上次介紹過Metallica的" The Unforgiven "，
今天要介紹的是" The Unforgiven II "。
是的，這是挺少見的三部曲，
時間跨度從首部曲的1991年到III的2008年，
將近十七年的時間啊...!!
MV的拍攝也有相當程度的延續，
可以看出風格相當的類似。
這首The Unforgiven II主要是在描述個人內心情感的層面，
個人感覺特別是對另一半的懊悔。
一個人活了一生，
卻未能對伴侶打開心房。
這讓我想起村上春樹寫的挪威的森林，
" 37歲的我端坐在波音747客機上。
龐大的機體穿過厚重的夾雨雲層，
俯身向漢堡機場降落。
11月砭人肌膚的冷雨，將大地塗得一片陰沉... "
故事的最後，
渡邊旅行歸來，
並選擇了和綠在一起。
看似光明的結局，
其實故事的開頭就說了；
一個人在遙遠的異國機場，
渡邊仍獨自徘徊在森林的迷宮之中，
永遠孤獨而失落的追尋。
我想說不定我也有個叫記憶堆那樣的昏暗場所，
所有的寶貴記憶統統堆在那里而化為一灘爛泥。
The Unforgiven II / Metallica
Lay beside me, tell me what they've done
Speak the words I wanna hear, to make my demons run
The door is locked now, but it's opened if you're true
If you can understand the me, then I can understand the you
Lay beside me, under wicked sky
Through black of day, dark of night, we share this paralyze
The door cracks open but there's no sun shining through
Black heart scarring darker still, but there's no sun shining through
No, there's no sun shining through
No, there's no sun shining...
What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you?
What I've felt, what I've known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there? 'Cause I'm the one who waits for you
Or are you unforgiven, too?
Come lay beside me, this won't hurt, I swear
She loves me not, she loves me still, but she'll never love again
She lay beside me but she'll be there when I'm gone
Black heart scarring darker still, yes, she'll be there when I'm gone
Yes, she'll be there when I'm gone
Dead sure she'll be there...
What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you?
What I've felt, what I've known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there? 'Cause I'm the one who waits for you
Or are you unforgiven, too?
Lay beside me, tell me what I've done
The door is closed, so are your eyes
But now I see the sun, now I see the sun
Yes, now I see it
What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you?
What I've felt, what I've known
So sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there? 'Cause I'm the one who waits,
The one who waits for you....
Oh, what I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you? (so I dub thee Unforgiven)
Oh, what I've felt...
Oh, what I've known...
I take this key (never free...)
And I bury it (never me...) in you
Because you're unforgiven, too...
Never free...
Never me...
'Cause you're unforgiven, too...
Oh
