单人房,双人床

Posted in Music, 中文 by Andy

And one of my all time favorite -

也许你的爱是双人床
说不定谁都可以陪你流浪
你的目光锁在某个地方
你的倔强是一道墙内心不开放

也许你的心是单人房
多了一个人就会显得紧张
想看看你最初的模样
你脱下来的伪装你会怎么放

别说还有感觉
你我都知道我们只能忠于直觉
正因为欠缺所以总不懂拒绝
但又不再愿意为对方妥协

别说还有感觉
你我都知道拥抱不代表亲切
可能是害怕被拒绝不敢直接
还是我们在等下一次的机会
同样皱著眉却有不同的滋味

也许你的心是单人房
但你的欲望却是一张双人床
想看看你真实的模样
你收起来的忧伤你把它怎么放

别说还有感觉
你我都知道我们只能忠于直觉
正因为欠缺所以总不懂拒绝
但又不再愿意为对方妥协

别说还有感觉
你我都知道拥抱不代表亲切
可能是害怕被拒绝不敢直接
还是我们在等下一次的机会
同样皱著眉却有不同的滋味

别说还有感觉
你我都知道我们只能忠于直觉
正因为欠缺所以总不懂拒绝
但又不再愿意为对方妥协

别说还有感觉
你我都知道拥抱不代表亲切
可能是害怕被拒绝不敢直接
还是我们在等下一次的机会
同样皱著眉却有不同的滋味
同样皱著眉各有孤单的体会

The End.

Nobody’s Home

Posted in Music by Andy

I remember back when Yuming and I were still in our master’s program, he used to have Avril Lavigne’s photo as his desktop background. I didn’t really get it since I didn’t like her music at all. Well, it’s funny how things turn around, recently I’ve been biking with my iPod and Avril’s album happens to be in my workout playlist. So I’ve been listening to her songs for almost a month now, day after day.

And I actually like it a lot.

So here’s one of my favorite songs, called Nobody’s Home.

I couldn’t tell you
Why she felt that way
She felt it everyday
And I couldn’t help her
I just watched her make
The same mistakes again

What’s wrong, What’s wrong now?
Too many, too many problems
Don’t know where she belongs
Where she belongs

Chorus:
She wants to go home
But nobody’s home
It’s where she lies
Broken inside
With no place to go
No place to go
To dry her eyes
Broken inside

Open your eyes
And look outside
Find the reasons why
You’ve been rejected, and
Now you can’t find
What you’ve left behind

Be strong, be strong now
Too many, too many problems
Don’t know where she belongs
Where she belongs

Chorus
She wants to go home
But nobody’s home
That’s where she lies
Broken inside
With no place to go
No place to go
To dry her eyes
Broken inside

Her feelings she hides
Her dreams she can’t find
She’s losing her mind
She’s falling behind
She can’t find her place
She’s losing her faith
She’s falling from grace
She’s all over the place, yeah

Chorus
She wants to go home
But nobody’s home
It’s where she lies
Broken inside
With no place to go
No place to go
To dry her eyes
Broken inside
she’s lost inside, lost inside
oh oh
she’s lost inside, lost inside
oh oh oh

The End.

Imagine

Posted in Music by Andy

Imagine – John Lennon

Imagine there’s no heaven,
It’s easy if you try,
No hell below us,
Above us only sky,
Imagine all the people
living for today…

Imagine there’s no countries,
It isn’t hard to do,
Nothing to kill or die for,
No religion too,
Imagine all the people
living life in peace…

Imagine no possessions,
I wonder if you can,
No need for greed or hunger,
A brotherhood of man,
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world…

You may say I’m a dreamer,
but I’m not the only one,
I hope some day you’ll join us,
And the world will live as one.

When I first heard this song, I had this sensation of flying over a world of wheat field, so relaxed yet cannot see where I am going. Later on when I looked up the lyrics, I just realized it’s a hippie song. Make sense though, from John Lennon, probably written in the 60-70s, or maybe even for one of the anti-war movements…

Oh well, I know what you are gonna tell me, but it’s a nice song…
