Normal American Kids

回憶被喚起，想起很久以前的自己
Remind myself, myself long ago
那是在我能開車前，在我能投票前
'Fore I could drive, 'fore I could vote
那時候的我對一切都像個憤青
All the time holding a grudge
那是在我懂得人們會輕易死去前
'Fore I knew people could die just because
而死亡只需標槍裡的一支箭，或是趕一趟公車
Shaft in a sling, head for the bus
我知道我曾喜歡的東西
I knew what I liked was not very much
在那時候並不流行，也被管得很緊
High at the time, tight to the grip
總是對那些正常的美國孩子感到害怕
Always afraid of those normal American kids
噢，我所有的靈氣就像從傷口中流走
Oh, all of my spirit leaked like a cut
我知道我需要的東西永遠不會足夠
I knew what I needed would never be enough
而過高的代價使我無法改變我的賭注
I was too high to change my bid
總是害怕會成為一個正常的美國孩子
Always afraid to be a normal american kid
總是厭惡普通又正常的美國式空虛夏天
Always hating normal normal american empty summer days
閃電像一種疼痛在空中炸開裂痕
Lightning crazed and cracked like an ache
在花園小屋後高高在上
High behind the garden shed
我將自己扮成一個正常的美國孩子
Painting myself as a normal American kid
我總是討厭這麼做
I always hated it
嗨得就像能想像的嗨那麼嗨
High as high as high can loom
躲在臥室裡的被子底下
Under the sheets in my bedroom
我就在這想怎麼嗨就怎麼嗨
I was high as high can get
總是對那些正常的美國孩子感到害怕
Always afraid of those normal American kids
噢，呼葉子啊別的什麼藥啦，還有鋪平了的麵包車啦
Oh, bongs and jams, and carpeted vans
討厭所有那些我不理解的
Hate everything I don' t understand
要控制住那些可真不容易
Hard times tightening the lid
我一定要離那些正常的美國孩子遠點
I had to get away from those normal American kids
一直討厭那些正常的美國孩子
Always hated those normal American kids
一直討厭那些正常的美國孩子
Always hated those normal American kids
