Mistakes We Knew We Were Making

如果，我是说如果。

如果全世界的人都死光光，如果身边的人全部都不见了，我会不会觉得更自由？

像已经进入人生最后阶段的老人，不需要去管父母亲和家人的反对，好朋友的劝告、眼光，世俗的压力，去做他想要做的，得到他想要的。因为最后已经只剩下自己和那个他一直都想要得到的梦想。

即使那样东西会让他觉得很痛苦，可是那是他想要的。再多的困难，就算要同归一尽都无所谓。

如果当时不是他们，可能……可能就不会分开了。都是那些压力……



不过说回来，能够经过这一切活到一把年纪的人，白发的时候应该已经不再执着与这些了吧。

最多也只是后悔而已，但是已经没有力气和冲动去做他曾经想要做的事了。

十年后的我们所后悔的，大多都是我们没有做过的事，而不是那些曾经做过的事。如果不相信的话，可以去问一问街上的老人。

在这个世上可以真正做出改变的人，是那些还不怕死，把懂事的人嘴里的劝告当耳边风，还没有失去那股冲动的年轻人。勇敢闯祸，努力挥霍，做尽越轨的事的人。

当然这很危险，他可能成为监狱里的一分子。或者他也可能成为创新天才。



我家里的那两个结婚的时候，我的婆婆因为坚持反对他们在一起而没有参加他们的婚礼。那个女的一直很不愿意继续下去，因为婆家那里会给她很多压力，早就说不想嫁了。可是那个男的从来没有答应过分手。还好最后我还是出现了，后来还多了一个妹妹。如果当时他放手的话，我们两姐妹就不可能存在了。

对啊，难道你们真的傻得以为只有韩剧和台剧才会发生这种事吗？也难怪，戏看得太多，就算是真实的也以为是虚假的，什么都不相信了。我们都是先从戏剧里认识爱情的，然后在印象里摸索。不相信没关系，而且人还会到处散播这种想法，结果本来明白自己想要的那群最后都被弄成麻木，什么都不要了。因为不敢，也不再相信。因为他们说那是错的，那是愚蠢，没有未来的。



当时候他们在一起的决定在别人眼里，甚至在自己的眼里都是一个mistake.

But what comes after a mistake?

Jail? Fleeing? Acceptance? Or?


Do we choose to make mistakes even when we know they are mistakes?

If only we know those are the mistakes that work.



这首歌也是关于一个mistake,是发生在主唱者还在高中的时候的一个mistake. One of the songs I like.



We made plans to be unbreakable, love was all we knew.
No insurance for the unthinkable, blindly get us through.
We've been searching for a lifetime - short as it may seem.
Riding on the fumes that spark us, while igniting dreams.

Mistakes we knew we were making.
Mistakes we knew we were making.
Don't think about chances we're taking,
Mistakes we knew...
do da da da da...
do da da da da...

Driving in the rain to the hospital quiet aches intense.
What at once just seemed the impossible now makes perfect sense.
We held hands to face the uncomfortable cold and lonely room.
Magazines and empty distractions barely got us through.

Mistakes we knew we were making.
Mistakes we knew we were making.
Don't think about chances we're taking,
Mistakes we knew...
do da da da da...
do da da da da...

And when we try to think of the life inside,
we found ourselves looking at the world through new eyes.

What can now be said, oh, little one on the other side?
Dance until the band stops playing, sing with all your might.

Mistakes we knew we were making.
Mistakes we knew we were making.
Don't think about chances we're taking,
Don't think about rules we were breaking.
Mistakes we knew...

The list goes on and on.
The list goes on and on.
The list goes on and on...
