The Connoisseur of Great Excuse

Damien Rice

Of all the foolish things to do
我曾做过令自己悔恨的事
I became a connoisseur of great excuse
却拼命为自己寻找堂皇的托词
And my pessimistic past the blame
所发生的一切都已于事无补
Will never make this go away
我的悲观令我永远无法释怀
Of all the foolish things I’ve said
曾说了许多令自己抱歉的话
That keep me sleepy almost dead
我逃避到睡梦中昏沉至死

I’m sorry if I’ve let you down
万分抱歉若曾令你失望
My eyes were closed, they’re open now
现在我逐渐睁开我曾紧闭的双眼

I’m waking up
我正在逐渐醒来
I am waking up
我在逐渐醒来
I am waking up
逐渐醒来
I awake
清醒过来

And this has all been said before
是的曾有人向我指出我的疏忽
I’ve listened but then I ignored
自大的我却选择充耳不闻
My ears grew deaf
现在面对着责难我不愿意去听
My head gave up
也不愿意去想
The junkie knows not when to stop
如瘾君子一般逃避不已
Of all the foolish alibis
人们对我编造出的蹩脚借口
The constipated push for why
并不买账
I’ve had a blanket pulled over my eyes
我的确曾蒙上双眼假装这一切都没发生过
Oh hush now baby don’t you cry
但亲爱的你不要再哭了

I’m waking up
我正在逐渐醒来
I am waking up
我正逐渐醒来
I am waking up
逐渐醒来
I’m awake
清醒过来
I’m waking up
我正在逐渐醒来
Coming

I am waking up
我正逐渐醒来
I’m ready
我准备好了
I am waking up
要清醒过来
I’m awake
我醒过来了
