24 Desember 2021

i don't know what day it is
also yesterday or a few days ago

your figure is real
when i see you sleep for a while
while enjoying the veined fatigue
i just want you to know
that our little chat about everything
including the movie you just watched
challenges that you haven't finished yet
the overflow of emotions that are a little passionate
all inflate my heart

even though i know maybe we can do nothing
or rather I can't do anything
but it's okay
it's all very enough
give a turning point of happiness

and I thank you
to the gelato we enjoy
the unfinished sandwich
your delicious aglio olio
mineral water you always order
dimsum that fills you up
the song you're trying to sing
cheap gossip

stay there
even though one day you won't be real
once again i emphasize
no problem 
at least I've felt the turning point

keep being an angel with many names
without pause without pain

thank you

selfless - the strokes

Sebuah lagu yang berdasarkan para fans garis keras The Strokes merupakan lagu yang menandakan kebangkitan band asal New York setelah tujuh tahun Comedown Machine dirilis. Dan ya, lagu dalam album The New Abnormal ini ternyata sering berseliweran di playlist random saya saat night drive -selain tentu saja lagu kebangsaan Why Are Sunday So Depressing-. Awalnya saya ngga ngeh kalo ini suara Julian Casablancas tapi paham betul ini musik The Strokes. Benar saja, lagu ini langsung nyantol di otak saya dan membuat saya ingin mengulik part demi part liriknya yang memang sungguh brilian.
