專輯介紹 專輯背景 OneRepublic是美國的一個流行搖滾樂隊,成立於科羅拉多州。自2006年夏天以來,他們活躍於網路,並成為MYSPACE最受歡迎的藝人之一。作曲/製作人Ryan Tedder 和他的高中朋友Zach Filkins 在科羅拉多州斯布林市創建了樂隊。然後樂隊搬遷到洛杉磯。在Columbia Records短暫的工作之後,他們和Interscope Records/Mosley Music Group 簽約了,並且完成了和樂隊同名的首張專輯。樂隊的核心Ryan Tedder同樣也是創作pop, rock,rnb的作曲/製作人。他們的歌曲"Apologize"的混音版本被收入Timbaland2007年發行的專輯TimbalandPresents: Shock Value中。這首歌曲的原始版本將會作為即將到來的專輯的單曲發行。8月末,在洛杉磯本地電台KIIS-FM的節目中,這首歌受到了大量的點播。2007年8月2日樂隊在FOX電視台的 "So You Think You Can Dance"節目中現場表演了 "Apologize"。
這雖然只是他們的第一張專輯,但他們卻早已備受關注,My Space的點擊率過了千萬。專輯風格在獨立、流行和搖滾之間,歌曲的旋律都不錯,讓人很容易就能接受,對於喜歡流行還是搖滾的歌迷來說都是不錯的選擇。值得一提的是專輯中大部分歌曲都是由Ryan Tedder來完成,也是一個不簡單的人物。

歌曲歌詞 Say
Do you know where your heart is
Do you think you can find it
Or did you trade it for something
Somewhere better just to have it
Do you know where your love is
Do you think that you lost it
You felt it so strong but
Nothing s turned out how you wanted
Well bless my soul
You re a lonely soul
Cause you won t let go
Of anything you hold
Well all I need
Is the air I breathe
And a place to rest
My head
Do you know what your fate is
And are you trying to shake it
You re doing your best and
Your best look
You re praying that you make it
Well bless my soul
You re a lonely soul
Cause you won t let go
Of anything you hold
Well all I need
Is the air I breathe
And a place to rest
My head
I said all I need
Is the air I breathe
And a place to rest
My head
Do you think you can find it
Do you think you can find it
Do you think you can find it
Better than you had it
Do you think you can find it
Do you think you can find it
Do you think you can find it
Yeah better than you had it
I said all I need
Is the air I breathe
And a place to rest
My head
I said all I need
Is the air I breathe
And a place to rest
My head
Whenever the end is
Do you think you can see it
Well until you get there
Go on go ahead and scream it
Just say it
Mercy
Angel of mercy
How did you find me
Where did you read my story
Pulled from the papers
Desperate and hardened
Seeking a moment every fix
All I wanted to say
All I wanted to do
Is fall apart now
All I wanted to feel
I wanted to love
Its all my fault now
A Tradegy I fear
Angel of mercy
How did you find me
How did you pick me up again
Angel mercy
How did you move me
Why am I on my feet again
And I see you
Whoa Whoa Whoa
I feel you
Whoa Whoa Whoa
Before just the daylight
Come and i stand by
Waiting to catch the quickest plane
Flying to nowhere
Is better than somewhere
That's where i've been and nothing's changed
All I wanted to say
All I wanted to do
Is fall apart now
All I wanted to feel
I wanted to love
Its all my fault now
A Tradegy for sure
Angel of mercy
How did you find me
How did you pick me up again
Into the mercy
How did you move me
Why am I on my feet again
And I see you
Whoa
I feel you
Whoa
Im so lost in you
A tragedy seemed to be over now
A tradegy it seemed to be
Angel of mercy
How did you find me
How did you pick me up again
Angel of mercy
How did you move me
Why am I on my feet again
And I see you
Whoa
I feel you
Whoa
I feel you
Oh Whoa
I feel you
Oh Oh Oh
Stop And Stare
This town is cooler now
I think it's sick of us
It's time to make our move
I'm shakin' off the rust
I've got my heart set on anywhere but here
I'm staring down myself counting up the years
Steady hands just take the wheel
Every glance is killing me
Time to make on elast appeal for the life I lead
Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be
Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you're here not there
And you'd give anything to get what's fair
But fair ain't what you really need
Oh can you see what I say
They're tryin' to come back all my senses push
Untie the weight tags I never thought I could
Steady feet don't fail me now
I'm gonna run till you can't walk
But something pulls my focus out and I'm standing down
Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
Yeah I know that everyone get scared
But I've become what I can't be
Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you're here not there
And you'd give anything to get what's fair
But fair ain't what you really need
Oh you don't need
Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
Yeah I know that everyone get scared
But I've become what I can't be
Oh do you see what I say
Apologize
I'm holding on your rope
Got me ten feet off the ground
I'm hearin what you say but i just can't make a sound
You tell me that you need me
Then you go and cut me down but wait
You tell me that you're sorry
Didn't think i'd turn around and say
It's too late to apologize it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize it's too late
I'd take another chance take a fall
Take a shot for you
And i need you like a heart needs a beat
But it's nothin new
I loved you with a fire red-
Now it's turning blue and you say
"sorry" like the angel heaven let me think was you
But i'm afraid
It's too late to apologize it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize it's too late
Bridge (guitar piano)
It's too late to apologize it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize it's too late
It's too late to apologize yeah
I said it's too late to apologize yeah-
I'm holdin on your rope got me ten feet off the ground
Goodbye Apathy
I can't sleep no not like I used to
I can't breathe in and out like I need to
It's breaking ice now to make any movement
What's your vice you know that mine's the illusion
And all at once
I can help you out
I'll be what you need
I'll do anything
Goodbye apathy so long apathy
So don't sit still
Don't you move away from here
So goodbye apathy
So long fancy free
Goodbye apathy
I don't wanna be you
I don't walk right
Not like I used to
There's a jump in my step as I rush to see you
I could be happy here as long as you're near to me
As long as you're close to me
Now that I'm alright
I can help you out
I'll be what you need
I'll do anything
Goodbye apathy
So goodbye apathy
So don't you stop pushing me
I can take so much
So goodbye apathy
So long fancy free
Goodbye apathy
I don't wanna be you
Everybody is watching you
Everybody is watching me too
Tyrant
Watching myself when I'm taking strides
But here comes the moon and it feels
And it feels like an informer, quick run away hide
Before they see you, you know it is all, all a glow
Walking on water seems parlays now
You got my trust and it feels
And it feels like sabotage when I'm pulling triggers back
On myself you know it is all, all I know, is all I know
And it feels so real from the outside looking in
And it feels so real from the outside
From the out, from the out
Tyrant, tyrant
Feel capable of most anything
This crippled bears gonna sing, gonna bring you
All the years is quick turn around, look your shadows could
Could not beautiful lies for you is what they do
And it feels so real from the outside looking in
And it feels so real from the outside
From the out, from the out
From the out, from the out tyrant
I'll stay with apathy I'm blind but I can see
The tyrant to the bone, yeah
I'll stay with apathy I'm blind but I can see
Don't justify me, don't justify me, justify me
Don't justify me, justify, justify me
From the out, from the out
From the out, from the out
From the out, from the out
And it feels so real from the outside looking in
Prodigal
We say good-bye
I turn my back
Run away run away
So predictable
Not far from here
You see me crack
Like a bone like a bone
I'm so breakable
And i take everything from you
But you'll take anything
Won't you
Run away run away
Like a prodigal
Don't you wait for me
Don't you wait for me
So ashamed so ashamed
But i need you so
And you wait for me
And you wait for me
I'm on the road
To who knows where
Look ahead not behind
I keep saying
There's no place to go
Where you're not there
On your rope i hold tight
But it's freeing
And i take everything from you
But you'll take anything
Won't you
Run away run away
Like a prodigal
Don't you wait for me
Don't you wait for me
So ashamed so ashamed
But i need you so
And you wait for me
And you wait for me
Everybody wants to be right
But only if it's not day light
I keep trying to find my way back
My way back
Run away run away
Like a prodigal
Don't you wait for me
Don't you wait for me
So ashamed so ashamed
But i need you so
And you wait for me
And you wait for me
Runaway

From you

Uh ohh
Now i stared at you
From across the room
Until both my eyes were faded
I was in a rush
I was out of luck
Now i'm so glad that i waited
Well you were almost there
Almost mine yeah
They say love ain't fair
But i'm doing fine
Cause i swear it's you
I swear it's you
I swear it's you that i've waited for
I swear it's you
I swear it's you
I swear it's you that my heart beats for
And it isn't gonna stop
No it just won't stop
Uh oh oh
Yeah
Now you were fine by night
But when the morning light comes
Comfortable as rain on sunday
And i'm a lucky soul
That holds your hand so tight
Hope you hear this one day
Don't fool yourself
This is my truth
I swear it's you
I swear it's you
I swear it's you that i waited for
I swear it's you
I swear it's you
I swear it's you that my heart beats for
And it ain't gonna stop
It just won't stop

Steal my bones
From 1000 miles apart
Feels so cold
Felt just like its ten shades of winter
And i need the sun
Ohh yeahh

Ohh yeah
All We Are
I tried to paint you a picture
The colors were all wrong
Black and white didn't fit you and all along
You were shaded with patience
Your strokes of everything
That I need just to make it but I can see that
Lord knows I failed you time and again
But you and me are alright
We won't say our goodbyes
You know it's better that way
We won't break we won't die
It's just a moment of change
All we are all we are is everything that's right
All we need all we need a lover's alibi yeah
I walked a minute in your shoes
They never would've fit
I figured there's nothing to lose
I need to get
Some perspective on these words
Before I write them down
You're an island and my ship has run aground
Lord knows I'll fail you time and again
But you and me are alright yeah
We won't say our goodbyes
You know it's better that way
We won't break we won't die
It's just a moment of change
All we are all we are is everything that's right
All we need all we need a lover's alibi
Every single day that I can breathe
You change my philosophy
I'm never gonna let you pass me by
So don't say your goodbyes
You know it's better that way
We won't break we won't die
It's just a moment of change yeah ooh ooh
So don't say your goodbyes
You know it's better that way
We won't break we won't die
It's just a moment of change
All we are all we are is everything that's right
All we need all we need
A lover's alibi yeah ooh ooh
So don't say our goodbyes
You know it's better
We won't break we won't die
Ooh ooh ooh ooh-whoa
Ahh ahh ooh ooh-ooh
Won't die won't die this time
Won't die won't die oh
Someone To Save You
Took you for everything

You are so much longer
That made sense
Apathy in disguise
Crept on you like a spy
Hurt you in ways

Honesty

It sets you free
Like someone to save you
Let it go
But hurry now
There's undertow
And i don't want to lose you now
All right
Sit down and spill your heart
Lets start from the very start
Cause i can see by your eyes
You're wasted
Your energy comes and goes
You taking your time you know
Nothing can change what happened you saw
Back to the start now
I wont let you go this way now
Honesty
Is what you need
It sets you free
Like someone to save you
Let it go
But hurry now
There's undertow
And i don't want to lose you
And i don't want to lose you now
Now

Come Home
Hello world
Hope you're listening
Forgive me if I'm young
For speaking out of turn
There s someone I've been missing
I think that they could be
The better half of me
They're in their own place trying to make it right
But I m tired of justifying
So i say you'll
Come home
Come home
Cause I've been waiting for you
For so long
For so long
And right now there's a war between the vanities
But all i see is you and me
The fight for you is all I've ever known
So come home
Oooh
I get lost in the beauty
Of everything i see
The world ain't as half as bad
As they paint it to be
If all the sons
If all the daughters
Stopped to take it in
Well hopefully the hate subsides and the love can begin
It might start now
Well maybe I'm just dreaming out loud
Until then
Come home
Come home
Cause I've been waiting for you
For so long
For so long
And right now there's a war between the vanities
But all i see is you and me
The fight for you is all I've ever known
Ever known
So come home
Everything i can't be
Is everything you should be
And that's why i need you here
Everything i can't be
Is everything you should be
And that's why i need you here
So hear this now
Come home
Come home
Cause I've been waiting for you
For so long
For so long
And right now there's a war between the vanities
But all i see is you and me
The fight for you is all I've ever known
Ever known
So come home
Come home
Dreaming Out Loud
Well hello sir
We look for monday
Confident we'll get there someday
Pushing all the papers to a wealthy man
Might I sa A beautiful tie you wear
And How do you find such lovely polka dots and stripes these days
Break all my thoughts
Hit the floor like I'm makin the score
I'm the king of the world
I'm a popular man
Count by zeros to ten
If you can't well I can
Don't let any one wake me
I'm dreaming out loud
Dreaming out loud and all at once it's so familiar to see
I'm dreaming out loud
Dreaming out loud
Can't find a puzzle to fit in to piece a part of me
Curtain calls a sanctuary
Actors in the cloth
They freak me out
Mocking my purpose in the magazines
Famous how they make you feel grand
They're always there to hold your hand
In times of trouble they're best of friends
Break all my thoughts
Hit the floor like I'm makin the score
I'm the king of the world
I'm a popular man
Count by zeros to ten
If you can't well I can
Don't let any one wake me
I'm dreaming out loud
Dreaming out loud and all at once it's so familiar to see
I'm dreaming out loud
Dreaming out loud
Can't find a puzzle to fit in to piece a part of me
They don't care what you say
They don't care what you think
All they care
What you do
Long as your of beat
Take a look at yourself
Storm tries to come and wreck my world
No
I won't let it
Stumble to escape through anchored drapes made of bedding
I'm dreaming out loud
Dreaming out loud and all at once it's so familiar to see
I'm dreaming out loud
Dreaming out loud
Can't find a puzzle to fit in to piece a part of me
Well hello sir
We look for mondays

If i could sleep forever
If i could sleep forever
If i could sleep forever

All Fall Down
Step out the door and it feels like rain
That's the sound (that's the sound) on your window pane
Take to the streets but you can't ignore
That's the sound (that's the sound) you're waiting for
If ever your world starts crashing down
Whenever your world starts crashing down
Whenever your world starts crashing down
That's where you'll find me
Yeah God love your soul and your aching bones
Take a breath take a step meet me down below
Everyone's the same
Our fingers to our toes

But we're on the road
If ever your world starts crashing down
Whenever your world starts crashing down
Whenever your world starts crashing down
That's when you find me
(Yeah) Lost till you're found
Swim till you drown
Know that we all fall down
Love till you hate
Strong till you break

If ever your world starts crashing down
Whenever your world starts crashing down
