Thao & The Get Down Stay Down Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Để nơi ấy, những năm tháng nhạt phai
Tình yêu ấy, khuất trong hư không theo mây ngàn
Đừng lưu luyến, héo khô cánh hồng nhan
Người rời yêu dấu nơi này
Quên đi những nụ hôn nồng say
Gió cuốn hoa bay
Giận mình là kẻ lụy tình
Bao đêm trắng suy tư về anh
Mắt ướt mi cay
Để thương nhớ một người không nhớ ta
Chàng là cơn gió, gió cuốn theo tình về chốn xa
Còn lại hơi ấm, tiếc nuối hai dòng lệ giữa đêm dài
Một phút yếu đuối, cố giấu đi nỗi niềm riêng trong lòng
Để thuyền rời bến chẳng vương một người từng thương
Một lòng em vẫn, vẫn ước một ngày ta tương phùng
Một lòng em mãi, mãi vấn vương dù người cách muôn trùng
Dù có sóng gió, vẫn cứ mong rằng người quay trở về
Để một lần nữa chúng ta sẽ được gần nhau.
These lyrics from Thao & The Get Down Stay Down's song "Beat in 4" depict a sense of longing, nostalgia, and unrequited love. The first verse talks about a white mist disappearing behind a hill, symbolizing the fading of past memories and love. The phrase "hu khong" referring to emptiness and the clouds emphasizes how the love now feels distant and intangible. The lyrics urge not to hold onto the past, as clinging to it will only wither and dry up beauty.
The second verse speaks of a loved one who has left, encouraging the singer to forget passionate kisses and move on. The line "Gió cuôn hoa bay" translates to "the wind carries the flowers away," suggesting that life goes on despite the stormy weather surrounding them. This verse also highlights the heartache and tears endured by the person left behind, hinting at their longing for someone who doesn't remember them.
In the third verse, the person who left is compared to a wind carrying love to a distant place. The remaining warmth and regret are felt through tears shed during the long nights. The singer's vulnerability is depicted as they try to hide their own pain within their heart, allowing the boat to leave without holding onto someone they once loved.
The final verse expresses the singer's unwavering hope for a reunion, despite the separation and distance between them. They still yearn for a day when they can meet again, persistently carrying feelings that transcend any physical barriers. Despite the challenges ahead, they continue to believe in the possibility of the person returning, allowing them to be close to each other once more. Overall, these lyrics convey a complex mix of emotions, including longing, sadness, and perseverance in the face of unrequited love.

Màn sương trắng, khuất đi, bỗng tan sau lưng đồi
The white mist disappears suddenly behind the hill
Để nơi ấy, những năm tháng nhạt phai
Leaving behind the faded years at that place
Tình yêu ấy, khuất trong hư không theo mây ngàn
That love is hidden in emptiness, not following the clouds
Đừng lưu luyến, héo khô cánh hồng nhan
Don't linger, let the beauty wither and dry
Người rời yêu dấu nơi này
Beloved person has left this place
Quên đi những nụ hôn nồng say
Forget about the passionate kisses
Gió cuốn hoa bay
The wind blows the flowers away
Mặc mưa gió đang kéo quanh nơi đây
Ignoring the rain and wind swirling around here
Giận mình là kẻ lụy tình
Being angry at oneself is the one who is being deceived by love
Bao đêm trắng suy tư về anh
Countless white nights pondering about you
Mắt ướt mi cay
Eyes wet with tears
Để thương nhớ một người không nhớ ta
To miss someone who doesn't remember us
Chàng là cơn gió, gió cuốn theo tình về chốn xa
You are like the wind, blowing love away to a distant place
Còn lại hơi ấm, tiếc nuối hai dòng lệ giữa đêm dài
Only the warmth remains, regretting the two streams of tears in the long night
Một phút yếu đuối, cố giấu đi nỗi niềm riêng trong lòng
A moment of weakness, trying to hide the personal sorrow in the heart
Để thuyền rời bến chẳng vương một người từng thương
Let the boat leave the dock without longing for a person once loved
Một lòng em vẫn, vẫn ước một ngày ta tương phùng
My heart still wishes for a day when we meet again
Một lòng em mãi, mãi vấn vương dù người cách muôn trùng
My heart always lingers, even though you are separated by countless distances
Dù có sóng gió, vẫn cứ mong rằng người quay trở về
Despite the storms, I still hope for your return
Để một lần nữa chúng ta sẽ được gần nhau
So that we can be close to each other once again

It was super gay. There was this sick little catamite following my girlfriend and I around, demanding we spit in his mouth and shit on his chest. He would even dig through our trash for used condoms to drink the contents. It was truly disgusting. We finally had to get a restraining order, and still had to have him arrested for violating it. But, you should know all about it; the restraining order is still active against you DunkinGrad.

Sounds gay. Pls tell me more about it.
