Description
Sometimes the city seems to fade. The air is still the same - humid, sticky, with the smell of coffee and gasoline, but it seems like there's less sound, less light in it. Just because someone isn't waiting for you around the corner anymore. And even if a stranger's congratulations are flashing on your phone, where your name isn't mentioned, it still echoes inside you quietly: "It could have been different once." There's a strange comfort in the fact that pain makes you feel alive. What exactly grows out of sadness is understanding - not everything that seems like a loss is actually a negative. Sometimes letting go is the only way to remain human. Even if the heart is still smoldering a little from what was left unsaid.
Lyrics and translation
Original
Jakarta hari ini tak pernah sama.
Jika dahulu ku tak pernah membuatnya kecewa.
Jakarta hari ini tak pernah ada.
Jika dahulu ku tak pernah membuatnya menyeka air mata.
Dan sebuah pesan menyapa.
Mencelat di hari bahagia. Tanpa namaku yang di sana.
Turut badimu selamanya.
Menyakitkan.
Kini terlalu sakit.
Terlampau getir untuk diterima.
Yang datang dan pergi.
Kan membuatmu mengerti.
Kadang kita perlu tersakiti. Tuk mengenal perih.
Yang datang dan pergi.
Semua yang harus dilalui.
Kadang kita perlu tersakiti.
Tuk menjadi manusia.
Akhirnya ku menyerah.
Maafkanku yang menyalah.
Jika dahulu ku tak pernah membuatmu bahagia.
Akhirnya ku mengalah.
Tak biarkan kau menyalah.
Mesti harus ku lewati pedih yang tiada akhirnya.
Akhirnya ku menyerah.
Maafkanku yang menyalah.
Jika dahulu ku tak pernah membuatmu bahagia.
Akhirnya ku mengalah.
Mengalahkan mudanya nyawa.
Dan rayakanlah hari-hari kerinduanmu di sana.
English translation
Jakarta today is never the same.
In the past, I never disappointed him.
Today's Jakarta never existed.
In the past, I never made him wipe his tears.
And a message saying hello.
Cheering on a happy day. Without my name there.
Be with you forever.
Hurtful.
It hurts too much now.
Too bitter to accept.
Who comes and goes.
That makes you understand.
Sometimes we need to get hurt. To know the pain.
Who comes and goes.
Everything that has to be done.
Sometimes we need to get hurt.
To become human.
Finally I gave up.
I'm sorry I made a mistake.
In the past, I never made you happy.
Finally I gave in.
Don't let yourself be wrong.
I have to go through endless pain.
Finally I gave up.
I'm sorry I made a mistake.
In the past, I never made you happy.
Finally I gave in.
Beating the youth of life.
And celebrate your longing days there.
