vampire
歌詞:
[English]
I hate to give the satisfaction asking, "How you're doing now?"
How's the castle built off people you pretend to care about?
Just what you wanted
Look at you, cool guy, you got it
I see the parties and the diamonds
Sometimes when I close my eyes
Six months of torture you sold as some forbidden paradise
I loved you truly
You gotta laugh at the stupidity
'Cause I've made some real big mistakes
But you make the worst one look fine
I should've known it was strange
You only come out at night
I used to think I was smart
But you made me look so naive
The way you sold me for parts
As you sunk your teeth into me, oh
Bloodsucker, dream crusher
Bleeding me dry like a damn vampire
...
And every girl I ever talked to
Told me you were bad, bad news
You called them crazy
God, I hate the way I called them crazy too
You're so convincing
How do you lie without flinching?
(How do you lie? How do you lie? How do you lie?)
Ooh, what a mesmerizing, paralyzing, tragic little thrill
Can't figure out just how you do it, and God knows I never will
Went for me and not her
'Cause girls your age know better
I've made some real big mistakes
But you make the worst one look fine
I should've known it was strange
You only come out at night
I used to think I was smart
But you made me look so naive
The way you sold me for parts
As you sunk your teeth into me, oh
Bloodsucker, dream crusher
Bleeding me dry like a damn vampire
...
You said, "It was true love", but wouldn't that be hard?
You can't love anyone, 'cause that would mean you had a heart
I tried you help you out, now I know that I can't
'Cause how you think's the kind of thing I'll never understand
...
I've made some real big mistakes
But you make the worst one look fine
I should've known it was strange
You only come out at night
I used to think I was smart
But you made me look so naive
The way you sold me for parts
As you sunk your teeth into me, oh
Bloodsucker, dream crusher
Bleeding me dry like a damn vampire
...

文法:
-
I hate to give the satisfaction asking, "How you're doing now?"
➔ 目的の不定詞 (to give)
➔ 不定詞 "to give" は憎悪の *目的* を表しています。話し手は、相手に様子を尋ねる *ことで* 満足感を与えることを嫌っています。
-
How's the castle built off people you pretend to care about?
➔ 関係詞節の省略 (built off)
➔ "built off" は省略された関係詞節です。完全な節は "How's the castle *that was* built off people..." となります。関係代名詞 "that" と助動詞 "was" は省略されています。
-
Six months of torture you sold as some forbidden paradise
➔ 単純過去形 (sold) および暗示的な 'that' 節 (you sold (it) as..)
➔ 動詞 "sold" は単純過去形で、過去に完了した動作を表しています。また、"sold"の後に "six months of torture" を表す "it" という単語を追加することができます。そのため、この文には、話し手が騙されたと言っているように、隠された 'that' 接続詞が含まれています。
-
You gotta laugh at the stupidity
➔ "Gotta" (got to) - 義務/必要性を表す非公式な短縮形。
➔ "Gotta" は "got to" の口語的な短縮形で、"have to" または "must" を意味します。それは、愚かさに対応して笑う必要性を示唆しています。
-
I should've known it was strange
➔ 後悔の助動詞 (should have + 過去分詞)
➔ "should've known" は後悔または見逃した機会を表します。これは、話し手が過去に何かが奇妙だったことに今気づいているが、当時はそれに気づいていなかったことを意味します。
-
And every girl I ever talked to told me you were bad, bad news
➔ 関係節 (I ever talked to)、間接話法における過去進行形 (you were bad, bad news)
➔ "I ever talked to" は "every girl" を修飾する関係節です。これは、彼女がどの女の子について言及しているかを指定します。 "you were bad, bad news" というフレーズは間接話法です。女の子たちによって行われた元の声明はおそらく "you are bad, bad news" でした。
-
You said, "It was true love", but wouldn't that be hard?
➔ 単純過去形 (said, was)、条件文 1 型 (wouldn't that be hard?)
➔ "You said" と "It was" はどちらも単純過去形で、過去に完了した動作を表しています。 "Wouldn't that be hard?" は 1 型の条件付きの質問です。暗示的な完全な条件文は "*If it were true love,* wouldn't that be hard?" のようになります。
