- Perfect Places
[Verse 1]
Every night, I live and die
每當夜幕低垂,我在生死間徘徊
Feel the party to my bones
感覺骨子裡有個派對動物蠢蠢欲動
Watch the
wasters blow the speakers
看著一群酒鬼大聲播著音樂
Spill my
guts beneath the outdoor light
在門外的燈光下嘔吐著烈酒,也吐露了秘密
It's just another graceless night
不過是另一個放蕩的夜晚
I hate the
headlines and the weather
報紙上的頭條如那炎熱的天氣令人發瘋
I'm 19 and
I'm on fire
我簡直火冒三丈
But when we're dancing I'm alright
但跳舞能讓我忘卻惱人的事
It's just another graceless night
不過是另一個糜爛之夜
[Pre-Chorus]
Are you lost enough?
你喝茫了嗎
Have another drink, get lost in us
再來一杯吧,和我們一樣發著酒瘋
This is how we get notorious, oh
我們就是這樣出名的
'Cause I don't know
因為我完全不知道
If they keep tellin' me where to go
如果他們不斷控制著我人生
I'll blow my brains out to the radio, oh
我要打開收音機轟炸著我耳朵
[Chorus]
All of the things we're taking
不管什麼事物我們都欣然接受
'Cause we are young and we're ashamed
我們年輕氣盛,傻也傻過了
Send us to perfect places
將我們送至完美仙境吧
All of our
heroes fading
昔日巨星已殞落
Now I
can't stand to be alone
我無法隻身對抗孤獨
Let's go to perfect places
我們一起到美好的天堂吧
[Verse 2]
Every night, I live and die
每當夜深人靜時,我感覺到生死的交替
Meet somebody, take 'em home
認識陌生人,將他們帶回家
Let's kiss
and then take off our clothes
雙唇交疊,脫去外衣
It's just another graceless night
不過是另一個墮落的夜晚
[Chorus]
All of the things we're taking
所有事物我們來者不拒
'Cause we are young and we're ashamed
我們年輕有本錢,不差另一個錯誤
Send us to perfect places
將我們送往美好仙境吧
All of our
heroes fading
昔日的英雄都不復存在
Now I
can't stand to be alone
我無法忍受孤獨
Let's go to perfect places
讓我們奔往歡樂幻境吧
[Outro] x3
All the nights
spent off our faces
那些糜爛之夜使我們失去過往的容顏
Trying to
find these perfect places
試著找到無憂無慮的天堂
What the
fuck are perfect places anyway?
但到底什麼才是仙境
