Monster #02｜MISALIGNMENT

CORAL 首張全英文創作專輯《Hey, Monster!》
第二首先行單曲〈I’m Not Ready, Yes You Are〉feat. 佳瑜JiaYu
2026.09.11 數位上線

〈I’m Not Ready, Yes You Are〉描寫兩個相愛，卻站在不同位置的人。一個已經準備好讓愛被看見，另一個仍困在外界眼光與自我懷疑之間。這段不同步的愛，化為專輯中的第二隻 Monster——MISALIGNMENT。

作為專輯唯一一首邀請歌手合作的作品，CORAL 以親身經歷為創作起點，寫下關係中兩個人的不同感受，並邀請民謠樂團 22.5 主唱佳瑜共同演唱。佳瑜帶有空氣感的聲線，細膩呈現另一方的遲疑與害怕。首次挑戰全英文演唱，也讓她在錄音過程中直呼咬字與語感比想像中更有難度。

音樂以 Bedroom Pop 為基底，以貼耳的人聲與如氣泡般浮動的 Lo-fi Synth 營造親密的聆聽體驗，彷彿置身兩人的私密對話之中。歌曲後段，一來一往的對唱轉為合唱。兩人最後唱起相同的歌詞，原本錯開的心意也逐漸重疊。

I see the way you look at me
But you always turn away, you turn away
I look away ’cause I’m afraid
Of what it means if I stay, oh if I stay

Imagine wakin’ up in my arms every morning when the sun pours in, when I touch your skin
We could roam the world without askin’ permission from anyone
We hide from no one

I just want you to be you
If that’s me, then why do I break inside?
Oh it’s broken inside
Our love isn’t a crime
It sure does feel like one, the one I hide
It just don’t feel right

I’m not like you, I wasn’t born brave
I’ve spent my whole life tryna behave, oh haven’t I behaved?
Tryna fit into a world that says
“Love like this is just a phase,” oh it’s just a phase

All I want is to call you mine
All I want is a little more time
All I want is to not be left behind
All I want is a love that shines

All I want is to call you mine
All I want is a love that shines
All I want is to call you mine
All I want is a love that shines

All I want is to call you mine
All I want is a love that shines
All I want is to call you mine
All I want is to make it right
