come on little moon
come down
don't let me sleep alone
rest your soul beside me
please be my one-night-remedy
fix my pain and sorrow
then just leave me tomorrow

debu di kaca berbingkai kayu

           rapuh

buat rayap tak berselera makan

buatnya tak berselera mengintai wanita

           sunyi di pekarangan berpagar besi

                       mendung

           buat ia tak berselera bermain

           buat ia terdiam di rumah seharian

di tingkap pandangnya wanita kecil bermain tawa

di tingkap rancangnya pikiran abu akan wanita usia fajar

di tingkap ia pandang luapan dahaga pada satu raga

           sepi di pekarangan berhias rumput

                       pulang

           ayah datang bawa bidan

kau masih melukiskan jingga di kepala

bertanya pada sudut jalan yang tak pernah sepi

           “seperti apa senja di kota?”

ya seperti ini

tak dingin oleh kabut

tak terasa oleh waktu

kau akan sibuk menyeberang jalan

sebelahmu akan mati kejang – kejang

dan mereka masih akan meliput gedung

metromini memainkan dendang dengan kencang

selagi pengamen berteriak minta makan

           “dan kamu?”

mataku ini akan merah berair

           “kenapa?”

apa beda aku dengan senja di kota?

jangan amuk datang di sela hening, hujan
resah masih melaut di tengah jalan
jangan angin bisikkan hina, hujan
pijak hawa kenyang makan terpaan
burung tak bisa terbang jadi makanan hewan
atap masjid berhamburan masih kumandang azan
jangan rintik sendiri di atas pasang
cari sampai gersang tak dapat sayang
deras tepi jalan teduh sendiri
linang sampai malam ditinggal mati

Will you please break me free of these memories?
You were once a friend, but now you're just a bitter enemy.
We're two strangers that know each others secrets.
If you said you still love me, I wouldn't believe it.

And I've been standing in the rain for far too long.
My body has become weak, and my mind less strong.
I’m broken into pieces, from the hammer you grip.
Though I’ll still let the phrase "I miss you" slip through my lips.

I want the good memories gone
And the bad ones to stay.
So I never come back to you
I wanna remain far away.

Because you're an illusionist,
Who has mastered hypnosis,
You have many tricks up your sleeves
Along with dead roses.

oh please hear me dear Eros
oh why are you so far away
my soul is getting hot and hotter
fire inside me is controlling
oh i need love, Eros
i need to be loved
anger is all over my heart
destroying every pieces of me
i don't want to turn into an unloved dust

i'd be glad to leave this earth
and touch Saturn
i'd be glad to say goodbye to every human's emotions
and just go with the wave
if i was autumn i'd go on the first day of September
