Ruby - Astari Boedikoentjara
I'm denying my natural rights to fall apart
This world always demands a fight
with all my might
I don't always know
the next levels I should go
a pause
a question for a cause
a bouquet of flowers
a colour represents
a message that says:
“let’s just be friends”
Let's be honest
You're aching for a paradise
not this wretched world
where we all stand on this dying earth
There's no amnesty granted
unless well-paid
Reach deeply into your pockets
until perhaps,
their eyeballs jump out of their sockets
(Dark Thoughts of The Bullied)
It's more than a vacant space
or lack of expression on one's face
It doesn't contain nothing,
I believe there’s a reason
your shattered heart’s been revealed
even when you refuse to mention
or worry you may never heal
I know I’m just a stranger
A night when we cross paths
a blast from the past
the way you look at me
full of familiarity
I know you’re still curious
I sometimes fall asleep
and find myself there again
back to the same quiet streets
and my two best friends
I miss those peaceful streets
I can write
about all the things
I find alright
I’ll let you think
this is about you
Come...
Come back...
Come back to us...
Come back to use, please...
Every line’s a trigger
I miss talking to you
It’s plain simple and true
I understand, we’re both busy
Perhaps this is not the time, I see
No, I’m not going to fret
I know I haven’t
been that kind
not with tons on my mind
I’m still back on my feet
feeble but keeping up
with these erratic beats
