The cars leave their trails of hot and cold light inside my head 汽车离开冷热光源的小径我的脑袋里

Like burned-in long exposure pictures 就像烧在长时间曝光的图片

The wheels spin slowly backwards 车轮慢慢转动向后

Strobing in the amber light 频闪的黄灯

And the rain comes down and washes my brain 雨淋下来和洗涤我的大脑

But it don't get clean 但它不弄干净

This town has turned me into what I have become 这个城市已经把我变成什么样我已经成为

This town dresses me up like a stranger 这个小镇打扮我，像个陌生人

This town performs in the window like the ultimate gift 这个镇在像终极天赋的窗口执行

This town takes us down 这个镇把我们失望

I feel like I'm losing you to this town 我觉得我要失去你这个小镇

   

We were saving our money for half of our lives 我们节省了我们的钱，我们一半的生命

We were saving our dreams 我们节省了我们的梦想

And we came to this place to make the chances real 我们来到这个地方，使真正的机会

In the big city 在大城市

But I've been counting the days 但我一直在数着日子

I've been watching you change 我一直在看你改变

And I can feel it dying 我能感觉到它快死

The noise outside takes you in its arms 外面吵闹的声音把你的武器

Like a lamb to a lion 如同羊羔，以狮子

   

And down there somewhere among the noise 和那里的某个地方噪音之中

The magazine dolls and the big money boys 该杂志娃娃和大资金的男生

Move silently on their easy heels 潜行在他们方便的高跟鞋

They move silently on their greasy wheels 他们潜行在他们的车轮油腻

   

This town has turned me into what I have become 这个城市已经把我变成什么样我已经成为

This town dresses you up like a stranger 这个小镇的衣服，你像一个陌生人

This town hangs around in the doorway and tells me I'm late 这个镇周围挂在门口，并告诉我，我来晚了

This town takes us down, takes us down 这个镇把我们失望，把我们失望

I feel like I'm losing you to this town 我觉得我要失去你这个小镇

   

The morning breaks and I watch you awake 上午休息，我看你清醒

This town takes you down away from me again 这个城市需要你失望离开我了
