拷问灵魂——《Tell Me Why》
周二啦,来听《Tell Me Why》。
今天是心情有点波动的一天,具体说来,就是类似于喜欢自己的人突然去喜欢别人了的那种失落感,即使你并不喜欢TA,但当TA真的放弃你的时候,还是忍不住要难受一下。
不过也不算坏事吧,走入坟墓之前,每件事的好坏都说不准,噢,难怪有个词叫“盖棺定论”,确实是只有盖了棺,才能下定论。所以啊,不纠结了,有这闲工夫还不如憧憬一下即将到来的端午假期。
《Tell Me Why》来自于英国少年奇才Declan Galbraith,唱这首歌的时候他甚至不到11岁,无愧于奇才称号啊。这首歌是以孩童视角质问人类的种种恶行,歌词非常发人深省。
歌词如下:
In my dream,
children sing a song of love for every boy and girl .
The sky is blue and fields are green
and laughter is the language of the world.
Then I wake and all I see is a world full of people in need.
Tell me why(why),
does it have to be like this?
Tell me why(why),
is there something I have missed?
Tell me why(why),
cos' I don't understand,
when so many need somebody,
we don't give a helping hand.
Tell me why?
Every day, I ask myself,
what will I have to do to be a man?
Do I have to stand and fight,
to prove to everybody who I am?
Is that what my life is for,
to waste in a world full of war?
(repeat)
just tell me why!
(repeat)
Tell me why?
(Why,why,does the tiger run)
Tell me why?
(Why,why,do we shoot the gun)
Tell me why?
(Why,why,do we never learn)
Can someone tell us why we let the forest burn?
(Why,why,do we said we care)
Tell me why?
(Why,why,do we stand and stare)
Tell me why?
(why, why, do the dolphins cry)
Can someone tell us why we let the ocean die?
(Why,why,if we're all the same)
Tell me why?
(Why,why,do we pass the blame)
Tell me why?
(Why,why,does it never end)
Can someone tell us why we can not just be friends?
Why,why,(do we close our eyes)
Why,why,(do the greedy life)
Why,why,(do we fight for land)
Can someone tell us why we don't understand?
Why,why?!
