英文影视原声歌曲：《墨水心》片尾曲My Declaration

魔幻大片《墨水心》改编自德国著名女作家科尼莉亚的畅销丛书，对影片的品质褒贬不一，但片尾曲My Declaration¹却让人感到耳目一新，原来就是女主角小姑娘的亲声演绎。

My Declaration

by Eliza Bennett

I'm gonna be someone,
I'm gonna give something,
I'm taking it on,
I'm taking it on,
It's gonna be my life,
so I'm gonna live each day and each night,
Taking it on, I'm taking it on

'cause I can't keep hiding,
no I can't keep hiding,
and I can't keep running away
So I'm gonna be stronger,
I'm gonna be better made,
I'm gonna give everything,
Just to bring me back again.

I'm gonna be a braver soul than this,
I'm gonna jump at all those many chances that i've missed,
I'm gonna live my life beyond all these fears
and forms of cowardice² that keep leading me on.
I'm gonna shine out like a beacon³ in the night,
I'm gonna wrap my fingers around the stars tonight,
'cause i'm taking it on, 'cause i'm taking it on...

No I can't keep hiding,
no I can't keep hiding,
no I can't keep running away
So I'm gonna be stronger,
and I'm gonna be better made,
and I'm gonna give everything,
Just to bring me back again.
So I'm gonna be stronger,
I'm gonna be understood,
and I'm gonna give everything
Just to bring me back again!

'cause I can't keep hiding,
no I can't keep hiding,
and I can't keep running away.
