歌词：Kinda lose your sense of time. Cos the days no matter no more.
你好象失去对时间的感觉，因为这些日子已不再代表什么。
1. No matter意为“无论，不管”。比如：
No matter how hard he may try, he will not succeed.
不管他怎么努力去干都不会成功的。
2. No matter还可以表示“不重要”。比如：
I want to do something else, but it's no matter.
我想干点别的事，但那并不重要。
3. No more意为“不再”。比如：
I will be no more a senior high school student come next July.
当明年七月来到时，我就不再是高中生了。
歌词：The feelings that you hide gonna tear you up inside.
你所掩饰的感情想要打开你的内心。
很简单的一个短语是tear up-撕碎，比如：

我想，我最好把信撕了重写一遍。

歌词：Follows you around all day and you wake up soaking wet.
这段感情整天困扰着你，你每天哭着醒来。
Soak指“浸泡，浸透”，soaking wet在这里指一种“完全湿透了”的状态，比如：
Caught in the heavy rain, my clothes were soaking wet.
由于赶上了大雨,我的衣服都被淋湿了。
歌词you wake up soaking wet意思是：你哭着醒过来。

歌词：You're trying to ease off but you know you won't get far.
你努力使自己缓和下来，但你知道你持续不了多久。
1. Ease作为名词表示“容易”和“悠闲；安逸”，常用的短语有feel at ease-觉得自在，舒适。比如：
I don't feel at ease in the strange place.

2. Ease作为动词呢就是“减轻，放松，缓和”，歌词中搭配了介词off。再来听几个例句：
Having a cup of coffee can ease off your pressure.
喝杯咖啡可以减轻你的压力。
You look very tired,you'd better ease off.
你看来很累了，还是减轻点工作吧。
3. Get far字面意思是“走得远”，在日常口语表达中可以灵活来使用。比如：

你要不努力，就不会有很大成就。
I started to paint the house, but I couldn't get far.
我开始粉刷房子，但还没干多少。

歌词：Struggling with a fight inside, sorrow you'll defeat.

1. Struggle 做为动词和名词都表示“奋斗，斗争”，作为动词时搭配介词with表示“与某人/某物作斗争”，比如：

2. Struggle with oneself/sth：在内心与(自己,自己的良心等)进行斗争。比如：
After struggling with myself for some days,I decided⁴ to accept his offer.
