He wasn't really known for breaking the rules
他总是那样墨守成规
When he arrived in the second year of my high school
当他在我高二转来我们学校时
He wasn't so much of a twist of fate
命运还没有那么曲折
As a short turn up from a southern state
作为一个来自南方的借读生
He was born with a sweet tooth he couldn't beat
他生来就有爱吃甜食的习惯 怎么也改不掉
Always trying to find himself something sweet
他总是试着给自己的生活找些甜甜的调味品
All that he found was a trouble and me
但他只发现了麻烦和我
Or maybe trouble just found him
也或许是麻烦找上了他
It was hard to hide that his heart had scars
他的心事和伤疤很难隐藏
He would stay up late talking to the stars
他总会彻夜无眠对着繁星说话
People tried to blame him for making bad choices
人们总喜欢怪他做了错误的决定
When he was only listening to the voices
但他只会听从内心的声音
And searching for some kind of deeper truth
寻找更深一层的真理
Between the lines and the bible and living proof
从圣经的字里行间以及生动的证明之中
There's no point now to judge him in vain
如今评判他的过错已经毫无意义
If you haven't been there you don't know the pain
如果你没有经历过那些 你就不会明白那些痛苦
He was a liar but not a fraud
他虽然撒谎了 但他并不是一个骗子
Living proof that there was no god
他生动地证明了世界上并没有上帝
Just the devil stiff as a rod
只有如权势般失信的恶魔
A slave to a sugartooth
不过是欲望的奴隶
His life became more than he could take
他的人生远远不是他能够承受的
He found a bad habit he couldn't break
他发现他有一个无法改掉的坏习惯
Nothing could tame him and nothing could hold him
没有什么可以将他制服 没有什么可以将他阻挡
He only took the pills when the doctor told him
他只会在医生的叮嘱下吃下药片
Looking to help for the something sweet
渴望得到帮助 渴望那些甜蜜的事物
To make his life feel as incomplete
来让他不完整的人生感觉到美好一些
What in the hell are you gonna do
你究竟想要做什么
When the world has made its mind up about you
当世人都对你议论纷纷的时候
He was a liar but not a fraud
他虽然撒谎了 但他并不是一个骗子
Living proof that there was no god
他生动地证明了世界上并没有上帝
Just the devil stiff as a rod
只有如权势般失信的恶魔
A slave to a sugartooth
不过是欲望的奴隶
He wanted to be a better man
他想要成为更好的人
Then life kicked him down like an old tin can
可是生活却将他像易拉罐一样狠狠摔下
He would give you the shirt on his back
他会给你他所拥有的一切
If not for a sugartooth
如果那不是为了欲望的话
They found him lying on his bed
人们发现他躺在自己的床上
With a gun in his hand and a quiet head
一手拿枪 已经没了气息
His broken heart now is finally gone
心碎的他最终还是离开了这个世界
But I know that he had to hurt for too long
但是我知道他已经被伤害了太久
To think he had fought it all on his own
他一直在独自战斗
Just to lose the battle and die alone
最后输了战斗 独自死去
After so many years of feeling the loss
这么多年的失落沮丧
He finally made his way back home
最终将他压垮
And I helped put what was left in a box
我将他的尸骨放进骨灰盒之中
And took it to a place called Jesus Rock
将它埋在一个叫做Jesus Rock的地方
And scattered him all over jagged mound
他的骨灰散落在这墓地之上
As a symbol to all that the piece had been found
这个骨灰盒对那些散落的碎片来说 也算一个象征
But not for a sign is left behind
但却不是遗留的指示牌
With a hand stuck reaching back in time
手拿着测量尺回忆起过去
To a place in which you can never unwind
回到那个你永远都无法释然的地方
