Palm Trees

Palm trees burning in breeze
微风中热烈燃烧的棕榈树
And even when it rains, it's seventy degrees

You can hike to the Hollywood sign if that's where you wanna be

Things you take for granted when you grow up by the beach

I thought I'd never wanna leave

But I'd lived a life in traffic on the 10 and 405

Makes me wanna die
让我崩溃欲死
Maybe LA lost its magic but not every death is tragic
也许洛杉矶不再那么令人神往 但并非每次死亡皆为悲剧
It can make you feel alive
这能让你容光焕发
Wishing this car could fly away from here
希望这辆车能就此远走高飞
Higher than the palm trees
飞过棕榈树

They say everybody's beautiful and everyone's dumb here
人们说这里每个人都是花瓶
They say everything's expensive and everyone's fake
说所有东西都是昂贵的赝品
So every time I tell someone that I'm from here
所以每次当我告诉别人 我来自这里
They look at me like I said it by mistake
他们惊讶地看着我 就像我说错了话一样
I say I'm twenty-eight

Spending another night in traffic on the 10 and 405
在水泄不通10号和405号高速公路上 又熬过一个夜晚
Makes me wanna cry
让我郁闷得想哭
It's hard to imagine but not every death is tragic

It can make you feel alive
这能让你容光焕发
Don't you know that angels can fly away from here?
难道你不知道天使可以就此远走高飞
Higher than the palm trees
飞过棕榈树

So tonight I'll get high one more time
所以今晚我会再放飞一次
And sit outside at night on the rose and vine
夜晚坐在外面 那玫瑰和葡萄藤蔓上
Where the stars in the sky are the city lights
城市万千灯火充当满天繁星
And I'll be safe as long as I'm home by night
只要晚上待在家 我就是安全的
From the day that I was flying

To the day that Kobe died

I been here my whole life

So maybe it's time
也许是时候
To say goodbye to the palm trees
