The Chainsmokers & Coldplay – Something Just Like This 歌詞.單字解釋

The Chainsmokers & Coldplay – Something Just Like This

歌詞

I’ve been reading books of old
The legends and the myths
Achilles and his gold
Hercules and his gifts
Spider-Man’s control
And Batman with his fists
And clearly I don’t see myself up on that list

But she said, “Where’d you wanna go?
How much you wanna risk?
I’m not looking for somebody with some superhuman gifts
Some superhero
Some fairy tale bliss
Just something I can turn to
Somebody I can kiss
I want something just like this"

Do-do-doo, do-do-doo, do-do-doo
Oh, I want something just like this
Do-do-doo, do-do-doo, do-do-doo

Oh, I want something just like this

I want something just like this

I’ve been reading books of old
The legends and the myths
The testaments they told
The moon and its eclipse
And Superman unrolls a suit before he lifts
But I’m not the kind of person that it fits

She said, “Where’d you wanna go?
How much you wanna risk?
I’m not looking for somebody with some superhuman gifts
Some superhero
Some fairy tale bliss
Just something I can turn to
Somebody I can miss"

I want something just like this

I want something just like this

Oh, I want something just like this

Do-do-doo, do-do-doo, do-do-doo
Oh, I want something just like this
Do-do-doo, do-do-doo, do-do-doo

Where’d you wanna go?
How much you wanna risk?
I’m not looking for somebody with some superhuman gifts
Some superhero
Some fairy tale bliss
Just something I can turn to
Somebody I can kiss
I want something just like this

Oh, I want something just like this

Oh, I want something just like this

Oh, I want something just like this

Alan Walker – Different World 歌詞.單字解釋

feat. Sofia Carson, K-391 & CORSAK

Alan Walker – Different World feat. Sofia Carson, K-391 & CORSAK

歌詞

All we know
Left untold
Beaten by a broken dream
Nothing like what it used to be
(Used to be)

We’ve been chasing our demons down an empty road
Been watching our castle turning into dust
Escaping our shadows just to end up here, once more
And we both know

This is not the world we had in mind
But we got time
We are stuck on answers we can’t find
But we got time

And even though we might have lost tonight
The skyline reminds us of a different time
This is not the world we had in mind
But we got time

Broken smile, tired eyes
I can feel your longing heart
Call my name, howling from afar

We’ve been fighting our demons just to stay afloat
Been building a castle just to watch it fall
Been running forever just to end up here, once more
And now we know

This is not the world we had in mind
But we got time
We are stuck on answers we can’t find
But we got time

And even though we might have lost tonight
The skyline reminds us of a different time
This is not the world we had in mind
But we got time

Take me back
Back to the mountainside
Under the Northern Lights
Chasing the stars

Take me back
Back to the mountainside
When we were full of life
Back to the start
And we both know that

This is not the world we had in mind
But we got time
We are stuck on answers we can’t find
But we got time

And even though we might have lost tonight
The skyline reminds us of a different time
This is not the world we had in mind
But we got time

Hawk Nelson – Sold Out 歌詞.單字解釋

Hawk Nelson – Sold Out

歌詞

I ain’t like no one you met before
I’m running for the front
When they’re all running for the door
And I won’t sit down won’t back out
You can’t ever shut me up
‘Cause I’m on a mission
And I won’t quit now

In a world full of followers
I’ll be a leader
In a world full of doubters
I’ll be a believer
I’m stepping out without a hesitation
Because the battle’s already been won

I’m sold out
I’m no longer living
Just for myself
Running after Jesus
With my whole heart
And now I’m ready to shout
I am sold out
I’m sold out
With every single
Step that I take now
With every drop of blood
Left in my veins
I’m gonna be making it count
I am sold out

This ain’t just some temporary phase
You can’t face this kind of grace
And leave the way you came
This is permanent with intent
And there won’t be no stopping it now
I’m on a mission and it’s heaven sent

In a world full of followers
I’ll be a leader
In a world full of doubters
I’ll be a believer
I’m stepping out without a hesitation
‘Cause my soul is like a stadium

And I’m sold out
I’m no longer living
Just for myself
Running after Jesus
With my whole heart
And now I’m ready to shout
I am sold out
I’m sold out
With every single
Step that I take now
With every drop of blood
Left in my veins
I’m gonna be making it count
I am sold out

No trials coming against me
Could put a dent in my passion
They’re just an opportunity
To put my faith into action

In a world full of followers
I’ll be a leader
In a world full of doubters
I’ll be a believer
I’m stepping out without a hesitation
I ain’t got nothing left to be afraid of

I’m sold out
I’m no longer living
Just for myself
Running after Jesus
With my whole heart
And now I’m ready to shout
I am sold out
I’m sold out
With every single
Step that I take now
With every drop of blood
Left in my veins
I’m gonna be making it count
I am sold out

Idina Menzel – Let it go 歌詞.單字解釋

Idina Menzel – Let it go

歌詞

The snow glows white on the mountain tonight
Not a footprint to be seen
A kingdom of isolation
And it looks like I’m the queen

The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside
Couldn’t keep it in, heaven knows I’ve tried
Don’t let them in, don’t let them see
Be the good girl you always have to be
Conceal, don’t feel, don’t let them know
Well, now they know

Let it go, let it go
Can’t hold it back anymore
Let it go, let it go
Turn away and slam the door
I don’t care what they’re going to say
Let the storm rage on
The cold never bothered me anyway

It’s funny how some distance makes everything seem small
And the fears that once controlled me can’t get to me at all
It’s time to see what I can do
To test the limits and break through
No right, no wrong, no rules for me
I’m free

Let it go, let it go
I am one with the wind and sky
Let it go, let it go
You’ll never see me cry
Here I stand and here I stay
Let the storm rage on

My power flurries through the air into the ground
My soul is spiraling in frozen fractals all around
And one thought crystallizes like an icy blast
I’m never going back, the past is in the past

Let it go, let it go
When I’ll rise like the break of dawn
Let it go, let it go
That perfect girl is gone
Here I stand in the light of day
Let the storm rage on
The cold never bothered me anyway

Taylor Swift – Blank Space 歌詞.單字解釋

Taylor Swift – Blank Space

歌詞

Nice to meet you, where you been?
I could show you incredible things
Magic, madness, heaven, sin
Saw you there and I thought
“Oh, my God, look at that face
You look like my next mistake
Love’s a game, wanna play?" Ay

New money, suit and tie
I can read you like a magazine
Ain’t it funny rumors fly
And I know you heard about me
So hey, let’s be friends
I’m dying to see how this one ends
Grab your passport and my hand
I can make the bad guys good for a weekend

So it’s gonna be forever
Or it’s gonna go down in flames
You can tell me when it’s over, mmh

If the high was worth the pain
Got a long list of ex-lovers
They’ll tell you I’m insane
‘Cause you know I love the players
And you love the game

‘Cause we’re young and we’re reckless
We’ll take this way too far
It’ll leave you breathless
Or with a nasty scar
Got a long list of ex-lovers
They’ll tell you I’m insane
But I’ve got a blank space, baby
And I’ll write your name

Cherry lips, crystal skies
I could show you incredible things
Stolen kisses, pretty lies
You’re the King, baby, I’m your Queen
Find out what you want
Be that girl for a month
Wait, the worst is yet to come, oh, no

Screaming, crying, perfect storms
I can make all the tables turn
Rose garden filled with thorns
Keep you second guessing like
“Oh, my God, who is she?"
I get drunk on jealousy
But you’ll come back each time you leave
‘Cause, darling, I’m a nightmare dressed like a daydream

So it’s gonna be forever
Or it’s gonna go down in flames
You can tell me when it’s over, mmh

If the high was worth the pain
Got a long list of ex-lovers
They’ll tell you I’m insane
‘Cause you know I love the players
And you love the game

‘Cause we’re young and we’re reckless (oh)
We’ll take this way too far
It’ll leave you breathless (oh)
Or with a nasty scar
Got a long list of ex-lovers
They’ll tell you I’m insane (insane)
But I’ve got a blank space, baby
And I’ll write your name

Boys only want love if it’s torture
Don’t say I didn’t say, I didn’t warn ya
Boys only want love if it’s torture
Don’t say I didn’t say, I didn’t warn ya

So it’s gonna be forever
Or it’s gonna go down in flames
You can tell me when it’s over (over)
If the high was worth the pain
Got a long list of ex-lovers
They’ll tell you I’m insane (I’m insane)
‘Cause you know I love the players
And you love the game

‘Cause we’re young and we’re reckless
We’ll take this way too far (ooh)
It’ll leave you breathless, mmh

Or with a nasty scar (leave a nasty scar)
Got a long list of ex-lovers
They’ll tell you I’m insane
But I’ve got a blank space, baby
And I’ll write your name

Girl, I’ve always loved you, oh, but something’s changed
Blame it on time, the road or the ride
But it ain’t the same
It’s a different kind of feeling, not the one I knew
From the sweet of your lips, to how your hand in mine fits
Girl, I’ve always loved you but

I don’t love you like I used to
This gets better every time you kiss me like this
It’s stronger the longer I’m with you
More than every single day before
Didn’t know I could ever love you more than I did
But, baby, I do
I don’t love you like I used to

What we got ain’t got no ending, like a band of solid gold
It’s sweeter with time like strawberry wine
It gets as good as it gets old and
Oh, we thought we knew what it meant way back then
Oh, but I keep fallin’ all in
Higher than I’ve ever been

Oh no
I don’t love you like I used to
This gets better every time you kiss me like this
It’s stronger the longer I’m with you, yeah

Didn’t know I could ever love you more than I did

LeAnn Rimes – The Story

歌詞

All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I’ve been
And how I got to where I am
But these stories don’t mean anything
When you’ve got no one to tell them to
It’s true… I was made for you

I climbed across the mountain tops
Swam all across the ocean blue
I crossed all the lines and I broke all the rules
But baby I broke them all for you
Because even when I was flat broke
You made me feel like a million bucks
You do and I was made for you

You see the smile that’s on my mouth
It’s hiding the words that don’t come out
And all of my friends who think that I’m blessed
They don’t know my head is a mess
No, they don’t know who I really am
And they don’t know what I’ve been through like you do
And I was made for you…

All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I’ve been
And how I got to where I am
But these stories don’t mean anything
When you’ve got no one to tell them to
It’s true… I was made for you

Oh yeah, well it’s true… that
I was made for you.

What working parents really need from workplaces | TED 講稿.單字解釋

講稿

From  https://www.ted.com/series/the_way_we_work

Every parent is a working parent, whether they have a job outside of the home or not.

When Angela shows up at the office, know that Angela has been up for at least three hours, had her hand covered in human excrement, unwedged a small person who has become lodged in between the washing machine and the wall, gotten down on her hands and knees and picked up oatmeal off the carpet. Domestic labor, which is what parenting is and everything that goes along with parenting, it’s not just taking care of a child; it’s keeping a household running, washing dishes, doing laundry, it’s keeping the schedule tight. We again assume that that work will be done by a wife who’s at home.

The reality has progressed beyond where we’re at policy-wise. Most people need multiple sources of income, women want to work outside of the home — we’re still expected to do all of the same things. And so now we outsource a lot of that parenting work to other women, and mainly women of color. We don’t give it financial, cultural value, and so we don’t see it as real work.

Care is really the backbone of our society. That work is what makes all other work possible. So how should we support parents in the workplace?

[Support family leave]

There are only two industrialized countries in the entire world that don’t guarantee some paid family leave, and the United States is one of them. We should be envying Ghana, Brazil, Turkey, Serbia, Japan, the United Kingdom, Norway, the Netherlands, Sweden — we’re lagging behind the world on this. When I say paid family leave, I’m not talking about necessarily just newborn maternity leave. That includes paternity leave, all genders, families that are adopting and welcoming a new child into their home, people bringing foster children into their home, taking care of aging parents. You know, at some point in your life, someone that you love and care about is going to need help. You should have the right to take time to take care of them. People do their best work when they feel seen and supported by the people that they work for. It’s pretty simple.

[Listen to parents]

Being a parent is often seen as a weakness in the workplace. You come back and people make a lot of assumptions about you. You’re not invited to go on work trips because assumptions are made that you don’t want to do that, or you can’t. And that can be really disempowering to people, and it’s really discouraging and it makes them — in a period of time that’s already stressful — can make you feel even worse.

[Talk to parents]

Asking a coworker about how things are going at home or with their kid, making people feel like they don’t have to hide that. “What’s up with your two-year-old?” Ask to see a picture of their child.

[Be flexible]

For parents, the hours between 5-8pm are really crucial. It’s sometimes the only time you really have with your kids. You’re often running to pick them up somewhere or to relieve someone from doing childcare. I would much rather send a few emails at 8:30pm than be on a call at 5pm. And so I think emphasizing and creating a culture of work where it’s the work that gets done, the work is what matters, the end result is what matters, as opposed to tracking time in a traditional way, and opening up the lines of communication around that can be really beneficial. Letting a coworker know that you have their back if they want to say that 4:45 doesn’t work for them as a meeting time, that you’ll step in and say that you can’t do it either, right? Just something to show solidarity.

[Oh yeah … ]

One other thing, as a former breastfeeding mother in an office place — a pumping mother — I should say that if you want to clean out your office fridge every now and then, that is a really beautiful thing to do for a pumping mother, because I used to do that in my office. I would put my little cooler that had breast milk amid like year-old bottles of salad dressing, pad thai that had become petrified, just gross stuff. And no one should have to do that, right? Again, a very, very small thing that makes a big difference in someone’s life.

In striving to be as efficient as possible, as achieving, as productive as possible, we’ve drifted away from this notion of care and parenting being important work. But we need to talk about these things and bring parenting and family life out into the open, because we can’t fix problems that we don’t see. We can’t fix problems that we don’t talk about. It really doesn’t have to be this hard and we can do much more to support people.

Katy Perry – Roar 歌詞.單字解釋

Katy Perry – Roar

歌詞

I used to bite my tongue and hold my breath
Scared to rock the boat and make a mess
So I sat quietly, agreed politely
I guess that I forgot I had a choice
I let you push me past the breaking point
I stood for nothing, so I fell for everything

You held me down, but I got up (hey)
Already brushing off the dust
You hear my voice, you hear that sound
Like thunder, gonna shake the ground
You held me down, but I got up (hey)
Get ready ’cause I’ve had enough
I see it all, I see it now

I got the eye of the tiger, a fighter
Dancing through the fire
‘Cause I am a champion, and you’re gonna hear me roar
Louder, louder than a lion
‘Cause I am a champion, and you’re gonna hear me roar

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
You’re gonna hear me roar

Now I’m floating like a butterfly
Stinging like a bee, I earned my stripes
I went from zero, to my own hero

You held me down, but I got up (hey)
Already brushing off the dust
You hear my voice, you hear that sound
Like thunder, gonna shake the ground
You held me down, but I got up (hey)
Get ready ’cause I’ve had enough
I see it all, I see it now

I got the eye of the tiger, a fighter
Dancing through the fire
‘Cause I am a champion, and you’re gonna hear me roar
Louder, louder than a lion
‘Cause I am a champion, and you’re gonna hear me roar

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
You’re gonna hear me roar

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (you’ll hear me roar)
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
You’re gonna hear me roar

Roar, roar, roar, roar, roar

I got the eye of the tiger, a fighter
Dancing through the fire
‘Cause I am a champion, and you’re gonna hear me roar
Louder, louder than a lion
‘Cause I am a champion, and you’re gonna hear me roar

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (yeah)
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
You’re gonna hear me roar

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (you’ll hear me roar)
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
You’re gonna hear me roar
