求你再帮我想想死因——《50 Ways To Say Goodbye》
今天推荐《50 Ways To Say Goodbye》。
如果光听歌而不看歌词的话,你根本不会想到这是一首唱分手的歌,旋律实在是太不按常理出牌了嘛,但事实上歌词真的是在讲述一个人分手之后的痛苦与留恋,以及渴望复合的卑微。
这首歌来自美国流行摇滚乐队Train,歌中主角不愿承认分手,对他人提起前女友时都会编造各种死亡借口,所以这首歌被大家戏称为“前女友的50种死法”,别说,还真挺贴切。
乍一听会觉得这是个渣男,极品前任,怎么能到处跟人说前女友死了呢?但听下来才明白,还是爱得太深太卑微,宁愿欺骗自己是死亡造成的分手。这样看来,分手还能做朋友的,或许都是因为不再爱了。
歌词如下:
My heart is paralyzed
My head was oversized
I'll take the high road like I should
You said it's meant to be
That it's not you, it's me
You're leaving now for my own good
That's cool, but if my friends ask where you are I'm gonna say
She went down in an airplane
Fried getting suntan
Fell in a cement mixer full of quicksand
Help me, help me,
I'm no good at goodbyes!
She met a shark under water
Fell and no one caught her
I returned everything I ever bought her
Help me, help me,
I'm all out of lies
And ways to say you died
My pride still feels the sting
You were my everything
Some day I'll find a love like yours
(a love like yours)
She'll think I'm Superman
Not super minivan
How could you leave on Yom Kippur?
That's cool, but if my friends ask where you are I'm gonna say
She was caught in a mudslide
Eaten by a lion
Got run over by a crappy purple Scion
Help me, help me,
I'm no good at goodbyes!
She dried up in the desert
Drown in a hot tub
Danced to death at an east side night club
Help me, help me,
I'm all out of lies
And ways to say you died
I wanna live a thousand lives with you
I wanna be the one you're dying to love
but you don't want to
That's cool, but if my friends ask where you are I'm gonna say
That's cool, but if my friends ask where you are I'm gonna say
She went down in an airplane
Fried getting suntan
Fell in a cement mixer full of quicksand
Help me, help me,
I'm no good at goodbyes!
She met a shark under water
Fell and no one caught her
I returned everything I ever bought her
Help me, help me,
I'm all out of lies
She was caught in a mudslide
Eaten by a lion
Got run over by a crappy purple Scion
Help me, help me,
I'm no good at goodbyes!
She dried up in the desert
Drown in a hot tub
Danced to death at an east side night club
Help me, help me,
I'm all out of lies
And ways to say you died
