Art of Humor
The parody, the comic
The irony, the slapstick
The comedy, the joke
There are many names of humor
A little flirt, a bit sway
A random bait, a strike catch
A prick of crack, a needed pain
So far we go just for humor
Because it is fun, because it is crazy
Because it is refreshing, because it brings laugh
Lightening the mood, building emotion
Always use humor in a good way
The situation, the mimic
The trap, the surprise
The movement, the style
Only human could understand humor

Someone must play the bad part in this world
I will ask you to play
the ghostly slip from your finger away
you know I'm better liar than you
though my body's torn and hell is my pay
it's my instinct to crush all the way
you know I'm the villain
yeah, I can do that part
I'll make you confused
yeah, nobody could predict me
I would not answer your call
I'll tie you wait on the wall
force you till limit, deny what you care
I'll taste your sweat, I'll enjoy your cry
just to doubt I'm no worth living at all
you know I should be mean
yeah, it's running in my wells
I'll tease you to explode

Fundamental of Liar Chapter VIII: Love
Cineraria laughs at me in the dark
There's time when I dreamed
That you'll choose me to be loved
You start a lie that you don't know
I know the lie but I let it happen
Though I have this arm in my shoulder
My heart restlessly cries
Lies love lies
You and I are lying
We lying each other
We lying to ourself
We both repeat the lie to cover the lie
How can we be happy above the lie?
Then you know this love is lie
You're caring me just because you don't want to be hurt
To protect me but you actually protect yourself
Your warmth and tender is true but love me not
You still pretend to love me and keep lying

Fundamental of Liar Chapter CXVI: One in a Million
A million feeling, one story
One feeling, a million story
A million question, one anxiety
One question, a million anxieties
A million smile, one meaning
One smile, a million meaning
A million languages, one will
One language, a million will
A million anger, one reaction
One anger, a million reaction
A million beginning, one ending
One beginning, a million ending
A million face, one heart
One face, a million hearts

If she only knows
If she only knows
Every night he murmurs in my pillow
Calling her name in his sleep
Asking why she never notices his feeling
If she only knows
She’s the only one in his dream
He’ll do anything, anything to please her
Anything to get her
She’s always cold, too proud to surrender
But he doesn’t care
She could break him, easily play his heart
But he can’t give up
He wants her, he only wants her to spend his life
Though there are so many other women
He needs her, in need to love her
To protect her, to make her smiles
If she only knows
She’s the only one in his mind
I see her shadow in his eyes
Every time he kisses me, every time he holds me

Running Man
There is time when you break down
There is time when you can't move on
Your feet are shaking
The pain is suffocating
And you are wondering 'is this the end? '
So who you want to impress anyway
So why you pretend to please anyone
Jump now, forget the how
As long as you still breathing
As long as your blood still trickling
Beat the crow, strike the arrow
Doesn't care when you will fall
Doesn't care where you will land
All you care is how you raise again
There is time when you are lost
There is time when you become hopeless
Your heart is wavering

Sometimes Love Doesn't Enough
So many words unsaid
And the unsaid becomes too late
What do we have other than regret?
I love you, I really do
But sometimes it doesn't enough
So many waiting for tomorrow
And tomorrow becomes more rows
What do we have other than sorrow?
I love you, I really do
But sometimes I should have you
So many questions to be reason
And reason lose its importance
What do we have other than illusion?
I love you, I really do
But sometimes it is hard to keep the promise
When sadness turns to anger
And anger spreads its poison

Waktu yang Tepat
kapankah waktu yang tepat itu?
apakah bila kita secepat kilat
atau sewaktu berhitung cermat
kapankah waktu yang tepat itu?
apakah bila bergerak mendekat
atau bersabar menunggu penjerat
kapankah waktu yang tepat itu?
apakah bila kita melihat
atau ketika tak ada yang berbuat
kapankah waktu yang tepat itu?
apakah bila kita terus memahat
atau dimana semua sudah tersurat
kapankah waktu yang tepat itu?
apakah bila kehormatan terdesak
atau kala keberanian terdapat
kapankah waktu yang tepat itu?
apakah bila musuh merapat
atau sewaktu tak terlambat
kapankah waktu yang tepat itu?
apakah bila kita menangkap waktu yang sesaat

Art of Pain
Whether physical, whether emotional
Whether healed completely, whether leaving scar
Whether obvious, whether hidden well
Pain is the world of nightmare
Whether mild, whether severe
Occasionally hurt, or continue disturbing
Whether acceptable risk, whether unwelcome trouble
Pain is the word of torment
By accident, by sacrifice
By breaking bad, by doing right
Struck by grief, intensified by guilt
Pain is the level of endurance
Loved for angst, hated for weakness
The pleasure for S, the need for M
Whether understood, whether denied
Pain is an honest friend

At Least, Everybody's Happy
I want you to be happy
Because if you happy
I will be happy too
I want you to feel happy
Because if you happy
I will feel peaceful
I want your happiness
Because if you happy
I won't need anything else
I want to see you happy
Because if you happy
I will not be forced to see you grieving
I want you to know happiness
Because if you happy
I will not disturb only by your sorrow
