歌词
Well grey clouds wrapped round the town like elastic
乌云笼罩像一个大大的橡皮圈包裹着小镇
Cars stood like toys made of Taiwanese plastic
街上的汽车像是由台湾塑料制成的玩具
The boy laughed at the spastic dancing around in the rain
男孩大笑着在雨中狂魔乱舞的人群
While laundrettes cleaned clothes high heals rub toes
当干洗店洗着衣服，高跟鞋磨着脚趾
Puddles splashed huddles of bus stop crows
路旁的水坑溅到公交车站乌压压的人们身上
Dressed in their suits and their boots well they all look the same
穿上了制服与皮靴大家长得都一样没有区别
I took myself down to the cafe to find all the boys lost in books and crackling vinyl
我一人来到咖啡馆，看到所有的男孩都沉浸在书中，还有噼噼啪啪的翻书声
And carved out a poem above the urinal that read
小便池上刻着一首诗
Don’t you cry for the lost
别为失去的哭泣
Smile for the living
为剩下的微笑
Get what you need and give what you’re given
给予你的到的，才会得到你需要的
Life’s for the living so live it
活着就好好的享受生活
Or you’re better off dead
要么你还不如去死
While the evening pulled the moon out of it’s packet
夜晚把月亮掏出它的兜子
Stars shone like buttons on an old man’s jacket
星星像一个老绅士衬衫上闪亮的扣子
We needed a nail but we tacked it ’til it fell of the wall
我们需要指甲但是当我从墙上摔下了才想着用它
While pigeon’s pecked trains sparks flew like planes
虽然鸽子的喙很小，但是却像飞机一样闪耀
The rain showed the rainbows in the oil stains
雨也会让油污露出彩虹的微笑
And we all had new iPhones but no one had no one to call
我们都有了新手机，但是没有人打电话
And I stumbled down to the stomach of the town
我困在了市中心
Where the widow takes memories to slowly drown
街灯恍惚让记忆如水般缓缓流淌
With a hand to the sky and a mist in her eye she said
她说她将一只手伸向天空眼里迷雾蒙蒙
Don’t you cry for the lost
别为失去的哭泣
Smile for the living
为剩下的微笑
Get what you need and give what you’re given
给予你的到的，才会得到你需要的
Life’s for the living so live it
活着就好好的享受生活
Or you’re better off dead
要么你还不如去死
Well I’m sick of this town this blind man’s forage
我厌恶这个城市，这些盲目的掠夺者
They take your dreams down and stick them in storage
他们掠夺你的梦想将它囚禁起来
You can have them back son when you’ve paid off your mortgage and loans
当你还清了房租与贷款的时候你才配拥有它
Oh hell with this place I’ll go it my own way
哦这是个什么鬼地方，我要走我自己的路
I’ll stick out my thumb and I trudge down the highway
我会伸出拇指和跋涉在高速公路上
Someday someone must be going my way home
有一天一个人一定要回到自己的家
Till then I’ll make my bed from a disused car
直到他们用废弃的车给我搭了一个床
With a mattress of leaves and a blanket of stars
随着缓缓飘零的叶子还有漫天的星辰
And I’ll stitch the words into my heart with a needle and thread
我一针一线将这些话缝进我的心里
Don’t you cry for the lost
别为失去的哭泣
Smile for the living
为剩下的微笑
Get what you need and give what you’re given
给予你的到的，才会得到你需要的
You know life’s for the living so live it
活着就好好的享受生活
Or you’re better off dead
要么你还不如去死
Don’t you cry for the lost
别为失去的哭泣
Smile for the living
为剩下的微笑
Get what you need and give what you’re given
给予你的到的，才会得到你需要的
Life’s for the living so live it
活着就好好的享受生活
Or you’re better off dead
要么你还不如去死
