Hallelujah

我覺得很奇怪的是為什麼片裡要用一段《怪物史萊克》的插曲「Hallelujah」歌我是數年前就很喜歡的，為此，我特地查了一下這段歌的歌詞，想從中找尋與本片有關的內容。




i heard there was a secret chord
that david played and it pleased the lord
but you don't really care for music, do you
well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth
the minor fall and the major lift
the baffled king composing hallelujah

hallelujah...

well your faith was strong but you needed proof
you saw her bathing on the roof
her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
she tied you to her kitchen chair
she broke your throne and she cut your hair
and from your lips she drew the hallelujah

hallelujah...

baby i've been here before
i've seen this room and i've walked this floor
i used to live alone before i knew you
i've seen your flag on the marble arch
but love is not a victory march
it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

hallelujah...

well there was a time when you let me know
what's really going on below
but now you never show that to me do you
but remember when i moved in you
and the holy dove was moving too
and every breath we drew was hallelujah

hallelujah...

well, maybe there's a god above
but all i've ever learned from love
was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
it's not a cry that you hear at night
it's not somebody who's seen the light
it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

hallelujah...



「well, maybe there's a god above
but all i've ever learned from love
was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
it's not a cry that you hear at night
it's not somebody who's seen the light
it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah」

「恩，或許上帝在天上望著我們
但是我所知道的愛就是如何射死其他的人
夜裡再聽不到他們的哭泣
也不再有人能見到光明
這是一個寒冷破碎的世界」

最後一段，我想這就是答案了，沒想過這段詞和曲在這樣一個新背景下竟如此地讓聽著傷心。
