• The Connoisseur of Great Excuse

      

      Connoisseur of Great Excuse是Damien Rice去年底出的单曲,收录在合集Gasoline Rainbows里,除了旋律一如既往的治愈,歌词也一如既往的虐心。而我放在Mp3里一直单曲循环,不知不觉就听了两个多星期。

          Of all the foolish things to do
      I became a connoisseur of great excuse
      And my pessimistic past the blame
      Will never make this go away

      Of all the foolish things I’ve said
      That keep me sleepy almost dead
      I’m sorry if I’ve let you down
      My eyes were closed, they’re open now

      I’m waking up
      I am waking up
      I am waking up
      I awake
      
      And this has all been said before
      I’ve listened but then I ignored
      My ears grew deaf
      My head gave up

          The junkie knows not when to stop
      Of all the foolish alibis
      The constipated push for why
      I’ve had a blanket pulled over my eyes
      Oh hush now baby don’t you cry

      I’m waking up
      I am waking up
      I am waking up
      I’m awake
      
      Coming *repeat chorus
      I’m ready *repeat chorus
      Dada da da da daaa
