up against the wall

• peter bjorn and john'un writer s block'undan sanki gizli kalmi$ harika bir $arki. cok garip bir havasi var. benim icin, 2006'yi 2007'ye baglayan aralik ayinin sonlari ve ocak ayinin baslarinda amsterdam'da gecirdigim 9 gunun ruhu gibi bir $ey. bu $arki daha ba$lar ba$lamaz canlaniyor tekrar o 9 ne$eli ve huzunlu harika gun. bir yandan insanin geri donmek istemedigi, bir yandan da geri getirmek icin elinden gelen her $eyi yapabilecegi anilar gibi. bu $arki da oyle i$te.

  guess i should have caught your call
  but i just had to waste the phone forget it all
  bones are trembling hands are cold
  you don’t know how it feels you’ve got me up against the wall
  
  maybe we could make this work
  but now you start to leave before it’s getting worse
  i don’t know what you came here for
  it’s almost that i wish we hadn’t met at all
  
  you slap just like a wake-up call
  the bruises on the face don’t bother me at all
  bones are trembling hands are cold
  it’s almost that i wish you had me up against the wall

• the be good tanyas'ın blue horse albümünün muhtemelen en iyi parçası. bunun sebeplerinden biri de süre olarak isabetli bir seçim yapılarak şarkının fazla uzatılmamış olması. sözleri de şu şekildedir büyük ihtimalle:
  
  up against the wall
  you don't stand so tall
  better run, run, run put your armor on again
  
  she is 12 years old
  nothing she don't know
  she says you're 32 but you wanna be 16
  i know that you did not receive
  what it was that you needed when you were growing?
  but tell me what's the worth?
  you're repeating history verse by verse
  what do you prove?
  no matter what you say i think you'll lose, you'll lose, you'll lose her
  
  up against the wall
  you don't stand so tall
  better run, run, run put your armor on again
  
  isn't it time we recognized that we all live
  such broken lives sometimes
  and it's sad but true that you still
  carry so much with you
• girişteki melodisinden itibaren huzur veren ve muhtemelen kendisini bir yolculuk esnasında keşfettiğim için, dinlerken kendimi ağaçlıklı bir yolda rüzgara karşı bir motor üzerinde giderken hayal ettiğim şarkı.
• ing zor durumda olmak. büyük sıkıntılar yaşamak. çaresizlik...
  
  bazı bazı öfke, hareketsiz kalmak, ne yapacağını bilememek. yine de keh keh gülmek.
