Carpe diem!

終於到了Pure Heroine的最終章

在進入那個心目中的"美好世界"之後(詳見White Teeth Teens)

也讓Lorde看盡了這個人世間的百態...

White Teeth Teens闡述了她想要改變世俗之惡的想法

卻還是了解到，這任務不是那麼容易

於是先從自身開始改變起，不與其他人同流合汙，創建出屬於自己的"國度"

而Lorde(藝名由來就是取Lord之意)理所當然地就會成為這個"新國度"的領導者

在愛人的陪伴之下，在這個所謂"另一個世界"裡過著永遠幸福無紛擾的生活

但是呢，終究還是有人對此議論紛紛(即所謂的世俗)，試圖要破壞這個她辛苦建立的國度

於是Lorde使出最大絕招：掩耳不聽、不予理會

那些閒言閒語終究只是閒言閒語罷了，傷害不了我們(詳見Tennis Court)

在歌曲末加入人群的講話聲，搭上歌詞People are talking，更為歌曲增添畫面感

並與專輯頭一首歌Tennis Court的頭句歌詞做呼應

可謂Lorde在此專輯中一個巧妙且睿智的安排！

A World Alone  我們的世界

That slow burn wait while it gets dark,

Bruising the sun,

I feel grown up with you in your car

I know it's dumb

那些惡毒話語，在暗中蓄勢待發

準備慢慢磨蝕掉太陽

坐在你開的車裡面，感覺像是我長大了一樣

其實我知道這有點蠢

We've both got a million bad habits to kick

Not sleeping is one

We're biting our nails, you're biting my lip

I'm biting my tongue

我們有一大堆的壞習慣等著改掉

尤其是熬夜不睡覺

還會咬指甲

而且你很愛咬我的嘴唇

我一句話都沒說

When people are talking, people are talking

When People are talking, people are talking

但其他人們卻一直在討論著、議論著…

Raise a glass, 'cause I'm not done saying it

They all wanna get rough, get away with it

Let 'em talk 'cause we're dancing in this world alone

We're all alone

We're alone

依舊舉杯狂歡，因為我可不想把醜話說出口

他們都想傷害我們，事後還裝出事不關己的樣子

我們在自己的世界裡獨自跳舞著，所以隨他們去說吧

這個全新的世界

只屬於我們兩個

All my fake friends and all of their noise

Complain about work

They're studying business, I study the floor

And you haven't stopped smoking all night

Maybe the Internet raised us

Or maybe people are jerks

那些假朋友實在吵死人

一邊抱怨自己的工作

一邊汲汲營營於自己的事業，我完全不在乎這些

而你呢，抽了一整個晚上的菸

也許我們是被網路給扶養長大

或者那些人是一群蠢蛋也說不定

When people are talking, people are talking (But not you)

When people are talking, people are talking

但其他人們卻一直在討論著…(除了你)

一直不斷議論著、八卦著…

Raise a glass, 'cause I'm not done saying it

They all wanna get rough, get away with it

Let 'em talk 'cause we're dancing in this world alone

We're all alone

We're alone

依舊舉杯狂歡，因為我可不想把醜話說出口

他們都想傷害我們，事後還裝出事不關己的樣子

我們在自己的世界裡獨自跳舞著，所以隨他們去說吧

這個全新的世界

只屬於我們兩個

All the double-edged people and schemes

They make a mess then go home and get clean

You're my best friend, and we're dancing in a world alone,

We're all alone

We're all alone

所有人都表裡不一、各懷鬼胎

想要挑撥離間，然後安然脫身

但你可是我的摯友，所以我邀請你到那個世界，跟我跳隻舞

這個全新的世界

只屬於我們兩個

I know we're not everlasting

We're a train wreck waiting to happen

One day the blood won't flow so gladly

One day we're all get still

When people are talking, people are talking

Get still

我了解，這段關係不可能長久

很有可能會變成悲劇

有一天我們的血液會越流越慢…

直到我們靜止不動、靜止不動…

(但人們還是喋喋不休、喋喋不休…)

不斷地、不斷地議論著….

When people are talking, people are talking

When people are talking, people are talking

一直不斷議論著、八卦著…(X2)

Raise a glass, 'cause I'm not done saying it

They all wanna get rough, get away with it

Let 'em talk 'cause we're dancing in this world alone

We're all alone

We're alone

依舊舉杯狂歡，因為我可不想把醜話說出口

他們都想傷害我們，事後還裝出事不關己的樣子

我們在自己的世界裡獨自跳舞著，所以隨他們去說吧

這個全新的世界

只屬於我們兩個…

All the double-edged people and schemes

They make a mess then go home and get clean

You're my best friend, so we're dancing in a world alone

We're all alone

We're all alone

所有人表裡不一、各懷鬼胎

想要挑撥離間，然後安然脫身

只有你，我的摯友

我邀請你到那個世界，跟我跳隻舞

因為這個全新的世界

只屬於我們兩個…

When people are talking, people are talking

When people are talking, people are talking

When people are talking, people are talking

When people are talking, people are talking

一直不斷議論紛紛…(X4)

Let 'em talk

隨他們去說吧！
