I'll fake it through the day
With some help from johnny walker red
Send the poison rain down the drain
To put bad thoughts in my head
Two tickets torn in half
And a lot of nothing to do
Do you miss me, miss misery
Like you say you do?
A man in the park
Read the lines in my hand
Told me i'm strong
Hardly ever wrong i said man you mean
You had plans for both of us
That involved a trip out of town
To a place i've seen in a magazine
That you left lying around
I don't have you with me but
I keep a good attitude
Do you miss me, miss misery
Like you say you do?
I know you'd rather see me gone
Than to see me the way that i am
But i am in the life anyway
Next door the tv's flashing
Blue frames on the wall
It's a comedy of errors, you see
It's about taking a fall
To vanish into oblivion
Is easy to do
And i try to be but you know me
I come back when you want me to
Do you miss me miss misery
Like you say you do?
——《Miss Misery》
“Do you miss me,miss misery ”Elliot Smith低沉而略带忧郁的嗓音低吟浅唱着。《Miss misery》,Elliot最出名的一首曲子——《心灵捕手》的插曲,他也因这首歌获得了奥斯卡提名。每次听这首歌,心里总会莫名的一阵伤感,那样忧伤的旋律随着他淡淡的嗓音传入耳中,久久都不消散······
可惜的是,再也听不到了,03年的十月二十一日,他结束了自己的生命,给他的乐迷留下了永远的遗憾。
吉他伴奏,低吟浅唱,只留下淡淡的哀伤······
simple is perfect
