So long ago, I don't remember when 很久以前，我不记得

That's when they say I lost my only friend 当他们说我失去了我唯一的朋友，这是

Well they said she died easy of a broken heart disease 嗯，他们说她死了容易破碎的心脏疾病

As I listened through the cemetery trees 当我穿过墓地树木听

   

I seen the sun comin' up at the funeral at dawn 我已经看到太阳马上就要来了，在葬礼在黎明

The long broken arm of human law 长胳膊断人法

Now it always seemed such a waste 现在，它似乎总是这么浪费

She always had a pretty face 她一直有一个漂亮的脸蛋

So I wondered how she hung around this place 所以，我不知道她是怎么挂在这个地方

   

[Chorus:] [合唱： ]

Hey, come on try a little 嘿，别这样试了一下

Nothing is forever 没有什么是永恒

There's got to be something better than 我们有了的东西不是更好

In the middle 在中间

But me & Cinderella 但我与灰姑娘

We put it all together 我们把它放在一起

We can drive it home 我们可以开车回家这

With one headlight 一个大灯

   

She said it's cold 她说，它的冷

It feels like Independence Day 这感觉就像独立日

And I can't break away from this parade 我不能从这个游行打破

But there's got to be an opening 但一定是一个开放

Somewhere here in front of me 这里的某个地方在我面前

Through this maze of ugliness and greed 通过这个迷宫丑陋和贪婪

And I seen the sun up ahead 我看到太阳前方

At the county line bridge 在县行桥

Sayin' all there's good and nothingness is dead 言谈所有有良好的与虚无死

We'll run until she's out of breath 我们将运行，直到她的出了一口气

She ran until there's nothin' left 她跑了，直到有什么也没留下

She hit the end-it's just her window ledge 她打到最后，这只是她的窗台

   

[Chorus] [合唱]

   

Well this place is old 嗯，这地方是旧的

It feels just like a beat up truck 这感觉就像一个跳动卡车

I turn the engine, but the engine doesn't turn 我打开发动机，但发动机不转

Well it smells of cheap wine & cigarettes 那么它的气味的廉价酒和香烟

This place is always such a mess 这个地方总是这么乱

Sometimes I think I'd like to watch it burn 有时候，我想我会喜欢看它燃烧

I'm so alone, and I feel just like somebody else 我很孤独，我感觉就像别人

Man, I ain't changed, but I know I ain't the same 伙计，我是不是变了，但我知道我是不一样的

But somewhere here in between the city walls of dyin' dreams 但是快要枯萎的梦想城墙在这里介于两者之间

I think her death it must be killin' me 我觉得她的死，必须扼杀了我
