Broken Wings Alter Bridge Lyrics Novels & Stories

Mereka bertiga mahir bahkan luwes menggerak-gerakkan jari jemarinya tanpa canggung. “I'm standing on a bridge I'm waitin' in the dark I thought that you'd be here by now There's nothing but the rain No footsteps on the ground I'm listening but there's no sound Isn't anyone tryin' to find me? Won't somebody come take me home? It's a damn cold night Trying to figure out this life Won't you take me by the hand? Take me somewhere new I don't know who you are But I, I'm with you I'm with you

Jiwa mereka, meski tertutup luka, tetap saling mengenali satu sama lain dalam frekuensi yang sama. “I've never stopped, you're still written in the scars on my heart. You're not broken, just bent, and we can learn to love again…” Arkan menyambar bait itu dengan penuh kesungguhan. Zea merasa dunianya goyah. Saat suara mereka akhirnya menyatu sempurna di bagian bridge, ada koneksi magis yang tak bisa dibantah oleh logika mana pun. “Oh, tears ducts and rust…” (Semuanya sudah hancur dan berkarat, bisik Zea dalam hatinya).

Are you lost little girl? Where's your mama? Good grief Skin thick as bricks Was it karma? How old are ya? Watch your back, watch your step Watch your weight, watch your words too They'll come at you with their teeth And their rhinestone-covered sheaths I hope you listen There're too many demons So girl don't you give in To all of the voices around you Saying you can spread your wings Only if you spread those legs first, huh That's the bread and butter of this place

Devada mengangguk. Mereka menemukan jembatan penghubung di atas sungai tidak sebaik seperti sebelumnya. Beberapa pijakan telah patah. Bahkan, susunan kayu itu terlihat menganga di bagian tengah. Badan jembatan bergoyang ketika kaki mereka mulai berpijak di atasnya. Nick yang gugup, meyakinkan diri untuk bisa melewatinya dengan baik. Kepulan asap yang membumbung mulai memeras keringat dari dalam pori. Sebentar saja mereka hampir sampai. Namun, tiba-tiba, Nick berhenti. Perhentian kakinya yang mendadak membuat jembatan tua itu makin koyak. Beberapa kayu pijakan berjatuhan ke sungai. Devada hampir saja terperosok andai dia tidak cepat-cepat memajukan kaki.

Tears are in your eyes Come on and come to me now Don't be ashamed to cry Let me see you through 'cause I've seen the dark side too When the night falls on you You don't know what to do Nothing you confess Could make me love you less I'll stand by you I'll stand by you Won't let nobody hurt you I'll stand by you So if you're mad, get mad Don't hold it all inside Come on and talk to me now Hey, what you got to hide? I get angry too Well I'm a lot like you When you're standing at the crossroads And don't know which path to choose Let me come along 'cause even if you're wrong I'll stand by you I'll stand by you Won't let nobody hurt you I'll stand by you Take me in, into your darkest hour And I

Di sudut ruangan, Adrian menyimak dengan serius, membuat catatan kecil di notebook-nya. Saat nadanya berhenti, Luna berpaling ke Adrian. “Gimana menurutmu?” Adrian menatap ke gitar, kemudian ke lirik. “Bagian bridge-nya kuat, tapi rasanya perlu sedikit transisi ke minor sebelum chorus. Biar pendengarnya diajak ‘berjalan’ bersama perjalanan emosinya.” Luna mengangguk, mencatat saran itu. “Kamu bantu tambahin part-nya?”

Lights will guide you home And ignite your bones And I will try to fix you And high up above or down below When you're too in love to let it go But if you never try you'll never know Just what you're worth Lights will guide you home And ignite your bones And I will try to fix you Tears stream down your face When you lose something you cannot replace Tears stream down your face and I Tears stream down your face I promise you I will learn from my mistakes Tears stream down your face and I Lights will guide you home And ignite your bones And I will try to fix you

Ujar Sarah panjang-panjang. There ain't no gold in this river That I've been washin' my hands in forever I know there is hope in these waters But I can't bring myself to swim When I am drowning in this silence Baby, let me in Go easy on me, baby I was still a child Didn't get the chance to Feel the world around me I had no time to choose What I chose to do So go easy on me There ain't no room for things to change When we are both so deeply stuck in our ways

At the restaurant when I was still the one you want Cross-legged in the dim light, everything was just right I, I could feel the mascara run You told me that you met someone Glass shattered on the white cloth Everybody moved on Help, I’m still at the restaurant Still sitting in a corner I haunt Cross-legged in the dim light They say, “What a sad sight” I, I stayed there Dust collected on my pinned-up hair I’m sure that you got a wife out there Kids and Christmas, but I’m unaware ‘Cause I’m right where I cause no harm

Alex berusaha menutupi perasaannya. Ziona mencerna perkataan dari Alex. Langit dan bumi tidak akan pernah bersatu. “Apa perbedaan aku dan Zefa sejauh itu? apa nggak ada keajaiban yang bisa menyatukan kami berdua?” Ziona bertanya dalam hati.

Anggab saja saya tidak punya telinga. Saya tidak akan bertanya apa-apa pada Anda.”
