Before the curtain falls.

The theme songs of our generation.
The soundtrack of our life.
The dialogue.
The pauses.
Synchronised.
Separate.
Lights in.
Lights out.

Fools, in a foolish game.
Digging for gold, for that one moment that changes everything.
And yet, every failed moment is but another chapter in our musical...
a chapter for us to savour,
the musicality of our thoughts,
the lyrical hypocrisy of our desires,
the hesitant pauses of our heartbeats,
the synchronized flutter of eyelids in the waking of realizations,
the steps that are out of pace,
the world that blanks out from your eyes when the truth hits,
the light that returns when truth persists.

The amplified,
the muted.

The silent motivations that get you through each beat,
those the others can't see,
that you need to take you through from scene 1 to scene 2.
The invisible strings that keep your limbs in movement.
At one point, when the music reaches a climax, and you run forwards..
towards the edge of the stage, ready to plunge.
Ready to give up the bright lights and the attention,
you stop.

You reel backwards.
And you continue.
Act by act.
Scene by scene.
Line by line.

And at last, before the curtain falls.
The applause, like music to your ears.

Before it all goes dark,
and then its just you,
your room.
And your silent breathing.


愚人的国度 －孙燕姿


词：孙燕姿;李焯雄
曲：李偲菘

爱是愚人的国度
看我们演的好辛苦
是你所谓的领悟
我不懂 我不哭

看悲欢喜怒每一步
是疲惫还是依赖的束缚
来 你能不能再重复
让我懂 让我哭

再让时间停住
把自己看清楚
不必再说假如
我 穿过一地荒芜
幸福不能碰触

爱是愚人的国度
不能自拔 不懂退出
我们都回不去最初
曾美丽 但还是不满足
爱是自愚愚人演出
答案清楚 才能谢幕
剧情 是笑 是哭

我们都回不去最初
怎么爱 还是不满足
爱是自愚愚人演出
答案清楚 才能谢幕
结局 是笑 是哭
