You understand me and embrace my fragility

Safe in a Crazy World

Corrinne May



I try to smile my tears away,

I try to keep my cool.

Oh but one more door gets in my way

I feel like such a fool

Trampled and bitter,

My heart just wants to bleed and stop believing in me.



It feels like nothing is for certain

and that nothing comes for free

When they're lowering the curtain to the theatre of my dreams

I stumble and i crumble and I'm sinking to my knees for you

You cradle me



You keep me flying

You keep me smiling

You keep me safe in a crazy world

You understand me

Embrace my fragility

You keep me safe in a crazy world

And in your arms I find the strength to believe in me again



Noise keeps chasing me

No matter where I go

Oh and life likes pretending that it's on a TV show

When it's hard to tell what's real

From what the world just wants to preach

You are the voice I seek



You keep me flying

You keep me smiling

You keep me safe in a crazy world

You understand me

Embrace my fragility

You keep me safe in a crazy world



'cause when I'm wrapped up in your arms

Nothing else can touch me

What a wonderful way to recharge

I feel like I can breathe again



You keep me flying

You keep me smiling

You keep me safe in a crazy world

You understand me

Embrace my fragility

You keep me safe in a crazy world

And in your arms I find the strength to believe in me again

偶然聽到 Corrinne May 的音樂

很喜歡平實的歌唱風格與歌詞內容

尤其這首 Safe in a Crazy World 更是我今天反覆聽了好幾遍的歌

歌詞中的主題



You keep me safe in a crazy world

And in your arms I find the strength to believe in me again

( 在這個瘋狂的世界中　你會守護著我

　在妳懷中我發現了再次相信自己的力量 )



我想起"美麗境界"這部電影

主角約翰奈許(羅素克洛飾演)因罹患妄想性的精神分裂症

因此完全沉迷在一個妄想的世界中

但他的妻子愛莉莎雖然飽受丈夫瘋狂行為的折磨

但仍然對他不棄不離

劇中當愛莉莎抱著奈許並安慰著他

讓瘋狂的奈許漸漸的能夠接受自己看到的是幻覺

經過和精神病的長期抗爭之後

雖然奈許仍有幻覺

可是他卻能夠跟那些幻覺共處

並且重回大學任教



希望有一天我能夠找到這樣的一個人

互相守護著對方

成為彼此心中的力量
