Grief rides quietly on the passenger side 悲痛悄悄地骑在乘客侧

Unwanted company on a long, long drive 不需要的公司很长很长的驱动器上

It turns down the quiet songs and turns up the din 原来下降了安静的歌曲和轮番上涨的喧嚣

It goes where you go, it’s been where you’ve been 它去你走到哪里，它一直在那里你去过

   

And pushing your empty cart mile after mile 并推公里后你的车空英里

Leaves you weeping in the wilderness 让你在旷野哭泣

Of the supermarket aisle 超市过道

And in the late night kitchen light it sits in a chair 而在深夜厨房的灯就坐在椅子上

Watching you pretend that it’s not really there 看着你假装它是不是真的存在

   

But it is, so it is and you ask 但它，因此它是与你问

Are you predator or friend 您捕食或朋友

The future or the past? 未来或过去？

   

It hands you your overcoat and opens the door 它给了你你的外套，打开门

You are learning the world again just as before 你又学到了世界，就像之前

But the first time was childhood 但是，第一次是童年

And now you are grown 现在你长大

Broken wide open, cut to the bone 打破大开，切到骨头

   

And all that you used to know is of no use at all 而且，你用了就知道一切都没有用在所有

The same eyes you’ve always had have you walking into walls 同样的，你的眼睛我的心一直有你走进围墙

And the same heart can’t understand 而同样的心脏无法理解

Why it’s so hard to feel 为什么它是如此难以感受到

What used to be true 曾经被认为是真实的

What’s now so unreal 什么是现在这么不真实

   

But it is, so it is and you say 但它，因此它是与你说

I wish I were the wind so that I could blow away 我希望我是风，这样我可以吹走

   

Grief sits silently on the edge of your bed 悲伤静静地坐在你的床边

It’s closing your eyes, it’s stroking your head 它闭上你的眼睛，它的抚摸着你的头

The dear old companion is taking up air 亲爱的老同伴走了空气

Watching you pretend that it’s not really there 看着你假装它是不是真的存在
