歌词
Knew a boy once, when I was small
童年那会儿 认识了一个男孩
A tow-head blond, with eyes of salt
一头金发的他 两眼泛着苦意
He played the drum in the marching band
他是校乐队的鼓手
His parents cared more about the Bible
他的父母信奉圣经
Than being good to their own child
对自己的孩子却漠不关心
He wore long sleeves 'cause of his dad
他总穿长袖 将伤疤掩藏
时变境迁 我们失去了联系
And somehow, we fell out of touch
但愿他摆脱了那一切 过上了美好的生活
Hope he took his bad deal and made a royal flush
不知我们是否会重逢
Don't know if I'll see you again someday
我只希望你一切安好
But if you're out there, I hope that you're okay
中学那会儿 有个朋友很早就自力更生
还靠自己供养了几个兄弟
My middle school friend grew up alone
她的父母从不待见她所爱的人们
She raised her brothers on her own
她只想快点离家去念大学
Her parents hated who she loved
生在这么个没有爱的家庭
She couldn't wait to go to college
她很苦倦
She was tired 'cause she was brought
我好想让她知道 我很为她骄傲
Into a world where family was merely blood
能够不顾一切阻挠向前走
我们不常说话 但我想跟她说
Does she know how proud I am she was created
“我一直挂念着你 希望你一切安好”
With the courage to unlearn all of their hatred
写这些信 只为填全我心中的缺洞
We don't talk much but I just gotta say
没什么是永恒的 也没有绝对的好事
"I miss you, and I hope that you're okay"
天边的云会淡去
恶魔侵扰你的住所
Address the letters, to the holes in my butterfly wings
所有心门都没法紧闭
Nothing's forever, nothing is as good as it seems
我想让你知道
And when the clouds are ironed out
你能如此坚强我真的为你高兴
And the monsters creep into your house
希望你今天幸福快乐
And every door is hard to close
要记住我很爱你 我只愿你一切安好
Well, I hope you know how proud I am you were created
With the courage to unlearn all of their hatred
God, I hope that you're happier today
'Cause I love you, and I hope that you're okay
