late-night post

i suddenly listened to a song that i haven't heard in at least seven years. it's 棋子 by 王菲. it's the song you're hearing now if you can hear the background song. it was a song from a channel 8 serial that had a very mysterious story about a painting and a mute and a glass of poisoned milk. that's as far as i can remember! i really like the interludes in the song.

想走出你控制的領域
卻走進你安排的戰局
我沒有堅強的防備
也沒有後路可以退

想逃離你佈下的陷阱
卻陷入了另一個困境
我沒有決定輸贏的勇氣
也沒有逃脫的幸運

我像是一顆棋
進退任由你決定
我不是你眼中唯一將領
卻是不起眼的小兵

我像是一顆棋子
來去全不由自己
舉手無回你從不曾猶豫
我卻受控在你手裡

and we are still waiting for my sister to get home so that we can be done with her birthday.
