Heartworms (恶丝虫) (Flipped) - The Shins
Written by:James Mercer
Well I guess I'm just here to test your patience
也许我的存在只是为了挑战你的耐心
'Cause you're so smart my tricks don't work at all
聪慧如你 看穿了我所有的把戏
Is it my lack of education
是不是我念的书不够多
Just tell me why you never call
告诉我吧 为什么你从不回电话
Behind your symmetry lies a fundamental difference
你的完美背后是独一无二
There are those who own the mines and those who crawl
有人坐拥金山银矿 有人在尘世间匍匐
No offense but in between the lines I'm reading
没有冒犯的意思 我看穿了你的心思
You look out for your own
你也在寻找属于你的命运
And you ain't gonna look at me that way
你看我的眼神里没有爱慕之情
And it's true
这是不可否认的事实
So what can I do
我该怎么做
Anything to get some of your affection
才能得到你的爱
What can I do
我该怎么做
Maybe impress you with a song
写一首歌给你够不够心意
What can I do
我该怎么做
I'm trying to minimize the damage done
我试着把伤害降到最低
'Cause there ain't no one like you
因为再也遇不到你这样的人
I found the postcard from that trip you took to Thailand
我找到了你去泰国旅行时寄的明信片
I remember studyin' all the words written in your pretty hand
我记得学习写在你掌心里的每一个字
The little lines and little curves that held a sacred meaning
一笔一画对我而言都无比神圣
Or so I thought
或许只是我一厢情愿
But I had it wrong
是我误解了你的意思
Now I'm trying to figure out when it was you gave me these heartworms
我想知道你究竟何时让我患上相思病
I feel them wriggling in my blood you gonna do me harm
就像虫子在我的血液里蠕动 使我痛不欲生
Right now I'd rather lose this losing feeling that came on
如今我情愿放下所有的感情
When you cooled off
当你冷下心
Started treating me in this friendly way
只把我当作普通朋友
And it's true
事实如此
So what can I do
我该怎么做
Oh won't you be still for a moment
你能否定格在这一刻
What can I do
我该怎么做
So I can push a feather through your heart
让我用羽毛撩动你的心
What can I do
我该怎么做
I'm trying to minimize damage done
我试着把伤害降到最低
'Cause there ain't no one like you
因为再也遇不到你这样的人
So what can I do
我该怎么做
When I get lonely to distraction
当我的孤独将我逼至绝境
What can I do
我该怎么做
Maybe impress you with a song
写一首歌给你够不够心意
What can I do
我该怎么做
No easy way around it
没有捷径可走
You're the saddest dream that ever came true
你是一个最悲伤 但真实的梦
