18th Nov 2014 (時間開的玩笑 – Shiga Lin)

The song for today is “時間開的玩笑” by Shiga Lin. This song was released earlier this year. The direct English translation of the title is “A joke that time made”.

The lyrics of the song are about love. The protagonist said that a special someone could understand every drop of her tears. He would understand her. She wonders whether he knows how sad and beautiful this feeling is. She is grateful and at the same time sad. She can only blame herself that her mouth didn’t speak of her heart. Even when she really wanted to fallen in love, true words just wanted to avoid her mouth. That’s why it looks so passive. Because of that she decided that they are best friend. But then she realised that this is more like a wound, they don’t need to hold hands and they will not breakup. But why she doesn’t want this type of freedom. It would be great if she could know him earlier. If she didn’t first hit her lowest point and tangled by painful feeling, then she wouldn’t have been a coward, hiding her heartbeat. But sadly, the order of their fate is wrong. It could be better if he got to know her a bit later. She would have made up her mind, willing to love again. It is a joke that time make, they managed to meet but not fallen in love. Unable to be sweet, can only laugh bitterly. Because she understands that things would not follow her thought, so that’s why she doesn’t want to admit that she loves him. As her heart hasn’t fully healed, it is not possible for it to give out love. Friendship is the safest distance. If she wanted to be with him for the rest of her life, she could only relay on that fake excuses. Without holding hands, how could they be broke up. She should feel lucky about this rather than sad. It would be great if she could know him earlier. Then she wouldn’t need to experienced her lowest point and only surrounded by love. She wouldn’t be a coward and will enjoy her heartbeat. But sadly the order of their fate is wrong. Knowing her a bit later would have been great. At that time she would have made up her mind, and will have courage to love. A joke that time made, able to meet up but unable to love. Unable to be sweet, can only laugh bitterly. A joke that time made, meeting up became a torment. That day at the corner of the street, how great it would have been id she just walk straight. Hope you will enjoy the song.
