Kata-kata Miris dan Kalimat Patah Hati

I'm a mess right now
Inside out
Searching for a sweet surrender
But this is not the end

I can't work it out
How going through the motions
Going through us

I've known it for the longest time
And all of my hopes
All of my words
Are all over written on the signs
When you're on my road
Walking me home

See the flames inside my eyes
It burns so bright I wanna feel your love, no
Easy baby maybe I'm a liar
But for tonight I wanna fall in love
And put your faith in my stomach

I messed up this time
Late last night
Drinking to suppress devotion
With fingers intertwined

I can't shake this feeling now
We're going through the motions
Hoping you'd stop

And though I've only caused you pain,
You know but all of my words will always be low
Although all the lies we spoke
When you're on my road

Loving can hurt, loving can hurt sometimes
But it's the only thing that I know
When it gets hard, you know it can get hard sometimes
It is the only thing that makes us feel alive

Loving can heal, loving can mend your soul
And it's the only thing that I know, know
I swear it will get easier,
Remember that with every piece of you
And it's the only thing we take with us when we die

Rahasia Bulan dan Mentari

Latte menyengat dari cangkir bundar di depan hidungku

Si Panjang dan Pendek masih saja berkejar-kejaran

Begitu pula Bulan yang tak lelah menggapai Mentari

Atau Mentari yang selama ini berusaha mendekap Bulan

Entahlah...

Mereka pintar menyimpan rahasia dalam diam

Tapi aku jadi berpikir sejenak

Tak ada benda bersinar lain di langit kecuali mereka

Ada tapi jauh...

Lantas kenapa mereka tak bisa bersatu

Keduanya menahan sepi dalam kesendirian

Saling kejar, entah saling lari

Tak ada yang tahu yang terjadi sebenarnya

Itu hanya terjadi antara mereka saja

Rasa itu... entah sepi, entah benci

Tapi Mentari dan Bulan tak pernah bersama

Nyaris, selalu saja nyaris

Bukan selalu berusaha lebih keras untuk menggapai Mentari..

Tapi selalu nihil, seolah keindahan mentari meredupkan semangatnya

Lantas aku teringat kita

Aku si Bulan dan kau Mentarinya..

Hah...

Saat ini latte ini malam ini

Sebaiknya hanya aku dan Bulan saja

Nothing Ever Hurt Like You

A Duet with: James Morrison

One, two, three, four

Loving you was easy, playing by the rules
But you said love tastes so much better when it's cruel
To you everything was just a game
And oh yeah, you played me good
But I want you, I want you, I want you
So much more than I should, yes I do

I've got my hands up, so take your aim, yeah, I'm ready
There's nothing that we can't go through
Oh, it hit me like a steel freight train when you left me
And nothing ever hurt like you, nothing ever hurt like you

I was naive and wide-eyed, but you made me see
That you don't get to taste the honey
Without the sting of a bee, no, you don't
Oh yes, you stung me good, oh yeah, you dug in deep
But I'll take it, I'll take it, I'll take it
Till I'm down on my knees, on my knees

Oh, I've got my hands up, so take your aim, yeah, I'm ready
There ain't nothing that I won't do
Walk a thousand miles on broken glass
It won't stop me from making my way back to you
It's not real until you feel pain
And nothing ever hurt like you, nothing ever hurt like you
Oh, nothing hurt like you, you got to believe me, alright

Oh, everything was just a game, yes, you played me good
But I want you, I want you, I want you, I want you, I want you

Oh, I've got my hands up, so take your aim, yes, I'm ready
There ain't nothing that we can't go through
Oh, it hit me like a hurricane when you left me
But I'd do it all again for you

I'll walk a thousand miles on broken glass
It won't stop me from making my way back to you
It's not real until you feel the pain
And nothing ever hurt like you, nothing ever hurt like you

Nothing in the whole wide world
Nothing ever, nothing ever, nothing ever
Nothing ever hurt like you, like you
Like you, like you, hurt like you
Will ever, will never hurt like you, you, you, you
Nothing ever hurt like you

I'm Still Breathing

A Duet with Katy Perry

I leave the gas on
Walk the alleys in the dark
Sleep with candles burning
I leave the door unlocked
I'm weaving a rope and
Running all the red lights
Did I get your attention
'Cause I'm sending
All the signs that
The clock is ticking
And I'll be giving
My two weeks

Pick your favorite
Shade of black
You'd best
Prepare a speech
Say something funny
Say something sweet
But don't say
That you loved me

'cause I'm still breathing
But we've been
Dead for awhile
This sickness has no cure
We're going down for sure
Already lost our grip
Best abandon ship

Maybe I was too pale
Maybe I was too fat
Maybe you had better
Better luck in the sack
No formal education
And I swore way too much
But I swear
You didn't fucking care
'Cause we were in love

So as I write this letter
And shed my last tear
It's all for the better
That we end this here
Let's close this chapter
Say one last prayer
But don't say
That you loved me

We're Here, Then What?

tick tock
tick tock
do not mock
watch the clock
you are not rock!

I said I love you
but, I dont know if that's true


We're here, then what?

Berseri-seri karena Bertemu

aku menunggu
sudah puas dengan kesendirian dan penantian,
berharap semua berakhir bahagia


ribuan malam telah merayap, kelabuiku dengan waktu yang terus menggoda
akhirnya dirimu berdiri di sana...
berakhirlah pencarianku
Tuhan memang selalu punya kejutan untukku,
setelah lama menyiksaku karena dipisahkan darimu, kini Ia temukan kita kembali...


aku tak berubah, begitu pun kau. 
bedanya, aku masih dengan ribuan memoriku tentangmu, dan kau, masih segar seperti batita yang manis

Gadis Merah Jambu

Tubuh mungilnya keseringan terbalut pakaian berwarna senada: merah muda 

Saat temaram diganti kicauan nuri muda, ia bangun dengan senyum yang sama sebelum tidur 

Kadang kecut masam, kadang kelampau girang 

Ia memang seperti iklim di pesisir, sukar ditebak kecuali oleh nelayan 

Semuanya tergantung dari yang dilewatinya sebelum senja melahap surya

Bahkan di sela sela detik, perangainya bisa berganti seperti mimikri bunglon Benar-benar bak iklim dan cuaca 

Tapi selalu terhibur oleh penari dan penyenandung bermata sipit Ia pun pintar bersenandung, bahkan gemar 

Di bawah hujan terkadang ia senang, tapi yah, saat ada lengang waktu, ia pilih molor 

Tidur di atas kasur, sambil mimpi tentang penghibur sipitnya 

Kalau ingin bangun, nafsu molor di atas kasur merah muda timbul lagi orangnya itu pemilik
