展翅,在夕阳的轮廓里

幻想,是何等伟大的事业
将一代人卷入那空灵之中
在苏醒的时候,才发觉,
原来他们已被时间抛在了后头,成为了历史
黑格尔说得对:
密涅瓦的猫头鹰只在黄昏起飞
可叹的是,
世人只知以自己的生理年龄来判断个人思想的时辰……

[Kpop] 东方神起 - Unforgettable






DBSK, a kpop group which in my Korean friend's words "is for high school students". However this group is one with what we call "Intelligentsia conscience".. Imagine mentioning nuclear weapons in pop songs.. And moving from social criticism to social construction with the song "O正反合", coming from Hegel's 正题-反题-合题。I guess these guys deserve applause for taking on a proactive role in Korea, a generally political-apathetic society.

But of course, this song here is STILL a love song. The lyrics seem to capture a kind of feeling which is universal to those with a failed relationship.

Lyrics translated as below:

A lie, it was all a lie
Those words that time will make me forget you are a lie
The pain from the separation has suppressed my heart a little
But my feelings for you are ever the same
I never thought it’d be easy but
Even though a lot of time passed
It’s still awkward without you here

I still love you and I still want you
I won’t ever be okay without you
Even if I seem attached
This is me
I didn’t even know
You are all I long for

A lie, it was all a lie
Those words that time will make me forget you are a lie
I just said those words because
I thought I’d look pathetic
Because of my trifling pride
I’ve never once forgotten you
When I think about a bad habit I’ve started
I try to forget but
I still miss you

I still love you and I still want you
I won’t ever be okay without you
Even if I seem attached
This is me
I didn’t even know
You are all I long for

I’ve ever stopped loving you
My feelings for you have never changed
No, my heart keeps growing
Like my love for you
I just try and keep still the moments
When we were happily together

You had a hard time in my embrace
And it’s not until after I’ve let you go can I think and see clearly
But I love you everyday
I’m still waiting for you
Like I’ve always done
See you once again, my love
