Heartworms (Flipped)

Heartworms (Flipped) - The Shins

Written by：James Mercer
可能我的存在只是为了挑战你的耐心

你是如此聪慧，我的小把戏毫无作用
Well I guess I'm just here to test your patience
是我才疏学浅

快告诉我为何你从不来电
Cause you're so smart my tricks don’t work at all
你并不如表面上那般如一

有人坐拥金矿，有人艰难匍匐
Is it my lack of education
无意冒犯，但在字里行间
Just tell me why you never call
你也在寻找你的真爱
Behind your symmetry lies a fundamental difference
可你看我的眼神如此冷淡

这是真的
There are those who own the mines and those who crawl
那么我能做些什么

任何事物，只为得到你的一点爱
No offense but, in between the lines I'm reading
我能做些什么
You look out for your own
或许能用一首歌打动你

我该做些什么
And you ain’t gonna look at me that way
我正试着将伤害降至最低

因你独一
And it’s true
我找到了你去泰国旅行的明信片

我曾研习写在你纤纤掌心的所有字句
So what can I do
那些弯直曲线是如此神圣
Anything to get some of your affection
或许只是我的一厢情愿
What can I do
果然
Maybe impress you with a song
我努力想弄清你何时给我植入了这些相思之虫
What can I do
我能感受到它们在我的血液里蠕动，你使我痛不欲生
I'm trying to minimize the damage done
如今我情愿放下这种失落
Cause there ain't no one like you
当你失去热情

只把我当普通朋友
I found the postcard from that trip you took to Thailand
事实如此

那么我能做些什么
I remember studyin' all the words written in your pretty hand
你甚至不愿多停留一刻
The little lines and little curves that held a sacred meaning
我该做些什么
Or so I thought
能让感情的一羽进入你的心

我要做些什么
But I had it wrong
我试着把伤害降至最低
Now I'm trying to figure out when it was you gave me these heartworms
你世上无二
I feel them wriggling in my blood you gonna do me harm
我到底要做什么
Right now I'd rather lose this losing feeling that came on
当我孤独落魄
When you cooled off
我能做些什么
Started treating me in this friendly way
或许一首真挚的歌能够打动你

我该做些什么
And it's true
没有坦途可走

你是我最悲伤的真实一梦
So what can I do
Oh won't you be still for a moment
What can I do
So I can push a feather through your heart
What can I do
I'm trying to minimize damage done
Cause there ain't no one like you

So what can I do

When I get lonely to distraction
What can I do
Maybe impress you with a song
What can I do
No easy way around it
You're the saddest dream that ever came true
