I'm pissed off at the number
我为自己的遇人不淑感到愤懑
Of people that I meet
讨厌眼前这些表里不一之辈
Who go to shake my hand
这些与我谈笑自如的家伙
With a viper up their sleeve
最擅长笑里藏刀的伎俩
They freeze me out all winter
把我关在门外,让我受尽地冻天寒
Burn me up all summer
将我推向烈日,使我受尽酷暑天干
Try to take my money
他们想法设法拿走我的血汗
When I'm desperate and depressed
在人万念俱灰的时候
Ain't it a mess
真的是心乱如麻一团糟
I've played for free and paid for
我曾作乐寻欢,也为此付出沉痛的代价
The miles on my truck
一路走来,磕磕绊绊
Got no sleep in motels
在汽车旅馆辗转难眠
Cause the worry keeps me up
焦虑充斥着内心
It almost drives me crazy
简直要把我压垮
Thinking about my baby
我唯一眷念的只有我所爱的那个人
And how he's gonna love me
他对我的爱必定至真至深
If I'm desperate and depressed
即使是在我狼狈不堪的时候
Can't get no rest
请让我原地歇歇吧
Momma never told me
妈妈从未告诉我
That things would be this way
事情将会以如此发展
Daddy tried to warn me
爸爸不断警告我
That there'd be hell to pay
那将会是地狱般的代价
If I can't find the money
如果我得不到钱
Then I can't buy the time
我将如何度过剩下的时光
I'm stuck here making
我被束缚在这无形之牢
Someone else's dime
成了别人牟利的棋子,赚钱的工具
We busked in sarasota
我们在萨拉索塔街演赚钱
I made twenty seven bucks
可还是杯水车薪,所得无几
I wept for richard manuel
我为理查德·曼纽尔的生平流泪
Thinking I might have his luck
是否我和他一样地不幸
You talked behind my back
你们在暗地里说我的闲话
But only stabbed me in the front
但只是在人前诋毁我
But don't think you can hurt me
可别以为这样就能伤到我
Cause I'm desperate and depressed
我早已万念俱灰,无所畏惧
Ain't it a mess
不过只是心烦意乱罢了
Please somebody tell me
有谁能告诉我
How to make it stop
要如何停止
This world feels like a roller coaster
这如同过山车般起起落落的世界
I just can't get off
我就是下不了车
Tried rehab and probation
尝试过戒毒和缓刑
Tried self medication
也尝试过自我药物治疗
But none of that can cure you
可你就是无法拯救自己
When you're desperate and depressed
当你万念俱灰,伤心欲绝的时候
Ain't it a mess
真的是心乱如麻一团糟啊
Momma never told me
妈妈从未告诉我
That things would be this way
事情将会如此发展
Daddy tried to warn me
爸爸不断警告我
That there'd be hell to pay
那将会是地狱般的代价
But if I can't find the money
如果我得不到钱
Then I can't buy the lie
那我便无法继续欺骗自己
Oh ten percent of nothing
噢,真的是一无所有
Ain't a dime
一无所有啊
So don't you try to sell me back what's mine
把本该属于我的快乐时光还给我
I'll be desperate and depressed until I die
直到我死的那一刻,我的心仍然是绝望的
