歌词
你用掌握事情的多少来衡量财富
And you measure for wealth by the things you can hold
你用甜蜜时刻的多少权衡关于爱
And you measure for love by the sweet things you're told
你活在过去那个只有自己的梦里
And you live in the past of a dream that you're in
你的自私是罪戾
And your selfishness is your cardinal sin
你想被万人拥戴
And you want to be held with highest regard
他若爱你如此
If he likes you so much
他若努力至此
If he's trying so hard
你会努力隐藏你自己
And you're trying to conceal your ordinary way
只是一个微笑或者耸肩
With a smile or a shrug
或是一些被偷走的陈词滥调
Or some stolen cliche
可你不理解吗
But don't you understand
你不考虑吗
And don't you look about
我不是努力要从你身上得到什么
I'm trying to take nothing from you
为什么你会表现得如此讨厌我呢
So why should you act so put out for me
因为你和我有同样基础的旅行
你知道我了解你跌倒的次数
'Cause emotionally you're the same basic trip
所以别再尝试让我敬佩
And you know that I know of the times that you've slipped
你对我来说是道疤痕
So don't try to impress me
不用试着吸引我
You're just pins and paint
用你反对的方式
And don't try to charm me
不要尝试用你的打扮让我着迷
With things that you ain't
因为你怎么样穿对我来说没区别
And don't try to enchant me with your manner of dress
一报还一报 如我所说
'Cause a monkey in silk is a monkey no less
当我再也不见你时 衡量也就结束了
So measure for measure reflect on my said
难道你不理解吗
And when I won't see 'ya then measure it dead
你不考虑吗
'Cause don't you understand
我不是努力要从你身上得到什么
And don't you look about
为什么你会表现得如此讨厌我呢
I'm trying to take nothing from you
我坐着 游走在自我怀疑中
So why should you act so put out
And sit there and wonder in doubt for me
