One Hundred and Twenty-Five Internal Jokes
crunch.

The luggage track was running, making a difficult friction sound, and stubbornly found a place among the bustling and noisy crowd.
Maxim looked at Ronan, then turned his head to look at Oli, without hiding his confusion, and finally looked at Ronan again, pointing at Oli, "What's wrong with him?"
Since the plane landed, Ollie has been in a state of "penguin" runaway. Maxim and Cliff don't know why, and their heads are full of question marks without answers.
There was a deep smile in Ronan's eyes, but he didn't answer the question, "How long will it take us to get to the hotel? Can you call the hotel restaurant in advance to prepare lunch? I can eat a cow now."
Maxim rolled his eyes relentlessly, "You just ate the meal on the plane, and then you're hungry again?"
"Because someone was so inspired, I couldn't finish my plane meal, okay?" Ronan immediately became agitated and protested strongly with righteous indignation.
Although the plane meals on domestic flights in the United States are... hard to describe, and I don’t know where to start to complain, but the plane meals that Ronan has tasted are really limited, and there is no way to compare them, so naturally he won’t dislike them; In terms of the taste of food, the more important thing is that you are not full!
Maxim immediately grasped the key point, "Inspiration?" He couldn't help but cast his gaze towards Oli again, looking for it with great concern.
Ollie ignored Maxim, but glared at Ronan, expressing his attitude with his eyes.
Maxim had to turn his head to look at Ronan again, and then he could see Ronan mumbling, "How can I leave the food? I left the food just now and I didn't eat enough at all. Now I am in a state of hypoglycemia and if I don’t add a little blood sugar, I will pass out and there will be a rehearsal in the afternoon, how do I know when the rehearsal will last”…
"Ronan?" Maxim had to interrupt Ronan's chanting.
Ronan glanced at Maxim expressionlessly, but didn't speak.
Maxim immediately realized the crux of the problem, "Don't worry, we can dine there during the lunch time of the hotel restaurant. There is time."
Ronan muttered a few more words, and then answered angrily, "Ollie had some inspiration during the flight, and we'll discuss it while recording it, and we can discuss it later." Now he is hungry, Ronan is indeed a little irritable——
Not full, and he wasn't joking.
But Maxim couldn't wait, and directly ignored Ronan's hunger problem, "Has Ollie started creating again? It's a good thing, why wait? I'm going to see it now."
Maxim immediately came to Oli's side, his eyes revealed eager anticipation, "Oli, are all your creations?"
"No..." Although a little depressed, Ollie was still more obedient than Ronan, and said honestly, "I wrote the lyrics, and Ronan wrote the melody. But the last lyrics were written by Ronan!"
After talking about it, Ollie muttered in alien language again, expressing his strong dissatisfaction, which made Ronan laugh out loud again.
Actually, it’s not a big deal. Strictly speaking, it’s not even a funny thing. It’s more of a feeling created by the situation and atmosphere at that time. After leaving that situation, the feeling at that time is gone. Only Ronan and Ou Lee was able to understand what was going on.
Just now, Ronan captured some fragmented inspiration from Ollie's words, and wrote a lyrics. The name of the song is "Kill-Me-Slower", which literally means to kill more slowly. Die me, corresponding to Ollie's "kill me slowly".
As a result, Ollie thought that Ronan was complaining about himself, and he had to protest "why it's not a slow suicide but a more slow suicide".
Ronan swears that he didn't mean that, he just changed "slowly" to "slower", but in the high-pressure environment of the cabin, it's like having a conversation with a fishbowl hat, Ronan himself doesn't remember Say something, and end up pissing off Ollie.
And then... and that's it.
It's not funny, but in just half an hour, Ronan and Ollie have written three songs, and the jokes in a trance state may indeed be a bit strange and not normal.
Judging from the lyrics alone, there is no clue at all. Ronan is describing a bitter reality——
"Have to get a job, but I hate working men, it makes me want to slit my wrists, and then swim in the ocean quietly burning slowly push-ups." (Note 1)
"Man, I hate my dreams, what's the life plan; I'm kind of tired of living, bills piled up in the back of the car."
The dejected lyrics are full of self-loathing and loss. They all know that their dreams can't fill their stomachs and they need to find a job, but their rigid life suffocates them, and they are finally trapped between dreams and dreams. Slow suicide in the chaotic gray area between realities.
Confused future, full of bills; gray life, black future.
It is so cruel and so helpless, just like the saying, "I hate my dream", he also hopes that he can give up his dream and admit his ordinaryness.
This is indeed a que black lyrics.
Of course, the melody written in Ronan's mind is not hardcore rock or sad soul, but light rock with some funk colors, using a brisk and playful rhythm to complain about his meaningless persistence. "Get Out of My Head" has the same effect. It can be seen as a continuation of the same style, laughing and crying, and it is more lazy and casual, like bathing in the sun and embracing the darkness.
However, it cannot be seen just through the text, because all those emotions and emotions are carried on the melody.
Like "Get Out of My Head", the creation of "Slower Suicide" is also very fast. About half an hour before and after, Ronan and Ollie completed the creation together, and now there are some finishing touches, mainly the chord writing of instruments And the later arrangement, but Ronan already had a clear idea.
Therefore, in Ronan's view, this is an indie light rock song with a self-deprecating style, but in the eyes of Ronan and Ollie, it has a different look.
Maxim could neither see the color of light rock nor any humorous demeanor, so he looked at Ronan and Ollie with question marks all over his head, "...are you crazy?"
I don't want to, but such a sentence reminded the two of them at the same time of the dark night conversation last night, and the beginning of today's cabin creation——
Ollie did come up with really, really dark lyrics, and it ended up being Ronan-inspired three tracks, each lighter than the last, so...they're crazy. The contrast between emotion and melody further brings out their atmosphere of joy in bitterness.
But what else can it do? After all, life has to go on. Instead of crying and complaining about the status quo, it is better to face suffering with a smile.
"Ha ha!"
Ollie and Ronan exchanged a look, after all, they couldn't hold back, and then burst out laughing.
