SNS like Twitter and Instagram made many of us almost obsessed with being recognized by others these days. We're busy proving the world we're special. Some of achieve it by using a name which nobody but themselves can read. That's not the only way to stand out, though.
Rely On Me (James Smith)
[Verse 1]
I'm picking up at 2 AM
You could have called any one of a thousand friends
But you can only be real with me
I'm 20 minutes late for work
I'm still crossing town so I can see you first
A habit, I need...
[Pre-Chorus]
Somebody to hold, somebody to talk to
Keep playing the roles that we're not supposed to
[Chorus]
You still rely on me
And I still rely on you
For things that we shouldn't
You still rely on me
When I'm doing everything
That I said I wouldn't
[Verse 2]
Oh, so what the hell are we doing?
If we carry on, we're gonna end up with bruises
'Cause you think that I'm gonna catch your fall
But, I'm not there anymore
Oh, you lay your cards on the table
You wanna be alone and you're done with the labels
Enable to let me go
You're just like me, oh, baby I know
I'm picking up at 2 AM
You could have called any one of a thousand friends
But you can only be real with me
I'm 20 minutes late for work
I'm still crossing town so I can see you first
A habit, I need...
[Pre-Chorus]
Somebody to hold, somebody to talk to
Keep playing the roles that we're not supposed to
[Chorus]
You still rely on me
And I still rely on you
For things that we shouldn't
You still rely on me
When I'm doing everything
That I said I wouldn't
[Verse 2]
Oh, so what the hell are we doing?
If we carry on, we're gonna end up with bruises
'Cause you think that I'm gonna catch your fall
But, I'm not there anymore
Oh, you lay your cards on the table
You wanna be alone and you're done with the labels
Enable to let me go
You're just like me, oh, baby I know
[Pre-Chorus]
You need somebody to hold, somebody to talk to
Keep playing the roles that we're not supposed to
[Chorus]
You still rely on me
And I still rely on you
For things that we shouldn't
You still rely on me
When I'm doing everything
That I said I wouldn't
[Outro]
You still rely on me and I still rely on you
Still rely on you, I still rely on you
You still rely on me, I still rely on you
[Verse 1]
真夜中2時に電話に出てる
お前なら電話をかける友達なんて他にいくらもいるはずだけど
頼りになるのは俺だけだから
20分仕事に遅刻してるのに
それでも街を横断してる,最初にお前に会いたくて
クセみたいなものなんだ,どうしても
[Pre-Chorus]
抱きしめて,話ができるそんな相手が欲しいから
まるで役を演じるように,やる必要ないことをずっと続けているんだよ
[Chorus]
今だってお前に甘えられてるし
俺もお前に甘えてる
そんなことやっちゃダメってわかってるのに
今もお前が頼ってくると
どんなことでもやることになる
絶対にやりたくないって言っていたのに
[Verse 2]
お互い何をやってんだ?
このままでずっと続けていたら,痣だらけになるように,お互い傷つくだけなのに
倒れた時は受け止めて,困った時は助けてくれる,そうお前は思ってるけど
もうそれは無理なんだ
テーブルにお前は手持ちの札を並べた
ひとりにしてって思っているし,決めつけられてウンザリしてる
俺を自由にしてくれよ
俺とお前はそっくりだ,ベイビイ俺はわかってるんだ
[Pre-Chorus]
ベイビイお前も抱きしめて話ができるそんな相手が欲しいから
まるで役を演じるように,やる必要ないことをずっと続けているんだよ
[Chorus]
今だってお前に甘えられてるし
俺もお前に甘えてる
そんなことやっちゃダメってわかってるのに
今もお前が頼ってくると
どんなことでもやることになる
絶対にやりたくないって言っていたのに
[Outro]
今だってお前に甘えられてるし,俺もお前に甘えてる
お前がいなきゃダメなんだ
今だってお前に甘えられてるし,俺もお前に甘えてる
(余談)
なにしろJames Smithです。日本で言うなら「佐藤健太」レベルの名前ですが,今回はむしろそのわざとらしいまでの平凡さに惹かれてこの曲を取り上げることになりました。
