Water Song<br />
Song/Lyric: Dee Lestari<br />
Icy cold, that’s how they see<br />
I’m hiding my crying<br />
Freedom <strong>of</strong> fire is not what I meant to be<br />
Not till you came and dived in me<br />
Will you hold on?<br />
Hold it on…<br />
And how I flow was meant to be<br />
The light <strong>of</strong> my halo<br />
See how it shines whenever I’m dying to be<br />
A feather <strong>of</strong> arrow<br />
Fly by, high<br />
Will you hold on?<br />
Hold it…<br />
Only water would wash my soul<br />
And the water could sing my song<br />
But it’s you that I’ll keep inside<br />
So stay beside<br />
A spark <strong>of</strong> my spotlight will brighten your way<br />
Makes it crystal and clear<br />
The feeling you feel<br />
Freedom <strong>of</strong> fire is now what I meant to be<br />
So watch how I’m burning<br />
Deep and alive<br />
Will you hold on?<br />
Hold it on…<br />
Only water…<br />
Only water would wash my soul<br />
Only water could sing my song<br />
But it’s you that I’ll keep inside<br />
It’s you I want to stay beside
Simply<br />
Song/Lyric: Dee Lestari<br />
I stand here with a thousand words and tons <strong>of</strong> hopes<br />
But blankness is the place they ended up the most<br />
I’m lost in the frequency <strong>of</strong> the oddities<br />
It feels so hard to breathe<br />
I’m like a hapless piece <strong>of</strong> symphony that no one really cares to hear<br />
Chorus<br />
You simply inspire me<br />
Collide into me<br />
But no one’s there<br />
So why don’t you hold me<br />
Why don’t you move me<br />
So I know you care<br />
I wonder how far to go<br />
To simply have you and simply keep you<br />
And now, when everything has been said and done<br />
In silence I can only wish I am the one<br />
I’m floating like a bubble that will pop and be gone<br />
Just trying to make you see<br />
The simplicity <strong>of</strong> lock and key<br />
And how you’re never ever there to free me<br />
Narration:<br />
From all <strong>of</strong> the thousand thunders<br />
Why was it you who struck me?<br />
The sky is cracking and nothing can patch the leak<br />
Why was it me who dripped from the broken horizon,<br />
gliding against the wall and never be rescued?<br />
From all <strong>of</strong> the thousand places<br />
Why was it me you chose to love,<br />
Why was it me?
Uncommon<br />
Song/Lyric: Dee Lestari<br />
I want to show, that I…<br />
I’m the rainbow<br />
I’m the star that fell on you<br />
But you don’t see<br />
You think <strong>of</strong> me as an ordinary canary<br />
Well, I am different<br />
I am solid gold and only one I’ll be<br />
Only sing for you to hear<br />
For just one pair <strong>of</strong> ears<br />
Shoot me with your rubberbands and take me with a laugh<br />
But somehow I know the things that were never written in the sky<br />
Give me a little trust<br />
Have faith in what you haven’t seen<br />
Cause I’m afraid that I’ll be as you said:<br />
… Common, ordinary, unspecial …<br />
So look at me with your real eyes<br />
Then you’d never be so foolishly<br />
Leaving me on the way<br />
‘Thought you’re right, but no<br />
I’m still the only one<br />
One and only<br />
Who never gives in a commonly loving way<br />
To someone I see so uncommonly<br />
Likes me…<br />
‘Wish you’d never be so foolishly<br />
Leaving me on the way<br />
For someone I see<br />
So common, ordinary, unspecial<br />
Who cannot see an uncommonly loving way<br />
from someone like me:<br />
… Uncommon …<br />
I am the only one<br />
Did I wake you?<br />
I am the only one<br />
for thee
Plastic Cup<br />
Song/Lyric: Dee Lestari<br />
Hi, feels like years since we last talked<br />
And kissed each other’s favorite spot<br />
You must still taste like clove cigarettes<br />
And the way you read the paper, no one ever was so graceful<br />
And I… I’m a walking diary<br />
Pages full <strong>of</strong> memory<br />
Blindness caught me, as they say<br />
And people’s trying to safe my day<br />
I… never thought I could be right<br />
So this is the real matter, this is the real battle…<br />
They try to wake me up<br />
Don’t I have all the rights<br />
To keep my life in circle with no one else entangled<br />
Hi, don’t you miss us holding hands<br />
Sat by the apartment’s window pane<br />
You must still think the rain is silver<br />
I watched you lit the candle, no one looked so good in boxer<br />
And I… I just look for my missing part<br />
How come it could be so hard?<br />
All I get is blasphemy<br />
Peace is such a luxury<br />
I… never thought love could be so true<br />
This is the real challenge now, welcome to the battle…<br />
They try to wake me up<br />
Don’t I have all the rights<br />
To keep my life in circle with no one else entangled<br />
Try to lift me up<br />
Cause I, I’m about to give up<br />
So stir me like your c<strong>of</strong>fee, and keep me in that plastic cup<br />
A milestone or a brain disease<br />
Name it for my reveries<br />
Love is here to purify what people’s trying to falsify<br />
I… always know the reason why<br />
It’s you I’ll never sacrifice<br />
Better have me crucified…<br />
Chorus.<br />
… Just stir me like your c<strong>of</strong>fee …<br />
… And keep me in that plastic cup …
Fire and Ice<br />
Song/Lyric: Dee Lestari<br />
An angel I used to be<br />
Cast away your fears, your rusting tears<br />
I follow till the downfall, and bring you joy<br />
I should be right, I should be true<br />
Closer we used to be<br />
If time might change me, chemically<br />
Till I define with some plastic mind<br />
Have I lost you, or did I have you?<br />
Chorus:<br />
Kala malam tinggalkan<br />
Keinginan, kenangan<br />
Angin menangisimu…<br />
Did I bring fire… or did I freeze you?<br />
For I should be right, I should be true<br />
Strangers we both can be<br />
Cause love can’t quench you more than your due<br />
While I’m somewhere between the two:<br />
Will I be the one, or will I be the none?<br />
Will I be the one… will I be the none?<br />
Should I be here… should I be gone?<br />
Show me the way out <strong>of</strong> your soul<br />
Cause I’m falling farther in<br />
And I can’t let go<br />
Trapped inside my fear <strong>of</strong> the fire and ice you made<br />
But I keep coming back here<br />
Coming back here<br />
Will I be the one… or will I be the none?<br />
Shouldn’t I be right… shouldn’t I be true?<br />
Show me the way into your soul<br />
Cause I’m falling farther in<br />
But I won’t let go<br />
Trapped inside my love <strong>of</strong> the fire and ice you’re bring me now<br />
Dan ku terus berlari, dan ku terus bersembunyi<br />
Dan ku terus berlari… menangisimu<br />
Keep coming back here…
The End<br />
Song/Lyric: Dee Lestari<br />
Are we ready, if this is the end?<br />
The last <strong>of</strong> our scene<br />
With a starry evening screen<br />
And no line’s here to say<br />
We’re just pain on display<br />
Who can’t put on a smile<br />
Am we ready, if this is the end?<br />
And you and I were just seams in a grander scheme<br />
And no one’s here to blame<br />
So why be ashamed?<br />
Mmm… still I can’t put on a smile<br />
Mmm…<br />
Am I ready?<br />
Cause if this is fate then I won’t escape<br />
Let the truth release the chains<br />
Though I cannot block the pain<br />
From entering our veins<br />
Are you ready?<br />
We’re close to the end<br />
I’ve chosen a way without you portrayed<br />
So be ready, cause this is the end<br />
But I can’t stop the pain<br />
So just hold on…<br />
Mmm… still I can’t put on a smile<br />
Mmm…<br />
You’re not alone<br />
Just hold on
<strong>Out</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Shell</strong><br />
Song/Lyric: Dee Lestari<br />
Your moonless horizon so my tide is lost<br />
Teach me to cope with the heat <strong>of</strong> some burning lust<br />
No infatuation, I’m invidious<br />
In this naked soul, there’s nothing but a hole<br />
Share me the pain in your swollen vein<br />
Thousands <strong>of</strong> suns in your crowded orbit, and you’ll add more<br />
I have a stormy desire to be as delirious<br />
With some suicidal blindness, crossing the edges<br />
Chorus:<br />
If you’re sky high<br />
Then there’s no one to blame<br />
If you’re burned down<br />
You won’t feel the flame<br />
But I’m cold and sore<br />
… out <strong>of</strong> shell …<br />
I’m soaked and I long to complete<br />
(the incomplete)<br />
Read to me lines in highfalutin’ speech<br />
Do I have to kneel down to show genuflection, gallantries?<br />
Well, wasn’t that the price to pay: being ridiculous<br />
Stay in a love nest, rush to the edges<br />
I’d stop you from falling but you will stop at nothing…<br />
But now I’ll stop at nothing<br />
Cause I’m sky high and there’s no one to blame<br />
I’m burned down but I don’t feel the flame<br />
I was cold and sore<br />
I’m out <strong>of</strong> my shell<br />
And it’s you that I long to complete<br />
… out <strong>of</strong> shell …<br />
Hey, it’s you that I long to complete
It’s Me<br />
Song/Lyric: Dee Lestari<br />
Come with me, my sweet<br />
We’ve got a heaven there to seek<br />
A little place in the universe<br />
Where stillness can be vigorous<br />
And our silence is so luminous…<br />
An epic is being told<br />
About how honesty unfolds<br />
And kills all the common wills<br />
She’s peering through the murk<br />
For she’s too tired to lurk…<br />
Chorus<br />
It’s me, from the Castle <strong>of</strong> Freedom<br />
It’s me, on a path <strong>of</strong> my own wisdom<br />
So who’s there that’s willing to love you more<br />
Brave enough to wait forever more<br />
It’s me…<br />
Come with me my sweet, we’ve got a heaven there to seek…<br />
They said it’s a Calvary<br />
With millions who disagree<br />
But who’s there that comes out <strong>of</strong> the dark<br />
In a battle to win the light so the world has a better sight…<br />
Of me… in my Castle <strong>of</strong> Freedom<br />
It’s me, on a path <strong>of</strong> my own wisdom<br />
So who’s there that’s willing to love you more<br />
Brave enough to wait forever more<br />
It’s me…<br />
So fly like the butterflies, we’ve got nothing to disguise<br />
Fly like the butterflies, we’ve got nothing to disguise…<br />
Just fly like the butterflies…<br />
With me, in my Castle <strong>of</strong> Freedom<br />
With me, on a path <strong>of</strong> my own wisdom<br />
So who’s there that’s willing to love you more<br />
Brave enough to wait forever more<br />
It’s me…<br />
Just fly like the butterflies…
