I was just a normal guy
我只是个普通人
Life was just a nine to five
人生不过是朝九晚五
With bills and pressure
面对账单和压力
Piled up to the sky
堆积如山
She never asked
她从未问过我
She knew I'd be
她知道我会
Hangin' with my wilder friends
和我更疯狂的朋友在一起
Looking for some other way to fly
寻找另一种飞翔的方式
And three days straight was no big feat
连续三天没什么大不了的
Get by with no food or sleep
不吃不睡勉强度日
And crazy was becoming my new norm
疯狂变成了我的新常态
I'd pass out on the bedroom floor
我会在卧室地板上不省人事
Sleep right through the calm
在平静中酣然入睡
Before the storm
在暴风雨来临之前
My life was just an old routine
我的人生不过是一种陈词滥调
Every day the same dam'n thing
每天都是同样的事情
I couldn't even tell I was alive
我甚至不知道我还活着
I tell you
我告诉你
The high cost of livin'
高昂的生活成本
Ain't nothing like the cost of livin' high
没有什么比得上奢华生活的代价
That southern Baptist parking lot
浸信会的南方停车场
Is where I'd go to smoke my pot
我会去哪里抽烟
Sit there in my pickup truck and pray
坐在我的皮卡车里虔诚祈祷
Staring at that giant 'cross
凝视着巨大的十字架
Just reminded me that I was lost
提醒我我曾迷失自我
And it just never seemed to point the way
似乎从未指明方向
As soon as Jesus turned his back
只要耶稣转过身
I find my way across the track
我找到一条穿越铁轨的路
Lookin' just to score another deal
只想达成另一笔交易
With my back against that dam'n eight ball
我背靠着大坝尽情狂欢
I didn't have to think or talk or feel
我不需要思考不需要说话不需要感受
My life was just an old routine
我的人生不过是一种陈词滥调
Every day the same dam'n thing
每天都是同样的事情
I couldn't even tell I was alive
我甚至不知道我还活着
I tell you
我告诉你
The high cost of livin'
高昂的生活成本
Ain't nothing like the cost of livin' high
没有什么比得上奢华生活的代价
My whole life went through my head
我的整个人生在我脑海里挥之不去
Layin' in that motel bed
躺在汽车旅馆的床上
Watchin' as the cops kicked in the door
看着警察破门而入
I had a job and a piece of land
我有一份工作有一块地
My sweet wife was my best friend
我亲爱的妻子是我最好的朋友
But I traded that for c*****e and a whore
With my new found sobriety
用我新发现的清醒
I've got the time to sit and think
我有时间坐下来思考
Of all the things I had and threw away
想起我拥有又丢弃的一切
This prison is much colder than
这监牢寒冷无比
That one that I was locked up
我被关起来的那个人
In just yesterday
就在昨天
My life is just an old routine
我的人生不过是一种陈词滥调
Every day the same dam'n thing
每天都是同样的事情
Hell I can't even tell if I'm alive
我甚至分不清我是否还活着
I tell you
我告诉你
The high cost of livin'
高昂的生活成本
Ain't nothing like the cost of livin' high
没有什么比得上奢华生活的代价
I tell you
我告诉你
The high cost of livin'
高昂的生活成本
Ain't nothing like the cost of livin' high
没有什么比得上奢华生活的代价
