3. stay together for the kids- blink 182
It's hard to wake up
When the shades have been pulled shut
This house is haunted
It's so pathetic
It makes no sense at all
I'm ripe with things to say
The words rot and fall away
What stupid poem could fix this home
I'd read it every day
So here's your holiday
Hope you enjoy it this time
You gave it all away
It was mine
So when you're dead and gone
Will you remember this night
Twenty years now lost
It's not right
Their anger hurts my ears
Been running strong for seven years
Rather than fix the problems
They never solve them
It makes no sense at all
I see them everyday
We get along, so why can't they?
If this is what he wants
And this is what she wants
Then why is there so much pain?
So here's your holiday
Hope you enjoy it this time
You gave it all away
It was mine
So when you're dead and gone
Will you remember this night
Twenty years now lost
It's not right
So here's your holiday
Hope you enjoy it this time
You gave it all away
It was mine
So when you're dead and gone
Will you remember this night
Twenty years now lost
It's not right
It's not right
It's not right
It's not right

Bukan, lagu ini bukan tentang aku. Lagu ini
mengingatkanku untuk kembali banyak-banyak bersyukur. Aku tidak mengalami ini,
dan semoga tidak akan pernah. Beruntung, jauh lebih beruntung daripada beberapa
orang terdekatku.
Seorang teman dekatku pernah menangis di
kamar mandi sekolah melempar kacamata yang dikenakannya. Dengan kaku aku
bertanya ada apa. Suaranya parau. Bercerita tentang ayahnya yang sering pergi
ke luar kota, katanya dinas, tapi terlalu sering. Ibunya sendiri di rumah.
Sampai ibunya pernah menemukan beberapa pesan teks di handphone ayahnya.
Seorang temanku yang lain bahkan. harus
membagi cinta ayahnya untuk keluarga lain. Keluarga, bukan hanya seorang. Kedua
keluarga itu sama sekali tidak pernah saling mengenal. Ikhlaskah? Ketika tahu
ayahmu membelikan rumah untuk keluarga lain semetara untuk meminta tambahan
uang saku saja kamu segan. Diceritakannya sambil memetik gitar yang menambah
syahdu.
Seorang teman yang lain. Di tengah
mentraktirku segelas minuman, menceritakan hidupnya. Ia tidak lagi tinggal
bersama ayahnya. Ia dan adiknya hidup hanya bersama ibu yang pasti mati-matian
memperjuangkan hidupnya. Setelah lama tidak bertemu baru ayahnya menjenguknya,
ketika dia kecelakaan, patah di persendian tangannya.
p.s: baru tau lagu ini dari dimas udin. Waktu
itu sih niatnya buat punk-punkan sama udin wahyu budi. Manaaaa
realisasinyaaaa???
