Katharine McPhee - Me

彼日有人分享了Katharine McPhee重新翻唱Paula Cole的這首歌。收看American Idol的觀眾就知道，Katharine McPhee是第五季的亞軍。日前出了專輯，但好像成績不怎麼樣特別突出（倒是第三名的Elliot Yamin跟第四名Chris Daughtry的成績意外地好）。但我好喜歡這首沒有收在專輯裡的歌。我喜歡這首歌毫不掩飾的脆弱，以及人前故做堅強的模樣，並不知為何想起我的妹子。我娘親常說不瞭解我妹，但瞭解我妹子的我，希望可以把這首歌送給她。希望她知道，有時候不堅強也是OK的。：）



I am not the person who is singing　我不是歌者

I am the silent one inside　而是安靜的自己

I am not the one who laughs at people's jokes　我並不因為別人的玩笑而起鬨

I just pacify their egos　我只想與他們的自尊和平共處

I am not my house, my car, my songs　我不是我的房子、我的車、我的歌

They are only just stops along my way　它們只是我人生旅途的過站

I am like the winter　我像是冬日

I'm a dark cold female　我是陰暗寒冷的女性

With a golden ring of wisdom in my cave　但亦在外表鑲上智慧的金戒



And it is me who is my enemy　我是自己的敵人

Me who beats me up　我是擊敗自己的人

Me who makes the monsters　我創造出那些怪獸般的阻礙

Me who strips my confidence　也是我剝奪自己的信心



I am carrying my voice　但我讓歌聲遨翔

I am carrying my heart　我的心也隨之飛舞

I am carrying my rhythm　我的旋律高歌

I am carrying my prayers　期望祈禱應驗

But you can't kill my spirit　你無法消滅我的靈魂

It's soaring and it's strong　因為它自在飛翔

Like a mountain　像山一般堅定

I'll go on and on　我會繼續下去，一直繼續

But when my wings are folded　在我斂翅停棲之際

The brightly colored moth　色彩斑斕的飛蛾

Blends into the dirt into the ground　終究也會化為塵土一坯



And it's me who's too weak　我太過軟弱

And it's me who's too shy　太過害羞

To ask for the thing I love　不敢要求自己真正喜愛的

And it's me who's too weak　我太過軟弱

And it's me who's too shy　太過害羞

To ask for the thing I love　不敢要求自己真正喜愛的

That I love　我真正喜愛的種種



I am walking on the bridge　但我走在橋上

I am over the water　如履薄冰

And I'm scared as hell　飽受驚嚇

But I know there's something better　但我知道總有更好的未知

Yes I know there's something better　但我曉得有更好的未來

Yes I know, yes I know, yes I know　是的，我都知道



That I love　我所喜愛的

But it's me　我就是我

And it's me　這就是我

But it's me　這就是最真的我
