Another constellation dies
Do what you want 'cause it's your own sky
Just call me when the phone stops ringing
Thanks for coming by
I'm just glad I'm on your good side
Where it's smoldering or freezing
It's never all that easy to decide
This is the land of a thousand words
But it seems so few are worth the breath to say
Except I'll be looking after my own world
And you just keep on saving the day
I'll try to stay but it's in vain when you're far
I'm on the run to wherever you are
And that's the nature of the chase
You fall so far behind you end in first place
Pass the torch this time we're running to each's own regret
There'sno harm in playing hard to get
Boundlessness deceives me
Baby you may turn the corner yet
This is the land of a thousand words
But it seems so few are worth the breath to say
Except I'll be looking after my own world
And you just keep on saving the day
I'll try to stay but it's in vain when you're far
I'm on the run to wherever you are
I'm a gonna do everything I say
Tried to stay but time's running out
But now I'm on my way
올해 들어 가장 많이 들은 씨디 중에 하나가 Scissor Sisters 의 2집 Ta-Dah 입니다.
전곡이 다 좋지만 그중 저는 특히 3,4,5번을 좋아하는데
한곡만 꼽자면 단연 5번 트랙, land of a thousand words..
이 앨범에 있는 유일한 발라드풍의 곡이긴 한데,
가사도 마음에 와닿고 멜로디도 어떤 진실되고도 소박한 고백의 느낌이 있어 좋았어요.
그리고 10번 the other side 도 좋아요, 헐렁하면서도 노련하게 넘어가는 느낌으로.
세상엔 수없이 많은 말들이 있지
그렇지만 정말로 꼭 해야만 하는 말은 많지 않아
나의 세계를 지켜나가겠다는 것
네가 힘든 시간을 잘 견뎌나갈 수 있길
