Sunday, July 24, 2011 Ini Aku

aku cuma wanita biasa

terkadang aku butuh perhatian

dan tapi terkadang, aku ingin orang lain mengacuhkanku

mungkin hanya butuh waktu menyendiri

dan sejujurnya

aku merasa lelah menjalani kehidupan yang seperti ini

yang terlalu banyak duka

menangis, sedih, marah, dan galau

saya terkadang merasa sendiri

ketika masalah muncul

aku merasa orang-orang meninggalkanku

mengacuhkanku

dan aku merasa frustasi

dan putus asa dalam menjalani semuanya

aku terkadang egois

untuk mendapatkan sesuatu

aku mengorbankan kebahagiaanku sendiri

Sampai kapan begini? 

Tuesday, July 12, 2011 LENKA - live like you're dying

One of these days you’ll be
Under the covers you’ll be
Under the table and you’ll realize
All of your days are numbered;
All of them one to one hundred.
All of them millions.
All of them trillions.
So what are you gonna do with them all?
You can not trade them in for mall.
No no
Take every moment; you know that you own them.
It’s all you can do, use what’s been given to you.
Give me a reason
To fight the feeling
That there’s nothing here for me.
Cause none of it’s easy,
I know it wasn?t meant to be.
I know it’s all up to me
I know it’s all up to me
So what am I gonna do with my time?
Oh
I’ll take every moment, I know that I own them.
It’s all up to you to do whatever you choose.
Live like you’re dying and never stop trying.
It’s all you can do, use what’s been given to you.
All of the moments you didn?t notice;
Gone in the blink of an eye.
All of the feelings you couldn?t feel
No matter how you try.
Oh oh
Take every moment; you know that you own them.
It’s all you can do, use what’s been given to you.
Live like you’re dying and never stop trying.
It’s all you can do, use what’s been given to you.
Live like you’re dying and never stop trying.
It’s all you can do, use what’s been given to you.
Oh oh

Tuesday, July 12, 2011 LENKA - force of nature

You move
A little closer
You feel
The force of nature
We touch
And something charges
The air
You look into my eyes
And you
Can't look away
It's no surprise
I planned it
Out this way
And now I know

Ah, a-whoo
You're
Completely bewitched
Caught under my spell
Ah, a-whoo
Completely bewitched
Your body
Will tell you
What to do

It's sorcery the way
I draw you to me
So don't try
To struggle
You are captured
In my web
Just like
A voodoo doll
I make you move
'Cause I know
What I like
And I like you

Ah, a-whoo
You're
Completely bewitched
Caught under my spell
Ah, a-whoo
Completely bewitched
Your body
Will tell you
What to do

Ah, a-whoo
You're
Completely bewitched
Caught under my spell
Ah, a-whoo
Completely bewitched
Your body
Will tell you
What to do

Now close your eyes
And surrender
To the moment
Reach out your hand
And touch me
I am your gravity

Ah, a-whoo
You're
Completely bewitched
Caught under my spell
Ah, a-whoo
Completely bewitched
Your body
Will tell you
What to do

Tuesday, July 12, 2011 LENKA - like a song

I can't forget you when you're gone
Your like a song
That goes around in my head
And how I regret
It's been so long
Oh what went wrong
Could it be something I said
Time, make it go faster
Or just rewind
To back when I'm wrapped in your arms

Ahoooh

Dum da di da
Da da da dum
Da da da dum
Da da da dum da da di dum
Da di dum dum
Da da da dum
Da da da dum
Da da da dum la da da di da dum

All afternoon long
It's with me
The same song
You left a light on
Inside me
My love

I can Remember
The way that it felt
To be holding on to you

Da dum da da di dum
Ooh dum di dum

I can't forget you when you're gone
Your like a song
That goes around in my head
And how I regret
It's been so long
Oh what went wrong
Could it be something I said
Time, make it go faster
Or just rewind
To back when I'm wrapped in your arms

Time
Make it go faster
Or just decide
To come back to my happy heart.

Ahooh oh

Tuesday, July 12, 2011 LENKA - bring me down

So here we are again
Starin’ at the end
Of what we made and who we are.
Never knowin’ when
One of us will break apart
And walk the other way, love.
I don’t know what to say, love.
I don’t know how to stay
When you won’t let me be
The person that I am.

[Chorus:]
The writings on the wall.
There’s nothin’ to say anymore.
So I’ll leave before I fall apart
Right back into your arms.
The writings on the wall.
You gave nothin’ and I gave it at all.
But I want something better.
I won’t let this burden bring me down.

What are we to do?
What are we to say to one another
Now were through?
Thanks for bein’ you.
Thanks for bein’ all things
I had to say goodbye to.
I’m over bein’ lied to.
I’m over bein’ pushed into the person
That you want me to become.

[Chorus]

Oh, where did it go wrong?
We had it for so long.
But now there’s no point in turning back
Let’s face the fact

[Chorus]

I won’t let this burden bring me [x2]
I won’t let this burden bring me down.

Tuesday, July 12, 2011 LENKA - skipalong

So tired of feeling blue
Such a heavy weight on you
So shake it off and make your way to somewhere different
To somewhere different
Oh no now you're leaving me oh what will you do
All alone in the big bad world but I'm not worried, no

'Cause you're gonna skip along
Quite merrily baby, you're gonna revel in hating what's going on
And you're like a sugar bomb
And no harm will come
No harm will come if you just skip along

Acting oblivious
Comes natural to us
Keep smiling knowing all the while the world will fall apart
The world will fall apart

So we're gonna skip along
Quite merrily baby we're gonna revel in hating what's going on
Yeah you're like a sugar bomb
And no harm will come
No harm will come if you just skip along

Wouldn't it be lovely to be home home
Safe and sound with no one round to bring us down but that's so far away

So I'm gonna skip along
Quite merrily baby, I'm gonna revel in hating what's going on
Yeah I'm like a sugar bomb
And no harm will come
No harm will come if I just skip along
Just skip along
Quite merrily

Tuesday, July 12, 2011 LENKA - dangerous and sweet

It's difficult to see from the surface.
But everything goes in and it stings,
Like a spider.
Hits you deep inside and

Ref.
I know that you are just like me, oversensitive.
Well I ordinarily breathe.
Taking everything for much more than it means.
Well it's dangerous, and it's sweet.
Cut us and we bleed.

All these words that we speak casually.
Well maybe I'm just weak, but it hurts me.
Everything you said x3
Well it cuts, like a knife
It hurts me deep inside and

I should put on my armor the next time I see you
So I won't be harmed. I know I can shoot my own arrows.
I'm sorry I hurt you.
I know that like me you can be oversensitive.

Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba
Ba da Ba Ba Ba
Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba
Ba da Ba Ba Ba

Chorus

Yeah it's dangerous and sweet.
Don't you know it's dangerous and it's sweet?
Cut us and we bleed.
