Love Against the Grain - Foreverinmotion

Beneath a maple tree I watch the dying leaves let go
我伫立于一棵枫树之下 静静地凝视着枯叶随风飘零
And tumble down on the blacktop street
缓缓落在街道的柏油路上
Got some wild fire in these early morning eyes
惺忪的睡眼中燃起一团狂热的火焰
There's a shift in the wind and all the colors rush in
叶子在风中打转 缤纷的色彩齐涌眼帘
I let it fill my heart till I feel it split
我把这一切装在心中 直到它烟消云散
Hit the road in just these clothes and get away
我衣着单薄就踏上征程 离开了这里
Drop the everyday make some love against the grain
我要结束这场并不称心如意的恋爱
This nation is stitched up with Christmas lights
圣诞节的彩灯挂满了每个城市的大街小巷
Billboards dogmas and sex shop signs
公益广告牌以及成人用品店的招牌随处可见
Strung along these roads we drive
我们驱车行驶在城市的道路上
With haste when I need to slow down
当我需要减速的时候 我反而会急速行驶
And there's a hurt that dwells in each town I pass
伤痛在我经过的每一个小镇上肆意蔓延
Where a silent war broke the working man
当内心无声的斗争摧毁了工人们的热情
Left with little more than pink paper and rain
最后除了色情小报和屋外的滂沱大雨之外 一切都荡然无存
Just trying to find the way back to shore again
那就设法找到回头之路吧
But what gets me the most is that hint of love
但是我得到最多的就是爱的启示
That perseveres in the face of just giving up
处于崩溃的边缘 只需勇敢坚持下去
And that alone my friend is beauty you can't buy
我那位朋友就是美的化身啊 即便千金散尽也难换
The darkest places fill with the faintest light
最黑暗的地方总是会闪烁着无数微弱的光芒
So I pull off slow to the truck stop glow
所以我慢慢地爬上卡车 隔绝这些光芒
Kill the lights and just listen to the highway moan
熄灭所有灯光 且听高速公路上嗖嗖的风声
Like grandfather time singing blues to the western wind
就像祖父面对西部之风唱起伤感的布鲁斯
I fill up the tank and have a look around
我装好坦克装甲车 环顾四周
And I love what I see because it's all right now
我爱我眼前的一切 因为现在一切都恢复正常了
Go inside and give my money to a girl with soft brown eyes
我走进酒店包间 把钱甩给一个长着温柔的棕色眼睛的女孩
Though I hardly speak a word 'cause she froze me up inside
虽然全程我不发一言 只因她未能让我心潮澎湃 热血沸腾
And I curse the way I fall for everything
我诅咒我迷恋的万事万物
Walk back to the car and let my secrets sting
重回车上后 让内心的秘密尽情折磨我吧
When the butterflies become a swarm of bees
当世间所有的美丽事物都变得丑陋不堪
It's a delicate pose I taught myself to hold
我告诫我自己要保持一副儒雅的姿态
No chance for love without letting go of this free heart
只要我这颗自由之心得不到解放 我就再也没机会去追逐爱情
Unbound chasing selfish dreams
无拘无束地去追求自己的梦想
I'm just a lonely soldier on the road the greater things
我就像一个孤独的士兵 一生奔波在路上 只为追求更伟大的梦想
