Simple Plan的新歌《When I'm Gone》,旋律沒以往動聽,節奏感和活力仍然強烈。
唯獨是無甚驚喜的歌詞,乍聽下反而有點像是寫給悲情城市似的,感覺過癮。
(不過我的政治和時事觸覺一向都很鈍,未知會否錯誤地「聽者有意」。如有理解上bold錯了歌詞的地方,有請指正。=))
其實哪有地方沒慘事?一天到晚挾著「悲情」之名呱呱嘈,最終又淪為亂黨生事。要化解悲情,應由自己做起。
Simple Plan - When I'm Gone
But all I seem to see
Is people going nowhere
Expecting sympathy
It's like we're going through the motions
Of the scripted destiny
Tell me where's our inspiration
If life won't wait
I guess it's up to me
[Chorus]
Whoahh
No we're not gonna waste another moment in this town
Whoahh
We won't come back, the world is calling out
Whoahh
Leave the past in the past, gonna find the future
Misery loves company
Well so long
You'll miss me when I'm gone
You're gonna miss me when I’m gone
Procrastination running circles in my head
While you sit there contemplating
You’ll wind up left for dead
Life is what happens
While you're busy making your excuses
Another day, another casualty
But that won't happen to me
[Chorus]
You're gonna miss me when I’m gone
When I’m gone
Let's go
I Won't look back
When I say goodbye
We're gonna leave this world behind me
Gonna take what's mine tonight
'Cause every wasted day
Becomes a wasted chance
You're gonna wake up feeling sorry
'Cause life won't wait
I guess it's up to you
[Chorus]
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone...
