older (live acoustic)
Woke up in the same clothes I wore yesterday
穿著昨日的衣服醒來
My head is pounding now, I lost my phone again
頭暈目眩,又把手機給弄丟了
And I found a gray hair and I thought about
發現一絲白髮的我突然想到
When my dad was my age, he was married by now
父親在我這個年紀的時候就已經結婚了
And sometimes I wonder how things would turn out

If I stayed in school, never left my home town

I don't do the things I'm supposed to
我會逃避本該完成的任務
Overthinking, underfocused
想得太多會讓我精神恍惚
Emotional roller coaster
情緒也如過山車般大起大落
Keep it all on my shoulders
我把一切都攬到自己身上扛著
Hoping no one will notice
期許沒有人會發現
I'm no good at getting older
成熟其實不是我的性格
Last year I almost threw in the towel
去年我差點就向生活低頭認輸了
I was tired of suits telling me what to write about
厭倦了由西裝革履譜寫的人生
Yeah, but then I remembered the girl from Rhode Island
可我又回憶起來自羅德島的那位姑娘
Who said that our music saved her life, and
她曾說音樂使她重振旗鼓
I'm not a saint but I still talk to Jesus
吾等並非賢聖,卻也向耶穌祈禱
I hope he knows that I really mean it
我希望上帝知道我是認真的
I don't do the things I'm supposed to
我會逃避本該完成的任務
Overthinking, underfocused
想得太多會讓我精神恍惚
Emotional roller coaster
情緒也如過山車般大起大落
Keep it all on my shoulders
我把一切都攬到自己身上扛著
Hoping no one will notice
期許沒有人會發現
I'm no good at getting older
成熟其實不是我的性格
I called my dad one night when I was a wreck
有次夜晚,徹底崩潰的我撥號給了父親
He said, 'At your age, I was a mess'
他安慰道,”我在你這個年紀的時候也是一團亂麻“
So don't let it all weigh down on your shoulders
所以,別把一切都攬到自己身上扛著
Things will work out the way they're ssupposed to
船到橋頭自然直
It's just part of getting older
受挫只是成長的一部分罷了
