The Failing Songs - Matt Elliott
Written by:Matt Elliott/Patricia Arquelles
As youths we used to talk at night
就像我们过去时常在晚上讨论到的青年时代
Of the joys that life was going to bring our way
生活一直带给我们的欢乐
And the failures of our forebears
和之前的失败的经历一样
Were as clear to us as the cold light of day
这些带给我们的感觉就像冬日的阳光那样清晰
But now those days are dead and gone
但现在这些日子已经逝去
And the future that we had is now the past
曾经的未来 已经变成过去
And it's cobwebs that we cling to
是我们一直坚持编织的蜘蛛网
Our aspirations turned to ashes in our hands
让我们的愿望变成了我们手中的灰烬
