Always On Your Side

Sheryl Crowe featuring Sting

My yesterdays are all boxed up and neatly put away
But every now and then you come to mind
'Cause you were always waiting to be picked to play the game
But when your name was called, you found a place to hide
When you knew that I was always on your side.

Well everything was easy then, so sweet and innocent
My demons and my angels reappeared
Leavin' only traces of the man you thought I'd be
Too afraid to hear the words I'd always feared
Leavin' you with so many questions all these years.

Is there some place far away, some place where all is clear
Easy to start over with the ones you hold so dear
Or are you left to wander, all alone, eternally
This isn't how it's really meant to be
No, it isn't how it's really meant to be.

Well they say that love is in the air, but never is it clear,
How to pull it close and make it stay
Butterflies are free to fly, and so they fly away
And I'm left to carry on and wonder why
Even through it all, I'm always on your side.

Is there some place far away, some place where all is clear
Easy to start over with the ones you hold so dear
Or are we left to wander, all alone, eternally?
But this isn't how it's really meant to be
No, it isn't how it's really meant to be.

Well they say that love is in the air, never is it clear
How to pull it close and make it stay
Butterflies are free to fly, why do they fly away?
Leavin' me to carry on and wonder why
Was it you that kept me wandering through this life?
When you know that I was always on your side.

Today's Desktop: Tak Harus Bahagia

Beeuuuh, keren bener Google Chrome gue!

Gak banyak yang bisa diceritain mengenai hari-hari saya belakangan ini. More because saya males nyeritainnya. Yang pasti dua tahun belakangan sungguhlah amat sangat sebuah perjalanan roller coaster maha dahsyat, yang naik setinggi awan lalu meluncur terjun bebas dengan brutal. Berulang-ulang, berulang-ulang. Saya pikir Allah memang sangat sayang pada umatnya. Semakin tua manusia, semakin dicuciNya dosa-dosa dengan memberikan cobaan-cobaan yang makin sulit dan gak terbayangkan. Sungguh gak terbayangkan. Sejahat apapun, sekotor apapun, sebebal apapun, manusia masih terus diberiNya kesempatan untuk membersihkan diri, hingga maut menjemput. Sungguh Allah mencintai mahlukNya lebih dari cinta seorang ibu kepada anaknya. Subhanallah.

Jadi di sinilah saya. Menjalani sisa hidup dengan tak henti mencoba membersihkan diri dari kotoran yang melekat. Melangkah maju meninggalkan masa lalu yang mengganduli punggung seperti karung beras bernyawa, siap menarik saya jatuh tersungkur lagi.

Kok tulisannya jadi serius gini ya? Hahaha.. Padahal saya cuma mau pamer theme Google Chrome saya yang kereeeeen banget :)

Selamat hari Selasa, bypassers. Setujukah bahwa hidup tidak mesti bahagia?
