The failing song - Matt Elliott
As youths we used to talk at night
作为我们曾经在夜晚聊天的年轻人
Of the joys that life was going to bring our way
生活会给我们带来欢乐的方式
And the failures of our forebears
和我们的祖先的失败
Were as clear to us as the cold light of day
是我们为寒冷的阳光一样清晰
But now those days are dead & gone
但现在那些日子已经死了，走了
And the future that we had is now the past
我们现在的未来是过去
And it's cobwebs that we cling to
它是蜘蛛网，我们坚持
Our aspirations turned to ashes in our hands
我们的愿望变成了我们手中的灰烬
