我想问下,Arcade Fire的Ready to start是为了表达什么?即Businessmen drink my blood...
我想问下,Arcade Fire的Ready to start是为了表达什么?即Businessmen drink my blood...
这个问题很复杂,因为廊火的词写得太含蓄了
就整张专辑来说,是廊火成长经历,生活片段的写照
这首ready to start应该是表达对现实商业社会的不满,对人与人之间的冷漠关系的指责
个人认为还有希望能打破束缚,准备好面对一切的勇气
另附歌词
If the businessmen drink my blood
Like the kids in art school said they would
Then I guess I'll just begin again
You say, "can we still be friends?"
If I was scared... I would
And if I was bored... you know I would
And if I was yours... but I'm not
All the kids have always known
That the emperor wears no clothes
But they bow to down to him anyway
It's better than being alone
If I was scared... I would
And if I was bored... you know I would
And if I was yours... but I'm not
Now you're knocking at my door
Saying please come out against the night
But I would rather be alone
Than pretend I feel alright
If the businessmen drink my blood
Like the kids in art school said they would
Then I guess I'll just begin again
You say, "can we still be friends?"
If I was scared... I would
And if I was pure... you know I would
And if I was yours... but I'm not
Now I'm ready to start
If I was scared... I would
And if I was pure... you know I would
And if I was yours... but I'm not
Now I'm ready to start
Now I'm ready to start
I would rather be wrong
Than live in the shadows of your song
My mind is open wide
And now I'm ready to start
Now I'm ready to start
My mind is open wide
And now I'm ready to start
And I'm sure you opened the door
To step out into the dark
Now I'm ready
