I broke free on a Saturday morning. I put the pedal to the floor
周六早上我溜出家门，油门到底冲向大街
Headed north on Mills Avenue, and listened to the engine roar
沿着Mills大道一路向北，引擎在我耳边嘶吼
My broken house behind me, and good things ahead
把破败的家抛在身后，眼前正有美妙的事发生
A girl named Cathy wants a little of my time
有个叫Cathy的女孩，想要占用我一点时间
Six cylinders underneath the hood, crashing and kicking
六个汽缸在引擎盖下碰撞摇滚
Aha! Listen to the engine whine
啊哈! 引擎在我耳边嚎叫
I am gonna make it through this year, if it kills me
就算艰难苦恨，我会度过这一年
I am gonna make it through this year, if it kills me
就算艰难苦恨，我会度过这一年
I played video games in a drunken haze
我在酒醉的眩晕中打着游戏
I was seventeen years young
那是我十七岁的年华
Hurt my knuckles punching the machines
猛按机器使我关节生疼
The taste of scotch rich on my tongue
威士忌还在我舌尖灼烧
And then Cathy showed up, and we hung out Cathy
终于来了，我们开始约会
Trading swigs from a bottle, all bitter and clean
我们一起痛饮，所有苦涩与澄清
Locking eyes, holding hands
凝视双眸，握紧双手
Twin high-maintenance machines
像一对年久失修的机器在运转
I am gonna make it through this year, if it kills me
就算艰难苦恨，我会度过这一年
I am gonna make it through this year, if it kills me
就算艰难苦恨，我会度过这一年
I drove home in the California dusk
我在加州的暮色中向家驱驰
I could feel the alcohol inside of me hum
还能感觉到酒精在胃里嘟囔
Pictured the look on my stepfather's face
想想我继父会有什么脸色
Ready for the bad things to come
等着不好的事发生吧
I down shifted, as I pulled into the driveway
我换了档，靠向路边
The motor screaming out, stuck in second gear
马达尖叫着，卡在了二档
The scene ends badly, as you might imagine
那画面有点遭，你能够想象吧
In a cavalcade of anger and fear
在愤怒和恐惧的队伍里
There will be feasting and dancing
我会欢宴，起舞
In Jerusalem next year
在耶路撒冷，在下一年
I am gonna make it through this year, if it kills me
就算艰难苦恨，我会度过这一年
I am gonna make it through this year, if it kills me
就算艰难苦恨，我会度过这一年
