Mari menjadi jomblo
Karena kita belum dewasa
Karena kita masih memandang cinta sebagai alat
Cinta sebagai alat memuaskan
Untuk segala tujuan.
Mari menjadi jomblo
Karena kita masih bego
Bego terhadap cinta
dan bego untuk cinta
Karena kita masih terlalu rendah
Karena kita belum menginjak tanah cinta sesungguhnya.
Mari menjadi jomblo
Mari berhenti sejenak
Mari berpikir sejenak
Mari merenung sejenak
Untuk apa terjatuh ke dalam cinta?
Untuk apa cinta?
Untuk apa menjalani cinta?
Siapkah menjalani cinta?
CINTA ITU APA?

"You"
You are a beauty
and you won't grow
Everyday I will see you
Everyday I will miss you
You are a friend and,
I want you to be my friend
Since we always meet in the same hallway
In the same hour, every lunch break and,
every busy hour.
You stand still.
If I could
I would dance with you
If I could
I would hold you
If I could
I would kiss you
If I could
I would love you.
You, who bear no name,
You goddamn picture in a frame.
and you won't grow
Everyday I will see you
Everyday I will miss you

You, who bear no name,

Thank you
Thank you God for making me a star
Thank you God, for making me a mockery
Thank you God, for taking my soul away some time in the future
and store it somewhere.

Heart
It's sad to see you now,
a pathetic living thing.
you cannot feel
you cannot taste
you won't eat
you won't sleep
you cannot cry
you cannot smile
you failed to exist
you cannot understand anything
your world is blue.
I'm sorry,
I'm the one who stole your heart from you.

...
"put my eyes back, I need it."
"No you don't need it, you are a fool."
"Put my eyes back, I need it, I can't see."
"No you don't, you are a fool and you seldom see."
"Put my eyes back god-damn it, I can't see you."
"Fuck you. You broke your promise."
"No you don't need it, you are a fool."
"Put my eyes back, I need it, I can't see."
"No you don't, you are a fool and you seldom see."
"Put my eyes back god-damn it, I can't see you."
"Fuck you. You broke your promise."
To the Lost Ones
We will miss you

We'll be missing you
We'll be missing you
You're so special.
We love you.

Watching
You are watching
You are being watched
You are enjoying
You are being disturbed
You are seeing
You are being blindfolded
Now, let us take a look
"Oh, what a rating! Make them watch!
Make them watch watch watch!"
You are watching
You are under others' control
You are watching
You lose it all.

Lust lust lust
Now you're naked
and I see you while smiling
Now you are used
You are a tool
You satisfy
The lustful blood that doesn't have
A head or eyes.

I will fade, just try me
I will fall, just push me
I will be unknown, just forget me
But through it all, still,
I will be ME.

Layar kaca
di layar kaca
ada Raja Kera
bersama Kapten Lee
mereka memainkan gitar.
Di bawahnya, ada yang berkomentar.
Dan tak seharusnya aku melihat komentar.
Kapten Lee dan Raja Kera memainkan gitar
Aku tersadar.
Kapten Lee tidak disukai Raja Kera
terlihat dari petikannya Raja Kera
Lalu aku klik tombol "pause".
dan membiarkan layar kaca buyar.

Ketika kembali ke saat itu
Saat itu 11 juni
aku flu
tapi aku bahagia
saat itu 11 juni
bukan 12 juni
ketika aku berbalas
kata dengan
layar kaca..
Kalau cinta itu Tuhan
maka aku telah berdosa kepadanya.
Orang yang mengkhianati tuhan adalah musyrik
dan pada 11 juni,
dan setelahnya,
aku semakin yakin kalau aku ini telah musyrik
tidak seharusnya membuat cinta menjadi dua
Kalau cinta itu Tuhan
maka cinta seharusnya esa
dan bagi yang menduakan
akan menanggung pahitnya karma.
dan aku sedang mengalaminya.
Mengalami yang seharusnya hanya kutanggung satu
kini terpecah jadi dua.
bingung sudah.
Saat itu 11 juni
aku sedang flu
saat inipun aku masih flu.
11 juni jadi saksi bisu yang melepas sumbat dari dalam tenggorokannya
merobek perekat pekat yang membuat buta matanya.
Ia menunjuk.
Saat itu 11 juni.
aku dan layar kaca bertukar kata.
dan aku terlalu bangga
mungkin karena pengaruh obat flu
atau apapun itu.
tanpa alasan apapun,
cinta semestinya esa, semestinya satu.
sekarang aku masih flu.
dan kalau kamu mau tau
layar kaca itu
layar kaca itu
mau tau
aku masih flu
dan Vitamin C mungkin akan

It's real and already happened
Not going to make a pathetic, meaningless post this time. This time I want to express what I feel toward THIS THING that was a part of my childhood and part of all music enthusiasts, and that is cassettes.
To begin with, I took interest on music release in the form of a magnetic sheets, rolled inside a squarish containment, a cassette when I was a 5 or 6 grader. I don't want to make myself as if i were a more mature child among my friends at that time because I still made myself out of boredom with plastic and metallic toys. I can be said as "weird" at that time in terms of my music preferences. While everyone was so hyped listening and praising Peterpan, Ada band, Padi, Sheila on 7 and such, I was, mostly, listening to artists other than that, Foreign artists. Again, I'm not making myself as if I were "above" everyone but that's the truth. Of course I listened to Base Jam, also Peterpan, also Sheila on 7, and others because in the past they still released good musics, compared to nowadays. But, I really remembered I (quite) listened to non-domestic artists a lot.
I believe my first encounter of non-domestic music that made me love them has to be the responsibility of Coldplay's "Clocks". Before "Clocks" I had known and listened their "In My Place", but at that time I don't like it. Unfortunately, the media I listened to the track was not a legal media. It was a CD burned with music tracks. I also remembered that I also love the tracks besides "Clocks" that was included in the CD, and they are: Aqua (if i'm not mistaken) "Turn Back Time", (I forgot who the artist is) "Juxtaposed With You", and others. I was so in love with "Clocks" that when Coldplay released their third album "X & Y" I also recorded "Clocks" into the cassette that contained the whole album's tracks, making (as if) it a bonus track. Since then, "Clocks" is one of many tracks that I still listen to until now, along with the band's "X & Y".
Finished with coldplay I found out that The Killers' debut album "Hot Fuss" and Robbie Williams "Intensive Care" sound astounding. Hot Fuss, for me, without a doubt, is the band's best release so far. As for "Intensive Care", I can't say much about it since I am not yet listening to Robbie Williams' releases other than that, but I think it's one of good releases of Williams.
Time flies and music, along with its industry, progressed. I was so surprised to know that all this time I had been blindfolded by music in its digital form, the mp3 file and others. Blindfolded? well of course it is, I was. For I never have the thought that the one that constructed my past, one of the parts of it, are getting and even already disappeared. That is, the cassette. Well, it doesn't mean that I'm not grateful or happy with mp3s, I'm glad it was invented, I am, because without such progress and invention I wouldn't be able to listen to music anytime and anywhere and I guess progression, on whatever it is, brought goodness and badness.
The extinction of cassettes is one of the badness of digital music form invention. But then, of course, why? Cassette is so yesterday, it's not reliable, it's quite troublesome, why am I still sad for it? I guess it's because the concept (or whatever anyone would call it) of "energy" one of my docents introduced me to it.
This "energy", more or less, is the way things are used to be according to my comprehension of the concept. The way things are used to be includes: the way it works, the way we use it, the way it gives peculiar experience to us, the way it became a part of us. It's so hard to know the good old cassettes had gone, and it's so hard to explain why it is so hard to let go of it. I believe, as I had mentioned it before, the way it became a part of us plays a good role. There are melancholic persons, but I guess everyone in general loves to reminisce, to remember their past just because the past had become so exotic, so peculiar because we had left it, moved on from it too far to where we are now. The part of us we lost of means that we will never taste, feel, or see it again anymore. It would be hard for us to experience our own past again without the means that helps us come back to it again, and all reasons I have made I consider them as the answer why it's so hard to let one part of our past, our memory go and why the cassette is very important, memory wise.
Nonetheless the reasons, the blabbering I have made, there are no reason to stuck still in the past, we got to move on. It's sad but it's also a thing to be proud of, knowing the almost (or already) extinct audio cassettes. Because, and I mean.. look at them vinyls! They were the ones who got extinct first before audio cassettes, and look at them now, becoming one of special releases form when an artist releases a new material to the public. Them gramophones still exists, though the authentic, the ones coming from the golden age of gramophone, is still rare.
I believe, cassettes, sooner or later, will be treated the same too, judging the way artists treats vinyls nowadays, as well as radio-tape.
Cassettes may not existing in the way we used to know now, but nonetheless, some time later and somewhere we would find them cassettes again in their new level of existence and of public recognition.
