歌词
I've been seeing lonely people in crowded rooms
人群攘攘的房间里,可见多少孤独的躯壳
Covering their old heartbreaks with new tattoos
陈旧破碎的心,藏匿在新刺的纹身之下
It's all about smoke screens and cigarettes
都不过是障眼法罢了,只有燃着的香烟明白我的愁苦
Looking through low lights at silhouettes
透过黯淡的霓虹,端详着喧嚣者的轮廓
But all I see is lonely people in crowded rooms
而我所见只是挤满房间的孤独躯壳
This city's gonna break my heart
这座城市将伤透我的心
This city's gonna love me then leave me alone
这座城市将眷恋我片刻,又将我狠心遗弃
This city's got me chasing stars
这座城市一直催使着我追逐遥不可及的星辰
It's been a couple months since I felt like I'm home
过去的几个月里,我已渐渐习惯了这份归属感
Am I getting closer to knowing where I belong?
可我又是否真正更深切地明了自己的归宿?
This city's gonna break my heart
这座城市将会背叛我的真心
She's always gonna break your heart, oh
就像她会一如既往地辜负你的真情
I remember mornings when my head didn't hurt
我还记得那些难得的早晨,头脑不再疼痛的那些早晨(在初至LA的奋斗时光里,Sam Fischer白日里拼命创作,晚上忙于与各个音乐人的社交应酬,每日都因睡眠不足、饮酒过量而头晕脑胀)
And I remember nights when art didn't feel like work
我还记得那些夜晚,创作的作品都失去了灵魂(此时的Sam Fischer陷入到了消极创作的瓶颈期,难以在音乐创作中找到快乐,更多的是一种为工作胁迫的压力)
She wakes up at noon and she's out 'til three
她在正午起床出门,直到凌晨三点归来(Sam Fischer的创作任务一般在中午启动,直至凌晨三点完成)
She leaves her perfume all over me
她香水的味道犹然缭绕在我身旁(当第二日起床时打量着还未忘记洗漱、犹穿着昨晚衣物的自己,自嘲、失落、坚持的盲目感便会一齐席卷而来)
But I remember mornings when my head didn't hurt
我还记得那些难得的早晨,头脑不再疼痛的那些早晨
This city's gonna break my heart
这座城市将伤透我的心
This city's gonna love me then leave me alone
这座城市将眷恋我片刻,又将我狠心遗弃
This city's got me chasing stars
这座城市一直诱惑着我追逐遥不可及的星辰
It's been a couple months since I felt like I'm home
过去的几个月里,我已渐渐习惯了这份归属感
Am I getting closer to knowing where I belong?
可我又是否真正更深切地明了自己的归宿?
This city's gonna break my heart
这座城市将伤透我的心
She's always gonna break your heart, oh
就像她会一如既往地辜负你的真情
She got a hold on me
她曾紧紧与我相拥
She got me wrapped round her finger
她曾让我牢牢握住她的手
She got a hold on me
她曾紧紧与我相拥
She got me wrapped round her finger, oh yeah
她曾让我牢牢握住她的手
This city's gonna break my heart
这座城市将伤透我的心
This city's gonna love me then leave me alone
这座城市将眷恋我片刻,又将我狠心遗弃
This city's got me chasing stars
这座城市一直诱惑着我追逐遥不可及的星辰
It's been a couple months since I felt like I'm home
过去的几个月里,我已渐渐习惯了这份归属感
Am I getting closer to knowing where I belong?
可我又是否真正更深切地明了自己的归宿?
This city's gonna break my heart
这座城市将伤透我的心
She's always gonna break your heart, oh(come on, come on)
就像她会一如既往地辜负你的真情
This city's gonna break my heart, hey(She's gonna break it)
就像她会一如既往地辜负你的真情(不出所料)
She's always gonna break your heart(She's gonna break it)
就像她会一如既往地辜负你的真情(一如既往)
