Numb - Linkin Park
I'm tired of being what you want me to be
厭倦了做你心目中的我
Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface
感到毫無自信,迷失在虛偽裡
Don't know what you're expecting of me
無法明白你對我的期望
Put under the pressure, of walking in your shoes
而在你的處境下我充滿壓力
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
逆流而上吧,就逆流而上吧
Every step I take is another mistake to you
我所踏出的每一步,對你而言都是個錯誤
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
逆流而上吧,就逆流而上吧
I've become so numb, I can't feel you there
我已然麻木,感受不到你
I've become so tired, so much more aware
瞭解到太多,我已然疲倦
I've becoming this, all I want to do
我將邁向這個境地,所有我想做的
Is be more like me and be less like you
都另我更像自己且更遠離你
Can't you see that you're smothering me?
你知道你正令我窒息
Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control
你抱得太緊,怕不能約束我
Cause everything that you thought I would be
畢竟一切你認為我該做的
Has fallen apart, right in front of you
都在你面前破碎了
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
逆流而上吧,就逆流而上吧
Every step I take is another mistake to you
我所踏出的每一步,對你而言都是個錯誤
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
逆流而上吧,就逆流而上吧
And every second I waste is more than I can take
而我浪費的每一秒都超出我所能接受的
I've become so numb, I can't feel you there
我已然麻木,感受不到你
I've become so tired, so much more aware
瞭解到太多,我已然疲倦
I've becoming this, all I want to do
我將邁向這個境地,所有我想做的
Is be more like me and be less like you
都另我更像自己且更遠離你
And I know I may end up failing too
而我明瞭我終將絕望
But I know, you were just like me
但我清楚,你就如我一般
With someone disappointed in you
擁有他人予你的失望
Goin' Where The Wind Blows - Mr. Big
Someone said life is for the taking Here I am with my hand out
waiting for a ride
I've been living on my great expectations
What good is it when I'm stranded here
And the world just passes by?
Where are the signs to help me getout of this place If I should stumble on my moment in time, how will I know?
If the story's written on my face, does it show?
Am I strong enough to walk on water?
Smart enough to come in out of the rain?
Or am I a fool going where the wind blows
Here I sit halfway to somewhere
Thinking about what's in front of me
And what I left behind
On my own, supposed to be so easy
Is this what I've seen after
Or have I lost my mind?
Maybe this is my big chance coming to take me away, yeah
If I should stumble on my moment in time, how will I know?
If the story's written on my face, does it show?
Am I strong enough to walk on water?
Smart enough to come inout of the rain?
Or am I a fool going where the wind blows?
Here I am walking naked thrown the world
Taking up space, society's child
Make room for me, make room for mem, make room for me
Am I strong enough to walk on water?
Smart enough to come inout of the rain?
Or am I a fool going where the wind blows?
Where the wind blows, yeah, yeah
Going where the wind blows, yeah

在輕狂的高中時期,玩玩吉他搞搞樂團好像成了每個年輕人必備的興趣,我也不例外。
看著吉他社的同學在練習,偶而也偷拿他們的琴來練練,雖然稱不上專業,至少懂了一些皮毛。除了彈,聽一些經典樂團的音樂來耳濡目染更能了解搖滾樂的精神及靈魂,諸如Guns & Roses、Bunjovy、Oasis、Aerosmith...,然而,最讓我這外行感到舒服的樂團,莫過Mr. Big。
To Be With You 這家喻戶曉的一首歌就不用多說了,這首Goin Where The Wind Blows除了輕快的民吉旋律吸引我之外,主唱隨興的嗓音配上灑脫的歌詞,一聽就愛上,即使到現在,經過六七年了,聽到這首歌那種從心底感覺到的共鳴、爽快程度,完全不會因為時間而消彌,百聽不膩,這一輩子能找到這樣一首歌,還有甚麼話說?
