelin', what you love
我苦命思索 你身居何处 你心中所想 你心中所爱
And who you'll be if you can make it out your hell
如果你能走出这片人间炼狱又会成为谁(有何成就)
I see you at the bus stop, lookin' at the sidewalk
我看见你静立在公交站台之上,看着街道上川流不息的人来人往
Smokin' half a cigarette, waitin' for a ride
嘴上衔着的香烟燃了一半 静待着公交入站
Kinda limp when you walk, and look away when you talk
脚下的步伐有些许蹒跚 说话时眼神四处躲闪
You're ashamed, I can see it in your eyes
我能从你的双眼里看出你为此而羞愧
Probably got a Nascar shirt, and a car that you love
或许 你曾有过一件纳斯卡短袖以及一台你所心爱的赛车 (纳斯卡:美国纳斯卡车赛是一项在美国流行的汽车赛事)
But you're here 'cause you're too afraid to drive
可你恐惧再度手握方向盘 (所以)如今落魄至此
It's been almost 10 years since the day that you crashed
差不多快十年了 你还是无法忘却那个小男孩儿
Can't forget about the little boy's life
他死在了十年前的一场车祸
Everybody's got a story, if you look a little closer
每个人都拥有自己的一段尘封往事,只要你肯走近去了解
You can see it in the wrinkles in they face
你会发现它们全都铭刻在人们的脸上
They can hide it in the silence, they can bury it and fight it
他们对此闭口不谈 把其藏在沉默中 他们努力把过去埋藏在心底并与之战斗
But it comes out when their hair is turnin' gray
可终有一日 花甲之年的他们会被往事追上
You can feel it if you touch them, you can tell that they are troubled
心灵相触 你能够感受到他们的苦楚 你能看到他们正在诉苦
You can hear the story runnin' through they veins
你能听到这些故事在他们奔流不息的血脉中哭诉
We all travel different roads, and we put on different clothes
尽管我们历经的人生之路各有不同 我们身着的服饰风格各异
Underneath it all we're really all the same
可追及内心 其实我们是一家(类)人
We've all got problems and we all feel alone
我们都形影相吊 在生活边陲垂死挣扎 踽踽独行
We've all been haunted by the secrets we hold
我们都被自己羞于启齿的秘密所折磨心神
We could fill our coffins with the rocks they have thrown
我们可以选择躺进自己充斥着他人恶意与恶语的棺材里 因放弃而慢慢死去
Or we could build our castles with the sticks and the stones
或者 我们拼死到底 亲手筑造出为保护自己而奋抗到底的城堡
We've all got problems and we all feel alone
我们都形影相吊 在生活边陲垂死挣扎 踽踽独行

I see you sittin' on the front porch
我看见你静坐在屋前的门廊上
Playing with a radio, lookin' to the sky
仰望着灰蒙蒙的天 身旁一台收音机正在播放着
Probably livin' in that house all alone these days
或许 这阵子 你一直都是独自一人独守空房
Tryin' to find a better way to pass time
尝试找到更好的方法消磨漫漫时光
Got a wheelchair ramp leadin' up to the door
你在家门前修了一条轮椅坡道
I can see that you walk just fine
但我能看见其实你走路带风
Probably hate it 'cause it isn't gettin' used anymore
如今你可能开始讨厌这段坡道 是因为你挚爱着的妻子
And you only ever built it for your wife
再也不会如往常一样坐在轮椅上等你回家
Everywhere that I walk, see you on the sidewalk
现在无论我走到哪儿 都能看到你日渐消瘦的身影
Beggin' for a little loose change for some ****
你为了能有足够的钱买一些大MA 常常跪坐街边苦苦乞讨
Probably got a mama and a papa spendin' everything they make
你也有愿为你倾尽一切的父母
Tryna clean you up enough to take you home
他们竭力尝试 想要洗清你身上的罪恶 只为带你回家
Used to have a good job, used to get good grades
曾有过一份令人生羡的好工作 一张好文凭
Used to have big dreams, then you lost hope
也曾胸怀壮志有过一个又一个梦想 可突然有一天你坠入深渊
When your girlfriend died givin' birth to your son
那天 你的女友难产离世并为你诞下一名男婴
You're the father that he'll probably never know
而你可能却是他这辈子都无从得知的父亲
Everybody has a tale that their too afraid to tell
人人都有一段难以启齿的过往
You can see it in the cracks in their hands
你能看见这些都刻印在了他们饱经世故的手(掌)上
They can cover it with smiles if you walk a couple miles in their shoes
他们用微笑来掩饰哭泣 但如果你能设身处地地去思考
Then you'll know where they stand
那你就能理解他们是何感受
Everyone who really lived had to climb out of a ditch
每一个真正活过的人在走上人生正轨之前
They were in before they found the right path
都必定会历经艰辛 在腥臭的沟渠里四处碰壁
If you wanna know the truth about what we been goin' through
如果你真想了解我们经历过什么 又在经历什么·
Then try to put your phone away so you can ask
那就放下你手中的手机 大声问吧!
