Written by:Joy McKean
They had my future wrapped up in a parcel
他们将我的未来打包成既定轨迹
And no one even thought of asking me
却无人想过要问我的意愿
The day I turned fifteen I caught the mail train
十五岁那天我跳上邮车逃离
To find what else might be in life for me
去寻找生命中其他可能的光景
I rode on trucks and trains and lived on nothing
我搭货车啃干粮 颠沛流离
Served me right for wanting to be free
追求自由的代价我甘之如饴
Ah well that's the way society looked at it
世人摇头叹这是叛逆的惩罚
But it didn't seem to be that way to me
但在我眼中 这分明是新生晨曦
And the biggest disappointment in the family was me
我是家族最大的败笔与失望
The only twisted branch upon our good old family tree
古老家谱上唯一扭曲的枝桠
I just couldn't be the person they expected me to be
我终究无法活成他们期待的模样
And the biggest disappointment in the world was me
我是这世间最失败的造物
A lot more dinner times than there were dinners
空荡餐桌比食物更常出现
I learned a lot that hurt me at the time
那些伤痛教训刻进年少的骨骼
Then this quiet country boy went home a different man
当安静的乡下男孩归来时已面目全非
With a memory of distance on my mind
带着远方烙在灵魂里的印记
But I always spoke too loud and laughed too often
我总是说话太大声 笑得太过张扬
Maybe drank to many glasses down
或许灌下太多杯苦酒
And perhaps my clothes were older than I realized
直到衣衫褴褛才恍然惊觉
A relief to all concerned when I left town
当我离开小镇时 所有人都松了口气
And the biggest disappointment in the family was me
我是家族最大的败笔与失望
The only twisted branch upon our good old family tree
古老家谱上唯一扭曲的枝桠
I just couldn't be the person they expected me to be
我终究无法活成他们期待的模样
And the biggest disappointment in the world was me
我是这世间最失败的造物
And the biggest disappointment in the family was me
我是家族最大的败笔与失望
The only twisted branch upon our good old family tree
古老家谱上唯一扭曲的枝桠
I just couldn't be the person they expected me to be
我终究无法活成他们期待的模样
And the biggest disappointment in the world was me
我是这世间最失败的造物
