Simple walk to the corner store
照常无奇的一天 行走于旧迹
Momma never thought she would be getting a call from the coroner
那位母亲不曾料到
Said her son's been gunned down, been gunned down
她的孩子已被枪杀
"Can you come now?"
“你能赶过来吗”
Tears in her eyes, "Can you calm down?
她已泪眼湿透 那边说着“冷静点”
Please, ma'am, can you calm down?"
“你不能失控啊”


But it rained fire in the city that day
那日天如火硝
They say
人们传言道
A river of blood in the streets
血河染红了整条街
No love in the streets
没有丝毫爱的温意
And then came silence in the city that day
随后 冷清充斥了这个城市
They say
他们说啊
Just another one gone
生死离别乃常事
And they tell her, "Move on"
让她“往前看吧”
And she's stuck there singing
她一动不动 放声歌唱道


Baby, don't you close your eyes
我的宝贝 你倒是睁眼啊
This could be our final time
让我见你最后一面
And you know I'm horrible at saying goodbye
你也知道我不舍告别啊
And I think of all you could've done
脑子里都是你尚未完成的事
At least you'll stay forever young
唉 你至少能免受老去的痛
I guess you've picked the perfect way to die
你概是选择了最舒适的解脱
Ooh, I guess you picked the perfect way to die
如此年轻便消逝于世 你概是得多于失的


New job, new city, new her
她现已重获新生 来到另一个城市重寻归所
Bright eyes, you would've been proud if you knew her
但凡是知道她的遭遇 都会为她欣喜
Flashing lights in the mirror, pull over, pull over
眼前灯亮若隐若现
A couple nights in detention then it's over
有时于深夜殇存 但希望还是破灭了
Her whole life's over
她的人生惨淡告终


They came marching in the city that day
游行毅然爆发
They say
人们说啊
Carrying signs in the streets
举着标语行走在街头
Crying eyes in the street
千万人湿透双眼
But they heard nothing from the city that day
但政府没有任何响应
They say
大家都说
Just another one gone
又一个英雄倒下了
And the city moves on
不能再失去更多人
We're stuck here singing
我们于此呼喊


Baby, don't you close your eyes
别屈服啊亲爱的
'Cause this could be our final time
让我们再见一次
And you know I'm horrible at saying goodbye
我实在不愿再经历离别
And I think of all you could've done
你本是前途无量啊
At least you'll stay forever young
唉 你至少能免受老去的痛
I guess you've picked the perfect way to die
你概是选择了最舒适的解脱
Oh, I guess you picked the perfect way to die
如此年轻便消逝于世 你概是得多于失的


Another dream lost
又一次梦想破灭
Another king and queen lost
当政者再次失信
Another broken promise they refuse to make right
为何总是食言 不愿公事公办
Oh, another night to live in fear
今夜又将担惊受怕
Oh, another night that you're not here
今夜又将失去另一个他
Another reason to get out there and fight
我们还将为此挣扎奋战
But I say



Baby, don't you close your eyes
我的宝贝 你倒是睁眼啊
'Cause this could be our final time
让我见你最后一面
And you know I'm horrible at saying goodbye
你也知道我不舍告别啊
And I think of all you could've done
脑子里都是你尚未完成的事
At least you'll stay forever young
唉 你至少能免受老去的痛
I guess you've picked the perfect way to die
你概是选择了最舒适的解脱
Ooh, I guess you picked the perfect way to die
如此年轻便消逝于世 你概是得多于失的
