Description
It sounds like the soundtrack to correspondence, where each “read” hits a little harder than one would like. Everything is slow, almost whispered, as if the night itself is listening to someone's patience running out. The lines flow wearily - without drama, but with that familiar feeling: when love is still there, but there is no strength left to wait.
There is no resentment in the voice, just quiet exhaustion. That tenderness that does not go away with a cry, but simply fades away, like a phone screen after the last message. And somewhere deep down, there is still a foolish hope: maybe they will remember. Maybe they will write. Although, it seems, it's time to sleep.
Lyrics and translation
Original
Berusaha tetap terjaga
Tunggu kamu selesaikan semua kesibukan
Dering yang paling kunantikan
Akhirnya datang hanya menyapa sebentar
Pamit tidur duluan
Kumaklumi s'lalu
Kumengerti kamu
Punya sibuk lain
Tak harus aku, tak s'lalu aku
Lama-lama lelah juga aku
Seperti hanya aku yang butuhkan kamu
Lama-lama habis tenagaku
Bila bukan lagi aku tempat pulang yang kautuju
Jangan ulur waktu
Kumaklumi s'lalu
Kumengerti kamu
Punya sibuk lain
Tak harus aku, tak s'lalu aku
Kumaklumi s'lalu
Kumengerti kamu
Punya sibuk lain
Tak harus aku, tak s'lalu aku
Lama-lama lelah juga aku
Seperti hanya aku yang butuhkan kamu
Lama-lama (lama-lama) habis tenagaku
Bila bukan lagi aku tempat pulang yang kautuju
Jangan ulur waktu
Berusaha tetap kujaga
Sampai habis, tak tersisa tenaga yang kupunya
Kini tak lagi kunantikan
Lakukan semua senyamanmu saja
Ku menyerah
English translation
Try to stay awake
Wait for you to finish all your busy schedules
The ring I've been waiting for the most
Finally came just to say hello for a moment
Go to sleep first
I'll understand it all the time
I understand you
Got busy with something else
It doesn't have to be me, it's not always me
After a while I got tired too
Like I'm the only one who needs you
After a while my energy ran out
If I'm no longer the place you go home to
Don't delay
I'll understand it all the time
I understand you
Got busy with something else
It doesn't have to be me, it's not always me
I'll understand it all the time
I understand you
Got busy with something else
It doesn't have to be me, it's not always me
After a while I got tired too
Like I'm the only one who needs you
Over time (over time) my energy ran out
If I'm no longer the place you go home to
Don't delay
I'm trying to keep up
Until it runs out, I have no energy left
Now I can't wait any longer
Just do everything as you like
I give up
