Perfect Way To Die

Simple walk to the corner store
照常无奇的一天 行走于旧迹
Momma never thought she would be getting a call from the coroner
那位母亲不曾料到
Said her son's been gunned down, been gunned down
她的孩子已被枪杀
"Can you come now?"
“你能赶过来吗”
Tears in her eyes, "Can you calm down?
她已泪眼湿透 那边说着“冷静点”
Please, ma'am, can you calm down?"
“你不能失控啊”
But it rained fire in the city that day
They say
那日天如火硝
A river of blood in the streets
人们传言道
No love in the streets
血河染红了整条街
And then came silence in the city that day
没有丝毫爱的温意
They say
随后 冷清充斥了这个城市
Just another one gone
他们说啊
And they tell her, "Move on"
生死离别乃常事
And she's stuck there singing
让她“往前看吧”
Baby, don't you close your eyes
她一动不动 放声歌唱道
This could be our final time
And you know I'm horrible at saying goodbye
我的宝贝 你倒是睁眼啊
And I think of all you could've done
让我见你最后一面
At least you'll stay forever young
你也知道我不舍告别啊
I guess you've picked the perfect way to die
脑子里都是你尚未完成的事
Ooh, I guess you picked the perfect way to die
唉 你至少能免受老去的痛
New job, new city, new her
你概是选择了最舒适的解脱
Bright eyes, you would've been proud if you knew her
如此年轻便消逝于世 你概是得多于失的
Flashing lights in the mirror, pull over, pull over
A couple nights in detention then it's over
她现已重获新生 来到另一个城市重寻归所
Her whole life's over
但凡是知道她的遭遇 都会为她欣喜
They came marching in the city that day
眼前灯亮若隐若现
They say
有时于深夜殇存 但希望还是破灭了
Carrying signs in the streets
她的人生惨淡告终
Crying eyes in the street
But they heard nothing from the city that day
游行毅然爆发
They say
人们说啊
Just another one gone
举着标语行走在街头
And the city moves on
千万人湿透双眼
We're stuck here singing
但政府没有任何响应
Baby, don't you close your eyes
大家都说
'Cause this could be our final time
又一个英雄倒下了
And you know I'm horrible at saying goodbye
不能再失去更多人
And I think of all you could've done
我们于此呼喊
At least you'll stay forever young
I guess you've picked the perfect way to die
别屈服啊亲爱的
Oh, I guess you picked the perfect way to die
让我们再见一次
Another dream lost
我实在不愿再经历离别
Another king and queen lost
你本是前途无量啊
Another broken promise they refuse to make right
唉 你至少能免受老去的痛
Oh, another night to live in fear
你概是选择了最舒适的解脱
Oh, another night that you're not here
如此年轻便消逝于世 你概是得多于失的
Another reason to get out there and fight
But I say
又一次梦想破灭
Baby, don't you close your eyes
当政者再次失信
'Cause this could be our final time
为何总是食言 不愿公事公办
And you know I'm horrible at saying goodbye
今夜又将担惊受怕
And I think of all you could've done
今夜又将失去另一个他
At least you'll stay forever young
我们还将为此挣扎奋战
I guess you've picked the perfect way to die
Ooh, I guess you picked the perfect way to die
