一半忧伤一半甘甜《剩女也疯狂》 The Submarines - You, Me, & The Bourgeoisie

Here I am with all the pleasures of the first world
Laid out before me who am I to breakdown¹?

Every day I wake up,
I choose Love
I choose Light
And I try, it's too easy just to fall apart

Oh my baby don't be so distressed²
Were gonna pull your test
It's time to be so brutally³ honest about
The way we know we're on to something fine
When we climb for higher ceilings
And bourgeois⁴ happy feelings

And here we are in the center of the first world
It's laid out before us, who are we to break down?

Every day we wake up
We choose Love
We choose light
And we try, it's too easy just to fall apart

Plastic Bottles
Imported Water
Cars we drive wherever we want to
Clothes we buy at sweatshop labor⁵
Drugs from corporate⁶ neighbors
We're not living the Good life
Unless we're fighting the Good fight
You and Me just trying to get it right

And the center of the first world
Is laid out before us, who are we to break down?

Every day we wake up
We choose Love
We choose light
And we try, it's too easy just to fall apart

Love can free us from all excess
From our deepest debt
Cause when our hearts are full we need much less

Yea i know we're on to something fine
When we climb for higher ceilings
And bourgeois happy feelings

But Here we are in the center of the first world
It's laid out before us, who are we to break down?

Here we are in the center of the first world
It's laid out before us, who are we to break down?

Every day we wake up
We choose Love
We choose light
And we try, it's too easy just to fall apart

Every day we wake up
We choose Love
We choose light
And we try, it's too easy just to fall apart
