You Are Not Really Happy
【Here it comes, finally waited for Yanran's new song!】
【I already knew this song back in "Ordinary Life", hope it doesn't disappoint me!】
【This is still Nan Ye's first song sung by someone else, wonder how the effect will be!】
【Just listen and you'll know!】
For such a large concert, of course, they wouldn't use speakers for accompaniment or anything like that, but have a dedicated band playing.
The effect is countless times better.
The screen displayed the song information and lyrics.
Singer: Situ Yanran
Lyricist: Nan Ye
Composer: Nan Ye
(Actual Lyricist and Composer Ashin, Arranger Lupo Groinig.)
When the song started, it took a different path.
As the accompaniment of just a few seconds sounded, it was followed by Situ Yanran's humming.
"Ah ah ah ah ah~"
"Ah ah ah ah ah~"
Two consecutive sections of humming, and the way each "ah" was sung and the emotion expressed were different.
Coupled with Situ Yanran's unique voice and the Little Heavenly Queen's superb singing skills, that ethereal feeling was expressed to the fullest.
This section of humming, from the very beginning, firmly grasped the listeners' ears.
Such an opening, although not very novel, was very successful.
【Don't know why, just from the beginning, I fell in love with this song.】
【Don't look at this short section of humming at the beginning, it's actually very difficult, even one "ah" requires changing several keys, and the breath needs to be long and continuous, people who haven't practiced definitely can't sing it this way.】
【It wasn't simple from the start, Nan Ye is indeed still that Nan Ye, hope the later part doesn't disappoint me!】
"Crying in the crowd"
"You just want to become a transparent color"
"You will never dream~ or hurt~ or have feelings again"
"You have already decided"
"..."
Everyone envies others, and thinks other people's lives are good, but actually, others also envy you.
But in life, whose home isn't a mess, whose pot bottom isn't black!
When you start to feel disappointed with life, when you start to forget what happiness tastes like, when there is nothing but complaints...
You just hope to disappear into the crowd, hide yourself, and not be hurt.
After rejecting everything, you indeed won't have nightmares anymore, won't be afraid of pain, and won't have feelings for others.
But, have you really decided?
"You quietly endure"
"Tightly holding yesterday in your fist"
"And the sweeter the memories"
"..."
"Dense, deep, and shallow knife cuts"
When you find that you cannot avoid the crowd, cannot truly reject everything, what can you do?
That's right, you can only accept this world!
But how much helplessness is there in life:
From parents' lack of understanding;
From the Teacher's ridicule;
From classmates' disregard;
From the Boss's harshness;
From the hardships of daily necessities and supporting a family;
As well as confusion and being caught off guard about the future...
In the end, you can still only grit your teeth, clench your fists, and forcefully endure the past.
Whether life is bitter or sweet, whether the scars are deep or shallow, no one can help you live through it.
Because this is your life!
"""you are not truly happy"""
"Your smile is just the protective color you wear"
"..."
"Put your soul"
"Locked in a forever locked shell"
When singing up to here, it reached the first """you are not truly happy""".
But the lyrics are still heartbreaking.
The reason for being unhappy is because you can only use your smile as a weapon to protect yourself.
Sometimes your heart is already extremely sorrowful, but when facing leaders, colleagues, life, family's lack of understanding...
You can only wear a smile on your face.
You will find that there is surprisingly no better way than this.
"This world smiled"
"So you, fitting in, smiled together"
What a sarcastic line.
Everyone is trying hard to cater to those who make the rules.
Everyone does this, so I have no choice but to do this, otherwise I'll seem too out of place, and being out of place will lead to exclusion, gradually losing my position.
But when you truly integrate into this group, you find yourself like a plaster, your superficial happiness is always hiding your unhappiness, and you agree with their words every time.
Even if your chest is filled with hesitation, the words you say are still calm and composed.
But by the end, can you really find that original self?
"When survival is the rule"
"Not your choice"
"So you with tears in your eyes"
"Drifting, stumbling, walking"
For birds to live, they need to constantly forage for food.
This is because birds have a very developed digestive system, a very short rectum, and excrete quickly.
So they must constantly eat food to replenish energy.
And for people to live, they can only burrow into the dirty eyes of money.
Is this really the life people yearn for?
No, it's absolutely impossible!
How many people are beaten bloody for that bit of money, how many people, just to earn a little money, abandon their conscience, and even carry human lives on their backs.
Perhaps, the vast majority of people are not happy!
But if you don't make money, let alone tomorrow, let alone the future, you won't even have enough to eat for the next meal.
So, we can only move forward like this, being pushed forward by this profit-driven society.
Sometimes I really want to just give up for once!
"""you are not truly happy"""
"Your wounds are never willing to fully heal"
"I stand on your left side"
"But it's like being separated by the Milky Way"
"..."
The farthest distance in the world is not the distance between life and death, but that I am standing in front of you, yet you don't know what I am thinking inside.
Our distance is like being separated by an entire Milky Way!
Reaching here, it is the second """you are not truly happy"""!
It is also when the unhappy emotions have accumulated to the extreme.
The accompaniment also became intense!
"Oh~ Oh~ Oh~"
Through a short humming passage, all the complex, unhappy emotions in the heart were fully vented.
It was very immersive.
And the climax of the entire song is about to arrive:
"You deserve true happiness"
"You should take off the protective color you wear"
"Why after losing"
"Do you still have to be punished"
"Can you just let"
"All the sadness end at this moment"
Since smiling to fit in makes you feel wronged, why don't you take off this layer of protective color and be your most authentic self.
Don't be too afraid of losing, because what you can lose, it never belonged to you in the first place.
And don't be too afraid of being hurt, because what can hurt you are all your destined trials.
From childhood to adulthood, the most we heard was:
You must be sensible.
You must stand out.
You must be promising.
But we never heard "You must be happy"!
And this song is telling you that you deserve happiness.
The next few lines are the ones Situ Yanran needs to go all out on:
"Start living again~"
The accumulation of emotions but an extreme explosion.
This "zhe" completely unleashed the power within Situ Yanran's heart.
The voice soared higher and higher, from beginning to end, it stayed for a full 5 seconds!
