[Verse 1]
I'm caught up in the everyday trend
我被日常的潮流困住
Tied up by invisible thread
被無形的線束縛
Walking down a razor-thin edge
走在鋒利的邊緣
And I wake up tired, think I'm better off dead
我醒來時疲憊不堪,想著不如死去
Been a few months since I crossed over state lines
已經好幾個月沒跨過州界了
Talk to my mom, fake smiles over FaceTime
和媽媽在FaceTime上用假笑聊著天
Drink all night till I can't walk in a straight line
整晚喝酒,直到我走不了直線
Feel so low but I'm high at the same time
感覺無比低落,但我同時又有點飄飄然的感覺
[Pre-Chorus]
I can't keep my feet on the ground
我沒辦法保持我的雙腳踩在地上
And I'm nervous what you'll think of me now
擔心你現在會怎麼看待我
I'm hoping that someone comes around
我希望有人能來我身邊
Helps me figure it out
幫我搞清楚
[Chorus]
I think that I should try to kill my ego
我想我應該試著扼殺自我
'Cause if I don't, my ego might kill me
因為如果我不這麼做,我的自我可能會反過來殺了我
I'm all grown up but somehow lately
我已經長大了,但不知為何最近
I'm acting like a fucking baby
我像個他X的嬰兒一樣任性
I'm really not as happy as I seem
其實我真的沒看起來那麼快樂
[Verse 2]
Still a little kid that can't make friends
還是那個不會交朋友的小孩
Wanna be invited, but I won't attend
想要被邀請,但卻不會參加
I've been having bad dreams my career could end
總是夢到我的事業會結束的惡夢
'Cause I slip up when I should've played pretend
因為我在該假裝的時候露出了真面目
Turned eighteen and I left the city
十八歲時我離開了那座城市
Said, "I wanna be cool, I don't wanna be pretty"
説:「我想要很酷,而不是漂亮。」
The voices all came crashing down
那些聲音全部湧現
And said, "You're too nice to run this town"
並說:「你太善良,不適合在這座城市闖蕩。」
[Pre-Chorus]
I can't keep my feet on the ground
我沒辦法保持我的雙腳踩在地上
And I'm nervous what you'll think of me now
擔心你現在會怎麼看待我
I'm hoping that someone comes around
我希望有人能來我身邊
Helps me figure it out
幫我搞清楚
[Chorus]
I think that I should try to kill my ego
我想我應該試著扼殺自我
'Cause if I don't, my ego might kill me
因為如果我不這麼做,我的自我可能會反過來殺了我
I'm all grown up but somehow lately
我已經長大了,但不知為何最近
I'm acting like a fucking baby
我像個他X的嬰兒一樣任性
I'm really not as happy as I seem
其實我真的沒看起來那麼快樂
Nothing's as it seems
一切都不是表面那樣
Nothing's as it seems
一切都不是表面那樣
And I'm all grown up but somehow lately
我已經長大了,但不知為何最近
I'm acting like a fucking baby
我像個他X的嬰兒一樣任性
I'm really not that happy being me
其實我真的沒看起來那麼快樂
[Bridge]
I don't like the lie I'm living
我不喜歡過著種謊言般的生活
I'm way too nice and too forgiving
我太過善良,太過寬容
I wanna go back to the beginning
我想要回到一開始
When it all felt right
當一切都感覺是對的時候
A rooftop, Lower East Side, I'm singing
在Lower East Side的屋頂上,我唱著歌
Didn't give a fuck if I was winning
不在乎自己是否贏了
It's all done now, who am I kidding?
一切都結束了,我在騙誰?
(Who am I kidding?)
(我在騙誰?)
I'm doing way worse than I'm admitting
我比自己承認的狀況還要糟糕
[Chorus]
I think that I should try to kill my ego
我想我應該試著扼殺自我
'Cause if I don't, my ego might kill me
因為如果我不這麼做,我的自我可能會反過來殺了我
I'm all grown up but somehow, lately
