歌词充满人生阅历,可惜曲调无法入戏
看到“folks”这个词,总是会不自觉地顺手点进去。
听不完一首《Harder to Forgive》,原谅自己对它产生了误解。非我一贯喜欢的“New Folk” —— 那种北欧乐团比较擅长的Dark Wave风格。
如此明快的旋律,更适合哼着小调走在约会的路上听,而歌词却如同参悟了人生的悲欢离合,还保佑一份寡淡缘的随遇而安。
脑海里转过几个念头,如果用石进的钢琴曲风弹奏会不会更好?如果用唱诗班和声会不会更有感觉?
最终,都随风而散。
静不下来,入戏远比讨厌更难。
I love the songs I hated when I was young 渐渐开始欣赏年少时讨厌的歌曲 Because they take me back where I come from 因为它总能带我回到从前 When every broken heart seemed like the end 特别是当心碎似永无止境 When everyone was someone different then 当自己变得陌生冰冷 But I can't be alone in a crowded room 无法做到身处闹市也心如止水时 Where my thoughts, they run like water down a flume 思绪如泉水般奔涌而出 There are days when I will let the darkness rise 我倾向于在黑暗中沉思 I don't always choose to stay on the sunny side 而不是艳阳高照的地方 Sometimes I pretend we never met (ooh) 有时我假装我们从未相遇过 Because it's harder to forgive than to forget 因为宽恕远比遗忘难得多 Sometimes it's harder to forgive 原谅一个人太过困难 Yes, my life has seen some wasted time 而我已经浪费了太多的时光 I have suffered for the peace inside my mind 我现在已经心如止水 And some things are better left unsaid 有些事或应看破不说破 While some things work out different when they're in your head 当事情发展出离意料 But I'm not sorry for the things I say 我也不会后悔 Sometimes I let my mouth just run away 有时我选择顺其自然 And I believe that all souls are born kind 因为我相信人性本善 And that all love lost comes back in time 善意终将回归 Sometimes I pretend we never met (ooh) 有时我假装我们从未相遇过 Because it's harder to forgive than to forget 因为宽恕远比遗忘难得多 Sometimes it's harder to forgive 原谅一个人太过困难 And even if the world is really round 即便世界其实是圆的 And all the maps are painted upside down 即便所有的地图都是颠倒绘制的 So if you stand in one place for too long 若你站在原地太久 Everything around you will be gone 周遭事物自会改变 Well, I'm not gonna miss you when I'm gone 我既离开便不再去想你 Now the part of me that's left wants you to know 现在我希望你明白 That I'm not gonna jump towards the light 我不会直接奔向光亮 The ones who believe choose life 我渴望过自己选择的生活 Ooh, ooh 噢,噢
