What amounts to a dream anymore? 怎样才算是梦想了吗？

Where'd it go, 哪儿也去了，

All that precious time? 所有这些宝贵的时间？

Did we even try to stem the tide? 难道我们甚至试图扭转局面？

   

Why should we waste it on 我们为什么要浪费在

Buying into the same old lies? 购买到同样的老谎言？

The longer we wait around 我们等着的时间越长

The faster the years go by 越快岁月的流逝

   

It's not too late 这还不算太晚

To feel a little more alive 觉得有点更有活力

Before we start to vaporize 在我们开始之前蒸发

So if you want to follow me you should know 所以，如果你想跟着我，你应该知道
