查爾斯·凱利 ( Charles Kelley ) 正在分享他對酒精的告別信。
 
On Dec. 23, the Lady A singer released a new song detailing his struggle with addiction. Titled "As Far As You Could," the personal track is a ballad about the country singer's public decision to stop drinking and begin treatment.
12 月 23 日，Lady A歌手發(fā)行了一首新歌，詳細描述了他與毒癮的斗爭。這首個人曲目名為“As Far As You Could”，是一首民謠，講述了這位鄉(xiāng)村歌手公開決定戒酒并開始接受治療的故事。
 
"For me, the biggest word I've been holding on to is gratitude, not pride," Charles said in a press release. "I'm grateful. I finally see the light and am connecting with what life is all about."
“對我來說，我一直堅持的最重要的詞是感激，而不是驕傲，”查爾斯在一份新聞稿中說。“我很感激。我終于看到了光明，并與生活的意義聯(lián)系在一起。”
 
"Some days are hard, but the good so outweighs those bad moments," the 41-year-old Georgia native continued. "There's some beauty in all this and I've had time to reflect, time to get healthy, time to write. I've probably written 50 songs this fall, and I feel like all of it was leading to this one song."
“有些日子很艱難，但好事勝過那些糟糕的時刻，”這位 41 歲的佐治亞州本地人繼續(xù)說道。“這一切都有一些美，我有時間反思，有時間恢復健康，有時間寫作。今年秋天我可能寫了 50 首歌，我覺得所有這些都導致了這首歌。”
 
Co-written and produced alongside Lady A bandmate Dave Haywood and Jimmy Robbin, the song includes a reflective chorus where Charles sings about putting an end to a not-so-healthy habit.
這首歌與 Lady A 的樂隊成員戴夫·海伍德和吉米·羅賓共同創(chuàng)作并制作，包括一段反省的合唱，查爾斯在其中唱著要結束一個不太健康的習慣。 "'Cause you took me high, but you sure as hell brought me down / We said goodbye, but I'm gonna see you around," he sings. "And to tell the truth, I thought I never would / But it's time I finally put you down for good / 'Cause you've taken me as far as you could."
“因為你讓我興奮，但你確實讓我失望了/我們說了再見，但我會再見，”他唱道。“說實話，我以為我永遠不會/但現在是我終于永遠放下你的時候了/因為你已經盡可能地帶我走了。”
 
According to Charles, the song—like his journey to sobriety—has the full support of Lady A.
據查爾斯說，這首歌——就像他的清醒之旅一樣——得到了 A 女士的全力支持。 "We were almost afraid that if we put a bunch of vocals on it, that might take away from the pain and authenticity of that singular vocal," he said. "Hillary [Scott] especially felt it was important for me to tell my story…With their blessing, I'm putting this out, but it will live right alongside everything else we do."
“我們幾乎擔心如果我們在上面放一堆人聲，那可能會消除那種單一人聲的痛苦和真實性，”他說。“希拉里[斯科特] 特別覺得講述我的故事對我來說很重要......在他們的祝福下，我將把它放出來，但它將與我們所做的一切一起生活。”
 
Back in August, Lady A announced they were postponing their Request Line Tour so Charles can focus on his sobriety.
早在 8 月，Lady A 宣布他們將推遲 他們的 Request Line Tour，以便 Charles 可以專注于他的清醒。

Soon after, Charles would thank his band and fans for their support. "Getting on that stage and being able to see, hear and feel everything through a clearer lens is going to be a gift that I won't take for granted," he said Aug. 12. "I'm grateful for this time to focus on my family and my health."
不久之后，查爾斯感謝他的樂隊和歌迷的支持。他在 8 月 12 日說： “登上那個舞臺，能夠通過更清晰的鏡頭看到、聽到和感覺到一切，這將是我不會認為理所當然的禮物。 ” “我很感激這段時間能專注于我的家人和我的健康。”
