※ 引述《slsk (slsk)》之銘言： : 旋律是相當讚的 : 但是沒弄清楚他在表達什麼涵義 http://www.pastemagazine.com/action/article?article_id=3733 “Phantom Limb,” the album’s first single, is about two teenage lesbians and the alienation they feel from their peers at a small-town high school. As we scroll down the lyrics, Mercer admits that much of it is actually about the alienation he felt growing up, just re-contextualized. 這首歌寫的是一對蕾絲邊少女的疏離感. "Phantom limb" 是被割離已不存在, 卻仍然有 "感覺" 的肢體; 所以可能是...象徵上的陽具 (行動, 作為的意志) ? 當然也可能是 "心裡想出走, 身體卻還待著" 的疏離狀態. Foals in winter coats White girls of the north File past one five and one they are the fabled lambs of Sunday ham the EHS norm And they could float above the grass in circles if they tried a latent power i know they hide to keep some hope alive that a girl like i, could ever try could ever try So we just skirt the hallway sides a phantom and fly Follow the lines and wonder why there's no connection A week of rolling eyes and cheap shots from the trite and we're off to Nemarcas porch again another afternoon of the goat headtunes and pilfered booze we wander through her mamma's house the milk from the window lights family portrait circa '95 this is that foreign land of the sprayed on tans and it all feels fine be it silk or slime So when they tap our Monday heads two zombies walk in our stead this town seems hardly worth our time and we'll no longer memorize or rhyme too far along in our climb stepping over what now towers to the sky with no connection So when they tap our Sunday heads two zombies walk in our stead this town seems hardly worth our time and we'll no longer memorize or rhyme too far along in our crime stepping over what now towers to the sky with no connection -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 219.87.12.52
