第一是lovestory 你是罗密欧我是朱丽叶

有没有虚拟语气，捂腋为数不多能听的下去的

6. my tears ricochet我的眼泪弹射
这首歌中有我交最自然最优美的从bridge到chorus的转换。而故事本身则是来自三角恋中一个亖人的视角，他的前任戴着他给她的珠宝出席葬礼并埋葬他，但显然他们的故事并不会在此终结。当然也有人说这是关于我交和大机器的，但这么一弄就很俗了
I didn't have it in myself to go with grace
And you're the hero flying around, saving face
And if I'm dead to you, why are you at the wake?
Cursing my name, wishing I stayed Look at how my tears ricochet
男主不想简单的和女主体面分手，但女主所做的只是控制这个丑闻。男主发出质问，如果我对于你已经死了，你为什么还要来吊唁，说着我为什么会死，为什么不留下
We gather stones, never knowing what they'll mean
Some to throw, some to make a diamond ring
people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones是一个谚语，指的是当我们自己也有毛病的时候也不要说别人。我交把这个stones分为了两种，一种是互相伤害的，一种是作为爱情信物的，来表示这段感情的爱恨交织
And I can go anywhere I want Anywhere I want, just not home
And you can aim for my heart, go for blood But you would still miss me in your bones
And I still talk to you (When I'm screaming at the sky)
And when you can't sleep at night (You hear my stolen lullabies)
男主随波逐流到处征战，无法回家又无家可归。女主可以随意践踏男主的爱，但男主也知道她永远也摆脱不掉这份感情。他们会在风中交流，梦中相见。虽然stolen lullabies真的可以解释成大机器偷了我交的歌，但为什么不能理解成女主可以听到男主的催眠曲呢
And so the battleships will sink beneath the waves
You had to kill me, but it killed you just the same
You turned into your worst fears
And you're tossing out blame, drunk on this pain
Crossing out the good years
最后的chorus是点睛之笔。男主无法快刀斩乱麻，所以战舰就全部沉默了；女主可以任意抹杀这份感情，但同时她也在杀死自己。女主在逐渐变成自己最深的恐惧，推卸自己的责任却深陷痛苦，不断的否认过去的好时光却永远恨男主为什么不留下

@三界天尊ALICIA 该加精了

好美

5. Cornelia Street 爱你罗西
这是一首很神奇的歌，它有着浓浓的小妞电影质感，却没有没有太多低俗的桥段和廉价的情感。歌曲中现实与回忆交织，我交在翻修公寓时回忆起发生在这条街的故事，那些人和当时自己的所思所感。听了之后让人想去Cornelia street一探究竟， i mean如果寒假没安排今年也许就可以去
Wewere a fresh page on the desk
Filling in the blanks as we go
As if the street lights pointed in an arrow head
Leading us home
癌人大部分歌曲还是有着相对清新的作词。我交在这里租了一个公寓，和男友每走一步都是给这一页填下新的文字，每一个街灯仿佛都在指着他们回家的路。这种寓情于景也让听众不但感受到了她对未来的乐观与期望，也让我们仿佛感受到了拂面的微风和昏黄的街灯，还有马上就要回家的安全感
And baby, I get mystified by how this city screams your name
And baby, I'm so terrified of if you ever walk away
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
和男友一起填下新篇章的每一个空格的坏处就是这座城市会充满关于他的回忆。在恋爱中，这是美好的，看到任何一个景观都可以想到甜蜜的故事，但我交担心，如果他和其他乘客一样离开了呢
Back when we were card sharks, playing games
I thought you were leading me on
I packed my bags, left Cornelia Street Before you even knew I was gone
But then you called, showed your hand
I turned around before I hit the tunnel Sat on the roof, you and I
我交和男友（脚爱闻）互相试探，扑克牌一定程度上考验的是你对对面玩家的熟悉程度，同时也能看出一个不熟悉的人对于不同情况的反应。我交以为脚爱闻在逗她玩，连夜背包就走了，但脚爱闻一通电话打过来，给我交展示了底牌（用扑克牌比喻爱情我尖在猪肉脸就写过），两个人确认了感情，坐上了屋顶
You hold my hand on the street
Walk me back to that apartment
Years ago, we were just inside
Barefoot in the kitchen
Sacred new beginnings
That became my religion, listen
bridge又回到了过去，感情的开始往往是美好的，我交想要永远的铭记这一个瞬间。歌词里我交总是重复如果我们分了我就再也没法面对这条街了，但good for her，她总能在别处再租一套房

4. coney island 康尼岛
这是我交最美的duet。它比exile多了一些起伏和厚度，比evermore多了一些男女声的沟通与和谐。整首歌是男女声之间跨越时空和生死的对话，他们在讨论同一份感情，但说的话却完全不同，唯一相同的是他们的sense of loss。coney island本身是以游人景点玩乐著称的，雷木竹在off to the races中自称康尼岛女蝗，但这首歌里我们能听到的仿佛是康尼岛的反面，萧条破败，只剩下回忆和悔恨
Break my soul in two looking for you But you're right here
If I can't relate to you anymore Then who am I related to?
And if this is the long haul How'd we get here so soon?
Did I close my fist around something delicate? Did I shatter you?
我交把自己的灵魂分成两半去寻找男的，在这份感情中失去了一部分自我，却没有找到可以弥补这个空缺的东西。我交在想是不是自己逼太紧，反而毁了这份情感
The question pounds my head What's a lifetime of achievement
If I pushed you to the edge But you were too polite to leave me?
And do you miss the rogue Who coaxed you into paradise and left you there?
Will you forgive my soul When you're too wise to trust me and too old to care?
男的想的是成功的一生究竟是怎样，如果他对我交要求太多，我交会不会离开他。这里我交成了那个更年长更智慧的角色，而男的在想自己是否要继续当那个rogue，可以轻松的骗来我交，却没有更多的承诺
The fast times, the bright lights, the merry go
Sorry for not making you my centerfold
The mischief, the gift-wrapped suburban dreams
Sorry for not winning you an arcade ring
Over and over Lost again with no surprises
Disappointments, close your eyes
And it gets colder and colder When the sun goes down
康尼岛终归还是有丰富多彩的一面，炫目的灯光，旋转马车，美丽的礼物。但这一切只让他们感到抱歉，没有给对方更多、更好。一遍又一遍的迷失，在闭眼等待礼物之后得到的只有失望。在太阳落山后，越来越凉，这段爱情仿佛永远在走下坡路
Were you waiting at our old spot In the tree line by the gold clock Did I leave you hanging every single day?
Were you standing in the hallway With a big cake, happy birthday Did I paint your bluest skies the darkest grey?
这是两个人互相辜负的回忆。一个人在老地方等着另一个人却不再出现，一个人过着生日享受蛋糕但另一人去让其兴致全无，曾经美好的回忆已经物是人非。生日蛋糕这里也可能来自于老吉，the moment i know讲的就是老吉没有出现在公交生日，呕吐物也借交爸之口提到了
A universe away
And when I got into the accident The sight that flashed before me was your face
But when I walked up to the podium I think that I forgot to say your name
四个长句和一个a universe away构成了这段比主歌更加伤感的bridge。曾经相爱的两人如今已经咫尺天涯，一方在车祸时，眼前浮现自己的一生中都是另一个人的身影。但另一个人做演讲致谢时却好像（i think）忘记了说另一个人的名字。如果硬要说这里的典故好像公交和某些乘客都互相忘了说互相的名字，而我交和卷人妖好像经历过车祸，卡受好像也有车祸

3. Getaway Car 逃跑车
没有这首歌，声名狼藉就没有存在的必要了。这首歌兼顾了交姐在叙事性，趣味性，旋律性和歌词的长处，给我们带来了十分刺激的体验。交姐不再是i knew you were trouble里那个想成为坏女孩的好女孩，逃跑车中，她成为了男人的equal，为了逃生公平竞技，最终技高一筹。这首歌也美在其（在交姐世界中）独特的born to die美学，这份感情不是那种不被家人朋友看好的小rebel恋爱，而是一开始就doomed的末路狂花
It was the best of times, the worst of crimes
I struck a match and blew your mind But I didn’t mean it and you didn't see it
The ties were black, the lies were white In shades of gray in candlelight
I wanted to leave him, I needed a reason
我交也是读过双城记的！在最美好的年纪，犯下最无赦的罪过，在最不可能的实际却遇到了看起来最对的人，这就是逃跑车的开始。我交还在和卡受在一起时，不经意间勾引了抖森，可能是我交的穿着方式，也可能是我交散发的某种诱惑，促成了这件事的发生，这部分是我交的错。黑白灰三色有不同含义，黑色的是西服，白色的是情感中的谎言，灰色的是道德中间地带。我交只想找个借口体面离开
"X" marks the spot where we fell apart
He poisoned the well, I was lyin' to myself
I knew it from the first Old Fashioned, we were cursed
We never had a shotgun shot in the dark
x marks the spark是我交昔日好友Hillary Duffy的歌词，也是当年met gala主题的一部分。我交一开始就知道这个三角关系不会有好下场，她将shotgun shot放入了a shot in the dark，既体现出这个感情成功希望渺茫，又暗指无论怎样，造成的伤害都会很大
You were drivin’ the getaway car We were flyin', but we'd never get far
Don't pretend it's such a mystery
Ridin' in a getaway car There were sirens in the beat of your heart
Shoulda known I'd be the first to leave
Think about the place where you first met me
我交和抖森已经上了逃跑车全速离开，但也知道他们跑不远，而她在抖森的心跳中也听到了警报，即使这个全新的恋情也暗藏玄机。有趣的是他们都想见在同一个地方（包括脚爱闻），也就是MET gala
We were jet-set, Bonnie and Clyde Until I switched to the other side, to the other side
It's no surprise I turned you in 'Cause us traitors never win
I'm in a getaway car I left you in a motel bar
Put the money in a bag and I stole the keys That was the last time you ever saw me
这个bridge维持了我交的正常水平，但其中却发生了太多事情。我交背叛了新的乘客，因为那段感情本身就始乱终弃。虽然借用了bonnie&clyde的故事，我交却没有和他们有同样的结局。她从这个三人sideshow circus自救，最终投奔了脚爱闻

2. willow 瘤树
willow是癌味膜的真正key song。它讲述的是一段爱情的开始，只是说他们陷入了热恋却没有给他们happy everafter。专辑中剩下的大部分歌实际上是这个故事不同版本的结局和衍生的故事，同时，它也奠定了整张专辑想要营造的氛围——在上个世纪某个秋冬的沿海乡村里，大大小小形状各异的房子里发生的截然不同的故事。
I'm like the water when your ship rolled in that night
Rough on the surface, but you cut through like a knife
And if it was an open-shut case
I never would've known from that look on your face
Lost in your current like a priceless wine
我交不再是交通工具，而是交通工具的载体。她把自己比作一片水域，神秘而强大，但男主却划破了她的水面。男主有猪肉脸，我交看不透，但已经迷失在了男主的湍流中（关于酒的比喻在我交的后期变得频繁）。要注意，一开始我交是water，此时男主变成了湍流
Life was a willow and it bent right to your wind
Head on the pillow, I could feel you sneakin' in
As if you were a mythical thing
Like you were a trophy or a champion ring
And there was one prize I'd cheat to win
第一句可以竞选我交最佳歌词。柳树的经典形象就是弯着腰，柳枝随风飘荡，而男人就是这个可以让我交飘起柳枝、并且改变终身生长轨迹的风。男人对于我交是一个mythical thing，而我交也展现了自己mastermind的一面，为了男人可以使出非常手段
Wait for the signal, and I'll meet you after dark
Show me the places where the others gave you scars
Now this is an open-shut case
I guess I should've known from the look on your face
Every bait-and-switch was a work of art
此时二人的dynamic在此反转，男人要等我交的指示和她交媾，要向我交展示自己最脆弱的一面。现在我交确信这就是一个一眼看到底的事情，也许一开始就应当看出来，但两个人来回的博弈确实引人入胜
The more that you say, the less I know
Wherever you stray, I follow
You know that my train could take you home
Anywhere else is hollow
I'm begging for you to take my hand
Wreck my plans, that's my man
这是多么有问题的思想，但是在整个故事中却显得那么理所应当。这就是那个时代那个地方最美的爱情，男人就是一切，但得到男人之后的故事就另说了

1. cardigan 阴毛衫
当听完妇科楼的时候，我就给某个肛毛姐妹发，完蛋了要三封了。但monsters turned out to be just trees,四疯之后我们肛家军依然越战越强！同时，cardigan也是我交离心心念念的格莱美最大奖之一年度歌曲最近的一次，可惜撞上了我鹤，压得我交喘不上气
我交找雷木竹偷师学艺是有效果的，cardigan的叙述如流水般通畅，又和阴毛衫一样温暖。一幕幕跳跃的回忆仿佛都被笼罩在昏黄的灯光下，跨越多年的回忆没有了当年的热烈和激情，剩下的只是爱
Vintage tee, brand new phone High heels on cobblestone
Sequinsmile, black lipstick Sensualpolitics
When you are young, they assumeyou know nothing
这些意象虽然都属于青年人，但它们却是相互矛盾的。新的科技，老的文化潮流，对普世美的追求，个性的化妆以及敏感的话题，可能同时出现在一个人身上，也可能不会。在年轻时，我交还在尝试这一切，她也知道别人认为她什么都不知道
But I knew you
Dancin' in your Levi's Drunk under a streetlight,
Hand under my sweatshirt Baby, kiss it better, I
Playing hide-and-seek and Giving me your weekends,
Your heartbeat on the High Line Once in twenty lifetimes, I
我交别的可能不知道，但和男人相关的我交可懂得不少。这里她列举了这些充满着童稚气息的对青年话题的探索，在喝醉酒，尝试亲吻，玩弄感情，但在highline上，我交知道这样的感情可能一辈子只有一回
To kiss in cars and downtown bars
Was all we needed
You drew stars around my scars
But now I'm bleedin'
年轻时我交想要的并不多，一起make out却互相关怀，在伤口画星星是多么浪漫的事情，但现在那个画星星的人不在了，我交的心和伤口开始滴血
Steppin' on the last train
Marked me like a bloodstain,
Tried to change the ending
Peter losing Wendy,
Leavin' like a father
Running like water,
所以发生了什么呢？也许什么都没有发生，只是我交长大了。她和男主可能只是踏上了不同的轨道，任何想改变结局的尝试都是徒劳。男孩像Betty爹一样跑了，像水流一样无法阻拦（或者水流也代表着时间的流逝）。Peter Pan的故事代表着童年到青年的成长，我交不可能一辈子停留在童话故事里
But I knew you'd linger like a tattoo kiss
I knew you'd haunt all of my what-ifs
The smell of smoke would hang around this long
I knew I'd curse you for the longest time
Chasin' shadows in the grocery line
I knew you'd miss me once the thrill expired
And you'd be standin' in my front porch light
And I knew you'd come back to me
在我交说自己年轻时知道一切的时候，她知道的就是这些。她知道她永远不会忘记这份感情，浓烈的爱和幼稚的恨在很长的一段时间都不会消逝，固执的觉得他还在下一个过道，他会想起公交，他会站在门廊里等着公交，他会回来。这也许就是她所需要知道的一切
And when I felt like I was an old cardigan
Under someone's bed
You put me on and said I was your favorite
最后回到了这个refrain，这才是我交真正所需要知道的。无论觉得自己多么值得或不值得，自己永远是被某人爱着的
