The Long Way Around - Jackson Browne (杰克逊·布朗)
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
I don't know what to say about these days
不知该如何评说这时代
I'm seeing people changing in the strangest ways
目睹人们以最怪异的方式蜕变
Even in the richer neighborhoods
即便在富庶的街区
People don't know when they got it good
人们仍不懂知足常乐
They got the envy and they got it bad
妒火中烧 执念深种
When I was a kid everything I did was trying to be free
年少时每个举动都渴求自由
Running up and down tinsel town with the fire inside of me
在浮华街巷奔跑 心中燃着烈焰
My planets all in retrograde the best of all my plans got made
命星逆行 最完美的计划却悄然成形
I made my breaks and some mistakes
我曾把握机遇 也曾犯下过错
Just not the ones people think I made
却非世人揣测的那些因果
I'm a long way gone down this wild road I'm on
在这狂野路途我已跋涉甚远
It's gonna take me where I'm bound
它将带我抵达命定彼岸
It's a long way around
这是段漫长的迂回辗转
It's a little hard keeping track of what's gone wrong
纷乱世道难辨是非曲直
The covenant unravels and the news just rolls along
旧约崩解 新闻循环不止
I can feel my memory letting go some two or three disasters ago
记忆正褪去两三场灾变的痕迹
It's hard to say what did more ill
难以说清哪个更致命
Citizens United or the Gulf Oil Spill
是联合公民案还是墨西哥湾漏油事件
I'm a long way gone down this wild road I'm on
在这狂野路途我已跋涉甚远
It's gonna take me where I'm bound
它将带我抵达命定彼岸
It's a long way around
这是段漫长的迂回辗转
It's never been that hard to buy a gun
购枪从未如此简单
Now they'll sell a Glock 19 to just about anyone
如今格洛克19几乎唾手可得
The seeds of tragedy are there and
悲剧的种子早已埋下
What we feel we have the right to bear
我们自认有权承受这一切
And watch our children come to harm
却目睹孩子们遭受伤害
There in the safety of our arms
在我们自以为安全的怀抱中
We all disagree about
我们各执己见
The passions burn heart goes out
激情燃烧 心已冷却
We're a long way gone
我们早已迷失方向
Down this wild road we're on
在这条狂野的道路上渐行渐远
It's going to take us where we're bound
它将带我们前往命中注定的远方
It's just the long way around
不过是条曲折漫长的路途
