"Brought Up That Way"

From the album Others(2003-2025)
Emily comes home from school
艾米莉放学回到家
Grabs onto her daddy's hand
紧紧攥住爸爸的手
He says, "Baby girl, what's wrong with you?"
他说:“宝贝,你怎么了?”
She says, "Please, don't make me go back there again."
她轻叹着说:"求你别让我再回到那地方。"
She said, "I wish there was some way to make them stop it."
她说:"多想让这一切都停下。"
So he drives down to that principal's office
于是他驱车直奔校长办公室
And says
她轻声说
"I didn't bring her up so they could cut her down
我用心呵护的花朵 怎容他人轻易摧折
I didn't bring her here so they could shut her out
我邀她来不是为了让她受冷落
I live my whole damn life to see that little girl's smile
我耗尽一生只为看她笑靥如花
So why are tears pouring down that sweet face?
为何泪水滑落你温柔的脸庞
She wasn't brought up that way."
她生来就不该这样。
Emily's home late again
艾米莉又晚归了家
He sees that boy drive away
他目送那男孩驾车远去
Oh, but something's different this time
可这次感觉却不一样
She doesn't have too much to say
她总是沉默寡言
She said, "He tried but there's just some things I won't do."
她说:“他努力过,但有些事我绝不会做。”
And through the tears she said, "I couldn't do that to you."
她含泪轻语:"我怎忍心这样对你"
And he said
他说
"I didn't bring you up so he could wear you down
我含辛茹苦将你养大 不是让他来糟蹋
Take that innocent heart and turn it inside out
将那颗纯真的心 彻底翻个底朝天
I live my whole damn life to see my little girl's smile
我这一生所求 只为看你笑靥如花
So don't let nobody take that away
别让任何人夺走这份爱
You weren't brought up that way."
你本不该如此长大。
The phone rings on a rainy night, says, "It's officer Tate"
雨夜电话铃声响起 警官泰特低沉声音
He said, "Sir, there's been an accident
他说:“先生,出了点意外”
You better come down here right away
你最好立刻给我滚过来
A drunken driver missed an overpass
醉驾的司机错过高架路
And Emily, she's fading fast."
艾米莉啊,她的身影正渐渐消逝。
He says, "God, I didn't bring her up to watch them lay her down
他说:“上帝啊,我养她长大不是为了看她被埋葬”
Nearly killed me the day they put her own momma in the ground
那天她亲手埋葬母亲 我的心也碎成灰烬
Only thing kept me alive was that little girl's smile
唯有那女孩的笑容 让我熬过漫长黑夜
So please, don't take that away
求你别带走这份爱
It won't be easy taking her today
今天要带走她可不容易
She wasn't brought up that way."
她生来就不该这样。
He stands over the hospital bed
他伫立在病床前
Emily opens her eyes
艾米莉睁开双眼
