看了兩次也忍不住哭了，

時間，也彷彿靜止於畫面中。

有機會一定會去感受這地方。


Music: The Cinematic Orchestra – To Build A Home

There is a house built out of stone
Wooden floors, walls and window sills
Tables and chairs worn by all of the dust
This is a place where I don't feel alone
This is a place where I feel at home

'Cause, I built a home
For you
For me

Until it disappeared
From me
From you

And now, it's time to leave and turn to dust

Out in the garden where we planted the seeds
There is a tree as old as me
Branches were sewn by the color of green
Ground had arose and passed it's knees

By the cracks of the skin I climbed to the top
I climbed the tree to see the world
When the gusts came around to blow me down
I held on as tightly as you held onto me
I held on as tightly as you held onto me

And, I built a home
For you
For me

Until it disappeared
From me
From you

And now, it's time to leave and turn to dust

Fake Empire-The National

I first listened to this song about four or five years ago.

The song is good, but I never found it haunting.

but until now, after my three months time in Macau, I think this song is GREAT.


Stay out super late tonight
Picking apples, making pies
Put a little something in our lemonade
And take it with us

We're half awake in a fake empire
We're half awake in a fake empire

Tiptoe through our shiny city
With our diamond slippers on
Do our gay ballet on ice
Bluebirds on our shoulders

We're half awake in a fake empire
We're half awake in a fake empire

Turn the light out, say goodnight
No thinking for a little while
Let's not try to figure out everything at once
It's hard to keep track of you falling through the sky

We're half awake in a fake empire
We're half awake in a fake empire

Travis-Why does it always rain on me?

I can't sleep tonight
我今晚無法入眠
Everybody saying everything's alright
每個人都說一切都很好啊
Still I can't close my eyes
但我還是無法閉上眼睛
I'm seeing a tunnel at the end of all these lights
我看見在這些光芒的盡頭有一條隧道

Sunny days
晴朗的天氣
Where have you gone?
你到哪裡去了?
I get the strangest feeling you belong
我對你在何處感到奇怪

Why does it always rain on me?
為什麼雨老是下在我身上?
Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
是不是因為我十七歲那年撒了謊?
Why does it always rain on me?
為什麼雨老是下在我身上?
Even when the sun is shining
就算明明豔陽高照
I can't avoid the lightning
我還是躲不掉那些閃電

I can't stand myself
連我都受不了我自己了
I'm being held up by an invisible man
被無形之手挽住
Still life on a shelf when
生命擱置於架上
I got my mind on something else
我卻神遊於物外
Sunny days
晴朗的天氣
Where have you gone?
你到哪裡去了?
I get the strangest feeling you belong
我對你在何處感到奇怪

I can't avoid the lightning
我還是躲不掉那些閃電
Oh, where did the blue skies go?
哦，藍天都跑到哪裡去了?
And why is it raining so?
為什麼雨會下成這樣呢?
It's so cold
真的很冷
so cold...
很冷...

I can't sleep tonight
我今晚無法入眠
Everybody saying everything's alright
每個人都說一切都很好啊
Still I can't close my eyes
但我還是無法閉上眼睛
I'm seeing a tunnel at the end of all these lights

Lies By Glen Hasard and Marketa Irglova (from the movie Once)

I think it's time, we give it up 我想，是時候該放棄了
And figure out what's stopping us 弄清楚到底是什麼阻撓我們在一起
From breathing easy, and talking straight 讓我們無法自由呼吸，無法暢所直言
The way is clear if you're ready now 未來的路就在眼前，若你已準備好
The volunteer is slowing down 自願者正放慢步伐
And taking time to save himself  努力拯救他自己

The little cracks they escalated 小小衝突惡化成嚴重的爭吵
And before we knew it was too late 等我們發現，為時已晚
For making circles and telling lies 繞著圈子，滿口謊言

You're moving too fast for me 你已走的太遠
And I can't keep up with you 我追趕不上
Maybe if you slowed down for me 如果你能為我放慢腳步
I could see you're only telling 我就能看清你不過是說著
Lies, lies, lies 謊言
Breaking us down with your 你的謊言讓我們分離
Lies, lies, lies 謊言
When will you learn 你何時才會懂

The little cracks they escalated 小小衝突惡化成嚴重的爭吵
And before you knew it was too late 等我們發現，為時已晚
For making circles and telling lies 繞著圈子，滿口謊言

You're moving too fast for me 你已走的太遠
And I can't keep up with you 我追趕不上
Maybe if you slowed down for me 如果你能為我放慢腳步
I could see you're only telling 我就能看清你不過是說著
Lies, lies, lies 謊言
Breaking us down with your 你的謊言讓我們分離
Lies, lies, lies 謊言
When will you learn 你何時才會懂

So plant the thought and watch it grow 所以就擬定計畫，開始實行吧
Wind it up and let it go讓其他都隨風而逝

Skinny Love by Bon Iver

Skinny Love, 在Stories We Tell中的配樂之一，看完電影才懂導演選這首歌的用意。


翻譯來源：http://www.douban.com/group/topic/19840642/

skinny 是小器的意思，skinny love表面意思是吝嗇的愛，也就是“得不到回應的愛”。整篇講述了主人公為心愛的他/她默默付出但得不到等量回應的愛，最後還是決定放手。

Come on skinny love just last the year
你可憐的愛給了我只維持一年
Pour a little salt we were never here
愛情若能加添些滋味我們則不會走到這一步
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
我的（愛），我的（愛），。。。
Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer
只能看著破碎的木片和那縫隙間的血跡
I tell my love to wreck it all
我告訴自己我的愛毀壞一切
Cut out all the ropes and let me fall
忘掉所有羈絆讓我沉淪吧
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
我的（愛），我的（愛），
Right in the moment this order's tall
在此刻這個想法如此強烈
I told you to be patient
我告訴過你學會有耐心
I told you to be fine
我告訴過你去好好生活
I told you to be balance
我告訴過你要和諧地生活
I told you to be kind
我告訴過你要和藹待人
In the morning I'll be with you
在清晨時我會陪著你
But it will be a different kind
但那已經不再一樣了
I'll be holding all the tickets
我拿著所有的罰單（就是我傾心付出）
And you'll be owning all the fines
而你欠了所有的罰款（你從不給我回報）

Come on skinny love what happened here
可憐的愛 我的生活怎麼了
Suckle on the hope in lite brassiere
在干癟的乳房中吮吸著一絲希望
（意思是祈求你也會愛上我）
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
我的（愛），我的（愛），。。。
Sullen load is full; so slow on the split
（裝）壞心情的袋子已經被裝滿，但破裂卻如此之慢
(主人公舍不得放手)

I told you to be patient
我告訴過你學會有耐心
I told you to be fine
我告訴過你去好好生活
I told you to be balance
我告訴過你要和諧地生活
I told you to be kind
我告訴過你要和藹待人
Now all your love is wasted?
現在你全部的愛都被浪費了？
Then who the hell was I?
那麼對你來說我究竟算什麼
Now I'm breaking at the britches
我輸掉了一切
（britches褲子，俚語中有“賭注”的意思，如：you bet your britches(堵上你的褲子),有一舉定輸贏的意思）
And at the end of all your lines
在你生命中排在末位


Who will love you?
誰會來愛你？
Who will fight?
誰會爭取到你的愛？
Who will fall far behind?
誰又會被拋在身後？（說主人公自己）

Way Back Into Love - Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore

I've been living with a shadow overhead
我一直活在陰影之下
I've been sleeping with a cloud above my bed
烏雲總是伴著我入眠
I've been lonely for so long
長久以來我是如此寂寞
Trapped in the past, I just can't seem to move on
被過往所困，似乎無法前行

I've been hiding all my hopes and dreams away
我已將我的希望與夢想深藏
Just in case I ever need them again someday
以防哪一天我會再需要它們
I've been setting aside time
我總是撥出一些時間
To clear a little space in the corners of my mind
在心靈角落清出一點點空間

All I want to do is find a way back into love
我所想要的，就是重新找回愛
I can't make it through without a way back into love
若找不到愛，我將無法撐過一切
Oh oh oh
喔喔喔

I've been watching but the stars refuse to shine
我一直仰望天際，但星星並不閃耀
I've been searching but I just don't see the signs
我總是在尋覓，但不見愛的徵兆
I know that it's out there
我知道真愛存在
There's got to be something for my soul somewhere
我的靈魂伴侶一定就在某處

I've been looking for someone to shed some light
我一直在找尋能和我激盪出生命光彩的伴侶
Not just somebody just to get me through the night
而不是一夜良宵的露水姻緣
I could use some direction
我需要一些指引
And I'm open to your suggestions
我將樂意接受妳的示意

All I want to do is find a way back into love
我所想要的，就是重新找回愛
I can't make it through without a way back into love
若找不到愛，我將無法撐過一切
And if I open my heart again
如果我再度打開心房
I guess I'm hoping you'll be there for me in the end
我猜我會希望你是那個守候著我一直到最後的人

There are moments when I don't know if it's real
有時候我並不確定這一切是真是假
Or if anybody feels the way I feel
或是有沒有人跟我有著相同的感受
I need inspiration
我需要一些啟發
Not just another negotiation
而不是另一個交涉協商

All I want to do is find a way back into love
我所想要的，就是重新找回愛
I can't make it through without a way back into love
若找不到愛，我將無法撐過一切
And if I open my heart to you
如果我對你敞開心房
I'm hoping you'll show me what to do
我希望你能告訴我該怎麼作
And if you help me to start again
若你能幫助我重新開始
You know that I'll be there for you in the end
我將會是那個守候著你一直到最後的人
