We run like a river

（By Arctic Monkeys）


　　於是我也想到了練團的事，我最常想到的，是那些白天時
的練團。就是沈ㄟ，KT，好盧，和我的那一攤。在家裡客廳練
團感覺很特別。對於第一次組團，第一次copy歌的新手，選的
就是這首速度較快的 A Certain Romance。每次二到三小時的
練習，我總是在練完第一個小時後手就不太行了。（那時候大
概才剛重拾鼓棒一陣子。）
　　休息時，又是那句老話：「欸，去抽個菸吧！」我們在前
陽台看著我曬的衣服，巷子另一側的窗戶，還有飛出去的菸灰
。從陽台的紗門看進客廳，滿地的導線、音箱、吉他以及貝斯
，有種很難說出來的愉悅感，雖然那套電子鼓很沒氣勢。

　　好像是這樣愉悅的感染，所以我家客廳兩邊給我感受到的
氣氛是很不一樣的：前陽台總是在陽光之下，是和朋友們聊著
一些抱負的，既悠閒又滿足；後陽台一直都很陰暗，廚房讓我
覺得油油髒髒的（雖然我常打掃），再加上我們被後陽台對面
的鄰居罵過：「音樂小聲一點！」我總是對客廳的那一側沒有
什麼好的回憶。

　　即使我們很鳥，但是真的很得意。

　　只要打開 Guitar Pro 寫譜，那時候的心情就會湧上來。

Well oh they might wear classic Reeboks
Or knackered Converse
Or tracky bottoms tucked in socks
But all of that's what the point is not
The point's that there isn’t no romance around there

And there's the truth that they can't see
They'd probably like to throw a punch at me
And if you could only see them, then you would agree
Agree that there isn’t no romance around there

it's a funny thing you know
We'll tell them if you like
We'll tell them all tonight
They'll never listen
Cause their minds are made up
And course it's all okay to carry on that way

Over there there's broken bones
There's only music, so that there's new ringtones
And it doesn’t take no Sherlock Holmes
To see it's a little different around here

Don't get me wrong though there's boys in bands
And kids who like to scrap with pool cues in their hands
And just cause he's had a couple of cans
He thinks it's alright to act like a dickhead

Well over there there's friends of mine
What can I say, I've known them for a long long time
And they might overstep the line
But you just cannot get angry in the same way
