The Way It Seems to Go

The Way It Seems to Go
可行之路
Rachael Yamagata
山形瑞秋

是敵也可是友

事物是相對的
My friends become my foes
我開始看見她的美
And my foes become my friends
男朋友？沒了
I tend to fall in love with the girls
正常上班時間是星期一到五？
My boyfriend ends
不，我偏要周末

每當我手指觸摸出
I dont work 9 to 5
一些奇妙新世界
But Ill always work the weekends
我既在前進，又在倒退
And each time Ill get the world
是左，也要右
In my fingers something happens
真頭痛！

做不了決定！
Im working backwards, forwards
我在上演一個悲劇童話
And left to right
每當陽光燦爛
And Im pretty darn hard headed
我卻只在黑暗中聽到一聲光芒
But I cant make up my mind
哈，我專職停留在一線希望之間

我會在的，當你說需要我
Ill take a tragedy over a fairytale
無論天塌下來
But only when the sun is shining
這種時刻對我多殘忍
Ill be the voice of hope in your darkest hour
但這是我唯一可行之路
Im an expert in the silver lining
我顛倒日夜

沉於買醉，輕浮活著
Ill be there when you need me
往往追求不可能的完美
For all the big things
我不能忍受閒聊，但我擅長忍耐
But Im really pathetic at perfect timing
不行不行，我還是要離開你
And thats the way it seems to go for me
唉，可是一會又求你再愛我

當我終於安靜
I go to bed at 8 and wake up at 4.30
你卻早知那是暴風雨前的寧靜
Most day I drink like a fish and tend to be too flirty
雨中頹步，夜色中行走
I am a perfectionist but only when things get dirty
大家都在盡歡時
I cannot stand small talk but Im great at being wordy
我失落在你給的痛哭流涕中

教教這顆受傷破碎的心
And Id rather leave you first
於是我再思考，力求做出正確的事
But then Ill be begging you to come back
要改變了嗎？我奮然
And when I get real quiet
這是我唯一可行之路
You know Im about to attack
如果你只愛我的憂鬱

抱歉，那不是我
Ill take a walk in the rain or a drive in the dark
我是不一樣的煙火
But only when everyones celebrating
你從不主動坦言
Ill dig in to your pain and tear it apart
他的世界才那麼丁點
But only to help the heart thats breaking
我使他平靜下來，我們為彼此做早餐

朋友都說我們很適合
I like to figure things out and make everything right
他愛追求空幻，而我愛壞極了的天氣
But Im secretly thrilled when everythings changing
我應該會先離開他的
And thats the way it seems to go for me
但他魂不守舍在我之前很久了吧？

我要求他回來嗎？
If you fall for the part thats brooding and dark
哎呀，不知道！
You will never discover the rest of my heart
一個安靜的夜裡我打了一場拳擊，
And I want you to see that theres so much to see
我想追求更遠好的。
Just before I declare you never knew me
敗了就歸來

但哪怕只有一絲希望我也去力爭
Hes with the small stuff like the world around was over
我不放棄去贏
I calm him down and we make breakfast for each other
倘若實在不行，我唯有盡情宣洩
Our friends all thought we fit so perfectly together
這就是我的路
He likes what he cant have and I sure like bad weather
是的，我的路

喔，我的路。
I may have left him first
But I think hed been leaving for sometime
I feel like begging him to come back
But I cant make up my mind

Ill take a boxing match over the quiet night
But only to make for better dreams
Ill back the underdog in any fight
But only to fight for something worth keeping

Im in it to win it, most of the time
And if it goes down Ill be kicking and screaming
And thats the way it seems to go for me
Yeah, and thats the way it seems to go for me
Whoa, and thats the way it seems to go for me
