Because of Love?
Often I try to understand about you
But the more I don’t understand why you do
Sometimes sweet, sometimes jealous
Sometimes close, sometimes ignore
But I also don’t understand myself too
That still on your side though you like that
Sometimes bored, sometimes float
Sometimes questioning
So what makes us together now?
Because of love
Or maybe it is just a pity
Because of care
Or just common understanding
We live with accept each other
Many times I try to erase you from my mind

Book with No End and No Beginning
We don't know how it started
Then realized we have left a couple chapter behind
When we did it wrong?
Is it a right way now to flip another page forward?
And this strange relation is not bothered by question anymore
We're trapped in the middle of story
We're trying to turn back and roll it again
But we only read the same words over and over
Where is the real truth that hiding somewhere in our heart?
Somewhere between the fight and comeback tears
Is better to close this book and wondering it's just a dream?
So why we don't see it's going to a clear conclusion
Why we can't say good bye to each other
Tired about every way to hurt and hate and forget
Are we missed a few blank page?
Telling the dark secret we both hiding
And the passion with sweet words are just illusion
Because what we own simply a shadow of our loneliness
The story must have an ending
But we don't even have a beginning

Shoujo Mo ADVENTURE Ga Hoshii
Who said only boys that want adventure?
Girls want adventure too
We pledge in fellowship
We love delicious food
And something to make our heart beat fast
Do you think we only like romance, beautiful boys and something shallow?
We like to wander nowhere
And when we are together nothing can make us despair
So boys, give us a chance!
We won't be defeated only by broken heart
We'll prove that we are unpredictable creature
And more than your simple ambition
Who said only boys that could have fun?
Girls want a little fun too
We believe in the power of dream
We love challenge
And something that makes our adrenaline rushes
Do you think we only interest in gossip, clothes and cheesy words?
We could make the life colorful

I Won't Go Back (Indonesian version)
Malam ini akankah kau datang
Atau malah melupakan
Penantianku begitu panjang
Jiwaku menyerpih
Hingga tiba fakta terbentang
Yang tak dapat kau dustakan
Dan dunia seakan menghilang
Hatiku menghitam
Takkan kembali
Takkan merajut asa di diri
Karena ku telah temui
Jalan sepiku sendiri
Tanpa dirimu
Takkan menangis
Walau malam dingin tak terperi
Karena ku telah sadari
Semua berakhir di sini

Dare to Hope
I will try to believe
With the voice you give
Like a thirst man on eaves
Gets water rains to live
I will try to believe
That the sun will never leave
Through the dark time of eve
The light shines from rift
I will dare to hope
And challenge to cope
Until one day it will
Be the love that win
When the wound already healed
Will you march to say goodbye?
When tears flow easily
Will you call beauty is a kind of lie?

Viva Fantasy
Do you have a mirror?
magic picture on the wall?
can we go inside and find
some beautiful fantasy land?
there's no time, no fresh air in my mind
I am almost running my half feet away
do you have a great wardrobe room?
to get a little black space behind
and see some mysterious minds work
together we are no more afraid and curious
taking you to the hill we play
bringing you the childhood once more
if you think it's over
nothing get you out from guilty pleasure
and so what we gonna do?
don't wake up the sleeping dragon
don't touch water on the pool of desire
if you have no wand
no magic spell in the air
so make your own dream story

It would be me
It would be me
Not anybody else
Dear my family, dear my friend
It would be me to live my life
Not anybody else
Though someone I adore
Though someone I really want to be
It would be me who decide my path
Not anybody else
Through my dream, through my hatred
Through my power, through my shame
If I say ‘yes’ some door will be opened, some closed
It would be me which way I choose
If I say ‘no’ some door will be opened anyway, some closed
Not anybody else who face my test
If I ‘m confused some will hurt or gone, some will take a time
Though someone replaces me, though someone is better
It would be me
Not anybody else
Who live now, who breathe this time

Lonesome Song
When you alone and you long me
When no one’s able to hear you
Just breathe of the air and call out my name
I’ll be in the wind that blows around you
When there’s crowd and you long me
When every faces cheering you
Just close your eyes and call out my name
I’ll be in the quiet corner smile to you
When you’re stuck and you long me
When world becomes stranger to you
Just shout loud and call out my name
I’ll be in the door to welcome you
When you’re down and you long me
When all fingers point to you
Just throw sorrow’s wine and call out my name
I’ll be in the hand to help raise you

Art Of Hint
The scent, the taste
The sight, the hearing
The touch, the instinct
Hint plays with our senses
True love or only lust
Growing fear or hidden anger
Beautiful lie or ugly truth
Hint shimmers from the body
Whether strong, whether soft
Unintentional slip, of perfectly planned
Whether puzzling, whether ignored
Hint scattered everywhere
From good news, till the worst scenario
From common sign, to the weirdest attention
The gnawing scar, the flash of glance
Hint whispers to our feeling

Immature
when grows old, what do you think lost?
human when grows old will recognize shame and become coward
learn to pretend not see, to pretend not listen
maybe that's called adult but, when realize
the growth stops
when grows old, the first thing gone is courage
you don't know the world so you don't know fear
you even can't see your own foot palm
of course, there are some who covered by uncertainty and emptiness
every minutes and seconds are too precious
of course, there are some who in too much of a hurry
and lost their identity
even though that, don't think because you are not mature
you don't like yourself right now
don't be afraid to shame, just do what you think
if by the end you realize you're wrong
you can fix it soon, it's alright!
you are so flexibel, young and wise to stand strong
you should love that immaturity
raise your head, because it is your charm and your biggest weapon
