There is someone I always look up to Not a prophet, not a prominent historical figure, nor a philosopher But a friend It is always so amazing To witness the patience, tenacity, and depth of faith of that person Once, I thought that I caught up Then I sent myself down into the abyss That I still struggle to defeat I look up, but I do the opposite First, I lose my patience Then, I become depressed And now, I am an apostate I look back And realize how peaceful, full of happiness the past is Where I could just look up, and did my best The further I look back The brighter nostalgia seems to be Like the big bang And now as I am heading towards heat death I could only hope to radiate a glimmer Of whatever left of myself If the universe could feel anything Would it feel the way I feel? Nonsense In this chaotic, uncertain era As if it has never been chaotic and uncertain Of course entropy keeps increasing Because existence is due to increasing entropy We are all children of the universe Isn't it fitting that our phenomena is so fleeting Seeing ourselves is just as magnificent as seeing supernovae Each of us is a way the universe experiencing itself And we are the feedback loop The universe is our master, is it? And its laws are set, aren't they? Who cares about the universe and its laws and what it wants I know what I want I want to be closer to the person I look up to The only way is the way forward Out of the abyss But I am not worried too much Because we are all going to the same direction No matter how wrong each our path is We will return to our master And perhaps be reborn My friend, who is far away I am grateful to have known you As the beacon of my life I have no regrets If I have the depth of your faith And conviction as great as yours I wish one and only one thing To be reunited with you Even if I have to wait for eternity Eternity is not infinity There is no such thing as infinity I believe

seandainya 02:27
Mungkinkah ini hanyalah mimpi? Mengapa ku selalu begini? Asaku mulai merapuh Anganku 'tuk pergi jauh Mereka tidak akan pernah bisa memahamiku Diriku lunglai tak berdaya, Tak tahu arah kemana Berserah pun entah harus ke siapa Seandainya. Mungkinkah ini hanyalah mimpi? Mengapa ku selalu begini? Haruskah Aku berhenti menanti pagi Setelah malam berjanji untuk mengerti? Dan pagi kembali terasa sunyi Haruskah Aku berhenti menanti pagi Setelah malam berjanji untuk mengerti? Dan pagi kembali menjadi tak pasti

sementara 03:31
Ayo kita pergi Berjalan jalan entah mau kemana Bersamamu segala terasanya indah Biarlah kita hidup bahagia Walaupun ini hanya untuk sementara Bersama kita pergi Kemanapun yang jauh dari sini Kau bercerita tentang mimpi tadi pagi Apakah Dia masih menghantui harimu? Hidup ini hanya sekali Mengapa ita harus peduli akan hal sepele yang masih merisai diri Marilah kita pergi dari ini Berjalan jalan entah mau kemana Bersamamu segala terasanya indah Biarlah kita hidup bahagia Walaupun ini hanya untuk sementara Bersama kita pergi Kemanapun asalkan kita hepi Esok urusan nanti Kita hidup sekarang ini Marilah kita menikmati hari Berjalan jalan entah mau kemana Bersamamu segala terasanya indah Biarlah kita hidup bahagia Walaupun ini hanya untuk sementara Sementara

[Verse 1] I don't wanna be alone tonight Cause I only can think about You You can try to stay with me for now We can chillin' and stuffs, so how? Nobody can tell us anything to do I don't care as long as I'm with You But when the night turns to dawn I know You'll be long gone [Spoken Words] I don't think I can sing anymore (Just play the fucking song!) [Instrumental] You'll be long gone [Instrumental]

日本人は季節の歌をよく書いてる 私は雨季のことしか書けない 雨季の時に一緒にいたから 君は夏のようにあたたかく ぼくは秋のようにメランコリック ぼくたちは違ったけど、どうにかつながっていた ぼくたちは雨季の時に楽しくすごしていた 雨季の時に一緒にいたから 天気をあやつりたい、雨の日の瞬間を思い出すよう それをできれば、君にまた会えるかも 君がいないと、ぼくは楽しく過ごせるのかな? 雨季の時に一緒にいたから 日本人は季節の歌をよく書いてる 一所懸命書いたけど、結局君のこと書いちゃった

Life Goes On 02:09
Life goes on I'm growing tired of hearing them say that I'm still haunted by the last chat Many months my feelings went fall flat Nights by nights i drink them pills, just a tat I thought those pills were supposed to make me feel alright but why I just want to let myself free from the tallest heights Seeing all grey no white A year went by But all this is by the bye I published the ep but still not satisfied Everybody turn a blind eye until nothing's left except for a cry My shrink said I need to let go But for real tho, do I need to follow Van Gogh? But nah, I still have things to do While I fill my lungs with more tobacco Life goes on I guess what Kareem said is true. Past don't matter put your future on hold Fucking tired of sadness trying to enfold Shit I need to keep my head, keep ahold Wait Am I on my absolute threshold? Fuck it, life goes on

(Verse 1) There are loved ones in the glory Whose dear forms you often miss When you close your earthly story Will you join them in their bliss? (Chorus) Will the Circle be unbroken By and by, by and by Is a better home awaiting In the sky, in the sky (Verse 2) In the joyous days of childhood Oft they told of wondrous love Pointed to the dying saviour, Now they dwell with him above, (Chorus) Will the Circle be unbroken By and by, by and by Is a better home awaiting In the sky, in the sky (Verse 3) You remember songs of Heaven Which you sing with childish voice Do you love the hymns they taught you Or are songs of Earth your choice (Chorus) Will the Circle be unbroken By and by, by and by Is a better home awaiting In the sky, in the sky (Verse 4) You can picture happy gatherings 'Round the fireside long ago And you think of tearful partings when they left you here below (Chorus) Will the Circle be unbroken By and by, by and by Is a better home awaiting In the sky, in the sky (Verse 5) One by one their seats were emptied. And one by one they went away Now the family is parted Will it be complete one day? (Chorus) Will the Circle be unbroken By and by, by and by Is a better home awaiting In the sky, in the sky

I just hope You'll remember me with this new year song Days gone by and I lost my sense of right and wrong But I must stay strong I smile because I know one day that the death will be on my doorway but hey, that's okay because we'll meet again anyway
