关于原生家庭的一首歌
有时放下是一种选择
词
I used to shut my door,
我曾紧关房门，
When my mother screamed in the kitchen,
只留妈妈独自在厨房叫喊，
I'd turn the music up,
我把音乐开的超大声，
Get high and try not to listen,
尝试沉浸其中而不理会妈妈的声音，
To every little fight,
大大小小的争吵，
'Cause neither one was right,
我们都不承认是自己错了，
I swore to never be like them,
我发誓永远不会变成像他们一样的人，
But I was just a kid back then,
但那时我年纪尚小 无能为力，
The older I get, the more that I see,
年纪渐长 阅历增多，
My parents aren't heroes, they're just like me,
我明白 父母也不是神 我们都只是普通人，
And loving is hard, it don't always work,
爱一个人很难 并不总是顺风顺水，
You just try your best not to get hurt,
你只能竭尽所能保护自己不受伤害，
I used to be mad, but now I know,
我曾无法理解 但现在我明白，
Sometimes it's better to let someone go,
有时候放下是更好的选择，
It just hadn't hit me yet,
当时的我阅历尚浅，
The older I get,
长大后才明白这一切，
I used to wonder why,
我曾感到困惑，
Why they could never be happy,
为何父母总是无法绽放笑颜，
I used to close my eyes,
我只好闭上双眼，
And pray for a whole 'nother family,
祈祷可以生活在另一个家庭，
Where everything was fine,
另一个事事如意的家庭，
One that felt like mine,
另一个让我有归属感的家庭，
I swore to never be like them,
我发誓永远不会变成像他们一样的人，
But I was just a kid back then,
但那时我年纪尚小 无能为力，
The older I get, the more that I see,
My parents aren't heroes, they're just like me,
我明白 父母也不是神 我们都只是普通人，
And loving is hard, it don't always work,
爱一个人很难 并不总是顺风顺水，
You just try your best not to get hurt,

Sometimes it's better to let someone go,
