Paradise (Not For Me)

I can’t remember
When I was young
I can’t explain
If it was wrong

My life goes on
But not the same
Into your eyes
My face remains

I’ve been so high
I’ve been so down
Up to the skies
Down to the ground

I was so blind
I could not see
Your paradise
Is not for me

I’ve been so high
I’ve been so down
Up to the skies
Down to the ground

All around me
I could not see
Who are the angels
Surely not me

Once more again
I am broken
Once more again
I don’t believe it

I’ve been so high
I’ve been so down
Up to the skies
Down to the ground

There is a light
Above my head
Into your eyes
My face remains

I’ve been so high
I’ve been so down
Up to the skies
Down to the ground

I can’t remember
When I was young
Into your eyes
My face remains

I’ve been so high
I’ve been so down
Up to the skies
Down to the ground

the spirit carries on

baru saja mendengarkan lagu bagus

Where did we come from?
Why are we here?
Where do we go when we die?
What lies beyond
And what lay before?
Is anything certain in life?

They say, life is too short,
The here and the now
And you’re only given one shot
But could there be more,
Have I lived before,
Or could this be all that we’ve got?

If I die tomorrow
I’d be alright
Because I believe
That after we’re gone
The spirit carries on

I used to be frightened of dying
I used to think death was the end
But that was before
I’m not scared anymore
I know that my soul will transcend

I may never find all the answers
I may never understand why
I may never prove
What I know to be true
But I know that I still have to try

If I die tomorrow
I’d be alright
Because I believe
That after we’re gone
The spirit carries on

Move on, be brave
Don’t weep at my grave
Because I am no longer here
But please never let
Your memory of me disappear

Safe in the light that surrounds me
Free of the fear and the pain
My questioning mind
Has helped me to find
The meaning in my life again
Victoria’s real
I finally feel
At peace with the girl in my dreams
And now that I’m here
It’s perfectly clear
I found out what all of this means

If I die tomorrow
I’d be alright
Because I believe
That after we’re gone
The spirit carries on

Boulevard Of Broken Dreams

I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don’t know where it goes
But it’s home to me and I walk alone

I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Where the city sleeps
and I’m the only one and I walk alone

I walk alone
I walk alone

I walk alone
I walk a…

My shadow’s the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart’s the only thing that’s beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
‘Til then I walk alone

Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Aaah-ah,
Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah

I’m walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind
On the border line
Of the edge and where I walk alone

Read between the lines
What’s fucked up and everything’s alright
Check my vital signs
To know I’m still alive and I walk alone

I walk alone
I walk alone

I walk alone
I walk a…

My shadow’s the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart’s the only thing that’s beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
‘Til then I walk alone

Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Aaah-ah
Ah-ah, Ah-ah

I walk alone
I walk a…

I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I’m the only one and I walk a…

My shadow’s the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart’s the only thing that’s beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
‘Til then I walk alone…

sithik eding

karena kamera untuk sementara berpindah tangan alias disilih kontjo, maka posting lagunya genk kobra saja

le.. le… ojo sok dho murko, alah sithik sithik ora sah di oyo
le.. le… dho podho mreneo, ojo minggrang minggring besuk dadi opo
dadi siji mesti mulyo, dumdumane mestine dibagi roto
yen ra dadi ojo gelo, ora ilok yen ora podho rumongso

hey.. hey… kau mau kemana, disini saja bersama sama
hey kau, apa sudah gila, sendiri sendiri mau jadi apa
jadi satu pasti jaya, tercerai berai artinya bencana
ada hasil dibagi rata, dikit dikit asalkan senang semua

mukti siji… mukti kabeh…
sing legowo… semeleh…
bubar satu… bubar semua…
percuma… akhirnya…

one of us

if god had a name, what would it be?
and would you call it to his face
if you were faced with him in all his glory?
what would you ask if you had just one question?

[refrain:]
yeah, yeah, god is great
yeah, yeah, god is good
yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah

what if god was one of us?
just a slob like one of us?
just a stranger on a bus
trying to make his way home
[:refrain]

if god had a face, what would it look like?
and would you want to see
if seeing meant that you would have to believe
in things like heaven and in jesus
and the saints and all the prophets

[refrain]
back up to heaven all alone.
nobody callin’ on the phone
‘cept for the pope maybe in rome.

[refrain]
like a holy rolling stone.
back up to heaven all alone
just tryin’ to make his way home
nobody callin’ on the phone
‘cept for the pope maybe in rome.
