Kelabu
Marcomarche Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hidup di satu warna
Berada di bayangan yang tenang
Mengenang yang taj bertuan
Turun mengembing dan tak berdaya
Warnanya tenang kan ku
Zonanya bebas kan ku
Tak bersudut dan tiada bertanding
Hidup di suatu masa
Berjalan dibayangan kelam ku
Mimpi yang tak bertuan
Terombang ambing tak berdaya
Tak bersudut dan tiada bertepi




Terombang ambing tak berdaya
end
