Linkin Park - What I've Done

In this farewell

There’s no blood
There’s no alibi
‘Cause I’ve drawn regret
From the truth
Of a thousand lies

[Pre-Chorus:]
So let mercy come
And wash away
What I’ve done

[Chorus:]
I'll face myself
To cross out what I’ve become
Erase myself
And let go of what I’ve done

Put to rest
What you thought of me
While I clean this slate
With the hands of uncertainty

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

For what I’ve done
I start again
And whatever pain may come
Today this ends
I’m forgiving what I’ve done!

[Chorus]

What I’ve done
Forgiving what I’ve done

I watched Transformers 4 in cinema. But before, I haven't watched the previous movies, so I watched from the first (as preparation before watching the newest, haha) aaand (as late as usual) I love this song very much. And as usual, I played it over and over and over and over again until I get bored.

I watched V for Vendetta yesterday. I don't really understand the storyline but I dare to say I enjoyed watching this one. Anyone who read Kindaichi manga must have had a deja vu in the last scene where V was lying down with hisk mask on. With red rose on his chest, he lied down peacefully surrounded by many flowers in a train. When I saw the scene I was like, "I've ever seen this before.. Yes in Kindaichi manga ^^)

I'm now reading Phantom of the Opera novel as well. Wish it to be my first novel written in English I finish reading, haha, excuse my limited English skill. I write down this unimportant blog to learn writing in English to be honest. My DeviantArt page as well... I learn communicating with people overseas using English in comment section. Many thanks to Google Translate, it has helped me a lot.

Say, V (with his Guy Fawkes' mask), Phantom of the Opera, Baron Night (a character in Meitantei Conan manga)... all those are guy with white over-smiley-faced mask and ridiculously I am attracted by those frightful characters, haha... No lha I still like Optimus Prime more. But really, those guys with masks, they have such an undescribable charisma...

#nowplaying The Lion King - Be Prepared

I never thought hyenas essential

They're crude and unspeakably plain

But maybe they've a glimmer of potential

If allied to my vision and brain

I know that your powers of retention

Are as wet as a warthogs backside

But thick as you are, pay attention

My words are a matter of pride

It's clear from your vacant expressions

The lights are not all on upstairs

But we're talking kings and successions

Even you can't be caught unawares

So prepare for a chance of a lifetime

Be prepared for sensational news

A shining new era is tiptoeing nearer

And where do we feature?

Just listen to teacher

I know it sounds sordid but you'll be rewarded

When at last I am given my dues!

And in justice deliciously squared

Be prepared!

Yeah! Be prepared, we'll be prepared! For what?

For the death of the king

Is he sick?

No, fool! We're going to kill him and Simba, too

Great idea! Who needs a king?

No king, no king! La la la la la la

Idiots! There will be a king!

But you said-

I will be king!

Stick with me and you'll never go hungry again!

Yay, all right! Long live the king!

Long live the king!

It's great that we'll soon be connected

With a king who'll be all-time adored

Of course, quid pro quo, you're expected

To take certain duties on board

The future is littered with prizes

And though I'm the main addressee

The point that I must emphasize is

You won't get a sniff without me!

So prepare for the coup of the century

Be prepared for the murkiest scam

Meticulous planning [we have food]

tenacity spanning [lots of food]

Decades of denial [we repeat]

is simply why I'll [endless meat]

Be king undisputed respected, saluted

And seen for the wonder I am

Yes, my teeth and ambitions are bared-

Be prepared!

Yes, our teeth and ambitions are bared-

Be prepared!

OST of The Lion King (1994)

This is my favorite song from the movie. The melody and lyrics are so catchy, unfortunately this is the song of the antagonist, haha. Love the movie as well. Simba is so cool I wish I could marry him.

Look how handsome he is ^///^

Talking about The Lion King will be incomplete if I don't mention my favorite quote in this movie.

Adult Simba: I know what I have to do. But going back means I'll have to face my past. I've been running from it for so long.
[Rafiki hits Simba on the head with his stick]
Adult Simba: Ow! Jeez, what was that for?
Rafiki: It doesn't matter. It's in the past. 
Adult Simba: Yeah, but it still hurts.

"Oh yes, the past can hurt. But from the way I see it, you can either run from it, or learn from it." - Rafiki (The Lion King, 1994)

(I pick this conversation from: here)

I tremble when I write down the quote above. Movie for kids can teach adults as well.
