O725

當珍愛的一切被踐踏，我們還能沉默多久？

有些憤怒來自失去，有些則來自仍想守住什麼。〈O725〉寫的是當相信的人、珍惜的事，甚至原本以為理所當然的世界被一步步踐踏後，選擇不再退讓的瞬間。

歌曲裡，O725 從旁觀者走向反抗者。它揭開被掩埋的事物，質問那些以恐懼維持秩序的人，也試圖用微小卻持續的行動喚醒更多人。即使發出的泡泡終究可能破裂，只要其中一個能飄得更遠、讓某個人醒來，反抗就仍有意義。

以濃厚英國搖滾語彙為根基，〈O725〉在另類搖滾的推進中，把憤怒轉化成捍衛的力量。當退讓已經無法保護所愛之物，剩下的選擇，就是站出來，把屬於自己的世界拿回來。

“Take it back, the world is ours.”

It’s over now
Everything you held as truth
Will live in another way
That’s why I’m standing here
Being watched by them
Spied on me with a buzz
It’s over now
All your pain will fade away

Let me tell you why your fears hide inside
Don’t run, don’t close your eyes
You’re feeling lost

This time, I’m waiting so long
I’m here, the witness to your Lord
How to define who is alive, and who has died?
Did you hear that? Let’s get off this floor
Don’t you know what all of this is for?
Too close, you can never see for
How to define who is alive, and who has died?
Did you hear that? Let’s get off this floor

So this is the first and the last time I’ll ever say these words
I know they’re out there. I can feel them now
They keep pretending they don’t hear anything
Keep chasing numbers, talking about gossip, fur coats, cigars and wine
Keep deceiving themself, weaponizing fear against their own
And keep saying, “Hey, everything I’ve done is for love.”
You bastards. You dragged us into the abyss
You’re afraid of us, afraid of change

On the morning of the first day,
I’ll raise the bubble gun
Every bubble that comes out is an act of resistance against you and your pack of cowards.
They might burst, but some of them might drift farther, far enough to wake somebody up

I’m not here to tell you how it ends
I’m here to tell you how it begins
A world without you, without rules or control.
A world where anything is possible.
Do you know what I mean?

Lay all that’s buried out in the sun
Let the rotten see how far you’ve come
Lay the secrets of the night upon the ground
They’re getting close
Take it back, the world is ours

This time, I’m waiting so long
I’m here, the witness to your Lord
Tell me who is alive, and who has died?
Did you hear that? Let’s get off this floor
Don’t you know what all of this is for?
Too close, so you can never see for
How to define who is alive, and who has died?
Did you hear that? Let’s get off this floor

The first am I, sent unto you
Glad tidings, bearing the Word
The first am I, sent unto you
Glad tidings, bearing the Word
The first am I, sent unto you
Glad tidings, bearing the Word
The first am I, sent unto you
Glad tidings, bearing the Word

This time, I’m waiting so long
I’m here, the witness to your Lord
How to define who is alive, and who has died?
Did you hear that? Let’s get off this floor
Don’t you know what all of this is for?
Too close, you can never see for
How to define who is alive, and who has died?
Did you hear that? Let’s get off this floor

This time, I’m waiting so long
I’m here, the witness to your Lord
Tell me who is alive, and who has died?
Did you hear that? Let’s get off this floor
Don’t you know what all of this is for?
Too close, so you can never see for
How to define who is alive, and who has died?
Did you hear that? Let’s get off this floor
