Fools - The Dodos

Our fathers have been entangled in things
父亲经常纠缠于过去：
He's been squandering, he's been squandering
我一事无成，我大好人生被浪费了
And we don't do a thing, 'cause we're busy and think
不是因为我什么也不做而是因为我们忙着思考
We're just wandering, we're just a-wandering like fools
我只会幻想，像个傻瓜一样
His son is his prize, he tells a few lies
父亲把希望寄托在孩子身上，他对孩子撒谎
He's got his father's eyes, it's in his father's eyes
而他早就从他父亲的眼中找到原因了
And he thinks in his mind that he's just getting by
父亲知道为什么他只是不愿意接受
But he's a compromise, he's just a compromising fool
父亲只会妥协，他只是一个妥协的傻瓜
And the stance that we take isn't much to bear
如果我们的立场不坚定
Yeah, we leave things to change on their time
我们任由时间流逝却什么也不做
And our failure to care for it leaves us blind
妥协只会让我们盲目
'til we're tired and we're crazed in the mind
直到我们疲惫而疯狂

他也对父亲撒谎道：
Now he lies on his back, and they tell him it's that
这是心病
It's just a heart attack, it's just a heart attack
一切都太晚了，你所失去的
Too late to return to the ones that you've earned
不会再回来了，不会再回来了
No they don't give it back, no they don't give it back to fools
如果我们的立场不坚定

我们任由时间流逝却什么也不做
And the stance that we take isn't much to bear
妥协只会让我们盲目
Yeah, we leave things to change on their time
直到我们劳累而疯狂
And our failure to care for it leaves us blind
父亲沉默了
'til we're tired and we're crazed in the mind
I've been, I've been silent
