Each night I taste the Purest of Pain

Purest of Pain
Son by Four
(李纹 - "Baby 对不起" 英语版)



+Today, I woke up, and my mum drove me to the shuttle bus service waiting point, as usual. I reached the shuttle bus waiting point at 6.15am, as usual. After a while, the bus came at 6.20am, which was freaking early, as usual.

+I slept in the bus and before I knew it, it was 7am and I reached SGCamp, as usual. I got off and made my way to my office, where I was first to reach, as usual.

+At 7.15am, I went for role call and breakfast at the mess, as usual.

+After the usual routine work and scoldings by my superiors, lunch time finallly came at 11.30am, at the mess again. Today, I'm eating 鸡扒面again, as usual, with a bottle of green tea.

+Finally, 5.30pm came, and after the usual role call, I rushed for the first shuttle bus out of camp. As usual, I made it and I listened to my PSP on the trip to CCK, the drop-off point.

+At 6.10pm, I reached Lot 1 as usual, and I went to Popular CDRama and Comics Connection to walk around. I saw Jolin's brand new album "花蝴蝶" and I bought it on impulse!

+I went home on the MRT and reached home at 7.15pm, as usual. After playing the piano and the guitar, and surfing the net and Facebooking, as usual, I went to sleep at 11pm, as usual.

+The next moment, someone was nudging me and I blinked.




+Looking around me, everything seemed foreign for a few seconds. I actually wondered where the hell I was.

+I had actually dreamt my whole usual routine in Singapore. For one, I don't really dream often. But this dream was so real, I could feel myself waking up disappointed. What was so usual and ordinary then had become something so far and foreign, something that I would not be able to experience for another 6 months. Walking around Lot 1 might seem stupid to others but now I really miss those days where I could just walk freely without worrying about getting lost or missing the ferry bus...

+Cherish whatever you have now, for you might not know when it will all be taken away from you. For me, I had only given my friends and family 1 month's notice before I left. Who knows how long you'll have?



Purest of Pain
Son by Four

I'm sorry I didn't mean to call but I couldn't fight it
I guess I was weak and couldn't even hide it
And so I surrender just to hear your voice
I know how many times I said I'm gonna to live without you
And maybe someone else is standing there beside you
But there's something baby that you need to know

That deep inside me
I feel like I'm dying
I have to see you
It's all that I'm asking

Vida, Give me back my fantasies
The courage that I need to live
The air that I breathe
Carino mio, My world becomes so empty
My days are so cold and lonely
And each night I taste
The Purest of Pain

I wish I could tell you I'm feeling better everyday
That it didn't hurt me when you walked away
But to tell you the truth I can't find my way

And deep inside me
I feel like I'm dying
I have to see you
It's all that I'm asking

Vida, Give me back my fantasies
The courage that I need to live
The air that I breathe
Carino mio, My world becomes so empty
My days are so cold and lonely
And each night I taste
The Purest of Pain
