Burn It Down Lyrics
The cycle repeated
as explosions broke in the sky
all that I needed
was the one thing I couldn't find
And you were there at the turn
Waiting to let me know
We're building it up
To break it back down
We're building this up
To burn it down
We can't wait
To burn it to the ground
The colors conflicted
as the flames climbed into the clouds
I wanted to fix this / but
couldn't stop from tearing it down
And you were caught at the turn
caught in the burning glow
And I was there at the turn
Waiting to let you know
You told me yes / You held me high
And I believed when you told that lie
I played that soldier / You played king
And struck me down when I kissed that ring
You lost that right / to hold that crown
I built you up but you let me down
so when you fall / I'll take my turn
and fan the flames as your blazes burn
第一次聽完,只覺得「好linkin park啊」,既然「很linkin park」,當然不失為一首震撼人心的佳作,不過也因為如此,與上一張專輯的Waiting for the end、Let it go、Burning in the skies等風格相對迥異的抒情歌相比,並沒有令我太驚艷。
之後聽了第二遍、第三遍,就一遍一遍聽下去了。Chester的歌聲一如往昔powerful,每一聽回,心就跟著被撕裂一回(是否只有經歷過如此慘痛童年的人,才足以擁有這種天賦?)還有不可或缺的,既流暢又震撼十足地,道盡對人生困惑和質疑,Mike的rap。還有,「有始有終」且變化多端的電音旋律。
總之,還是一首我會大力推薦的好歌♥♥♥♥♥,可惜今天看電腦的時間實在太久(一點都不輕鬆的豪雨假.....但反正記者本來就沒資格談什麼天災假期XD),如今眼睛痠痛,有種快脫窗的噁心感,有機會再來好好研究吧~
