歌词
One soft infested summer me and Terry became friends
那虫声微弱的夏天泰莉与我成为朋友
Trying in vain to breathe the fire we was born in
试着徒劳喘息两人降生其中的火焰
Catching rides to the outskirts tying faith between our teeth
我们搭车前往市郊，许下山盟海誓
Sleeping in that old abandoned beach house getting wasted in the heat
在荒弃的海岸小屋内，溽热中酩酊睡去
And hiding on the backstreets,
在后街上藏匿
Hiding on the backstreets
在后街上藏匿
With a love so hard and filled with defeat
满怀着艰辛与挫败的爱恋
Running for our lives at night on them backstreets
在夜的后街之上，将我们的生计谋取
Slow dancing in the dark on the beach at Stockton*s Wing
在夜色中翩翩起舞，斯托克顿市海岸上
Where desperate lovers park we sat with the last of the Duke Street Kings
公爵街最后的艺人与我们同在凄清的公园中
Huddled in our cars waiting for the bells that ring
我们拥挤着驾车，直到警铃响起
In the deep heart of the night to set us loose from everything
在长夜至深的尽头，我们万事皆休地放纵
To go running on the backstreets,
在后街上逃避
running on the backstreets
在后街上逃避
Terry We swore we*d live forever
泰莉，我们承诺过天长地久
On the backstreets we take it together
在这片后街上休戚与共
Endless juke joints and Valentino drag
无数的瓦伦蒂诺变装，无数的音乐酒馆
Where dancers scraped the tears up off the street dressed down in rags
舞者们抛洒热泪，长街破败不堪
Running into the darkness some hurt bad some really dying
他们纵身逃入黑暗， 各自死伤惨重
At night sometimes it seemed you could hear the whole damn city crying
在一些夜中你似乎能听到整座该死城市的哭喊
Blame it on the lies that killed us
归咎于积毁销骨的谎言
Blame it on the truth that ran us down
归咎于现实带来的失望
You can blame it all on me Terry it don*t matter to me now
你尽可归咎于我，泰莉，但那并不重要
When the breakdown hit at midnight there was nothing left to say
当崩溃在深夜中袭来更无复须多言
But I hated him and I hated you when you went away
但我恨他入骨，而我嫉恨你的离开
Laying here in the dark you*re like an angel on my chest
黑暗中静卧的你如同我胸膛上的天使
Just another tramp of hearts crying tears of faithlessness
这颗流浪心灵的热泪无非同样不贞
Remember all the movies, Terry, we*d go see
泰莉你是否仍记，我们看过的电影
Trying to learn how to walk like heroes we thought we had to be
试着效仿我们心目中的英雄们那样行事
And after all this time to find we*re just like all the rest
很久之后我们才发现自己与常人何异
Stranded in the park and forced to confess
踟蹰在荒园中，被迫向现实屈从
