I'm sure you will agree 我相信你会同意

Lily keeps the lighthouse 莉莉一直灯塔

She's afraid of the unknown 她害怕未知的

She's no ray of sunshine 她没有一缕阳光

So mostly she's alone 所以大多是她的独

   

And no one cares about her longing 没有人在意她的渴望

Or the dreams on which she's fed 还是梦想上，她的喂食

And though I'm sad to say it 虽然我很伤心地说

She would be better off dead 她会更好过死

   

Next we have a sheriff 接下来我们有一个警长

He's something of a sideshow 他的东西杂耍的

Will he stand for justice 他会站在正义

Or something else instead? 还是其他什么东西呢？

Either way it hardly matters 无论哪种方式并不重要

'Cause he's better off dead 因为他是最好死了

   

When everything is done 当一切都完成

And everything is said 所有的一切都被说

Life is naught but pain 人生也不过痛

It's better to be dead 这是更好地死

   

Release your heavy heart 释放你的心脏重

Rest your weary head 休息你的疲惫的头

When all the world's at war 当世界上所有的战争

It's better, it's better 它的好，它的更好
