林肯公園的 In the End 歌詞表達的含義是什麼？

01-06

這首歌是我最喜歡聽的英文歌曲之一。

網易雲音樂聽見好時光

大概是一種無力的感覺。世間有太多的事情，不是我們常人玩命努力就能做好，盡完人事之後還要聽天命呢。不斷地放棄了太多不該輕易放棄的，堅持了太多不值得堅持的，青春就在這種一種循環中逐漸流逝。然後，經歷過了足夠的成功，失敗和滄桑，青春不再，歲月難回，了解到自己只是滄海一粟，被迫重新思考人生。曾經那些考試失敗，失戀，失業等等打擊，都變得淡然，不再重要，好像人生只是一個不斷重複製造故事然後講故事的過程，我們早晚要變成別人的故事。大部分故事裡，王子和公主最後沒有在一起幸福的生活，騎士也沒有精彩地屠龍，我們只是日復一日地重複著昨天的寂寞和心跳。就像歌詞高潮那樣：

I put my trust in you

你曾經是我最後全部的信任與希望

Pushed as far as I can go

所以我從不退縮一往無前　

For all this

對這一切

There"s only one thing you should know

你只需知

I tried so hard

曾經我勇往直前義無反顧

And got so far

堅持到底

But in the end

到頭來

It doesn"t even matter

然並軟

I had to fall

後來我逐漸釋然

To lose it all

身心淪陷

But in the end

結果是

It doesn"t even matter

一切再毫無意義

然並卵

I try so hard，and get so far →it doesn"t even matter

I had to fall,to lose it all→it doesn"t even matter

一塊生牛排，它立志要把自己培養成一隻活生生的牛，會走路，會吃草，要住最好的牛棚

現實是，牛排被煎完一面又被翻過來煎另一面，一面是try so hard，一面是had to fall，最後依然是it doesn"t even matter，外焦里嫩。

就像肖申克這部電影里，監獄只是一個形式上的存在，真正的監獄在心裏面，它束縛著人讓人不自由：

These walls are kind of funny like that. First you hate them, then you get used to them. Enough time passed, get so you depend on them. That"s institutionalized.

這是Red的監獄。

對red的三次審問很明顯的證明了這一點：

Officer: You feel you"ve been

rehabilitated?

Red: Rehabilitated?

Well, now, let me see.

I dun have any idea what that means.

Officer: It means you r ready to rejoin society...

Red: I know what u think it means, sonny.

To me it"s just a made-up word. A politican"s word so that...

young fellas like yourself can wear a suit and a tie and have a job.

What do you really want to know.

Am I sorry for what I did?

Officer: Well, Are you?

Red: There is not a day goes by I don"t feel regret.

Not because I"m in here or because you think I should.

I look back on the way I was then.. a young... stupid kid who commited that terrible crime

I wanna talk to him. I want to try and talk some sense to him. Tell him the things are.

But I can"t. That kid"s long gone...and this old man is all that"s left. I got to live with that.

Reihabilitated?

It"s just a bullshit word.

你看，前兩次Red雖然確有悔過之意，但心裡那座監獄還在。

第三次，當他說出

It"s just a bullshit word，心中的監獄就已蕩然無存

所以，他出獄了。

即使

I try so hard，and get so far，but in

the end ，it doesn"t even matter

又何妨呢？

我中學時一直以為這是一首勵志歌曲 0.0

"我那麼努力, 走了很遠, 到最後發現, 當初那個巨大的困難早已不是個事兒了"

I try so hard, and got so far. But in the end, it doesn"t even matter.

色即是空，空即是色
