PARADOX
The Alastair Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tiada maksudku
untuk menggapaimu
Tuk menikmatimu

Selalu ku menjauh
Menampik kilaumu
Kau, kau terus mendekat kepadaku
dan engkaupun
Merayu, merayu menari dimataku
Realitaku merabamu yang terus
menghantui, menghantui dan mengikutiku

Mengapa parasmu selalu mengujiku
Selalu saja mencari sisi dan waktuku

Namun aku tlah sampai dibatasku
Tak kuasa, tak kuasa aku dengan khilafku





Yang kutau kau pasti datang lagi untuk menemuiku
