家人和我昨天過年去南園。影片片段都是在那裡拍的,可是這首歌是我在高中時以新竹風城購物中心為靈感寫的。那個百貨公司開了沒幾年就因為管理問題倒掉。

My family and I took a trip to The One yesterday for a little New Years trip. The clips were all taken there, but the song was inspired in my high school years by a big shopping mall called Wind City that shut down not too long after it opened due to management problems.

City of Wind

Composition, lyrics, arrangement, singing, and video by Michelle Ning Lo
Film Location: The One

民國九十六年 坐落在繁榮城市裡面 那殘留的碎片

想起不到五年的時間
這裡曾驕傲的地點
人潮川流不息 彷彿不夜城再度興起

那是不久前的回憶
回顧無法再矜持的自信
時間濃縮了一切 成一點點 美好如此短暫而滅

風中的城 乘著風傲視一切
如此綻放光芒 色彩耀眼
終於卻只是曇花一現
西風的天 那荒荒涼涼一片
你的心是無助的餘焰 熄滅

那些不久前的回憶
重返無意中遺失的點滴
歲月不斷被偷竊 成一點點 還要等到時麼時候才能明白已一無所有

風中的城 乘著風傲視一切
如此綻放光芒 色彩耀眼
終於卻只是曇花一現
西風的天 那荒荒涼涼一片
你的心是無助的餘焰 熄滅

風中的城 依著固執的信念 
努力站穩腳跟 即使疲倦
也不願讓軟弱被看見
感嘆眼前 剩荒荒涼涼一片
也不能讓心裡的餘焰 熄滅

世上的每個人都像是一座城
堅固的城垣 守著什麼?

 

The year 2007 witnesses the remaining debris left in the middle of the busy city

I remember just five years ago, this place was a proud site
With people coming and going nonstop, it was like another city that didn't sleep

That was not too long ago
You try to recollect the confidence that can no longer be held
Time compresses everything until it all disappears
Beauty vanishes with a blink of an eye

City of Wind, proudly gazing down onto the world as you soared with the breeze
You shined your light, showing off your dazzling colours
However, it all eventually popped like a glorious bubble
Winter comes, and what's left is a lifeless wasteland
Your heart is a helpless candle, fated to burn out

That was not too long ago
You try to retrieve what you had accidentally left behind
Time is continually stolen, until there is none left
When will you finally come to realize that what you have is nothing?

City of Wind, proudly gazing down onto the world as you soared with the breeze
You shined your light, showing off your dazzling colours
However, it all eventually popped like a glorious bubble
Winter comes, and what's left is a lifeless wasteland
Your heart is a helpless candle, fated to burn out

City of Wind, relying solely on stubborn faith as you struggle to keep your ground
Although exhausted, you would never show your weakness
Lamenting the lifeless wasteland lying before you
You would not let that candle in your heart burn out

Every person in this world is like a city
What are we protecting within these firm walls?
