Singer

　　Kelly Brianne Clarkson (born April 24, 1982) is an American singer and songwriter. She rose to fame in 2002 after winning the first season of American Idol, and has since been established as "The Original American Idol.

Song

　　Breaking your own heart is in her fifth studio album, Stronger (2011).

　　This song is about love. When I listen this song, I always feel sad, no matter I don’t know the lyrics.

　　I think it is a good song when you are in a failed love. You can listen to this song, and express emotion.

Lyrics

Shaking your head like it's all wrong
Before you're here you're already gone
在此準備離去時，你無奈地搖首，好似整件事都錯了
And even with the light all around you
即使光亮照著你的周圍替你打亮道路
You're all alone in the dark.
卻發現自己仍獨自一人在黑暗之中
You're breaking your own heart
望著自己那破碎的心
Taking it too far down the lonely road
難以拾取的太過攏長的寂寞的路
You say you just want love
你說你只是想要愛情
But when it's close enough you just let it go
但愛離你很近的時候你卻讓他從指尖溜走
The very thing you've been the most afraid of
這是你最害怕的事
You've been doing it from the start, breaking your own heart.
從一開始就做的事，你打碎了自己的心
Too many tears, too many falls
太多的淚水如瀑泉
It's easier here behind these walls
卻太容易被忽略
But you don't have to walk in the shadows
而你不用在這些暗影之中遊走
Life is so hard.
人生就是如此
You're breaking your own heart
你擊碎了自己的心
Taking it too far down the lonely road
難以拾取的太過攏長的寂寞的路
You say you just want love
你說你只是想要愛情
But when it's close enough you just let it go
但愛離你很近的時候你卻讓他從指尖溜走
The very thing you've been the most afraid of
最害怕的事情還是發生了
You've been doing it from the start, breaking your own heart.
從一開始就做的事，你擊碎了自己的心

You're breaking your own heart.
It's not too late, I'm still right here.
If only you'd let go of your fears
雖然你讓自己心碎，但那不算太遲，如果放下你的恐懼，我仍然在這
You're breaking your own heart
你讓自己心碎
Taking your own heart down the lonely road
而重拾破碎的心的寂寞道路漫長
You say you just want love
你說你只是想要愛情
But when it's close enough you just let it go
卻在它離你很近的時候讓它從指尖溜走
The very thing you've been the most afraid of
你害怕的事終究還是發生了
You've been doing it from the start, breaking your own heart.
從一開始就讓自己的心破碎
You're breaking your own heart
讓自己的心傷痕累累

Opinion

This week teacher gave us a useful website, too. It’s called ESL Podcast. There are many different topic in it. You can choose one which you are interested in. This web’s advantages are that you can clearly listen pronunciation of every words ,and it also explain the difficult words. It’s a good website for us to learn English .

       

        This topic is about “Avoiding Topics in Conversation” ,I think is a good topic for us to learn. Talking about his/her love life is impolite, especially you are unfamiliar. When we are talking to someone , avoid the personal topic. What you don’t want to done to you, don’t do to others.
