Menghapus Jejakmu
peterpan Lyrics

The lyrics to Peterpan's 'Menghapus Jejakmu' describe the struggle of trying to move on from a past relationship. The opening lines, "Terus melangkah melupakanmu/Belah hati perhatikan sikapmu" (Keep moving on to forget you/My heart is wary of your behavior), suggest that the singer is actively trying to forget their ex-partner but is being held back by doubts and conflicting feelings. The repetition of "perlahan" (slowly) emphasizes the gradual nature of this process, as they try to distance themselves from their memories of the person. However, as they try to move forward, their dreams continue to torment them.

The chorus, "Engkau bukanlah segalaku/Bukan tempat tuk hentikan langkahku/Usai sudah semua berlalu/Biar hujan menghapus jejakmu" (You're not everything to me/Not a place to stop my steps/It's all over now/Let the rain erase your footsteps), highlights the realization that this person was not meant to be a mainstay in the singer's life. The phrase "biar hujan menghapus jejakmu" (let the rain erase your footsteps) adds a sense of finality and closure, suggesting that by allowing nature to take its course, they can truly move on from the past relationship.

Overall, the song conveys a bittersweet message of acceptance and release. The singer understands that they must let go, but it is not an easy process. Ultimately, they find solace in the elements of nature erasing the memories of their ex.
