今天雨下的很大。在四川北路走完三家商场,还是找不到一双称心的匡威。早知如此就该在西单买下那双小黑。仍是牙龈严重发炎,头痛无比,低烧不退。头孢一粒一粒吃下去。
在热风里面闲逛,突然听到了《Heal the World》。一瞬间心里很钝痛。在这样阴郁的下午,人来人往落雨的街头,放一首温暖的歌曲,像是一场盛大而静穆的纪念。无论在世界的任何角落,会有那么一些人,心中的一部分也跟随着死去了。
Heal the world. Make it a better place.
第一次听这首歌是在某节英语课上,范烨让我们听写歌词。时隔几年,竟已经物是人非。
对于我这一代人来说,或许对于Michael Jackson还不至于有多么深厚的感情。或许有一瞬间,我认为那又是一个不懂得自爱的公众人物的必然结局。记得HIT上面曾经有一篇罗列摇滚明星的死亡方式。不外乎,吸毒过量致死,被歌迷枪杀,因呕吐物窒息而死,在家中自杀……
曾几何时,或许我还会嗤之以鼻。然而当身边挚爱的歌星演员在这些年中接二连三地撒手人寰之后,才初次尝到这种种的悲楚。当一众歌迷把Kurt Cobain当作神来侍奉,把他的遗书当作圣经来背诵的时候,他背后的各中辛酸绝望,怎又是普通人可以理解的。
他们已经背负了太多而活着了。
Hide那样的死法,哥哥那样的死法,Heath Ledger那样的死法。重于泰山或轻于鸿毛,又有什么关系呢?
还有我爱了十年的泉水姐姐,还那样美丽年轻的她。至今仍不愿相信她已经不在了。
想起《甜蜜蜜》的结尾,或许我当时的眼泪全部都是为邓丽君的死而流。
我竟然如此悲伤。我不知道。我会去听他的歌,以前从来没有好好听过Michael Jackson的歌。
因为死去的人要在活着的人心中继续生存下去。
May you rest at peace.
《Heal the World》
There's a place in your heart
And I know that it is love
And this place could be much brighter than tomorrow
And if you really try
You'll find there's no need to cry
In this place you'll feel there's no hurt or sorrow
There are ways to get there
If you care enough for the living
Make a little space
Make a better place...
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me
If you want to know why
There's a love that cannot lie
Love is strong
It only cares of joyful giving
If we try
We shall see
In this bliss
We cannot feel fear or dread
We stop existing and start living
Then it feels that always
Love's enough for us growing
So make a better world
Make a better world...
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me
And the dream we were conceived in
Will reveal a joyful face
And the world we once believed in
Will shine again in grace
Then why do we keep strangling life
Wound this earth
Crucify its soul
Though it's plain to see
This world is heavenly be God's glow
We could fly so high
Let our spirits never die
In my heart I feel you are all my brothers
Create a world with no fear
Together we cry happy tears
See the nations turn their swords into plowshares
We could really get there
If you cared enough for the living
Make a little space
To make a better place...
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me
You and for me
You and for me
You and for me
You and for me
You and for me
You and for me
You and for me
You and for me
You and for me
You and for me
