West Hills
Brandon Flowers, Jonathan Rado
(Alright, well I'm twenty-six so I've lived here for twenty-six years)
(I married my high school sweetheart so we've been mar-)
(We've been together eleven years)
(Um, I don't really travel much so I've just been here)
(Uh, I, I'm busy John, you'll just have to wait)
(Uh, my little brother he moved into the community)
(And they tried to tape him to a flag pole or a tree up at the high school)
(So if you don't fit their mold)
(It's just a nice small community, everybody knows everybody)
(Good place to live and to raise kids)
(We'll be here forever so, yeah, it's a good area)
I was born right here in Zion, God's own son
His Holy Ghost stories and bloodshed never scared me none
While they bowed their heads on Sunday
I cut out through the hedges and fields
Where the light could place its hands on my head
In the west hills
Free in the west hills
Free in the west hills
She's got two full-grown children, one still on the vine
And once I got to know him I loved him like he was mine
Some nights we drive up the mouth of the canyon
On hillbilly heroin pills
We get out and watch the sunset
Peaceful and still
Free in the west hills
Free in the west hills
When the sheriff kicked my door down
I was sleeping in my own bed
And the mess I got caught up in
Rained hard down on my head
And they got me for possession of them hillbilly heroin pills
Enough to kill the horses that run free in the west hills
They got me for possession of enough to kill the horses that run
Free in the west hills
Free in the west hills
If this life was meant for proving
I could use more years to live
But fifteen in a guardhouse
That's more than I'm willing to give
And if there really is a judgement
When He pulls my chart
He'll reject my actions
But He will know my heart
And he'll prepare a place for me
Where happiness instills
And the light puts its loving hands on my head
Free in the west hills
They got me for possession of enough to kill the horses that run
Free in the west hills
Free in the west hills
Free, free in the west hills, in the west hills, in the west hills, hills
(Alright, well I'm twenty-six so I've lived here for twenty-six years)
(Also gut, ich bin sechsundzwanzig, also habe ich hier sechsundzwanzig Jahre gelebt)
(I married my high school sweetheart so we've been mar-)
(Ich habe meine Jugendliebe geheiratet, also sind wir verh-)
(We've been together eleven years)
(Wir sind seit elf Jahren zusammen)
(Um, I don't really travel much so I've just been here)
(Ähm, ich reise nicht wirklich viel, also bin ich einfach hier geblieben)
(Uh, I, I'm busy John, you'll just have to wait)
(Äh, ich, ich bin beschäftigt, John, du musst einfach warten)
(Uh, my little brother he moved into the community)
(Äh, mein kleiner Bruder, er ist in die Gemeinde gezogen)
(And they tried to tape him to a flag pole or a tree up at the high school)
(Und sie versuchten, ihn an einen Fahnenmast oder einen Baum in der High School zu kleben)
(So if you don't fit their mold)
(Also wenn du nicht in ihre Form passt)
(It's just a nice small community, everybody knows everybody)
(Es ist einfach eine nette kleine Gemeinde, jeder kennt jeden)
(Good place to live and to raise kids)
(Guter Ort zum Leben und zum Aufziehen von Kindern)
(We'll be here forever so, yeah, it's a good area)
(Wir werden hier für immer sein, also ja, es ist eine gute Gegend)
I was born right here in Zion, God's own son
Ich wurde hier in Zion geboren, Gottes eigener Sohn
His Holy Ghost stories and bloodshed never scared me none
Seine Heiligen Geistergeschichten und Blutvergießen haben mich nie erschreckt
While they bowed their heads on Sunday
Während sie sonntags ihre Köpfe senkten
I cut out through the hedges and fields
Schnitt ich durch die Hecken und Felder
Where the light could place its hands on my head
Wo das Licht seine Hände auf meinen Kopf legen konnte
In the west hills
In den Westhügeln
Free in the west hills
Frei in den Westhügeln
Free in the west hills
Frei in den Westhügeln
She's got two full-grown children, one still on the vine
Sie hat zwei erwachsene Kinder, eines hängt noch am Weinstock
And once I got to know him I loved him like he was mine
Und als ich ihn kennenlernte, liebte ich ihn, als wäre er mein eigener
Some nights we drive up the mouth of the canyon
Manche Nächte fahren wir den Mund des Canyons hinauf
On hillbilly heroin pills
Auf Hillbilly-Heroin-Pillen
We get out and watch the sunset
Wir steigen aus und schauen uns den Sonnenuntergang an
Peaceful and still
Friedlich und still
Free in the west hills
Frei in den Westhügeln
Free in the west hills
Frei in den Westhügeln
When the sheriff kicked my door down
Als der Sheriff meine Tür eintrat
I was sleeping in my own bed
Schlief ich in meinem eigenen Bett
And the mess I got caught up in
Und das Durcheinander, in das ich geraten bin
Rained hard down on my head
Prasselte hart auf meinen Kopf nieder
And they got me for possession of them hillbilly heroin pills
Und sie haben mich wegen Besitzes dieser Hillbilly-Heroin-Pillen erwischt
Enough to kill the horses that run free in the west hills
Genug, um die Pferde zu töten, die frei in den Westhügeln laufen
They got me for possession of enough to kill the horses that run
Sie haben mich wegen Besitzes genug erwischt, um die Pferde zu töten, die laufen
Free in the west hills
Frei in den Westhügeln
Free in the west hills
Frei in den Westhügeln
If this life was meant for proving
Wenn dieses Leben dazu bestimmt war, etwas zu beweisen
I could use more years to live
Könnte ich mehr Jahre zum Leben gebrauchen
But fifteen in a guardhouse
Aber fünfzehn in einem Wachhaus
That's more than I'm willing to give
Das ist mehr, als ich bereit bin zu geben
And if there really is a judgement
Und wenn es wirklich ein Urteil gibt
When He pulls my chart
Wenn Er meine Akte zieht
He'll reject my actions
Wird er meine Taten ablehnen
But He will know my heart
Aber er wird mein Herz kennen
And he'll prepare a place for me
Und er wird einen Ort für mich vorbereiten
Where happiness instills
Wo das Glück sich einstellt
And the light puts its loving hands on my head
Und das Licht legt seine liebevollen Hände auf meinen Kopf
Free in the west hills
Frei in den Westhügeln
They got me for possession of enough to kill the horses that run
Sie haben mich wegen Besitzes genug erwischt, um die Pferde zu töten, die laufen
Free in the west hills
Frei in den Westhügeln
Free in the west hills
Frei in den Westhügeln
Free, free in the west hills, in the west hills, in the west hills, hills
Frei, frei in den Westhügeln, in den Westhügeln, in den Westhügeln, Hügeln

(Hum, eu, eu estou ocupado, John, você vai ter que esperar)
(Uh, my little brother he moved into the community)
(Hum, meu irmãozinho se mudou para a comunidade)
(And they tried to tape him to a flag pole or a tree up at the high school)
(E eles tentaram amarrá-lo a um poste de bandeira ou a uma árvore na escola)
(So if you don't fit their mold)
(Então, se você não se encaixa no molde deles)
(It's just a nice small community, everybody knows everybody)
(É apenas uma pequena comunidade agradável, todo mundo conhece todo mundo)
(Good place to live and to raise kids)

(We'll be here forever so, yeah, it's a good area)
(Ficaremos aqui para sempre, então, sim, é uma boa área)
I was born right here in Zion, God's own son
Eu nasci bem aqui em Sião, filho de Deus
His Holy Ghost stories and bloodshed never scared me none
Suas histórias do Espírito Santo e derramamento de sangue nunca me assustaram
While they bowed their heads on Sunday
Enquanto eles baixavam a cabeça no domingo
I cut out through the hedges and fields
Eu saía pelos arbustos e campos
Where the light could place its hands on my head
Onde a luz poderia colocar suas mãos na minha cabeça
In the west hills
Nas colinas do oeste
Free in the west hills
Livre nas colinas do oeste
Free in the west hills
Livre nas colinas do oeste
She's got two full-grown children, one still on the vine
Ela tem dois filhos adultos, um ainda na videira
And once I got to know him I loved him like he was mine
E uma vez que eu o conheci, amei-o como se fosse meu
Some nights we drive up the mouth of the canyon
Algumas noites nós dirigimos até a boca do cânion
On hillbilly heroin pills
Em comprimidos de heroína caipira
We get out and watch the sunset
Nós saímos e assistimos o pôr do sol
Peaceful and still
Pacífico e imóvel
Free in the west hills
Livre nas colinas do oeste
Free in the west hills
Livre nas colinas do oeste
When the sheriff kicked my door down
Quando o xerife chutou minha porta
I was sleeping in my own bed
Eu estava dormindo na minha própria cama
And the mess I got caught up in
E a bagunça em que me meti
Rained hard down on my head
Choveu forte na minha cabeça
And they got me for possession of them hillbilly heroin pills
E eles me pegaram por posse de comprimidos de heroína caipira
Enough to kill the horses that run free in the west hills
O suficiente para matar os cavalos que correm livres nas colinas do oeste
They got me for possession of enough to kill the horses that run

If this life was meant for proving
Se esta vida foi feita para provar
I could use more years to live
Eu poderia usar mais anos para viver
But fifteen in a guardhouse
Mas quinze em uma casa de guarda
That's more than I'm willing to give
Isso é mais do que estou disposto a dar
And if there really is a judgement
E se realmente houver um julgamento
When He pulls my chart
Quando Ele puxar meu gráfico
He'll reject my actions
Ele rejeitará minhas ações
But He will know my heart
Mas Ele conhecerá meu coração
And he'll prepare a place for me
E ele preparará um lugar para mim
Where happiness instills
Onde a felicidade instila
And the light puts its loving hands on my head
E a luz coloca suas mãos amorosas na minha cabeça
Free in the west hills
Livre nas colinas do oeste
They got me for possession of enough to kill the horses that run

I was born right here in Zion, God's own son

His Holy Ghost stories and bloodshed never scared me none
Le sue storie di Santo Spirito e spargimenti di sangue non mi hanno mai spaventato
While they bowed their heads on Sunday
Mentre inchinavano la testa la domenica
I cut out through the hedges and fields
Mi sono allontanato attraverso le siepi e i campi
