Red To Black

I had a friend named Victor
我有一個朋友叫做維克多
The two of us used to hang every single day
我們兩個人以前每天經常出去浪
And it seemed like overnight that his whole life just changed
好像就那麼一晚上，他的一生被改變了
I know when his mom and dad broke up
我知道他的父母分開了
It didnt make sense but I know that his dad was a drunk
但這並沒什麼，我知道他爸爸是個酒鬼
And he gambled away the rent
賭輸了所有的房租錢
Pretty soon vic was seein red
不一會維克多就見紅了
Pissed off but instead
他生氣極了，但是
He drank every night til he passed out
他每天晚上喝到失去意識
Then he d do it all again
第二天又重蹈覆轍
The whole time smiling on the outside to cover the pain
自始至終，在外表上總是用微笑來掩蓋痛苦
But on the inside all he was tryin to do was get away
但在內心，他想做的只是逃離這一切
Dying to get away
死都想逃離
Let the pain of yesterday go slipping through the cracks
讓昨日的痛苦從縫隙中流出
Funny how things change color
事情正在起變化是多麼有趣
Then fade to another shade
然後慢慢黯淡變黑
When you had it made it was all good
當你一開始擁有它的時候一切安好
But now look just another day
但現在看看，已經是另一番景象
It was so fresh it was so clean
它曾如此新鮮，它曾如此純潔
Now its all gone
現在都沒有了
123lights out
123燈滅
Which way to turn
該走哪條路
Cant get a grip
什麼都抓不到
All alone in a big white house
在空蕩蕩的房間裡孤身一人
Everyday gets worse and you just curse
每一天都變得更糟，而你只能罵兩句
til your head bursts and it hurts so bad
直到你頭疼欲裂，如此痛苦
She left like yourself should have thought of that one first
她就這麼離開了，就好像你早就有心理準備一樣
No family no kids can t accept what you did
沒有家庭，沒有小孩，無法接受你的作為
Now you wanna runaway but you cant cuz the past comes back again
現在你想逃之夭夭，可你做不到，因為過往又重現了
Slippin through the cracks
從縫隙中溜走
Sip a little jack
喝一口小酒
Go to bed half dead
癱在床上半死不活
What about rent
房租怎麼辦
Why does every cent gotta be a bet
為什麼每一分錢都變成賭資
Whens it gonna end
何時方休
Oh my god we dont got a penny left
我的天，我們一分錢都不剩了
My mom s gotta find a way to get a job
我的媽要去找一份工作了
Outta debt outta dodge outta breath outta this big problem
換不清債，也躲不掉，無法呼吸，都是問題
My pops wanna get away from the pain
我的爸想逃離這種痛苦
In a better place in his brain
用他還能思考的那部分腦子
But the medication he takes makes him wasted
但是他吃的藥讓他憔悴不堪
So sick if hes gonna think the good lord would come take him
真病態，他想萬能的主能不能過來把他帶走
Im shakin him wake up you son of a bitch
我拼命搖著他，“醒醒吧，你這婊子養的！ ”
He s dying to get away
他死都想逃離
Let the pain of yesterday go slipping through the cracks
讓昨日的痛苦從縫隙中流出
Hiding himself away watching all the memories fade
將自己隱藏，看著回憶慢慢褪去
Away From red to black
從紅到黑
He s dying to get away
他死都想逃離
Let the pain of yesterday go slipping through the cracks
讓昨日的痛苦從縫隙中流出
Hiding himself away watching all the memories fade
將自己隱藏，看著回憶慢慢褪去
Away From red to black

（Slipping through the Cracks）
從縫隙中流出
