Flightless Bird, American Mouth - Iron & Wine

Lyrics by：Sam Beam

Composed by：Sam Beam

I was a quick wet boy

我曾是个天真纯洁的孩子

Diving too deep for coins

为了生活苦苦地寻觅

All of your street light eyes

城市冰冷的物质眼神

Wide on my plastic toys

肆无忌惮打量我的天真

Then when the cops closed the fair

当世界再无公平二字

I cut my long baby hair

我痛心斩断我的幼稚

Stole me a dog-eared map

唯一的路途也已迷失

And called for you everywhere

到处呼唤你的名字

Have I found you

我是否发现你的踪迹？

Flightless bird

折翼之鸟

Jealous weeping

充满妒忌 回荡着声声哭泣

Or lost you

抑或我失去了你

American mouth

Big pill looming

自由的宣言

都成了泡沫般的回忆

Now I'm a fat house cat

如今我成了一无是处的肥猫

Nursing my sore blunt tongue

自顾舔着那肿痛而味觉迟钝的舌头

Watching the warm poison rats

眼看着快被毒死的老鼠

Curl through the wide fence cracks

卷缩着穿过白色篱笆的缝隙

Pissing on magazine photos

在杂志的照片上撒野

Those fishing lures

将鱼饵扔进

Thrown in the cold and clean

冰冷而纯净的

Blood of Christ mountain stream

圣洁的基督山涧里

Have I found you

我是否发现你的踪迹？

Flightless bird

折翼之鸟

Grounded bleeding

渐渐落地 渗着鲜血

Or lost you

抑或我失去了你

American mouth

自由的宣言

Big pill stuck going down

遗失的美好 不再执着
