For Mayor in Splitsville - La Dispute

For Mayor In Splitsville - La Dispute
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Funny what you think of after a collapse
崩塌后的思绪总是如此讽刺
While lying in the dirt the first thing
当深陷泥泞时 最先浮现的
That comes back is never quite what you'd have guessed
永远不是你以为会记起的模样
And if you could have
若你当时能够
You probably would've said
或许你会选择先确认
You'd check if all your limbs were intact still and
四肢是否还完好无损
Then try to get out
然后挣扎着逃离
We played house with the neighbors in their basement
我们曾和邻居孩子在地下室玩过家家
Sister made me husband she was older so I did her bidding
姐姐让我扮丈夫 她年长便对她言听计从
I remember once their dad came in said
记得有次她父亲进来对我们说
You think this is bad
你们以为这很糟糕
You don't know the half
殊不知更糟的还在后头
And he laughed
说罢他便大笑
It's funny what things come back
回忆总以最意外的方式浮现
The first things you see
最先想起的总是
How he sort of smiled like
他那意味深长的微笑
It's only a joke but he was lying
看似玩笑话 他却满口谎言
There was something else inside of his eyes
眼底深处藏着难言秘密
All those secrets people tell to little children
大人对孩子说的那些所谓秘密
Are warnings that they give them
其实都是血泪的警示
Like Look I'm unhappy
就像说着 看啊我多不快乐
Please don't make the same mistake as me
求你别重蹈我的覆辙
Why are those old worn out jokes on married life
为何婚宴祝酒时仍在重复
Told at toasts at receptions still
那些老掉牙的婚姻笑话
How does it never occur how often couples
为何人们总意识不到 多少爱侣
Get burned and end uncertain in Splitsville
在分崩离析中焚尽 最终沦为陌路
Funny what you think of in the wreckage
废墟里浮现的念头多么讽刺
Lying there in the dirt and the dust and the glass
躺在尘土碎玻璃中的我忽然想起
How you're suddenly somewhere in the desert
恍惚间置身荒漠深夜
In the nighttime
圣诞将至的时节
And it's getting close to Christmas
她带着电影旁白般的嗓音
And then her and that movie voice
突然浮现眼前
She uses when she reads
她读书时总戴着那副眼镜
Welcome to the Land of Enchantment
欢迎来到迷醉之境的标牌
From a highway sign
在公路旁静静伫立
And it's late so you take the next exit
夜深了于是你驶向下个出口
When that trip ended
当旅程戛然而止
We came back the rent was due I was jobless
我们归来时房租到期而我失业
I guess in retrospect I should've sensed decay
如今回想早该察觉腐朽痕迹
Then that day how you said
直到那天 你轻声说出
I just don't know and I promised
我茫然无措 曾许下承诺
We'd rearrange things to fix the mess I'd made here
要重新整理 修补我造成的残局
But I guess in the end we just moved furniture around
但最终我们只是挪动了家具位置
But I guess in the end we just moved furniture around
但最终我们只是挪动了家具位置
But I guess in the end we just moved furniture around
但最终我们只是挪动了家具位置
But I guess in the end it sort of feels like every day
但最终感觉每一天都如此相似
It's harder to stay happy where you are
在原地保持快乐越来越难
There are all these ways to look through the fence
围栏外有无数种观望的方式
Into your neighbor's yard
踏入邻居家后院
Why even risk it It's safer to stay distant
何必冒险靠近 保持距离才最安稳
When it's so hard now to just be content
如今连知足都如此艰难
Because there's always something else
因世事总难尽如人意
Now I'm proposing my own toast
此刻我为自己举杯
Composing my own joke for those married men
为那些已婚者编着苦涩笑话
Maybe I'm miserable
或许我本就活得狼狈
I'd rather run for mayor in Splitsville
我宁愿在分离之城竞选市长
Than suffer your jokes again
也不愿再忍受你的玩笑
