{DEMO} Yang Terlupakan
by DwAN
Recently, I realized that since 2008 I usually write at least 1 very sad – very heart broken – very miserably song each year. One of the song, that I wrote in 2009, is one of my favorite song. The song called “Yang Terlupakan”.
The story behind this song is based on my real life story that I exaggerate and become a not so standard broken heart story. If you can read the lyric, that I wrote in bahasa Indonesia, you can tell that this song is about a man that fall in love with a girl but the the girl didn’t love him back. The girl herself have tendency to hate the man, she even looks down to the man.
At the end the girl passed away as the man himself began to hate her for what her do to him is unbearable. Somehow the man still loved the girl, but the love itself had been overpowered by the hate that he had for her.
The music: This is the only music that I create using nothing more than basic piano. Because, I want to make it as melancholy as I can. I could (maybe should) add another sound, such us violin or bass, but I end up loving this simple composition.
The voice: Yes, I still can’t sing very well. But, at least it decent, although pitchy in some note.
Yang Terlupakan
[Verse]
Hatiku, hatiku hancur.
Mengingatmu aku pun tak bisa
dan aku pun bersedih.
Sedihku, sedihku
mengingingatkan kau sudah ada di sana
dan aku pun menangis.
[Bridge]
Karena engkau satu yang ku puja, selama ini ku puja.
Karena engkau satu yang ku mau.
Mestinya engkau menganggap ku ada di mana pun ku berada.
Mestinya engkau menganggap ku ada.
[Chorus]
Karena kau, karena kau, karena kau ku begini.
Karena kau, karena kau, karena kau ku membenci.
Mestinya kau hidup di dalam hatiku ini.
Sehingga ku dapat mengenangmu sewajarnya.
[Verse]
Engkaulah, engkaulah
sebuah permata yang hampir saja aku miliki
namun kau tak mengerti
[Bridge]
kau terlalu berharga untuk selalu mendampingi aku
kau menganggap diriku tak ada
[Chorus]
Foot note:
While I’ve been telling you that this song is about a not so standard broken heart story, the real story about this song is about my own broken relationship with someone I truly care. I’m glad, it end up nicely not tragically like this song.
[...] Vocal: Still terrible, even-though I’ve try to record more than 10 times. At least, unlike Yang Terlupakan, you can actually hear me singing in here [...]
