歌词
I had a friend named Victor
我有个朋友叫Victor
The two of us used to hang every single day
我们两个曾经形影不离
And it seemed like overnight that his whole life just changed
似乎一夜之间他的生活突然翻篇
I know when his mom and dad broke up
我知道他爸妈刚离婚
It didnt make sense but I know that his dad was a drunk
这好像难以理解但他爸的确是个酒鬼
And he gambled away the rent
赌博把家里的钱输个精光
Pretty soon vic was seein red
很快Victor萎靡不振
Pissed off but instead
愤恨不满
He drank every night til he passed out
他每天晚上疯了一样灌酒直到昏睡过去
Then he’d do it all again
第二天再来一次
The whole time smiling on the outside to cover the pain
他一直试图用脸上的微笑来掩饰难以忍受的折磨
But on the inside all he was tryin to do was get away
内心里他只想摆脱这一切
挣扎，摆脱
Dying to get away
让昨日的痛苦淌过坍塌的废墟
Let the pain of yesterday go slipping through the cracks
有趣，生活突然变色
褪为死一般的灰暗
Funny how things change color
你以为一切都挺好
Then fade to another shade
但看看毫无生机的未来吧
When you had it made it was all good
本来都很美好都很幸福
But now look just another day
现在快乐的回忆都被抹杀
It was so fresh it was so clean
123，光芒消散
Now its all gone
到底找哪条路逃离
1, 2, 3, lights out
失控的生活堕入深渊
Which way to turn
独自坐在这大房子里
Can't get a grip
明天会更糟糕，你咒骂着上天
All alone in a big white house
直到你大脑崩溃，痛苦渗入骨髓
Everyday gets worse and you just curse
她离你而去你早应该预料到的
'til your head bursts and it hurts so bad
没有家没有孩子，所有人都唾弃你，包括你自己
She left like yourself should have thought of that one first
现在你想逃，却无能为力因为过去又一次闪现
No family, no kids, can’t accept what you did
划过昨日的废墟
Now you wanna runaway but you can't cuz the past comes back again
再干一瓶酒
半死不活地入睡
Slippin through the cracks
欠债怎么办
Sip a little jack
为什么每一分钱都是赌博的恶果
Go to bed half dead
怎么才能了结
What about rent
上帝啊，我们已经一无所有
Why does every cent gotta be a bet
我妈想办法找工作
Whens it gonna end
还债，停止漂泊，我们苟延残喘，怎么摆脱生活这个大问题
Oh my god, we dont got a penny left
我爸想结束无尽的痛苦
My mom’s gotta find a way to get a job
在他的脑海里还能想象一丝未来的希望
Outta debt, outta dodge, outta breath, outta this big problem
但是药物已经让他荒废
My pops wanna get away from the pain
受够了，他祈祷着上帝能快点带他离开
In a better place in his brain
我拼命地摇动他的身体，醒来呀你个臭婊子养的怂包！
But the medication he takes makes him wasted
他挣扎，摆脱
So sick if hes gonna think the good lord would come take him
让昨日的痛苦淌过坍塌的废墟
Im shakin him wake up you son of a bitch
试图躲藏，看着所有的回忆褪色
摆脱现实的堕落与崩溃
He’s dying to get away
他以死来摆脱
Let the pain of yesterday go slipping through the cracks
让过去的痛苦消失在死寂之中
Hiding himself away watching all the memories fade
无处躲藏，无助地望着所有的回忆支离破碎
Away From red to black
摆脱现实的堕落与崩溃
终
He’s dying to get away
Let the pain of yesterday go slipping through the cracks
Hiding himself away watching all the memories fade
Away From red to black
(Slipping through the Cracks)
