Oh I was on my way to doing something else, you prop my eyelids up with toothpick thoughts 哦，我对我的方式做别的事情，你托我的眼皮了牙签的想法

   

Thursday, shuffling feet on your cemetery lawn 周四，洗牌的脚在你的草坪墓园

Weeping about your skin, in your sleep you just slid it off 哭泣着你的皮肤，你的睡眠，你只需滑动它关闭

Just so you could get dressed up in this 只要你能穿好衣服在这

Your nightgown of oak, your ribbons of roots 你的睡衣橡木，你的根丝带

Is there nothing you want from me now, no help I could give but to lower you down? 有没有什么你现在想从我这里，没有帮助我可以给，但降低你失望？

   

Oh all your friends are standing by waving greedy goodbyes 哦，你所有的朋友都站在挥手告别贪婪

I've got nothing now that I want to say 我有什么，现在我想说

You wouldn't talk back anyway 你不会顶嘴呢

   

And you know we won't do what you wanted us to 你知道，我们不会做你希望我们

There ain't nothing here to celebrate 有没有什么在这里庆祝

We're all worse off without you 我们的情况变糟，没有你

   

At that feast in some two star hotel 在这节日中一些两星级酒店

I'm circling the room and mingling half stunned 我弄了个房间，交融惊呆了一半

Nauseous with the truth of it all 恶心了这一切的真相

Knowing here the whole time this won't really fade 知道这里的全部时间，这不会真的消失

Now it just stays in out spines 现在，它只是停留在了刺

   

Oh but we're all shaking hands offering condolences 哦，但我们都握手祭慰问

Stories of some envied youth, less life threatening more moot 有些羡慕的青春故事，少危及生命更无实际意义

   

And our eyes they all drown, our tongues get wrung out 而我们的眼睛都淹没，我们的舌头得到拧干

There ain't nothing here for us to taste that ain't bitter already 有没有什么这里我们品尝，是不是已经苦

   

They warn us our reservation is up, it just seems so cruel 他们警告我们我们预订了，它只是似乎很残忍

Like the parasites that eat your thoughts your plot gets covered up 这样吃你的想法寄生虫的阴谋被掩盖

By someone who never even knew you 被人谁从不知道你

   

Oh then the curtain comes down, the crowd it thins out 哦，那么大幕徐徐落下，人群中就变薄了

There's no reason now for us to stay 没有理由现在我们留

And we all hurry home because it won't be long till we're in your place 大家都急着回家，因为它不会很长，直到我们在你的地方
