Low

Have you ever been lost
Floating on the ground
Like a fading frost
You've fallen asleep
Next to your bed
And you feel so low
Oh they've stolen your pride
Stand up while your conscience sits aside
I've made up my mind
Half of the time and I feel so low

Stay and hijack the hurt
I feel so low I feel so high
Take a look inside my mind

If the object was clear
There wouldn't be a point
Only godless fear
By the end of July
I wonder will I still feel so low
Oh I am host to a guide
Moving in time
And falling in line
I've made up my mind
The papers are signed
And I feel so low

Stay and hijack the hurt
I feel so low I feel so high
Take a look inside my mind

Once a lover
Never suffer
So far away from here
Feeling hollow
Head to toe so low

Stay and hijack the hurt
I feel so low I feel so high
Take a look inside my mind

All Across The World

Underneath the shelf cracks appear in thick enamel
In this laps excuse for wasting time
I wait for signals shooting stars
I'd scrape through every branch
Coz I need to come down

Underneath the home
I lived in I was a page in someone's book
And know one asked me why
The page was fifteen stories high
I'm underneath that home wondering why

All across the world
There are things we need to forget and forgive
Sometimes we have to try and shed the damage we don't need
Oh justice shake your head
I'm wasting my time

We can break this drought
Wanna tell ya I love ya I need ya in the night
Sometimes I get so full
I wanna tell ya I'm feeling alright
I'm shaken to the bone
And on my way home

Adjust an omen at the door
Singing baby wont you please get a hold without it
And while you sit there on the phone tell me baby
I'm a liar you don't seem to care what I care about and baby it's a shame
To be wasted

All across the world
There are things we need to forget and forgive
Sometimes we have to try and shed the damage we don't need
Oh justice shake your head
I'm on my way home

Insomnia

Tomorrow will be another part of yesterday
And yesterday will be another part of the day before

Wait, I hear another song insomnia
About the days I wasn't tired
And doing that "fun retro look"

I stay awake for days
I stay awake for days
But I'd sit awake in daze anyway
I'm a maze of chains

Hey don't use the term accommodation
I won't be there for that and that will never be there for me

And I need to get some sleep slash resolution
About the days I wasn't tired
And doing that "fun retro thing"

I stay awake for days
I stay awake for days
But I'd sit awake in daze anyway
I'm a maze of chains

Over in the corner of a circle
I sleep behind this bedroom
I see "fun retro look"
Dine behind a suitcase in an empty room
It's time to leave millions behind
Hey that's what I took from retro look

I stay awake for days
I stay awake for days
But I'd sit awake in daze anyway
I'm a maze of chains

Mind reader

I heard a hole in the silence
I saw a crack in the plan but I got lazy ways
You're not a private detective take off your telephone shoes
My thoughts going out of phase
And these are the better days

Still it seems funny
Sticking like honey
Wrote my own article
Now I'm hummin'
She takes pictures through my lazy eyes
And I'm dreamin' girl it's your money

When we're alone and out drivin' ourselves around all the bends
She's got crazy ways
And I'm all woo ooh

Don't know what you want
Don't know what you want
No I'm not a mind reader baby come on

Don't know what you want
Don't know what you want
No I'm not a mind reader baby

I got addictive dependent
I got a cold change of heart
But I got lazy ways
We're all woo ooh

Don't know what you want
Don't know what you want
No I'm not a mind reader baby come on

Don't know what you want
Don't know what you want
No I'm not a mind reader
Mind reader
Mind reader baby come on

The Man That Knew Too Much

There was a man that knew too much
With a panic attic mind but a chance to numb
His golden touch to ignore the will of time
Had me struck down open to the fact
I was standing in a line with a broken occupation on my back

Time is not a moment we're letting slip away
There's nothing left to say it's changing every day
The way I'm thinking in different shades of grey
It's not enough to say that this is my love

He had the anti midas touch
Temporary state of mind
But a chance to die enhances growth
Now I'm trembling all the time
Stumble round making faces on the scene
Scene what what
Stumble round make your faces on your own

Time is not a moment we're letting slip away
There's nothing left to say it's changing every day
The way I'm thinking in different shades of grey
It's not enough to say that this is my love

I'm not your mocking bird
That sings your cellar song
She got a paper run
You're compensated

Can we all gather round on the scene
Can we all move around on our own
Are ya a mover shaker all alone

Time is not a moment we're letting slip away
There's nothing left to say it's changing every day
The way I'm thinking in different shades of grey
It's not enough to say
Time is not a moment we're letting slip away
There's nothing left to say but this is my love

I'm not your mocking bird
That sings your cellar song
She got a paper run to write your letters wrong

Those Thieving Birds (Part 1)/Those Thieving Birds (Part 2)

(part 1)
Those thieving birds
Hang strung from an empty nest
This swan plagued pond
Foresaken and under whelmed
Those leaving words
Hang strong from an emptiness
Hang strong from an emptiness
Those thieving birds
Hang strung from an empty nest
(Part2)
Lonely in life
Dead or alive
If the truth had incursions
No more goodbyes
No more big lies
If the truth had versions
As long as you and I are together
I'll hold onto the jewellery
Like staple strapped clenched fist and tongs

Hang strung from an empty nest
Those thieving birds
Hang strung from an empty nest

If You Keep Losing Sleep

If you keep losing sleep over other lovers
If you keep losing me you're gonna be bored
If you're up chimney sweep under rubble covers
If you keep counting sheep and being adored

You're a tombstone in the mud
Playing twister in a bubble again
I need a breath a wind so pure
To dry up the mud over me
To be reborn not born again
Erase my regret from the start
Shot the model
Flaking temporary skin you're no burden
Such reduction
Such seductive silent wine hop scotch trigger

If you keep losing sleep over other lovers
If you keep losing me are you gunna be
If you're up chimney sweep under rubble covers
If you keep losing me

You're a tombstone in the mud
Playing twister in a bubble again
If you keep losing sleep over other lovers
If you keep losing me you're gonna be
If you keep losing sleep over other lovers
If you keep losing me

Straight Lines

Breathing from a hole in my lung
I had no one
But faces in front of me
Racing through the void in my head
To find traces of a good luck academy

Sparks ignite and trade them for thought
About no one
And nothing in particular
Washed the sickened socket and drove
Resent nothing
There's good will inside of me

Wake me up low with a fever
Walking in a straight line
Set me on fire in the evening
Everything will be fine
Waking up strong in the morning
Walking in a straight line
Lately I'm a desperate believer
But walking in a straight line

Something I will never forget
I felt desperate
And stuck to the marrow
Invisible to everyone else
I'm a sex change
And a damsel with no heroine

Wake me up low with a fever
Walking in a straight line
Set me on fire in the evening
Everything will be fine
Waking up strong in the morning
Walking in a straight line
Lately I'm a desperate believer
But walking in a straight line

I don't need no time to say
There's no changing yesterday
If we keep talking and
I keep walking in straight lines

Wake me up low with a fever
Walking in a straight line
Set me on fire in the evening
Everything will be fine
Waking up strong in the morning
Walking in a straight line
Lately I'm a desperate believer
But walking in a straight line

Wanita Tercantik di Dunia?

Artikel ini khusus buat Anda kaum wanita. Tahukah Anda siapa wanita tercantik di dunia ini? Siapakah wanita yang paling beruntung memperoleh anugerah kecantikan yang luar biasa dari Tuhan? Apakah Britney Spears atau Angelina Jolie? Tak diragukan lagi mereka memang cantik dan telah dikenal oleh banyak orang. Tapi tahukah Anda siapa sebenarnya wanita tercantik di dunia ini?

Anda pasti penasaran kan, siapakah gerangan orang yang paling beruntung di dunia ini, yang mempunyai kecantikan yang luar biasa? Dan inilah jawabannya, orang yang paling cantik di dunia ini adalah :
A N D A

Saya ulangi Anda. Ya… Anda sendirilah orang yang paling cantik di dunia ini.

Jangan bertanya, kenapa saya mengatakan bahwa Anda lah yang paling cantik. Artikel ini hanya untuk mengingatkan kepada kita semua bahwa untuk menikmati hidup ini, modal pertama dan utama adalah rasa percaya diri dalam diri kita.

Jadi mulai dari sekarang, percayalah pada diri anda sendiri, bahwa anda adalah wanita tercantik atau anda adalah pria tertampan (bagi anda kaum pria) di dunia ini. Dengan begitu, anda bisa menikmati hidup ini dengan lebih percaya diri dan selalu “positive thinking” atas apa yang diberikan Tuhan kepada anda. Yakinlah, Tuhan selalu menciptakan yang terbaik buat hidup kita.

Masih Percayakah Anda dengan Hukum Karma?

Masih ingat apa kata orang-orang tua dulu, bila kita berbuat jahat terhadap orang lain, suatu saat kita pasti akan menerima balasan yang sama atas kejahatan tersebut? Dengan situasi zaman modern seperti saat ini, apakah anda masih percaya dengan hukum karma?

Ada sebuah cerita ‘lucu’ yang dialami oleh seorang teman wanita , sebut saja dia “A”. Nah si “A” ini justru dia percaya adanya hukum karma pada saat dia disakiti, dilukai, dikhianati oleh cowok/pacarnya atau orang lain? Pada situasi seperti itu, si “A” percaya bahwa cowok atau orang yang menyakitinya itu pasti akan menerima hukum karma dan mendapat balasan yang sama atas ‘kejahatan’ pada diri si “A”
Tapi ceritanya jadi terbalik, manakala justru si “A” yang menyakiti, melukai dan mengkhianati cowok atau orang lain, si “A” ini malah tidak percaya sama sekali sama hukum karma dan menganggap “hukum karma” ini hanya dongeng atau isapan jempol belaka!

Aneh bukan? Tapi inilah yang terjadi. Kebanyakan dari kita baru mempercayai adanya hukum karma saat kita sendiri yang jadi korban. Tapi kita menapikan dan tidak mengakui adanya hukum karma tersebut saat kita sendiri yang menjadi pelaku atas sebuah kebohongan, pengkhianatan atau sebuah kejahatan.

Jadi masih percayakah anda dengan hukum karma?

Kau dan Dia!

“Aku bukan nabi yang bisa sempurna, ku tak luput dari dosa, biarlah ku hidup seperti ini, takdir cinta harus begini, ada kau dan dia bukan ku yang mau”

Siapa sih orangnya yang nggak mau langgeng dalam menjalin sebuah kisah cinta? Setiap orang, termasuk kamu tentunya, saat menjalin sebuah hubungan kasih pasti menginginkan untuk bisa langgeng selamanya, bisa saling mencintainya untuk selama mungkin dan tentunya semesra mungkin, iya kan?

Pas pertama kali kamu jadian sama pacar kamu, tentu sudah bukan rahasia lagi bila kita selalu berjanji. Berjanji akan setia sehidup semati, berjanji untuk saling mencintai, berjanji untuk saling menjaga dan melindungi. Saat itulah, maka harapan kamu pun setinggi langit. Banyak dari kita mengkhayalkan sebuah kisah cinta yang indah seperti kisahnya Romeo and Juliet.

Tak salah memang kita berharap atau berkhayal, karena ada orang-orang di sekeliling kita yang memang sudah berhasil membina kisah cintanya, sehingga mereka menjadi pasangan yang serasi dan mempunyai sebuah kisah cinta yang indah dan mengagumkan.

Tapi seperti kata Rossa diatas, kita bukan nabi yang bisa sempurna. Setiap orang pasti tak luput dari dosa. Saat kekasih kita mulai menemukan sebuah kekurangan dalam diri kita, maka dia pun berlahan mulai berpaling dari kita dan mencari seseorang yang lebih sempurna dari kita. Hingga akhirnya datanglah Dia, orang ketiga dalam kisah cinta kamu.

Kau dan Dia, yah….. setiap orang pasti pernah ngalamin. Dia, orang yang sudah pasti punya kelebihan yang tak kita miliki. Dia, orang yang bisa memberikan kepada kekasih kita, apa yang tak bisa kita berikan. Dia, orang yang bisa membuat kekasih kita merasa lebih bahagia saat bersamanya daripada bersama kita. Dan Dia, yang akhirnya menghancurkan hubungan yang telah terbina selama ini. Dia, yang telah merampas mimpi-mimpi indah dalam mengarungi lautan cinta.

Tapi jangan pernah menapikan, karena Dia juga kita sadar bahwa kita hanyalah sekedar manusia yang tak sempurna, ada banyak kekurangan dalam diri kita. Dan ini semua, harusnya membuat kita sadar dan lebih mengakui akan keagungan Tuhan, Sang Maha Sempurna.

Terlepas dari rasa sakit hati kita, adanya Kau dan Dia sudah sepantasnya menjadikan kita tegar, sudah seharusnya kita mulai membina diri kita sendiri, menutupi kekurangan kita, dengan kelebihan-kelebihan yang kita miliki.

Saat kita akhirnya harus putus dengan kekasih tercinta, jadikan itu sebagai momentum dimana kita harus menjadi orang yang lebih baik. Hingga satu saat, ketika kita bertemu kembali dengan mantan kekasih kita, yang dia ingat bukan kekurangan kita, tapi kelebihan yang ada pada kita yang dulu tak pernah dia sadari saat bersama kita.

Apakah ini cukup atau tidak...

“Cukup ya cukup”, adalah sebuah ungkapan basa-basi yang biasanya berarti tidak cukup. Tak cukup menjelaskan “seberapa yang cukup”.

Seorang lulusan “segar” universitas mendapat gaji satu juta perbulan, Apa ini cukup? Mungkin tidak sih, tapi apa ia punya pilihan lain? Ia melihat ke sekelilingnya dan menemukan bahwa teman-temannya juga mendapat gaji yang sama pada mulanya. Apa ini cukup? Baiklah, untuk saat ini, ok juga, fine, cukup.

Seorang buruh untuk mendapat upah sebesar itu harus bekerja dulu selama bertahun-tahun, dan walaupun ini tak cukup untuk memenuhi kebutuhan keluarga, ia tak banyak mengeluh. Ia tahu bahwa banyak orang yang mendapat upah lebih sedikit ketimbang dia, sehingga ia mencoba memenuhi kebutuhan sampai akhir bulan dengan gaji yang ia peroleh. Tapi, apa ini cukup? Baiklah, ok juga, cukup.

Tanyalah pada seorang pembantu rumah tangga; ia bekerja hampir sepanjang hari. Dan, ia mendapat gaji lebih sedikit ketimbang seorang lulusan baru universitas yang hanya bekerja selama 8 jam sehari. Apa ia mengeluh? Apa ia iri pada para lulusan tersebut? Tidak, karena ia tahu bahwa mereka layak untuk itu, “Ia terdidik, sedangkan aku tidak.”

Setahun kemudian….

Lulusan ini bukan lagi “fresh graduate”, gajinya naik hingga 50 persen. Dan ia melihat ke sekelilingnya; ia menemukan bahwa beberapa temannya mendapat gaji lebih banyak. “Apa yang kamu katakan kawan? Apa peningkatan gaji ini cukup?” Ia menjawab, “Tidak, lihatlah temanku yang bekerja di perusahaan lain. Ia sekarang mendapat 2 juta rupiah setiap bulan plus bonus tunjangan lagi.”

Dan… kita berjumpa pula dengan buruh yang dengan susah payah mendapat peningkatan upah 10 persen saja, sama dengan yang diperoleh pembantu rumah tangga. Mereka begitu bahagia, “Kami baru mendapat kenaikan upah 10 persen lho. Lumayan, terimakasih Tuhan!”

Maka, bagaimana kita menyikapi keluhan si lulusan universitas ini?

Pertama-tama, apakah kedua hal ini bisa disikapi secara pukul rata?

Dan, kalau memang keluhan si lulusan universitas masuk di akal, lantas bagaimana komentar kita tentang buruh dan pembantu rumah tangga yang bisa merasa puas dengan peningkatan upah yang hanya 10 persen saja?

Pertanyaannya ialah, kapan cukup benar-benar cukup?

Dan, kapan tidak?

Dan, pertanyaannya lagi ialah, kapan sebuah keluhan itu layak dipertimbangkan dan masuk di akal?

Dan, kapan tidak?

Keluhan layak dipertimbangkan dan masuk di akal ketika ini dibuat oleh orang yang benar-benar pantas dihargai. Ini tak perlu dihiraukan saat dibuat oleh seseorang yang memang tak layak.

Apakah selama setahun ini si lulusan berkembang kemampuannya? Apa ia bekerja dengan baik? Apa ia berprestasi dengan memberi kontribusi tertentu? Dia juga harus mempertimbangkan ukuran dan kemampuan perusahaan tempat ia berkerja dong. Jika seniornya menerima bayaran 2 juta setelah bekerja selama 4 tahun, maka jelas ia tak dapat mengklaim gaji yang sama karena baru bekerja selama setahun. Dalam kasus semacam itu, perusahaan mungkin terlalu kecil baginya. Ia bisa bekerja keras untuk membuat perusahaan ini lebih besar, atau keluar dan cari perusahaan lain.

Jika selama setahun ini ia tak berkembang, ia masih terus menerus membuat kesalahan yang sama, dan cara kerjanya tak layak dihargai oleh majikannya – maka keluhannya sama sekali tak beralasan. Ia tak dapat mengharapkan gaji yang lebih tinggi hanya karena temannya yang bekerja di perusahaan lain di bayar lebih tinggi. Ini karena rasa iri saja.

Kita harus mempertimbangkan dan meninjau kemampuan kita sebelum mengeluh.

Karena, apa yang kita peroleh atau apa yang seharusnya kita peroleh seluruhnya bergantung pada apa yang kita perbuat – yang telah kita lakukan. Jangan mengharapkan output yang baik, jika inputnya jelek. Jangan mengharapkan peningkatan, jika kamu tak melakukan apapun guna mencapainya.
Kata “cukup” sebenarnya rancu. Ini salah kaprah. Tak berarti apa-apa. Karena ini tak ada ukuran bakunya.

Jika kamu ingin menggunakan kata ini, maka kamu harus mendefinisikannya sesuai kriteriamu sendiri. Apa yang cukup untukmu bisa jadi tak cukup untuk ku, ya…Bagaimana kamu mendefinisikannya berbeda dengan bagaimana aku mendefinisikannya, ya…tapi, kita harus tahu pasti kemampuan kita sebelum mendefinisikannya, sebelum kita menentukan kriterianya.

Orang bodoh berkata “ tidak cukup” dengan bodoh pula.

Orang bodoh mengeluh terus dengan bodoh pula.

Orang bijak tak pernah mengeluh.

Mereka tak ada waktu untuk itu. Mereka tak mau menghabiskan energi untuk hal semacam itu. Mereka justru bekerja keras untuk merubah yang “tidak cukup” menjadi “cukup”.

Maka, terakhir, seperti apa sih yang cukup dan yang tak cukup?

Kita hanya mengeluh ini tak cukup ketika kemampuan kita tak berkembang, bertumbuh, dan mampu merubah yang tak cukup itu. Dengan kata lain, keluhan kita sebenarnya pelarian saja.

Mereka yang penuh percaya diri dan pada kemampuannya, mereka yang bertekad untuk terus berkembang, bertumbuh dan berubah – tak pernah mengeluh.
“Apa yang kuperoleh tak cukup untuk memenuhi kebutuhan keluarga dan membiayai pengobatan sakit punggung Ibu di desa sana,” kata seorang teman.
“Ya, cari kerjaan yang lebih baik dong.” Aku menasehatinya.

“Tapi, amat sulit menemukan pekerjaan yang lain.” Ia menjelaskan.

Apa kamu melihat sebuah cara pandang di sini?

Jika memang sulit mencari pekerjaan, itu karena kamu sama dengan orang kebanyakan. Bursa kerja tak membutuhkanmu. Sehingga, kenapa kamu mengeluh?

Tapi, ia mempunyai seorang istri dan 3 anak untuk dinafkahi.

Dia juga harus membiayai pengobatan ibunya yang sakit….Baik, baik., baik majikanmu bisa jadi bersimpati denganmu. Tapi, ada 999 pegawai lain yang punya masalah yang sama. Dan, perusahaan memiliki skala pembayanan tertentu. Di atas segalanya, sebuah lembaga bisnis bukanlah lembaga sosial. Tujuannya amat jelas, komersil.

Ketika kamu merasa sulit untuk mencari pekerjaan lain, pekerjaan yang lebih baik – maka keluhanmu tak berarti sama sekali. Maka, terimalah “Cukup ya cukup” – untuk selamanya.

Ketika kamu tak merasa kesulitan untuk mendapat pekerjaan lain dengan prospek yang lebih baik – maka kamu tak perlu mengeluh. Kamu jarus bergerak untuk meraih pekerjaan itu.

Dan dalam kasus lain, keluhanmu tak masuk di akal, tak ada gunanya.

Maka, berhentilah mengeluh, cukup ya cukup…Gunakan seluruh energimu untuk bekerja untuk peningkatan hidupmu daripada memboroskan energi untuk mengeluh terus-menerus.

Friend

frends...
it's only y'all that keep on my side
after my own shadow.
can't be rejected,can't be delayed
y'all still fill me.
part of my life,part of my luv.
i'm here,y'all there
but we still together.
we're born to be different
but we're life to be the same.
fuck it all,throw it all
things that make us apart.

SURAT CINTA DARI YANG MAHA KUASA, RENUNGKAN.....

engkau bangun AKU tahu, engkau mandi AKU tahu, engkau
makan AKU tahu, engkau kerja AKU tahu, engkau tidur
AKU tahu, sampai engkau matipun AKU tahu.. tapi selama hidupmu apakah engkau mau tahu kalau AKU SELALU TAHU ?
Surat CINTA dari Allah SWT
Saat kau bangun pagi hari,AKU memandangmu dan
berharap engkau akan berbicara kepada KU, walaupun hanya
sepatah kata meminta pendapatKU atau bersyukur kepada KU atas sesuatu hal yang indah yang terjadi dalam hidupmu hari ini atau kemarin ...........

Tetapi AKU melihat engkau begitu sibuk mempersiapkan diri untuk pergi bekerja

AKU kembali menanti saat engkau sedang bersiap, AKU tahu akan ada sedikit waktu bagimu untuk berhenti dan menyapaKU, tetapi engkau terlalu sibuk


Disatu tempat, engkau duduk disebuah kursi selama lima belas
menit tanpa melakukan apapun. Kemudian AKU Melihat engkau menggerakkan kakimu..
AKU berfikir engkau akan berbicara kepadaKU tetapi engkau berlari ke
telephone dan menghubungi seorang teman untuk mendengarkan kabar terbaru...

AKU melihatmu
ketika engkau pergi bekerja dan AKU menanti dengan
sabar sepanjang hari. Dengan semua kegiatanmu AKU berfikir engkau terlalu sibuk mengucapkan sesuatu kepadaKU..

Sebelum makan siang AKU melihatmu memandang sekeliling,
mungkin engkau merasa malu untuk berbicara kepadaKU,
itulah sebabnya mengapa engkau tidak menundukkan kepalamu. Engkau memandang tiga atau empat meja sekitarmu dan melihat beberapa temanmu berbicara dan menyebut namaKU dengan lembut sebelum menyantap rizki yang AKU berikan,
tetapi engkau tidak melakukannya ............ .

Masih ada waktu yang tersisa dan AKU berharap
engkau akan berbicara kepadaKU, meskipun saat engkau pulang
kerumah kelihatannya seakan-akan banyak hal yang harus kau kerjakan..
Setelah tugasmu selesai, engkau menyalakan TV, engkau menghabiskan banyak waktu setiap hari didepannya, tanpa memikirkan apapun dan hanya menikmati acara yg ditampilkan.
Kembali AKU menanti dengan sabar saat engkau menonton TV dan menikmati makananmu tetapi kembali kau tidak berbicara kepadaKU .........

Saat tidur, KU pikir kau merasa terlalu lelah. Setelah mengucapkan selamat malam kepada keluargamu, kau melompat ketempat tidur dan tertidur tanpa sepatahpun namaKU, kau sebut. Engkau menyadari bahwa AKU selalu hadir untukmu. AKU telah bersabar lebih lama dari yang kau sadari.
AKU bahkan ingin mengajarkan bagaimana bersabar terhadap orang lain.. AKU sangat menyayangimu, setiap hari AKU menantikan sepatah kata, do'a, pikiran atau syukur dari hatimu.

Keesokan harinya ...... engkau bangun kembali
dan kembali AKU menanti dengan penuh kasih bahwa hari ini
kau akan memberiku sedikit waktu untuk menyapaKU ........ Tapi yang KU
tunggu ........ tak kunjung tiba ........ tak juga kau menyapaKU.

Subuh....... . Dzuhur .......
Ashyar .......... Magrib
.......... Isya dan Subuh kembali, kau masih mengacuhkan AKU .....
tak ada sepatah kata, tak ada seucap do'a,dan tak ada rasa, tak ada harapan dan keinginan untuk bersujud kepadaKU
..........

Apa salahKU padamu ...... wahai UmmatKU????? Rizki yang KU
limpahkan, kesehatan yang KU berikan, harta yang KU relakan,
makanan yang KU hidangkan, anak-anak yang KUrahmatkan, apakah hal itu tidak membuatmu ingat kepadaKU ............ . !!!!!!!
Percayalah AKU selalu mengasihimu, dan AKU tetap berharap
suatu saat engkau akan menyapa KU, memohon perlindungan KU,
bersujud menghadap KU ...... Yang selalu menyertaimu setiap saat
............ ...

Yang Slalu
Mengasihimu,

Separuh Jiwaku Pergi

Separuh Jiwaku Pergi
Memang indah semua
Tapi berakhir luka

Reff:
Benar ku mencintaimu
Tapi tak begini
Kau khianati hati ini
Kau curangi aku

Kau bilang tak pernah bahagia
Selama dengan aku
Itu ucap bibirmu
Kau dustakan semua
Yang kita bina
Kau hancurkan semua

JIKA CINTA DIA

Terlampau sering kau buat air mataku
Tak pernah kau tahu dalamnya rasa cintaku
Tak banyak inginku jangan kau ulangi
Menyakiti aku sesuka kelakuanmu
Ku bukan manusia yang tidak berfikir
Berulang kali kau lakukan itu padaku

Reff:
Jika cinta dia jujurlah padaku
Tinggalkan aku di sini tanpa senyumanmu
Jika cinta dia ku coba mengerti

Teramat sering kau membuat patah hatiku
Kau datang padanya tak pernah kutahu
Kau tinggalkan aku disaat ku butuhkanmu
Cinta tak begini selama ku tahu
Tetapi ku lemah karena cintaku padamu

*
Jika cinta dia jujurlah padaku
Tinggalkan aku disini tanpa senyumanmu
Jika cinta dia ku coba mengerti
Mungkin kau bukan cinta sejati di hidupku

Belajar Ikhlas

Suatu hari seorang bapak tua hendak menumpang
bus.
Pada saat ia menginjakkan kakinya ke tangga,
salah satu
sepatunya terlepas dan jatuh ke jalan.

Lalu pintu tertutup dan bus mulai bergerak dengan
cepat, sehingga ia tidak mungkin ia bisa memungut
sepatu yang terlepas tadi. Lalu si bapak
tua itu dengan tenang melepas sepatunya yang
sebelah dan melemparkannya
keluar jendela.

Seorang pemuda yang duduk dalam bus melihat
kejadian
itu, dan bertanya kepada si bapak tua, "Aku
memperhatikan apa yang
Anda lakukan Pak. Mengapa Anda melempakan
sepatu Anda yang sebelah juga ?"
Si bapak tua menjawab,
"Supaya siapapun yang menemukan sepatuku bisa
memanfaatkannya."

Si bapak tua dalam cerita di atas memahami filosofi
dasar dalam hidup -
jangan mempertahankan sesuatu hanya karena
kamu ingin memilikinya atau
karena kamu tidak ingin orang lain memilikinya.

Kita kehilangan banyak hal di sepanjang masa
hidup.
Kehilangan tersebut pada awalnya tampak seperti
tidak adil dan
merisaukan, tapi itu terjadi supaya ada perubahan
positif yang terjadi
dalam hidup kita.

Kalimat di atas tidak dapat diartikan kita hanya
boleh kehilangan hal-hal
jelek saja. Kadang, kita juga kehilangan hal baik.
Ini semua dapat diartikan: supaya kita bisa menjadi
dewasa secara
emosional dan spiritual, pertukaran antara
kehilangan sesuatu dan
mendapatkan sesuatu haruslah terjadi.

Seperti si bapak tua dalam cerita, kita harus belajar
untuk melepaskan
sesuatu. Tuhan sudah menentukan bahwa
memang itulah
saatnya si bapak tua kehilangan sepatunya.
Mungkin saja peristiwa itu
terjadi supaya si bapak tua nantinya bisa
mendapatkan sepasang sepatu yang
lebih baik.

" Satu sepatu hilang. Dan sepatu yang tinggal
sebelah tidak akan banyak
bernilai bagi si bapak. Tapi dengan
melemparkannya ke luar jendela, sepatu
gelandangan yang membutuhkan. "

Berkeras mempertahankannya tidak membuat kita
atau dunia menjadi lebih
baik.
Mungkin memang pedih pada awalnya... mungkin
butuh bulan berbilang tahun untuk menyeka bening
yang terkadang masih mengalir....

Namun kebahagiaan memang tak selamanya... dan
kesedihan takkan mengembalikan apa yang telah
berlalu...

Kita semua harus memutuskan kapan suatu hal
atau seseorang masuk dalam
hidup kita, atau kapan saatnya kita lebih baik
bersama yang lain.
Pada saatnya, kita harus mengumpulkan
keberanian untuk melepaskannya.

" Semoga kita bisa menjadi orang yg ikhlas yang
tetap masih bisa memberikan senyum terindah kita
pada dunia".

Maukah Kau menikaH denGanku????

Cinta??? Pernikahan??? kenapa kita mau menikah???? ya seribu satu alasan orang menikah…ada yang bilang cinta..bilang sayang…karena hidup lebih baik…tapi apakah yang ada di balik itu?

Ketika kita menikah berarti kita berkomitmen dengan seseorang untuk mendampingi dan didampingi hidup kita dengan pasangan kita sampai maut memisahkan… ya tetapi uyang menjadi pertanyaan kenapa setelah menikah orang ingin menikah???

ketika itu ada urusan pekerjaan saya bertemu dengan bos dari sebuah perusahaan X dan beliau menyambut saya dengan ramah dan mempersilahkan saya duduk.

Entah dari mana mulainya, dari urusan pekerjaan jadi cerita… Wanita ini kelihatan wanita berprinsip dan selalu senyum tentunya ketika bertemu orang. menurut kamu” kenapa bisa terjadi perceraian ? dari sekian banyak teman wanita saya yang bercerai mereka hanya bilang kejelekan dari sang suaminya..bla bla bla bla bla…dan tidak ada satupun yang bagus keluar dari mulut mereka. “

Ya hidup itu adalah pilihan dan kita tidak bisa merubah orang seperti yang kita inginkan. pernikahan bukanlah akhir tetapi adalah sebuah awal…dimana kita baru akan berlayar…

ketika kita menikah kita harus tau kenapa aku memilih dia…seperti contoh kita mau orang yang sabar dan sayang sama kita…setelah kita dapatkan kita mengomel kenapa sih dia tidak ganteng, dia tidak kaya, dia tidak pintar…itu adalah bagian yang harus kita terima..karena tidak ada manusia yang sempurna..kita tidak bisa merubah suami atau istri atau pacar kita jadi orang kaya, harus putih karena dia hitam…tetapi dbalik kelebihan ada kekurangan baik yang kita ketahui sebelum ataupun sesudah pernikahan… cobalah untuk tidak melihat kejelekan dari pasangan kita..dibalik kelemahan pasti ada kelebihan…

untuk apa kita mencintai orang yang kita cintai tetapi orang itu tidak bahagia bersama kita… Janganlah kau merasa memiliki karena bila kau merasa memiliki maka kamu akan merasa tidak nyaman dan aman hidupmu.

Pasangan, anak, teman , harta hanyalah titipan dan kapanpun akan bisa diambil oleh Tuhan. untuk itu kita harus menjaganya , menghargainya..sehingga keselarasan akan muncul..

Biarlah pasangan kita menjadi dirinya sendiri..jangan berharap terlalu banyak maka kita akan kecewa bila tidak sesuai… Jagalah keutuhan dengan saling menghargai… hanya anda dan pasangan anda yang tau dunia kalian sendiri.. Tentunya yang hanya bisa mengerti kita adlah kita sendiri dan Tuhan.. cintailah dirimu sebelum mencintai diri orang lain…

Pertemuan saya dan wanita itu merupakan sharing yang luar biasa… saya melihat seorang wanita yang hebat yang berusaha selalu menjadi lebih baik…

Warning

Bagian tubuh yg paling penting...

Ibuku selalu bertanya padaku apa bagian tubuh yang
paling penting.

Bertahun-tahun, aku selalu menebak dengan jawaban
yang aku anggap benar.

Ketika aku muda, aku pikir suara adalah yang paling
penting bagi kita sebagai manusia, jadi aku jawab,
"Telinga, Bu."
Jawabnya, "Bukan. Banyak orang yang tuli.
Tapi, teruslah memikirkannya dan aku menanyakanmu
lagi nanti."

Beberapa tahun kemudian sebelum dia bertanya padaku
lagi.
Sejak jawaban pertama, kini aku yakin jawaban kali
ini pasti benar.
Jadi, kali ini aku memberitahukannya,
"Bu, penglihatan sangat penting bagi semua orang,
jadi pastilah mata kita." Dia memandangku dan berkata,
"Kamu belajar dengan cepat, tapi jawabanmu masih
salah karena banyak orang yang buta."

Gagal lagi, aku meneruskan usahaku mencari jawaban
baru dan dari tahun ke tahun, Ibu terus bertanya
padaku
beberapa kali dan jawaban dia selalu,
"Bukan. Tapi, kamu makin pandai dari tahun ke tahun,
anakku."

Akhirnya tahun lalu, kakekku meninggal.
Semua keluarga sedih. Semua menangis. Bahkan, ayahku
menangis.
Aku sangat ingat itu karena itulah saat kedua kalinya
aku melihatnya menangis.
Ibuku memandangku ketika tiba giliranku untuk
mengucapkan selamat tinggal pada kakek.

Dia bertanya padaku, "Apakah kamu sudah tahu apa
bagian tubuh yang paling penting, sayang?"




Aku terkejut ketika Ibu bertanya pada saat seperti
ini. Aku sering berpikir, ini hanyalah permainan
antara
Ibu dan aku.

Ibu melihat kebingungan di wajahku dan memberitahuku,
"Pertanyaan ini penting. Ini akan menunjukkan padamu
apakah kamu sudah benar-benar "hidup".
Untuk semua bagian tubuh yang kamu beritahu padaku
dulu, aku selalu berkata kamu salah dan aku telah
memberitahukan kamu kenapa. Tapi, hari ini adalah
hari di mana kamu harus belajar pelajaran yang
sangat penting."

Dia memandangku dengan wajah keibuan.
Aku melihat matanya penuh dengan air mata.
Dia berkata, "Sayangku, bagian tubuh yang paling
penting adalah bahumu."

Aku bertanya, "Apakah karena fungsinya untuk menahan
kepala?"

Ibu membalas, "Bukan, tapi karena bahu dapat menahan
kepala seorang teman atau orang yang kamu sayangin
ketika mereka menangis.
Kadang-kandang dalam hidup ini, semua orang perlu bahu
untuk menangis. Aku cuma berharap, kamu punya cukup
kasih sayang dan teman-teman agar kamu selalu punya
bahu untuk menangis kapan pun kamu membutuhkannya."

Akhirnya, aku tahu, bagian tubuh yang paling penting
adalah tidak menjadi orang yang mementingkan diri
sendiri. Tapi, simpati terhadap penderitaan yang
dialamin oleh orang lain. Orang akan melupakan apa
yang kamu katakan...
Orang akan melupakan apa yang kamu lakukan...
Tapi, orang TIDAK akan pernah lupa bagaimana kamu
membuat mereka berarti.

Note from GOD

* Hari ini Aku akan menangani semua masalahmu
* Tolong, ingatlah bahwa Aku tidak memerlukan bantuanmu
* Bila kamu ditempatkan di dalam situasi yang kamu tidak mampu untuk menangani, janganlah berusaha untuk memutuskannya sendiri
* Lebih baik kamu masukkan ke dalam kotak “untuk ditangani oleh Tuhan sendiri”
* Masalah itu akan ditanggapi pada waktuKu, dan bukan waktumu
* Sekali masalah itu diletakkan di dalam kotak, janganlah kamu memikirkan atau mengeluarkannya lagi dari kotak itu.
* Memikirkan atau mengeluarkan kembali akan menunda pemecahan dari masalahmu
* Bila kamu mengira dapat menanganinya sendiri, tolong bawalah ke dalam doa-doamu, agar kamu yakin bahwa itulah pemecahan yang terbaik.
* Karena Aku sendiri tidak pernah tidur atau mengantuk, tidak ada gunanya bagimu untuk tidak tidur
* Istirahatlah, anakKu. Bila kamu ingin menghubungi Aku, Aku hanya sejauh sebuah doa
* Bila kamu sukar untuk tidur malam ini, ingatlah akan banyak keluarga yang bahkan tidak mempunyai tempat tidur untuk merebahkan dirinya
* Bila kamu kebetulan terjebak dalam kemacetan lalu lintas, janganlah cemas. Ada banyak orang dalam dunia ini yang tidak pernah menyetir mobil
* Bila kamu kebetulan mengalami hari yang sial, ingatlah akan orang yang sudah begitu lama tidak mempunyai pekerjaan
* Bila kamu cemas akan suatu hubungan kawan yang menjadi jelek, ingatlah akan orang yang tak pernah mengalami apa arti mengasihi dan sebaliknya dikasihi
* Bila kamu tidak suka bila akhir minggu telah lewat, ingatlah kepada wanita yang harus bekerja 12 jam sehari, selama satu minggu penuh untuk dapat memberikan makan kepada anak-anaknya
* Bila mobilmu rusak di tengah perjalanan, jauh dari keramaian kota untuk dapat bantuan, ingatlah akan mereka yang lumpuh yang akan gembira sekali untuk dapat berjalan
* Bila kamu mengamati dengan sedih sehelai rambut yang mulai memutih, ingatlah akan pasien kanker yang menjalani terapi kemo yang rindu dapat mengamati rambutnya
* Bila kamu tidak tahu dan bertanya-tanya, apakah sebenarnya tujuan hidupmu, berterima kasihlah. Terdapat banyak orang yang tidak memiliki umur panjang untuk mengetahuinya

last song

the morning she died in the my room
as the whole town was sleeping
she held her breath like a star in bloom
could burn down tomorrow

the summer breeze was caressing me
as i walked through the market
the golden light of a friend beside
had died out for good

no, nothing can amaze me
cause everything's behind me
no, nothing else can please me
since all i had been said free

the night before in the dining room
i recall it now
she said "i feel for you my friend
cause i'll soon be leaving"

the autumn comes just like other years
but i won't see the signs
the sun above's sowing magic seeds
but it wants someone back

Could Sky

i'd catch some stars for you
and just for you
i'd paint the grey sky blue
and just for you

so don't tell me you want the rain

from a cloudy sky
to wash away the pain
that i've given you again
i've always tried to find
what satisfies your mind
but i will never know
where you are to go
but i want you to know
do you want a golden ring?
i would buy you anything...

i'd read some poems for you
just for you
i hope they won't make you blue
like they used to do

don't tell me you want the rain
don't tell me you want the rain

Starcrossed

Behold this night, still and clear
You look here just like an angel sleeping
I wish I could ease your fears
I would catch the diamond tears you're weeping
In your eyes I would hide
By your side I could defy
The forces tearing us apart
But reality, as it seems
Looking back, is that our dream
Was fated from the start

Girl we're star-crossed and can't escape
We're condemned and can only wait
At this time now it's far too late
To save us from our fate

I'll remain in your hold
Body, mind, heart and soul
As long as I breathe
Though consequence takes its toll
All is out of our control
That's how it will be
So close your eyes my young bride
Listen to me one last time
There's something I have to say
When your faith turns to despair
Always will my love be there
And never fade away

Girl we're star-crossed and can't escape
We're condemned and can only wait
At this time now it's far too late
To save us from our fate
You can't save us
You can't save us

Girl we're star-crossed and can't escape
We're condemned and can only wait
At this time now it's far too late
The poison's in our veins
It's true
You know that I'd die for you
You know that I'd die for you
You know that I'd die for you

Forever true
I'll see you through

Wonderwall

Today is gonna be the day
That they're gonna throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you gotta do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do about you now

Backbeat, the word is on the street
That the fire in your heart is out
I'm sure you've heard it all before
But you never really had a doubt
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do about you now

And all the roads we have to walk are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
There are many things that I would
Like to say to you
But I don't know how

Because maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me
And after all
You're my wonderwall

Today was gonna be the day
But they'll never throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you're not to do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do about you now

And all the roads that lead you there were winding
And all the lights that light the way are blinding
There are many things that I would like to say to you
But I don't know how

I said maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me
And after all
You're my wonderwall

I said maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me
And after all
You're my wonderwall

I said maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me
You're gonna be the one that saves me
You're gonna be the one that saves me

Complimentary "Iris" Ringtone

And I'd give up forever to touch you,
Cause I know that you feel me somehow.
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be,
And I don't want to go home right now.

And all I can taste is this moment,
And all I can breathe is your life,
And sooner or later it's over,
I just don't want to miss you tonight.

And I don't want the world to see me,
Cause I don't think that they'd understand.
When everything's made to be broken,
I just want you to know who I am.

And you cant fight the tears that ain't coming,
Or the moment of the truth in your lies.
When everything feels like the movies,
Yeah you bleed just to know you're alive.

And I don't want the world to see me,
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand.
When everything's made to be broken,
I just want you to know who I am.

And I don't want the world to see me,
Cause I don't think that they'd understand.
When everything's made to be broken,
I just want you to know who I am.

And I don't want the world to see me,
Cause I dont think that they'd understand.
When everything's made to be broken,
I just want you to know who I am.
I just want you to know who I am.
I just want you to know who I am.
I just want you to know who I am.

Lonely as You

What would I do
Lonely as you
Pleasure or pain
I can't choose

What would I do
Lonely as you
Pleasure or pain
I can't choose

Wake up
You're dreaming
I can't stand your screaming
Drowning out these prayers
Just some words without meaning

Spare all the breaching
My secrets worth keeping
No one understands like I do

Keep out of reach
I'm your leading deletion
Hide behind these masks
Though they still see
Right through them

Every now and then
You're down and out my friend
Down and out again
Down and out again
Down and out again
But I'm down with you

One more time for the last time
One more time for release
One more time for the last time
Everyone wants to believe

Blame it on you
Thought these years
I've been losing
Blame it on the past
It's the last place I knew you
Blame all the children
They're raging and ruined
Blame it on the black and the blue

Every now and then
You're down and out my friend
Down and out again
Down and out again
Down and out again
But I'm down with you

One more time for the last time
One more time for release
One more time for the last time
Everyone wants to believe

Every now and then
You're down and out my friend
Down and out again
Down and out again
Down and out again
But I'm down with you

One more time for the last time
One more time for release
One more time for the last time
Everyone wants to believe

One more time for the last time
One more time for release
One more time for the last time
Everyone wants to believe

One more time for the last time
One more time for release
One more time for the very last time
Everyone wants to believe
All right

Times Like These

I am a one way motorway
I'm the one that drives away
then follows you back home
I am a street light shining
I'm a wild light blinding bright
burning off alone

it's times like these you learn to live again
it's times like these you give and give again
it's times like these you learn to love again
it's times like these time and time again

I am a new day rising
I'm a brand new sky
to hang the stars upon tonight
I am a little divided
do I stay or run away
and leave it all behind?

it's times like these you learn to live again
it's times like these you give and give again
it's times like these you learn to love again
it's times like these time and time again

Stand By Me

When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we see
No I won't be afraid
No I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

And darling, darling stand by me
Oh, now, now, stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me

If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
And the mountain should crumble to the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry
No I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

And darling, darling stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me, stand by me

Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me
Oh, now, now, stand by me
Oh, stand by me, stand by me, stand by me

Darling, darling stand by me
Stand by me
Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me

Don't Look Back in Anger

Slip inside the eye of your mind
Don't you know you might find
A better place to play
You said that you've never been (sounds like "bean" in order to rhyme
w/"seen")
But all the things that you've seen
They slowly fade away
So I'll start a revolution from my bed
'Cuz you said the brains I had went to my head
Step outside, summertime's in bloom
Stand up beside the fireplace
Take that look from off your face
You ain't ever gonna burn my heart out
And so, Sally can wait
She knows it's too late as we're walking on by
Her soul slides away
But don't look back in anger
I heard you say
Take me to the place where you go
Where nobody knows
Where nobody knows if it's night or day
Please don't put your life in the hands
Of a rock and roll band
Who'll throw it all away
I'm gonna start a revolution from my bed
'Cuz you said the brains I had went to my head
Step outside, 'cuz summertime's in bloom
Stand up beside the fireplace
Take that look from off your face
'Cuz you ain't ever gonna burn my heart out
And so, Sally can wait
She knows it's too late as she's walking on by
My soul slides away
But don't look back in anger
I heard you say
(guitar solo)
So, Sally can wait
She knows it's too late as we're walking on by
Her soul slides away
But don't look back in anger
I heard you say
So, Sally can wait
She knows it's too late as she's walking on by
My soul slides away
But don't look back in anger
Don't look back in anger
I heard you say
At least not today.

Bizzare Love Triangle

I get a shot right through into a bolt of blue

It's no problem of mine, but it's a problem I find

Living a life that I can't leave behind

There's no sense in telling me

The wisdom of a fool won't set you free

But that's the way that it goes and it's what nobody knows

And every day my confusion grows

CHORUS:

Every time I see you falling

I get down on my knees and pray

I'm waiting for that final moment

You say the words that I can't say

I feel fine and I feel good

I feel like I never should

Whenever I get this way, I just don't know what to say

Why can't we be ourselves like we were yesterday

I'm not sure what this could mean

I don't think you're what you seem

I do admit to myself that if I hurt someone else

Then I'll never see just what we're meant to be

Hey Leonardo

She don't care about my car
She don't care about my money
And that's real good because I don't got alot to spend
But if I did it wouldn't mean nothin'

She likes me for me
Not because I look like Tyson Beckford
With the charm of Robert Redford
Oozing out my ears
But what she sees
Are my faults and indecisions
My insecure conditions
And the tears upon the pillow that I shed

She don't care about my big screen
Or my collection of DVD's
Things like that just never mattered much to her
Plus she don't watch to much t.v.

And she don't care that I can fly her
To places she ain't never been
But if she really wants to go
I think deep down she knows that
All she has to say is when

She likes me for me
Not because I hang with Leonardo
Or that guy who played in 'Fargo'
I think his name is Steve
She's the one for me
And I just can't live without her
My arms belong around her
And I'm so glad I found her once again

And I'm so glad I found her once again
And I'm so glad I found her once again
Gazing at the ceiling
as we entertain our feelings in the dark
The things that we're afraid of are gonna show us
what we're made of in the end

She likes me for me
Not because I sing like Pavarotti
Or because I am such a hottie
I like her for her
Not because she's phat like Cindy Crawford
She has got so much to offer
Why does she waste all her time with me
There must be something there that I don't see

She likes me for me
Not because I'm tough like Dirty Hairy
Make her laugh just like Jim Carrey
Unlike the Cable Guy
But what she sees
Is that I can't live without her
My arms belong around her
And I'm so glad I found her once again
Found her once again
I'm so glad I found her once again
On again

Distorsi

Maunya selalu memberantas kemiskinan
Tapi ada yang selalu kuras uang rakyat
Ada yang sok aksi buka mulut protas protes
Tapi sayang mulutnya selalu beraroma alkohol

Yang muda mabuk, yang tua korup 2x
Korup terus, mabuk terus
Jayalah negeri ini, jayalah negeri ini
(Merdeka...!!)

Maunya selalu menegakkan keadilan
Tapi masih saja ada sisa hukum rimba
Ada yang coba - coba sadarkan penguasa
Tapi sayang yang coba sadarkan
Sadar aja nggak pernah

Setiap hari mabuk....
Ngoceh soal politik
Setiap hari korup
Ngoceh soal krisis ekonomi

Perut kekenyangan bahas soal kelaparan
Kapitalis sejati malah ngomongin soal keadilan sosial

Selalu monopoli!
Ngoceh soal pemerataan
Setiap hari tucau
Ngoceh soal kebobrokan

Twisted Transistor

Hey you, hey you devils little sister
Listening to your twisted transistor
Hold it between your legs turn it up, turn it up
The wind is coming through can't get enough

A lone-ly life where no one understands you
But don't give up because the music do
Music do! (x6)

Because the music do
And it is raging inside you, forever preaching
fuck you too
your scream's a whisper
Hang on you twisted transistor

Hey you, hey you finally you get it
The world ain't fair, eat you if you let it
And as your tears fall on your breast, your dress
Vibrations coming through you're in a mess

A lone-ly life where no one understands you
But don't give up because the music do
Music do! (x6)

Because the music do
And it is raging inside you, forever preaching
fuck you too
your scream's a whisper
Hang on you twisted transistor

Music do! (x4)

Hey you, hey you this won't hurt a bit (THIS WON'T HURT A BIT!
THIS WON'T HURT!)
Says who says who? anesthetize this bitch (ANESTHETIZE THIS BITCH!
ANESTHETIZE!)
Just let me be between you and me don't fit

Music do and it is reaching
Inside you, forever preaching
Fuck you too
your scream's a whisper
Hang on you twisted transistor

Afterglow

Feeling myself all of the time
All of the time feeling alright
Taking awhile raising a smile
Raising a smile makes it all worthwhile
But if you wanted to find peace of mind
Then you could find it anytime you liked
You are the afterglow
Feeling my way all of the time
All of the time doing just fine
Taking a page out of my life
Out of my life wouldn't it be nice
But if you wanted to find peace of mind
then you could find it anytime you liked
You are the afterglow
You are the midnight show
The only one I know
You come and then you go
And when you finally leave
You leave nothing for me

Flowers In The Window

When I first held you I was cold
A melting snowman I was told
But there was no-one there to hold
Before I swore that I would be alone forever more
Wow, look at you now
Flowers in the window
It's such a lovely day
And I'm glad that you feel the same
'Cos to stand up in the crowd
You are one in a million
And I love you so let's watch the flowers grow
There is no reason to feel bad
But there are many seasons to feel glad, sad, mad
It's just a bunch of feelings that we have to hold
But I am here to help you with the load
Wow, look at you now
Flowers in the window
It's such a lovely day
And I'm glad that you feel the same
'Cos to stand up in the crowd
You are one in a million
And I love you so let's watch the flowers grow
So now we're here and now is fine
So far away from there
And there is time, time, time
To plant new seeds and watch them grow
So there'll be flowers in the window when we go
Wow, look at you now
Flowers in the window
It's such a lovely day
And I'm glad that you feel the same
'Cos to stand up in the crowd
You are one in a million
And I love you so let's watch the flowers grow
Wow, look at you now
Flowers in the window
It's such a lovely day
And I'm glad that you feel the same
'Cos to stand up in the crowd
You are one in a million
And I love you so let's watch the flowers grow
Let's watch the flowers grow

Dear Diary

Dear diary
What is wrong with me
Cos I'm fine between the lines
Be not afraid
Help is on its way
A sentence suspended in air way over there
Dear diary
What else could it be
As nightshade descends like a veil under the sail of my heart
Be still don't stop until the end
Dear diary
What is wrong with me
Cos I'm fine between the lines

Writing To Reach You

Every day I wake up and it's Sunday
Whatever's in my head won't go away
The radio is playing all the usual
And what's a wonderwall anyway

Because my inside is outside
My right side's on the left side
'Cos I'm writing to reach you
But I might never reach you
I long to teach you about you
But that's not you

It's good to know that you are home for Christmas
It's good to know that you are doing well
It's good to know that you all know I'm hurting
It's good to know I'm feeling not so well

Because my inside is outside
My right side's on the left side
'Cos I'm writing to reach you
But I might never reach you
I long to teach you about you
But that's not you
Do you know it's true
And that won't do

Maybe then tomorrow will be Monday
And whatever's in my head should go away
Still the radio keeps playing all the usual
And what's a wonderwall anyway

Because my inside is outside
My right side's on the left side
'Cos I'm writing to reach you
But I might never reach you
I long to teach you about you
But that's not you
Do you know it's true
And that won't do
You know it's you
I'm talking to

My Eyes

Deep in my heart, there's no room for crying,
but I'm trying to see your point of view
Deep in my heart, I'm afraid of dying,
I'd be lying if I said I'm not

Welcome in, welcome in,
Shame about the weather
Welcome in, welcome in,
It will come
It's a sin, it's a sin,
Where birds of a feather, are welcome to, land on you

[CHORUS]
Ya Ya Ya *2
You've got my eyes
We can see, what you'll be, you can't disguise
And either way, I will pray, you will be wise
Pretty soon you will see the tears in my eyes..

As each day goes by, it makes way for another,
We discover that we're not alone
And each day we try, the best we can to recover,
All the feelings that we left below

Welcome in, welcome in,
Shame about the weather
Welcome in, welcome in,
You will come
It's a sin, it's a sin,
Where birds of a feather, are welcome to, land on you

[CHORUS]
Ya Ya Ya *2
You've got my eyes
We can see, what you'll be, you can't disguise
And either way, I will pray, you will be wise
Pretty soon you will see the tears in my eyes..

Welcome in, welcome in,
Shame about the weather
Welcome in, welcome in,
You will come
It's a sin, it's a sin,
Where birds of a feather, are welcome to, land on you...

[CHORUS]
Ya Ya Ya *2
You've got my eyes
We can see, what you'll be, you can't disguise
And either way, I will pray, you will be wise
Pretty soon you will see the tears in my eyes..

3 Times And You Lose

I had a nightmare
I lived in a little town
where little dreams were broken
and words were seldom spoken

I tried to reach you
but all the lines were down
Summer rain began to fall
on this little town
...on this little town

The little people
have very little left to say
their words had all been shortened
they didn't really seem important

And I had a feeling
that you were very far away
but a little voice inside me said
you'll never get away from here

And it's 1, 2,
3 Times and you lose
of course it doesn't matter how you say it
I'm out of love
so there's nothing really more to say
I'm throwing it all away

And we had a peeling
but now we all faked to see
we never look at one another
only when another suffered

And if I saw you
then it was just another face
but I still don't blank horizon
lining on the human race

And it's 1, 2,
3 Times and you lose
of course it doesn't matter how you say it
I'm out of luck
so there's nothing really more to say
I'm throwing it all away

And it's 1, 2,
3 Times and you lose
I'm out of love
so there's nothing really more to say
I'm throwing it all away
throwing it all away
throwing it all away

Something Anything

Like a melody that is impossible to play, I wait
In my memory there's a part of you that's gone away, yeah
To keep my mind from wondering
I'm wondering
to keep myself on falling in
I'm following

Something Anything just to keep believing
Just to keep on breathing for a moment longer
Something Anything just to keep believing
Just to keep on breathing for a moment longer

I'd tell you anything if i had anything to say, yeah
i keep it bottled in 'cause there's a time and there's a place for this, yeah
i keep my story where it is
an act as if
I don't even know what it is
when all i need is

Something Anything just to keep believing
Just to keep on breathing for a moment longer
Something Anything just to keep believing
Just to keep on breathing for a moment longer


Something Anything just to keep believing
Just to keep on breathing for a moment longer
Something Anything just to keep believing
Just to keep on breathing for a moment longer

Monkey Wrench

What have we done with innocence
It disappeared with time, it never made much sense
Adolescent resident
Wasting another night on planning my revenge

One in ten

Dont want to be your monkey wrench
One more indecent accident
Id rather leave than suffer this
Ill never be your monkey wrench

All this time to make amends
What do you do when all your enemies are friend
Now and then Ill try to bend
Under pressure wind up snapping in the end

One in ten

Dont want to be your monkey wrench
One more indecent accident
Id rather leave than suffer this
Ill never be your monkey wrench

One last thing before I quit
I never wanted any more than I could fit
Into my head I still remember every single word
You said and all the shit that somehow came along with it
Still theres one thing that comforts me since I was
Always caged and now Im free

Dont want to be your monkey wrench
One more indecent accident
Id rather leave than suffer this
Ill never be your monkey wrench

Dont want to be your monkey wrench (fall in, fall out)
Dont want to be your monkey wrench (fall in, fall out)
Dont want to be your monkey wrench (fall in, fall out)

Teruskanlah

Pernahkah kau bicara Tapi tak didengar
Tak dianggap sama sekali…
Pernahkah kau tak salah Tapi disalahkan
Tak diberi Kesempatan
reff:
Kuhidup dengan siapa
Ku tak tau kau siapa
Kau kekasihku tapi
Orang lain bagiku

Kau dengan dirimu saja
Kau dengan duniamu saja
Teruskanlah… teruskanlah
Kau begitu

Kau tak butuh diriku
Aku patung bagimu
Cinta buta
Kebutuhan mu

Back to reff:

Hoo.. hooo

Kau dengan dirimu saja
Kau dengan duniamu saja
Teruskanlah… Teruskanlah
Kau.. kau begitu

Teruskanlah… teruskanlah..

Matahariku

tertutup sudah pintu, pintu hatiku
yang pernah dibuka waktu, hanya untukmu
kini kau pergi dari hidupku
ku harus relakanmu walau aku tak mau


* berjuta warna pelangi di dalam hati
sejenak luluh bergeming menjauh pergi
tak ada lagi cahaya suci
semua nada beranjak, aku terdiam sepi

** dengarlah matahariku suara tangisanku
ku bersedih karna panah cinta menusuk jantungku
ucapkan matahariku puisi tentang hidupku
tentangku yang tak mampu melakukan waktu

repeat *

dengarkanlah kau matahariku

dengarlah matahariku suara tangisanku
ku bersedih karna panah cinta menusuk jantungku

repeat **

I'm yours

Well you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but you're so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks
and now I'm trying to get back
Before the cool done run out
I'll be giving it my best test
Nothing's going to stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it's again my turn to win some or learn some

I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm yours

Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find love love love
Listen to the music of the moment maybe sing with me
A lá peaceful melody
It's your God-forsaken right to be loved love loved love loved

So I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I'm sure
There's no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours

I've been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer
My breath fogged up the glass
And so I drew a new face and laughed
I guess what I'ma saying is there ain't no better reason
To rid yourself of vanity and just go with the seasons
It's what we aim to do
Our name is our virtue

I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I'm sure
There's no need to complicate
Our time is short
this is our fate, I'm yours

Well no no, well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find the sky is yours
Listen to the music of the moment come and dance with me
A lá one big family (2nd time: A lá happy family; 3rd time: A lá peaceful melody)
It's your God-forsaken right to be loved love love love

I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm sure
There's no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours

No please, don't complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours

No please, don't hesitate
no more, no more
It cannot wait
the sky is yours!

bones

Come with me.

We took a back road.
We're gonna look at the stars.
We took a backroad in my car.
Down to the ocean,
it’s only water and sand
And in the ocean we'll hold hands.

But I don't really like you, apologetically dressed in the best, but on a heartbeat glide.

Without an answer, the thunder speaks for the sky, and on the cold, wet dirt I cry.
And on the cold, wet dirt I cry.

Don’t you wanna come with me? Don’t you wanna feel my bones
on your bones?
It's only natural.

A cinematic vision ensued
like the holiest dream.
It's someone's calling?
An angel whispers my name,
but the message relayed is the same:
“Wait till tomorrow,
you'll be fine."
But it's gone to the dogs in my mind.
I always hear them
when the dead of night
comes calling to save me from this fight.
But they can never wrong this right.

Don't you wanna come with me? Don't you wanna feel my bones
on your bones?
It's only natural.
Don’t you wanna swim with me? Don’t you wanna feel my skin
on your skin?
It's only natural.

(Never had a lover)
I never had a lover
(Never had soul)
I never had soul
(Never had a good time)
And I never had a good time
(Never got cold)
I never got gold.

Don't you wanna come with me? Don't you wanna feel my bones
on your bones?
It's only natural.
Don't you wanna swim with me? Don't you wanna feel my skin
on your skin?
It's only natural.
Don't you wanna come with me? Don't you wanna feel my bones
on your bones?
It’s only natural.
Come and take a swim with me. Don't you wanna feel my skin
on your skin?
It’s only natural

walking after you

Tonight Im tangled in my blanket of clouds
Dreaming aloud
Things just wont do without you, matter of fact
Im on your back, Im on your back, Im on your back

If you walk out on me, Im walking after you
If you walk out on me, Im walking after you

If youd accept surrender, Ill give up some more
Werent you adored
I cannot be without you, matter of fact
Im on your back, Im on your back, Im on your back

If you walk out on me, Im walking after you
If you walk out on me, Im walking after you

Another heart is cracked in two, Im on your back

I cannot be without you, matter of fact
Im on your back, Im on your back, Im on your back

If you walk out on me, Im walking after you
If you walk out on me, Im walking after you
If you walk out on me, Im walking after you

Another heart is cracked in two, Im on your back

suicidal dreams

I dream about, how its going to end,
Approaching me quickly,
Leaving a life of fear,
I only want my mind to be clear,
People, making fun of me,
For no reason but jealousy,
I fantasise about my death,
Ill kill myself from holding my breath,

My suicidal dream,
Voices telling me what to do,
My suicidal dream,
Im sure you will get yours too,

Help me, comfort me,
Stop me from feeling what Im feeling now,
The rope is here,
Now Ill find a use,
Ill kill myself,
Ill put my head in a noose,

My suicidal dream,
Voices telling me what to do,
My suicidal dream,
Im sure you will get yours too,

Dreamin about my death, dream,
Suicidal, suicidal, suicidal dream,
Im suicidal,
Suicidal dream,

sweetest things

My love she throws me like a rubber ball
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
She wont catch me or break my fall
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Babys got blue skies up ahead
But in this Im a rain cloud
You know she likes a dry kind of love
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

Im losing you
Hey hey hey, Im losing you yeah
Aint love the sweetest thing

I wanted to run but she made me crawl
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Eternal fire, she turned me to straw
Oh oh, the sweetest thing
You know I got black eyes
But they burn so brightly for her
Mine is a blind kind of love
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

Im losing you
Oh oh oh, Im losing you yeah
Aint love the sweetest thing
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Oh oh, yeah

Blue-eyed boy and this brown-eyed girl
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
You can sew it up but you still see the tear
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Babys got blue skies up ahead
And in this Im a rain cloud
You know we got a stormy kind of love
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Oh oh, the sweetest thing
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

Ana's Song (Open Fire)

Please die, Ana
For as long as you're here, We're not
You make the sound of laughter
And sharpened nails seem softer
And I need you now, somehow
And I need you now, somehow

Open fire
On my needs designed
On my knees for you
Open fire
On my knees desires
What I need from you

Imagine pageant
In my head
The flesh seems thicker
Sandpaper tears corrode the film
And I need you now, somehow
And I need you now, somehow

Open fire
On my needs designed
On my knees for you
Open fire
On my knees desires
What I need from you

And you're my obsession
I love you to the bones
And Ana wrecks your life
Like an anorexia life

Open fire
On my needs designed
On my knees for you
Open fire
On my knees desires
What I need from you

Open fire
On my knees desire

Open fire
On my needs designed
On my knees for you

Miss you love

Millionaire say
Got a big shot deal
And thrown it all away but
But Im not too sure
How Im supposed to feel
Or what Im supposed to say

But Im not, not sure,
Not too sure how it feels
To handle every day
And I miss you love

Make room for the prey
cause Im coming in
With what I wanna say but
Its gonna hurt
And I love the pain
A breeding ground for hate but...

Im not, not sure,
Not too sure how it feels
To handle everyday
Like the one that just past
In the crowds of all the people

Remember today
Ive no respect for you
And I miss you love
And I miss use love

I love the way you love
But I hate the way
Im supposed to love you back

Its just a fad
Part of the teenage angst brigade and
Im not, not sure,
Not too sure how it feels
To handle everyday
Like the one that just past
In the crowds of all the people

Remember today
Ive no respect for you
And I miss you love
And I miss use love

Remember two days
Ive no respect for you
And I miss you love
And I miss use love

I love the way you love
But I hate the way
Im supposed to love you back

The Graetest View

Youre the analyst
The fungus in my milk
When you want no one
And you've got someone

Through the wind you crawl
And laugh at burning dunes
When no one else will ever see

Now that you know why you feel like you do
Their turning their head
Whilst they wait for no one
And finally i know
Why you feel like letting go

Im watching you watch over me
and i've got the greatest view from here
im watching you watch over me
and i've got the greatest view from here


copyright 2001 Daniel Johns
mistakes dont mean a thing
if you dont regret them
so pack your tactic toes for the winter
chain a waterfall to burned and withered skin
no one else will ever see

Im watching you watch over me
and i've got the greatest view from here
im watching you watch over me
and i've got the greatest view from here


Now that you know why you feel like you do
They're turning their head
whilst they wait For no one
And finally I know why I feel like you're letting go

I'm watching you watch
Over me and I've got
The greatest view from here
I'm watching you watch
Over me and I've got
The greatest view from here
The greatest view from here
The greatest view

Reflections Of A Sound

In the sun we are found to be
Reflections of a sound

I know it's been far too long in stormy weather
My arrested hope won't choke forever
Like a memory I needed never

We walk wrapped in thought
Some are vacant some have grown too short
It's the only thing I've ever had that keeps me lonely

In the sun we are found to be
Reflections of a sound
When nobody is around

Come down from the waist of time
Feel so empty when I feel so fine
Starting over we could change this light shadow sober

I've been waiting for far too long
Let's stick together
Coz you're keeping me warm but it's a lonely setting sun

I wait so long now my head is full of pressure
I need time to cure my mind
It's like a loop that lasts forever

I've been waiting for far too long
Let's stick together
Coz you're keeping me warm but it's a lonely setting sun

In the sun we are found to be
Reflections of a sound
For nobody

Waiting All Day

I took advantage
Of a straight believing town
That tore the bandage
And said look who's bleeding now
Are you listening or are you faithless like the others
Long days are almost here
Faded signs for you

I'll be waiting all day
I've be waiting all year
For you it's true
He's been beaten
Might have brought it on himself
So he stopped reading
Every book on mental health
But alls not lost in this tangle like no other

Long days are almost here
Faded signs for you
I'll be waiting all day
I've be waiting all year
For you it's true

Take this dose and go
Whiskey warm September
The faded sign will show
That he still remembers

Long days are almost here
Faded signs for you
I'll be waiting all day
I've be waiting all year
For you it's true

Waiting all day
Waiting all year

I'll be waiting all day
I'll be waiting all year
