"It's Not"歌詞解説お願いします。

AIMEE MANN の It's Not という曲の歌詞についてです。 何が It's Not なのかが分かりません。文法的な解説でなく文意の解説をお願いします。 I keep going round and round on the same old circuit A wire travels underground to a vacant lot Where something I can't see interrupts the current And shrinks the picture down to a tiny dot And from behind the screen it can look so perfect But it's not So here I'm sitting in my car at the same old stop light I keep waiting for a change but I don't know what So red turns into green turning into yellow But I'm just frozen here on the same old spot And all I have to do is to press the pedal But I'm not People are tricky you can't afford to show Anything risky anything they don't know The moment you try - well kiss it goodbye So baby kiss me like a drug, like a respirator. And let me fall into the dream of the astronaut. Where I get lost in space that goes on forever. And you make all the rest just an after thought. And I believe it's you who could make it better. But it's not. No it's not

>何が It's Not なのか・・・文法的な解説でなく文意の解説を・・・ I keep going round and round on the same old circuit A wire travels underground to a vacant lot 「毎日同じことのくり返し」 Where something I can't see interrupts the current And shrinks the picture down to a tiny dot 「今日もひとりで眠る」 And from behind the screen it can look so perfect 「夢でも見よう」 But it's not 文法的には「it's not perfect: 夢もだめ」 心情的には「it's not me: このままじゃだめ」 So here I'm sitting in my car at the same old stop light 「だから外に出てみたの」 I keep waiting for a change but I don't know what So red turns into green turning into yellow 「外も同じことのくり返し」 But I'm just frozen here on the same old spot And all I have to do is to press the pedal 「流れに乗ってる私」 But I'm not 文法的には「I'm not frozen.まだ降参はしてない!」 心情的には「I'm not me.これは私と違う」 People are tricky you can't afford to show Anything risky anything they don't know 「みんな幸せそうにしてるけど」 The moment you try - well kiss it goodbye So baby kiss me like a drug, like a respirator. 「はみ出すのが怖いだけ」 And let me fall into the dream of the astronaut. Where I get lost in space that goes on forever. 「いっそ宇宙をさまよってみようか」 And you make all the rest just an after thought. 「すると私は過去の人」 And I believe it's you who could make it better. 「あなたならちょっとひいき目に思い出してくれるのかな」 But it's not. No it's not 文法的には「it's not that good.本当の私はそれほどじゃない」 心情的には「it's not me.そんなの私じゃない」 重苦しい廃退的なイメージを受けますが,それを賢明に否定し続ける姿が,「ああ,みんな孤独を抱えて単調な日常と闘っているんだ.やっぱり頑張ろう.」というほんのり勇気づけられる感じです. ということで,私の答は "me" とします. 作詞者としては,この部分は受け取る人が一番大事にしている物をイメージさせようとしているのだと思います.だからもっと具体的に"what I want"などにもなり得ます. p.s. 幸せそうに振る舞う嘘は「虚勢」ではなくみんなと生きる「努力」だと思う.

自分がいかに読んでいるようで読んでいないか、痛感しました。 詩の意味を読み取れるようになるまでの道程はまだまだ遠いようです。 ただ彼女の世界を垣間見ることができとてもよかったです。 誠実な解説ありがとうございました。

    先ほど訳して頂いた It depends, but I might quit the FanArt altogether. で返信させて頂きました。 No don't leave us you're too good Getting into concept original art is great and you definately should but maybe you could do Fanart on the side as practice and a release you know so you always have something to unleash your creativity on と返信がありこれは何といってるのでしょうか? あとこちらはhttp://okwave.jp/qa/q7623596.htmlでの文章でお返事しました。 No it's ok I'm sorry I'm not an art expert or anything I thought it was similar for like 2 seconds but you make very different stuff than her and like I said you're a sweetie I just thought it's interesting that your styles are similar and you never heard of her before, guess it's just one of those universal coincidences と返信が来ましたとても長すぎて・・・理解に困っています。 よろしくお願い致します。

  • It’s more that

    I’ve been a really bad friend. Last year, I was in a bad living situation. My best friend owns several properties and helped me out; he asked a long-term tenant to leave, refurbished the whole apartment, and then offered it to me at a steep discount so I could afford it. It’s literally the most beautiful, spacious place I have ever lived in. This coincided with a very intense romantic relationship I was caught up in—which, of course, broke up spectacularly when he stole my stuff and left the country. I realize now that I was really thoughtless. My friend did a lot of the renovations himself and spent thousands of dollars on necessary (but much-appreciated) upgrades. At the time, I was so focused on my relationship that I didn’t even think about pitching in. And now, looking back, I didn’t show up once to clean or paint, or even just bring dinner and say thank you. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve tried to be a good tenant and show my gratitude. He’s never said anything about it, and I don’t think he holds it against me. It’s more that I realized I really dropped the ball. It’s more thatはどのような意味でしょうか?よろしくお願いします

It’s a gimme for a bird, but you guys wouldn’t give your old lady the right time if you had wristwatches up to the elbow.

  • 「これを食べてくださいませんか?」について

    アメリカの人に下のように言われて説明に困っています。 説明の仕方を教えてくださいませんか? But... I think the 'kudasaimasen' is kind of negative. Because it's like saying, will you not eat this? So it's a polite way to say 'will you eat this?' It's kind of wierd And it doesn't translate into English very well. 私が思うに、「くださいませんか?」は否定ではなくて、 依頼だと思うのですが。 だから意味が肯定になると思います。 どこからどこまでを区切って、どう説明したらいいでしょうか? もちろん日本語でお願いします。
