Jadi ceritanya waktu gw ulang tahun ke-23 kemaren gw lagi emo banget.
akhirnya gw puter playlist Dashboard Confessional gw kenceng2...
jeritan2 Chris Carrabba menemani teriakan2 gw (oke, ini bahasanya lebay).
sebenernya agak ga nyambung sih antara masalah gw dan lagu2nya DC, tapi lagunya DC emang paling enak buat dipake teriak2 suara hati.

ada suatu ketika saat itu gw ketiduran saat menangis, dan ketika gw terbangun dan masih menangis pas ama lagu Belle of the Boulevard.

Don't turn away...dry your eyes, dry your eyes
Don't be afraid... keep it all inside, all inside
When you fall apart... dry your eyes, dry your eyes
Life is always hard
For the Belle of the Boulevard

Please hold on, it's alright
Please hold on, it's alright
Please hold on

and I dried my eyes.. it's like he was there to comfort me.


I'm the one who hates when people telling me "it's gonna be okay" when I had problems. Because I know, It's not okay. So when problems come, I just need a lone time, cry my heart out, til I'm ready to face the world again.



oleh karena itu gw membulatkan niat gw untuk nonton Dashboard Confessional lagi di Java Rockin Land. gw cuma nungguin DC walau hari itu ada Arkarna dan Stereophonics.
kali ini gw bawa kamera digital gw, dan gw sempat merekam 12 dari 13 lagu yang mereka bawa. lagu pertamanya, Don't Wait, ga sempet gw rekam karena gw lagi excited mereka tampil. jadi sisa lagu semuanya gw rekam.


ini hasil rekaman gw. maaf2 aja ada suara sumbang gw, gambarnya goyang2.. buat private collection aja..

Down in a local bar
Out on the Boulevard
The sound of an old guitar
Is saving you from sinking
It's a long way down, It's a long way

Back like you never broke
You tell a dirty joke
He touches your leg
And thinks He's getting close
For now you let him
Just this once
Just for now
And just like that
It's over.

[Chorus]
Don't turn away
Dry your eyes, dry your eyes
Don't be afraid
But keep it all inside, all inside
When you fall apart
Dry your eyes, dry your eyes
Life is always hard
For the Belle of the Boulevard

In all your silver rings
In all your silken things
That song you softly sing
Is keeping you from breaking
It's a long way down, it's a long way

Back here you never lost
You shake the shivers off
You take a drink
To get your courage up
Can you believe it?
Just this once
Just for now
And just like that
It's over

[Chorus]
Don't turn away
Dry your eyes, dry your eyes
Don't be afraid
But keep it all inside, all inside
When you fall apart
Dry your eyes, dry your eyes
Life is always hard
For the Belle of the Boulevard

Please hold on, it's alright
Please hold on, it's alright
Please hold on

Down in a local bar
Out on the boulevard
The sound of an old guitar
Is saving you

[Chorus]
Don't turn away
Dry your eyes, dry you eyes
Don't be afraid
Keep it all inside, all inside
When you fall apart
Dry your eyes, dry your eyes
Life is always hard
For the Belle of the Boulevard
