Tachycardia

It's a mass grave
这世界是个巨大的墓地
A dollar-fifty resting place
铜臭味满地
On the north face
悬挂在北坡上
It's a rope I've gotta climb
这是我必须抓紧的绳索
I'm a stone's throw from everyone I love and know
认识的人甚至我爱的人都向我扔石头
But I can't show up looking like I do
我只能隐藏真实的自我
In an old suit, my hair is slicked back nice and smooth
穿着旧套装，梳着利落的背头发型
In a courtroom, sweat rolling down my back
在法庭上，汗流浃背地接受审判
It's a bad dream
这个梦魇
I have it seven times a week
我夜夜深受其害
No it's not me
不是我犯下的罪
But I'm the one who has to die
但我该被判死刑
Needs a cold draw to slow his tachycardia
心率过速，急需冷静缓解
In a dark bar the world just melts away
昏暗的酒吧里 世界似乎融化殆尽
And he feels fine
他感觉良好
If he can just lose track of time
如果他能遗忘时间的存在
It's a good sign when he can't stay awake
他没办法保持清醒 这是件好事
On a slow day the rain against the windowpane of the cafe
咖啡厅窗玻璃上 雨水和岁月静静流淌
She spills the coffee grounds
她把咖啡倒在地上
And the same thought hits her like a cinder block
就像被渣煤砖击中 相同的想法突然袭来
Life's an odd job that she don't got the nerve to quit
生活是一份奇怪的工作 一份她没勇气辞职的工作
Yeah it's just there
它就在那里
At the bottom of those spiral stairs
螺旋梯的底端
It's the World's Fair
就像世界博览会
The future's on display
未来展现眼前
In the still night
在安静的夜里
They turned on the electric lights
霓虹电灯闪现
And the crowd cried out
人们呼喊着
Everyone looks so amazed
大惊失色
