Again I'm pulled back into deep waters 再次声明，我被送回深水区

Washed further away from my sisters and brothers 从我的兄弟姐妹们冲渐行渐远

We were laughing, crying, joking 我们都笑了，哭了，开玩笑

And now, with calloused hands, gather the remaining fruit 而现在，随着老茧的双手，收集剩余的水果

To go any farther, we must endure further pains 再往前走，就必须再忍受阵痛

Skinned, mashed, and finally strained 剥皮，捣碎，最后紧张

Fermenting in the time spent away 发酵中所花的时间远

Only to return with a fine vintage 只返回一个精美的陈年

To cheers to the health of those who stayed 要欢呼那些谁留的健康
