歌曲歌詞
When I saw the signs I shoulda let you go
Yeah yeah
But I kept you beside me
And if I held you back at least I held you close
Yeah
Should have known you were lonely
I know things will never be the same
Time we lost will never be replaced
I'm the reason you forgot to love
So don't be scared to live again
Be scared to live again
No don't be scared to live again
Be scared to live again
You always miss the chance to fall for someone else
Uh uh
'Cause your heart only knows me
They try to win your love but there was nothing left
Uh
They just made you feel lonely
Hey
I am not the man I used to be
Did some things I couldn't let you see
Refuse to be the one who taints your heart
So don't be scared to live again
Be scared to live again
No don't be scared to live again
Be scared to live again
Hey
I hope you know that I hope you know that
I've been praying that you find yourself
I hope you know that I hope you know that
We fell apart right from the start
I should have made you my only
When it's said and done
So don't be scared to live again
Be scared to live again
I said don't be scared to live again
Be scared to live again
Oh
I hope you know that I hope you know that
I've been praying that you find yourself
I hope you know that I hope you know that
We fell apart right from the start
歌曲鑑賞
《Scared To Live》是The Weeknd寫給Bella Hadid的臨別信,他在歌曲中以負心漢的視角勸慰已經和自己毫無關聯的前度“不要失去對愛的信念”,殊不知自己也被這段刻骨銘心的感情傷得鼻青臉腫。聖潔的管風琴拉開了歌曲的序幕,《Scared To Live》雖是一首情歌,卻有著十分濃厚的宗教歌曲氛圍。Max Martin用Elton John經典曲目《Your Song》的部分旋律為Abel譜寫的原曲增添了愛情里飽經滄桑的歲月感。《Scared To Live》是今年最感人至深的PBR&B情歌,它的魅力是如此巨大,甚至讓參與歌曲製作的Oneohtrix Point Never在出道十餘年之後產生了開嗓唱歌的衝動。
