James – Say Something


對法學院生活已經感到厭倦

上課的時候往往整個人出神似的發呆

偶而一抬頭

看著眾人專注的神情

心中就會想著人生大道理


現在的苦是爲了未來做準備


but

套句隱地喜歡說的話

碩博滿街

人們汲汲營營的展現自己的長才

鄙視著像我這樣的學生

不應該說是學生

根本不夠格稱做是法學院學生

我總自我安慰式地想著

以後當上律師 坐辦公室

每天忙著賺那一個月十來萬的薪水

and then?


總覺得

很多人的心靈都很貧乏

有時

從眼神中 那空洞 冷漠 無情的眼神

少了光芒 卻又很自我的高談擴論 炫燿式的賣弄法學知識

在課堂上展現自己的機智邏輯反應推理思考能力

and then?


究竟他馬的學法律是要幫助人還是要賺錢爭那社會地位

我想關在law school building的人大概都沒想清楚吧


也許吧

人有了地位

才能夠出頭做大事

但我懷疑 也納悶著 這些人會有熱血嗎?


太多太多的問號

也許纏繞著我一輩子

我也不會理解


最近瘋狂的看雜書

一大堆雜書 很饑渴式的閱讀 像是要把所有非法律類的書全部吞食下去的感覺


總覺得

這世界如此的寬廣

大家在驕傲些什麼?


我這樣謾罵著

也許看在那些高知識菁英份子眼中

只是靠北式的無病呻吟

他們會幫我找藉口

自己功課不夠好 推卸到其他人太努力 

你們努力充其量也只是可笑的法將

我沒像你們那麼用功


我願意奉獻自己所知道的 毫無保留幫助人的熱情

是你們所沒有的


我發洩完了

聽歌吧~

presentation, oral argument, seminar final draft, exam, exam

fuck up!


James – Say Something

一首我高中就超愛的歌曲 前一陣子買到了二手單曲

This song is truly a masterpiece, but the remixes truly suck!


Lyrics:

You are as tight as a hunter’s trap

Hidden well, what are you concealing?

Poker face, carved in stone

Amongst friends, but all alone

Why do you hide?


Say something, say something, anything

I’ve shown you everything

Give me a sign

Say something, say something, anything

Your silence is deafening

Pay me in kind


Take a drug to set you free

Strange fruit from a forbidden tree

You’ve got to come down soon

More than a drug is what I need

Need a change of scenery

Need a new life


Say something, say something, anything

I’ve shown you everything

Give me a sign

Say something, say something, anything

Your silence is deafening

Pay me in kind


Say something


I am open wide, open wondering

Have you swallowed everything?

Pay me in kind

這張照片大概是網路上比較容易取得的jAMES照片之一,事實上他們的照片粉難找,我所以也用過這張照片。有趣的是裡面Saul Davies的表情(最左邊的那個),一副沒睡飽雙眼無神的臉,讓我想到馬瓜也是用這樣的表情聽著教授講古嗎?

提到Say Something就樣我想到jAMES另外一首歌,幾乎是這首歌精神反射。Wah-Wah裡面的Say Say Something,六分鐘的前衛迷幻,沒有唱出任何一句歌詞,有人說那根本是Brian Eno的歌曲,但是我覺得他們已經說出了某些東西了。

也許你不需要Say Something,也許你嘗試著告訴我們的Something不用透過哪麼多文字。馬瓜加油!cheers!

This probably speaks a little of how you feel... hope you still remember what a beautiful heart that you once had if you got the chance to taste the beauty of the power.

James - Really Hard (One Man Clapping)

To be loving when the knives are out
Takes much courage and a mind without doubt
I`m just some robot, wind up the clockwork jerk
Trying to impress is the nature of my work

And it`s so hard to remain open
If it`s true, it can`t be spoken

Really hard
Really hard

Rhetoriticians think they`re running this show
Words as power is all they`ll ever know
I`m just some reflex, when struck, the knee will jerk
Trying to impress is the nature of our work

And it`s so hard to remain open
If you bend, you won`t get broken

Really hard
Really hard

Wake up from this dreaming state
A long scream out, it`s not too late
I am dying to begin
I am dying to begin again

Really hard
Really hard

to 海德,
感謝補充,快寫吧!
大家都在等你的jAMES大全集!

to ada,
Many thanks for your sharing and comment.
I will keep your words in mind, and hope in the near future I could do my best to help people in need.

I don't care about power; for me power means evil, so does idolatry. I want to be a modest and passionate person.......

這首歌..我很喜歡心情不好時在死拼拜託迪傑放
閉著眼睛聽著跳舞,感覺就釋放了很多東西
不過james的很多歌對我都有這種功用..Sit Down,Tomorrow

很喜歡你說的那句話:
感覺就釋放了很多東西

你所說的Sit Down, Tomorrow我也都很喜歡喔!
但也許就好像小雞剛出生認母親一樣的道理,Say Something對我來說有著相當的情意節存在著!

歡迎多來玩一同分享想法~
