迷妹A

線下生活一團糟，自然也沒時間與靈感更新。但聽到rex orange county新歌瞬間有種「啊這根本是我」之感，所以便決定把自己從泥弄中拔起，好逮更新一下部落格。Rex orange county本名Alex O’Connor，2018年BBC之聲獲獎人之一。早在18年時，就很愛他的UNO。歌詞不外乎都是二十幾歲的瑣碎事件，關於愛情的快樂又或者對於生活的迷莽。內容不至於沈鬱，剛好份量的反思與自嘲讓他的歌貼近我心（欸。雖然Alex取回他對生活的掌控了，但是我還沒有，所以就暫且讓我大聲的唱著"I had a year that nearly sent me off the edge I feel like a five, I can't pretend"吧。

如果對Alex有興趣，樂手巢寫了一篇不錯的介紹，歡迎大家去看，一起加入雷克斯橘郡的行列吧 二十歲的漫情歌，英倫陽光男孩Rex Orange County。

[Verse 1]
I had to think about my oldest friends
想起認識最久的友人們
Now, I no longer hang with them
但現在已不再和他們一起廝混
And I can't wait to be home again
我迫不及待想回家
I had a year that nearly sent me off the edge
過去這一年實在將我逼到極限
I feel like a five, I can't pretend
無法逞強，我覺得我只值5分
But if I get my shit together this year
如果幾年我重新振作起來
Maybe I'll be a ten
或許我就可以成為10分了吧

[Pre-Chorus]
Help myself a little better
讓我自己覺得更好些
'Cause it's getting tirin'
這一切開始使我疲倦
And I can't wait for the summer
我是如此希望夏天的到來
Now, I'm gonna need a moment
但現在我需要一點時間

[Chorus]
I did it again, I did it again
我重道覆轍 又做了相同的事
No control over my emotions
對於我的情緒毫無掌控
One year on and I still can't focus
過了一年，我仍無法專注
I did it again, yeah
重到覆轍
I did it, I did it again
我重道覆轍 又做了相同的事
Twelve rounds in, fightin' solo
十二輪過去，仍單打獨鬥
But nobody wins when it ends
但終局之時，並沒有人贏

[Verse 2]
We'll be placin' memories in frames
我們將回憶安置於相框內
Invitin' people 'round to stay
邀請友人們前來作客
And always owning up to things, to things
承擔過往的過錯
'Cause, after all, I guess it all depends upon
我猜到頭來這一切都和
The people you choose and where you're from
我們從何而來和選擇的朋友有關吧
If so, I've been so lucky, so far, it's outrageous
如果真是如此，截至目前為止，我是如此的幸運
I won't complain (No)
我不會抱怨的

[Pre-Chorus]
I'll give myself a little credit
我也有些功勞
Since I dealt with all the pain
因為是我捱過所有苦痛
Yeah, I turned superhero
我變成了超級英雄
I'm comin' in Bruce Wayne
我成為了布魯斯偉恩

[Chorus]
Yeah, I did it again, I did it again
我重道覆轍 又做了相同的事
But this time I took control
但這次我取回控制權
And turned my shit 'round
將一切控制妥當
Sometimes you gotta cut a bitch out
有時你需要放手
I'm livin' again, yeah
我已重生，繼續活著
I'm livin', I'm livin' again (Yeah-ah, woah, yeah)
繼續活著

[Bridge]
Na na-na-na na, na, na, na
Na na-na, na, na-na, na, na
Na-na, na-na-na-na, na, na-na-na, na

[Outro]
Now, I'm safe and sound where I belong
我安然地在現在所屬之地活著
It took all my strength to carry on
花了所有氣力才能繼續向前
And though it's still hard work to find the words
雖然找到是恰語彙描述過往依舊困難
I'm still gonna write this fuckin' song
但我仍要完成這首歌
'Cause, after all, I guess it all depends upon
我猜到頭來這一切都和
The people you choose and where you're from
我們從何而來和選擇的朋友有關吧
