Prayer for the Paranoid

I′ll send you a letter
我從前線
From the frontline
給你寄了一封信

請給我一些鼓勵
Please send applause
和一些好的建議
And some good advice
你出生時帶著羅盤
You were born with a compass
你的桌上有張地圖
A map on your table
告訴我你是怎麼發現的

你的方向是錯的
Tell me how did you find out
願你為我們祈禱
Your bearings were wrong
祈禱陽光
Just pray for us
天氣轉冷
Pray for sunshine
你在我腦海揮之不去

這個城市充滿勝利曙光
These days are cold
但我從未想過

我可以選擇
And I′m missing you
從一開始就是蒼白

從一開始就是平淡
The city is no place to lose
我一直在虛度光陰
Ah, but I never thought
我需要快樂和愛
I could choose
和一些特效藥
It was plain from the start
我需要香煙

身後的殺手窮追不捨
Plain from the start
魔鬼在前面威逼
I was playing for time
我將葬身此城
I need laughter and love
我將葬身戰壕
Some special drug
已事先為我們修築的
I need cigarettes
只有一件事剩下

僅存的這件事
There′s killers behind us
就是跑
Devils ahead, send protection
雲朵升入天空

我不知道為何
I will drown in this city
吉他從我手中掉落
I will drown in this trench
我屈服了
Built for us
這個城市接納醉漢

歌手和爛詩人
And the only thing left
他們渴望舞蹈，毒藥，和大笑
Yeah the only thing left
我們沒有
Is the running
願你為我們祈禱

祈禱陽光
And these clouds keep on rolling
天氣轉冷
And I, I don′t know why
你在我腦海揮之不去

這封信表達我對你明眸的想念
Take this guitar right out of my hands
撕了它吧，然後藏起它

你是我唯一的生的希望
I surrender
你就是所有
This town don′t want drunkards
不要讓我的希望破滅
Or singers of bad poetry

They want dancing and drugs and laughter
And we don′t have them

Just pray for us
Pray for sunshine
Thesedays are cold
And I′m missing you

This letter was meant for your eyes
Destroy it and then just go hide

You′re the only thing left
That makes any sense
Please don′t blow it
