Maafkanku
6ixth Sense Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hadirnya dirimu didalam hidupku
Telah merubah segalanya

Dan telah aku lewati saat gelap hidupku
Namun aku masih tak menyakini
Diriku yang cuba menghapuskan
Mimpi-mimpi buruk yang lalu
Inginku berlari dan menggapai hasratku
Apakah kau kan berlalu pergi

Terkapai-kapai aku inginku membuktikan
Kejujuranku kepadamu
Dan kini kusedari diriku
Masih liar untuk dimiliki

Maafkanku
Kerna mengingkari janji
Yang terpatri dahulu padamu

Maafkanku

Atas kekurangan yang ada
Pada diriku ini
