Say Something, I’m giving up on You

Click – A Great Big World: “Say Something”

Say something, I’m giving up on you
I’ll be the one if you want me to
Anywhere I would’ve followed you
Say something, I’m giving up on you

And I… am feeling so small
It was over my head
I know nothing at all
And I… will stumble and fall
I’m still learning to love
Just starting to crawl

Say something, I’m giving up on you
I’m sorry that I couldn’t get to you
Anywhere I would’ve followed you
Say something, I’m giving up on you

And I… will swallow my pride
You’re the one that I love
And I’m saying goodbye

Say something, I’m giving up on you
And I’m sorry that I couldn’t get to you
And anywhere I would’ve followed you (Oh-Ooh)
Say something, I’m giving up on you

Say something, I’m giving up on you
Say something…

默

忍不住化身一条固执的鱼
逆着洋流独自游到底
年少时候虔诚发过的誓
沉默地沉没在深海里
重温几次
结局还是 失去你

我被爱判处终身孤寂
不还手 不放手
笔下画不完的圆
心间填不满的缘
是你
为何爱判处众生孤寂
挣不脱 逃不过
眉头解不开的结
命中解不开的劫
是你
啊 失去你
啊 我失去你

煙花易冷

You come to me in Sadness or Frustrations,

Seldom for Happiness.

你的心里是没有我的，

我也会让我心里

渐渐没有你。

純屬意外 – 妳

翻越了一座山 流浪了多少城市
談懂了幾段的愛情 才了解現在的自己

打翻了幾個抽屜 刪了不少舊的訊息
明白了是晴是雨 才能夠遇見了你

你給我的一切 純屬意外
就算我躲起來也被掩埋
Oh why I don’t know why
外面 風雨都不再精彩 我越是崇拜

你給我的世界是場意外
就算繁華停擺我也被寵壞
Oh why I don’t know why
窩在 你的屋簷下的那個女孩
只對你慷慨 只對你依賴
只讓你填滿我的空白 I think you know why

征服了一座山 瀏覽了多少風景
經歷了太多的悲喜 才換得現在的你

你給我的一切 純屬意外
就算我躲起來也被掩埋
Oh why I don’t know why
外面 風雨都不再精彩 我越是崇拜

你給我的世界是場意外
就算繁華停擺我也被寵壞
Oh why I don’t know why
窩在 你的屋簷下 的那個女孩
多麼驚喜 有多珍惜
是你讓我可以是唯一 I think you know why

夜夜夜夜 – 我

想問天你在哪裡
我想問問我自己
一開始我聰明
結束我聰明
聰明的幾乎都毀掉了我自己
想問天問大地
或者是迷信問問宿命
放棄所有
拋下所有
讓我飄流在安靜的夜夜空裡
你也不必牽強再說愛我
反正我的靈魂已片片凋落
慢慢的拼湊
慢慢的拼湊
拼湊成一個完全不屬於真正的我
我不願再放縱
我不願每天每夜每秒飄流
也不願再多問再多說再多求
我的夢

The past is past, it is the present that I am sad about

I see the Night as a Silence that stands before me
I see the Silence as a Monster that wants to devour me
I beg and cry but the Monster just stare at me
Still as every Night
I roared, I hallowed
I sink and dig my claws into it instead
I thought of victory but all is still
You know You know You know
The secrets we keep in our bosom still

I lost my laptop

My laptop was stolen!
Along with all my photos of you!
Panicked!
I didn’t have any backups!
I didn’t have it in another hard disk!
Why didn’t I saved another copy!
Shit! Fuck!
I went round and round
Looking for it
Afraid I would slowly lose my memories of you
Your face,
Your gestures,
The old fashioned spectacles you wear when we are at the cinema,
The way I found it so cute and just had to kiss you and say I love you,
Our trips together,
2 lives that met and became entwined.
I was stupid…
I saw your new photos on the web accidentally
When I was worried when the quake happened
Thank God you were not there
In Beijing they told me
And married.

I didn’t know, had no idea,
No email,
No letter,
No messages through common friends,
No wedding invitations,
Nothing at all.
You have forgotten
Forgotten it all.

Maybe losing the laptop was for the best
Better this way
And time can do the rest
I know I know
Who am I bluffing?
The photos are still there
I know I know
My brain needs a crash
The spinning white wheel of a non start-up
Then at last I can also forget

Everyone sings Leonard Cohen

Just to show how timeless Leonard Cohen’s songs are, how influential he is to other singers. K.D. Lang’s version of “Hallelujah” is amazing!

Results of 2nd Singapore Short Film Awards 2011

The 2nd Singapore Short Film Awards Night 2011 was held last Sunday, 6 March at the Substation. I was part of the 4 person jury for this year. I think there were some surprise that 3 Awards were not given out. Straits Times even wrote an article about it! (Click on it to view full document)

Here are some pics from the awards night 🙂

 

That deep, gravelly golden Voice

We came back late. Your room was dark but you just switch on a single lamp. You know I didn’t like to drink. Under the weak light, you went to your rows of CDs strewn on the floor. The soft hiss of the player cover opens as you pop one in. You didn’t say a word, you just let the music play:

 

“Suzanne takes you down

to her place near the river

you can hear the boats go by

you can spend the night beside her

And you know that she’s half crazy

but that’s why you want to be there

and she feeds you tea and oranges

that come all the way from China

And just when you mean to tell her

that you have no love to give her

she gets you on her wavelength

and she lets the river answer

that you’ve always been her lover

And you want to travel with her

you want to travel blind

and you know that she can trust you

for you’ve touched her perfect body

with your mind”

 

That was the first time I heard this deep, gravelly golden voice. “Who is this?” I asked. “Don’t you know? It’s Leonard Cohen.” It must have been more than 15 years ago. You and I have both aged, You and I have both been through sorrows. But he still keeps on singing, singing, singing……
