新鲜朋克：EleventySeven - The Best I Can

EleventySeven这支流行朋克乐队于2002年组队，2006年首张专辑上市并没有很大反响，到2007年发行受到一批狂热粉丝的追随，同时该专辑的发行也使得ES真正迈向主流朋克市场。09年第三张专辑由他们独立发行,质量却出奇的好,每首歌都很好听，整张专辑极具新鲜感。这首The Best I Can就是其中之一。

 

I know something's wrong,
'Cause your staring out the window,
And your one word answers give it all away,
If you can read my face,
I'm lost in outer space,
And I'm looking for a clue to bring me back to you.

'Cause we both feel the pain,
We just say it different ways,
Hear my heart before you hear my lips.
'Cause I can't win this game,
If I don't know how to play.
Don't give up just try and understand,
I'm doing the best I can.

I know its been hard,
And you get so frustrated¹,
Looking for a reason or a rhyme to how I think,
I don't know how to help,
So I'll repeat myself,
I hope the words will come out, different everytime.

'Cause we both feel the pain,
We just say it different ways,
Hear my heart before you hear my lips.
'Cause I can't win this game,
If I don't know how to play.
Don't give up just try and understand,
I'm doing the best I can.

Love will turn you into things you never thought you'd be.
And love will make you look at things you didn't want to see.
I know that it feels just like we're drifting² out to sea.
But love is holding on, and all the world is doubting having you believe.

'Cause we both feel the pain,
We just say it different ways,
Hear my heart before you hear my lips.
'Cause I can't win this game,
If I don't know how to play.
Don't give up just try and understand,
I'm doing the best I can.
