English translation of 悟 ~ 刘德华 (Enlightenment ~ Andy Lau)

An unconditional heart brings great blessings with no boundary
Without boundaries, our fragile lives are all connected through love
Why do you turn a blind eye and let yourselves be restricted by the status quo?
Willingly, I finally come to my senses to realize my character and my emptiness

Let go of your inverted dreams, let go of the things which will one day fade away
Let go of your leisure, desire, pleasure, and let go of suspense
With one more thing in hand, more danger will follow
With less things, greed will lessen as well
If this is fate, no matter how bitter life can be you are always contented
Yet if it isn’t, just bury this love in your heart
In this live of ours, everything’s interconnected, and it takes only a split second to look back
Let me plant a seed of good will and walk down this road of life together with you

Only someone whose heart is not bounded can accomplish great things
Only someone whose heart does not have a story is indigenous above all
I’ve considered heaven and earth, and I’ve considered everything from my past
Yet I still cannot make out the days of life and death
Do not hate your eyes which deceive you
Do not resent, for happiness is not far away
As thoughts are built around your desires, it only takes a split second to decide between good and evil
With a heart of repentance, let me walk down this road of life together with you

No matter how firm your lies may be, they cannot escape the eyes of God
Before dawn, your heart is being dragged further away
As the clouds are able to blind our eyes in an instant, so do human hearts change
Bitterness have been accumulated since long before, and is bound to keep coming

An unconditional heart brings great blessings with no boundary
Without boundaries, our fragile lives are all connected through love
Yet human beings turn a blind eye and let themselves be restricted by the status quo
Willingly, I finally come to my senses to realize my character and my emptiness
In pure simplicity, let me walk down this road of life together with you


It's the theme song of the movie Shaolin. Such a great movie. :D

So Close ~ Jon MacLaughlin

You're in my arms
And all the world is calm
The music playing on for only two
So close together
And when I'm with you
So close to feeling alive

A life goes by
Romantic dreams will stop
So I bid mine goodbye and never knew
So close was waiting, waiting here with you
And now forever I know
All that I wanted to hold you
So close

So close to reaching that famous happy end
Almost believing this was not pretend
And now you're beside me and look how far we've come
So far we are so close How could I face the faceless days
If I should lose you now?
We're so close
To reaching that famous happy end
And almost believing this was not pretend
Let's go on dreaming for we know we are
So close
So close
And still so far

And here is my latest obsession.

"Monster" ~ Paramore

You were my conscience,
so solid, now you're like water,
and we started drowning,
not like we'd sink any further,
but I let my heart go,
it's somewhere down at the bottom,
but I'll get a new one,
and come back for the hope that you've stolen

I'll stop the whole world,
I'll stop the whole world from turning into a monster,
eating us alive,
don't you ever wonder how we survive?
Now that you're gone,
the world is ours

I'm only human,
I've got a skeleton in me,
but I'm not the villain,
despite what you're always preaching,
call me a traitor,
I'm just collecting your victims,
and they're getting stronger,
I hear them calling,
calling, calling!

I'll stop the whole world,
I'll stop the whole world from turning into a monster,
eating us alive,
don't you ever wonder how we survive?
Now that you're gone,
the world is ours

Well you thought of strength and solutions,
but I like the tension,
and not always knowing the answers,
and you're gonna lose it,
you're gonna lose it!

I'll stop the whole world,
I'll stop the whole world from turning into a monster,
eating us alive,
don't you ever wonder how we survive?
Now that you're gone,
the world,

I'll stop the whole world,
I'll stop the whole world from turning into a monster,
eating us alive,
don't you ever wonder how we survive?
Now that you're gone,
the world is ours.
Does your heart have a beat?

I Need a Girl ~ Taeyang (feat G-Dragon)

I’m tired of being alone,
I’m sick of being single,
I think I need me a girl.
I need a girl like...

One that speaks without thinking
Not a little child, but one that will embrace me
Not a girl that plays around sometimes when she’s bored
But one that will only love me
Even if she stays still and guys hand her their phone
That kind of girl that will proudly take out and show my picture

Girl, I need a girl
Pretty no matter what she does
A pretty body, too
Girl, I need a girl
Baby, I need you
Girl, you need me, too

A kind of girl that looks better in jeans than a skirt
A girl that will eat the kimchi fried rice that I make instead
A girl who looks young even though she’s old
I like that kind of girl
(Know what I mean)

A girl that acts shy, but knows how to be bold
Always pretends to careful of her behavior
But when you’re with her
Hmm, y’all know what I’m talking about

Girl, I need a girl
Pretty no matter what she does
A pretty body, too
Girl, I need a girl
I like this kind of girl

Looks are not an issue
But a cute girl who knows style
Even though our hobbies are different
Our tastes are the same
A girl that I can relate to a lot
When we watch movies or listen to music

(Yes!) I love girls, girls I do adore
In front of people, she has principles as she plays
In front of me, she’s like “A’ing, I don’t know”

A voice that wakes me up in the morning
(Morning Kiss) I want to start the day
I’ll learn on your knees at night
As I listen to a lullaby
I want to dream of you

Make my heart race again
Make me able to create sweet songs again

You know don’t need no more
It’s just not like that
You’re the person I want to give my heart to

Girl, I need a girl
Girl, I get, gotta make you’re mine
I’m treat you right, baby

Girl, I need a girl
Pretty no matter what she does
A pretty body, too
Girl,, I need a girl
Baby, I need you
Girl, you need me too

Girl, I need a girl
Girl, I need a girl

Girl, are you listening to me?
Baby, I need you
Girl, you need me, too

Girl, I need a girl

I Can Feel a Hot One - Manchester Orchestra

I could feel a hot one taking me down
For a moment, I could feel the force
Fainted to the point of tears
And you were holding on to make a point
What's the point?

I'm but a clean man, stable and alone man
Make it so I won't have to try
The faces always stay the same
So I face the fact that I'm just fine
I said that I'm just fine

I remember, head down,
After you had found out
Manna is a heck of a drug
And I need a little more, I think
Because enough is never quite enough
What's enough?

I took it like a grown man crying on the pavement
Hoping you would show your face
But I haven't heard a thing you've said
In at least a couple hundred days
What'd you say?

I was in the front seat, shaking it out
And I was asking if you felt alright
I never want to hear the truth
I want to hear your voice, it sounded fine
My voice, it sounded fine

I could feel my heartbeat taking me down
And for the moment, I would sleep alright
I'm dealing with a selfish fear
To keep me up another restless night
Another restless night

The blood was dry, it was sober
The feeling of audible cracks
And I could tell it was over
From the curtains that hung from your neck

And I realized that then you were perfect
And my teeth ripping out of my head
And it looked like a painting I once knew
Back when my thoughts weren't entirely intact

To pray for what I thought were angels
Ended up being ambulances
And the Lord showed me dreams of my daughter
She was crying inside your stomach

And I felt love again
Boring signature is boring

A beaut' from Keane's new album.

Day Will Come - Keane

The winter night has wrapped a rag around your eyes
And stolen your sight

Oh you seem so far away
I hope you'll find your way back someday
I miss you, I miss you

Some days set your world on fire
And some days they sink like stones
That’s when your heart will cry out
Until your body is numb
And the night will try to tempt you
But the day will come

We dream hard, we shoot high
Sometimes our fingers graze the sky
But we can’t hold on

Some days set your world on fire
And some days they sink like stones
That’s when your heart will cry out
Until your body is numb
And the night will try to tempt you
But the day will come

Brother don’t hang your head
Until your distance is run
‘Cause though it seems so far away
You know the day will come

Some days set your world on fire
And some days they sink like stones
That’s when your heart can cry out
Until your body is numb
And the night will try to tempt you
But the day will come

Brother don’t hang your head
Until your distance is run
‘Cause though it seems so far away
You know the day will come

Rat Poison ~ Apolluon

Creeping, waiting, paranoid at every turn
Misstep, your trap, now it seems I'll never learn
Your touch, ambush, helpless though I know the truth
Last kiss, final wish, I only want to escape you

Poison me
I can't breathe
Watch me bleed
Sinfully
Not the worst
In this town
But honestly
you're the only one that brings me down

Gangster, vandal, medieval to the very core
Revenge, expunge, anything to settle the score
Fat cat, sewer rat, everything is never enough
You spray, I pray, I only want to get back up

Poison me
I can't breathe
Watch me bleed
Sinfully
Not the worst
In this town
But honestly
you're the only one that gets me down

Poison me
I can't breathe
Watch me bleed
Sinfully
Thought I'd reach
The end safely
Now I see
I'm twitching twitching twitching now

I leave from softball practice every night
It's getting dark, but the "golden arches" light up the way
I turn the corner at the traffic light
I count my money and then I rehearse what I'm going to say

"i'd like an order of fries, a quarter-pounder with cheese,
I love the light in your eyes, will you go out with me please? "

Chorus:
I am in love with a mcdonalds girl
She has a smile of innocence so tender and warm
I am in love with a mcdonalds girl
She is an angel in a polyester uniform


She doesn't try to impress anyone
She doesn't act all tough like all the other girls that I know
She don't treat me like a simpleton
She's not ashamed to be the only other virgin I know
When my hamburger's cold, I get up ready to go,
She's only fifteen years old, and I'm in love with her soul

She's got a gold tooth, you know she's hardcore
She'll show you a good time, then she'll show you the door...boy!

Chorus


There she stands behind the register
She's taking orders from the saddle river little league
If they knew how much I wanted her
Their home-room teachers would have to send them home for a week

As I head through the door, the movement catches her eye,
My heart begins to soar, she smiles, she waves good-bye, good-bye
Good-bye, good byeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Chorus

Uno, dos, tres, quatro
Big mac, filet o fish, quarter pounder, french fries
Icey coke, thick shakes, sundaes and apple pies
Sing that song of taste
You can only find at one place: mcdonalds

Chorus


"McDonald's Girl" sung by Barenaked Ladies, written by Dean Friedman.

Do you want to POKéMON with me?
Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is an eternal God, the creator of the whole earth. He does not get tired or weary; there is no limit to his wisdom.

SID – Rain

English translation:
June’s lies and the truth in front of my eyes are put away in sepia tones
Nestling close to one another, warmth; I don’t understand those things anymore

“You’ll be fine on your own… right?” you said, forcing it upon me and then you said goodbye
If it’s going to be that kind of consolation then I should be tired of hearing it by now

Endlessly ringing; the merciless memories seem to have no intention of forgiving me
If i close my eyes they will only grow surrounding me at a distance you laugh

Will the rain ever stop, I wonder? For a pretty long time now it’s been cold
Why does the rain choose me? Why does it choose me who has nowhere to escape to?

Time intrudes on the new morning I finally found
The direction I face is not the future I kept chasing after the past

You, who gave me a new start by your consolations and the hateful and cowardly me
It’s about time… Fumbling, my troubles spill down my tired cheeks

Eyes that don’t want to know the past and fingers that can wash it all away
Scars heal at a gentle pace; at an unreachable distance that seems to be within reach

Will the rain ever stop, I wonder? For a pretty long time now it’s been cold
Why does the rain choose me? I wonder if it’s ok to let it cover me

The rain keeps on falling today as well knowing no end
While we quietly nestle together under the umbrella I hold

Japanese:

Rokugatsu no uso  me no mae no hontou  sepia ni shimaikomi
Yorisou to ka  nukumori to ka  wakaranaku natteta

“Kimi wa hitori de heiki dakara… ne” to  oshitsukete  sayonara
Sono tagui no kiyasume nara  kikiakita hazu na no ni

Nariyamanai  youshanai omoidetachi wa  yurushitekuresou ni mo nai
Me wo tojireba  ikioi wa masu bakari de  toomaki de  kimi ga warau

Ame wa  itsuka yamu no deshou  zuibun nagai aida  tsumetai
Ame wa  doushite boku wo erabu no  nigeba no nai  boku wo erabu no

Yatto mitsuketa  atarashii asa wa  tsukihi ga jama wo suru
Mukau saki wa  ”tsugi” ja nakute  ”sugi” bakari oikaketa

Nagusame kara  kikkake wo kureta kimi to  urameshiku  kowagari na boku
Sorosoro ka na  tesaguri  tsukareta hou wo  kattou ga koboreochiru

Kako wo shiritagaranai hitomi  arainagashite kureru yubi
Yasashii hohaba de  iyasu kizuato  todokisou de  todokanai kyori

Ame wa  itsuka yamu no deshou  zuibun nagai aida  tsumetai
Ame wa  doushite boku wo erabu no  tsutsumarete  ii ka na

Ame wa  yamu koto wo shirazu ni  kyou mo furitsuzuku keredo
Sotto  sashidashita kasa no naka de  nukumori ni  yorisoi nagara

Brilliant song I love at the moment, swearing has been censored (I apologise if I missed any)

Freak Like Me by Halestorm!

I’m on the train that’s pullin the sick and twisted,
Makin the most of the ride before we get arrested,
We’re all wasted,
And we’re not going home tonight.

Covered in black we lack the social graces,
Just like an animal we crawl out of our cages,
They can’t tame us,
So if you’re one of us, get on the bus

If you’re a freak like me,
Wave your flag!
If you’re a freak like me,
Get off your propane!
It’s our time now,
To let it all hang out

So shout if you’re a freak like me,
You were born to burn,
This is no disease you don’t need a cure!
It’s our time now to come out!
If you’re a freak like me!
If you’re a freak like me!

We’re underground but we will not surrender,
We’re gonna give them something to remember, yeah,
So write your name in gasoline,
And set that s**t on fire

If you’re a freak like me,
Wave your flag!
If you’re a freak like me,
Get off your propane!
It’s our time now,
To let it all hang out

So shout if you’re a freak like me,
Don’t apologize,
They can’t hold you down,
You were born to rise!
It’s our time now to come out!

If you’re a freak like me
If you’re a freak like me
Are you a freak like me?
Are you a freak, like, me?!

If you’re a freak like me,
Wave your flag!
If you’re a freak like me,
Get off your propane!
It’s our time now,
To let it all hang out

So shout if you’re a freak like me,
Don’t apologize,
They can’t hold you down,
You were born to rise!
It’s our time now to come out!
If you’re a freak like me!
If you’re a freak like me!
If you’re a freak like me!
If you’re a freak like me!
If you’re a freak like me!

When you loved me so.

And now you need to know.

And I can't wait till you see.

Would you give it to me?

Does that make you want me baby?
Does that make you love me baby?
Does that make you want me baby?

Oh, mercy.
Hello.
Oh yeah.
