Picture Me Broken - Live Forever Lyrics


Title : Live Forever
Artist : Picture Me Broken
Album : Dearest (I'm So Sorry)


Something woke me
Woke me up and told me
I’m not half alive… I’m choking
Thought I’d hold on just barely
Turn my wishes in fears
And my smiles into tears
But it’s over… is this over?

Rise from the ruins
I’ll never die
I’ll wake up feeling fine
And I think I could Live Forever
Alive as I fall from your cold embrace
I must die or live forever
Forever

Let’s find strength to go our own way
Don’t live another day
Drowning in all your
Enemies, don’t follow me
I’m not listening
I’ve wasted so much time
I’ll leave you far behind

Turned my wishes into fears
And my smiles into tears
But it’s over
Is this over?

Rise from the ruins
I’ll never die
I’ll wake up feeling fine
And I think I could Live Forever
Alive as I fall from your cold embrace
I must die or live forever
Forever

Your caustic words will never kill me
I’d like to be the last one to fall
It’s not that I hate you
I’m simply above this
I just want to live

Rise from the ruins
I’ll never die
I’ll wake up feeling fine
And I think I could Live Forever
Alive as I fall from your cold embrace
I must die or live forever
Forever

Rise from the ruins
I’ll never die
I’ll wake up feeling fine
And I think I could Live Forever

Picture Me Broken - If I Never Wake Again Lyrics


Title : If I Never Wake Again
Artist : Picture Me Broken
Album : Dearest (I'm So Sorry)


There must be something I could say
And if I never wake again
Remember me just as I'm breathing before you
The same as all along

I'll hold you from sorrow
It's better off this way and
If I die tomorrow
What of me follows you forever
Unforgiven sins
And all that lies beneath my skin
And all these things I never told you

There must be something I could say
And if I never wake again
Remember me just as I'm breathing before you
The same as all along

Here I am in color
No luster, glamour or gold
I hope you'd remember me
Dressed in shadows, black and white
To flatter the faulted soul
You never witnessed me unfold
All these things I never told you

There must be something I could say
And if I never wake again
Remember me just as I'm breathing before you
The same as all along

There must be something I could say
And if I never wake again
Remember me just as I'm breathing before you
The same as all along

The same as all along
The same as all along
The same as all along
The same as all along

Picture Me Broken - Echoes Of An Empire Lyrics


Title : Echoes Of An Empire
Artist : Picture Me Broken
Album : Dearest (I'm So Sorry)


You're wide-awake
Only you can let yourself out
When no one hears you screaming
from behind these walls

The cure is in our blood we're
Find our way out here
We'll fall beneath the fear
Make a killing
This is how we…

[Chorus:]
Sharpen our knives
And sever all these ties that
Hold us down and take us out
Alive

I'm wide-awake
My pulse could turn these walls to dust
As you try to find your way
through blinded eyes

The cure is in our blood we're
Find our way out here
We'll fall beneath the fear
Make a killing
This is how we…

Sharpen our knives
And sever all these ties that
Hold us down and take us out
Alive

I will never let you take me alive,
I will never let you take me alive,
I will never let you take me alive,
I will never let you take me alive
I'll never have enough
(until there's nothing left,
nothing left)
I'll never have enough
(until there's nothing left,
nothing left of me)

I'll never have enough
until there's nothing left of me
I'll never have enough
until there's nothing left of me
I'll never have enough
until there's nothing left of me.

Sharpen our knives
And sever all these ties that
Hold us down and take us out
Alive

Sharpen our knives
And sever all these ties
Sharpen our knives
And sever all these ties

Picture Me Broken - Devil On My Shoulder Lyrics


Title : Devil On My Shoulder
Artist : Picture Me Broken
Album : Dearest (I'm So Sorry)


Walk through the door
Found your ghost upon the floor
My stomach’s turning and it’s all within me burning
If you’d see the future would
you know if I’d
Soon be sane again
oh yeah

I’ve searched for something
Lived for nothing
Waiting here to die for something

[Chorus:]
When your face arises my stomach drops
It’s all too much
I’m just a little colder
With a devil on my shoulder
He says I’d like to show her
The way I’d get to know her
(I’m up to no good)

[Verse 2:]
Strut down the hall
Saw your shadow on the wall
Soul escaping
Mind’s awaking and I’m stuck beneath it all
I dyed these white lies black
Behind your back but you’d do just the same
Don’t be ashamed you’re just like me….

I’ve searched for something
Lived for nothing
Waiting here to die for something

When your face arises my stomach drops
It’s all too much
I’m just a little colder
With a devil on my shoulder
He says I’d like to show her
The way I’d get to know her
(I’m up to no good)

I am
I’m up to no good
I am
I’m up to no good
I am, I am, I am, I am
Up to no good, Up to no good, Up to no good

When your face arises my stomach drops
It’s all too much
I’m just a little colder
With a devil on my shoulder
He says I’d like to show her
The way I’d get to know her
(I’m up to no good)

Album : Dearest (I'm So Sorry)


A little less innocence
His morals aren’t so well defined
You’re here again, the rush beings
A line of joy and suicide.

I can’t find the words to say this.
I’m running out of patience.

Dearest I'm so sorry you're disturbed.
You know I'd hang on every word.
With each breath you take
I think I’ve learned.
Careful you might get burned.

Tears tug at the corners of my eyes.
But I won’t let them go this time.
You’re here again, the rush begins.
A line of joy and suicide.

I can’t find the words to say this.
I’m running out of patience

Dearest I'm so sorry you're disturbed.
You know I'd hang on every word.
With each breath you take
I think I’ve learned.
Careful you might get burned.

Let’s go…

Dearest I’m sorry
But this is not working.

Holding onto what I fight for
Bleeding for you,
A face to die for
A face to die for

Holding onto what I fight for
Bleeding for you,
A face to die for

Dearest I'm so sorry you're disturbed.
You know I'd hang on every word.
With each breath you take
I think I’ve learned.
Careful you might get burned.

Album : Dearest (I'm So Sorry)


Step into my senses
Shatter all my darkness
Find this cure for sadness
You exhaled like an injection
So have this girl in ruins

[Chorus:]
I’ve fallen faster than ever, after
I swore I’d never escape disaster
Fallen faster than ever and you’re
Here to take it all away

When all failed to draw me from desecration
Your sensation filled my lungs
A stare like a thousand stars
That blinded me to harsh reality

I’ve fallen faster than ever, after
I swore I’d never escape disaster
Fallen faster than ever and you’re
Here to take it all away

Fallen faster than ever after
I swore I’d never escape disaster
Fallen faster than ever after
I swore I’d never escape disaster

I’ve fallen faster than ever, after
I swore I’d never escape disaster
Fallen faster than ever and you’re
Here to take it all away
fallen faster than ever, after
I swore I’d never escape disaster

Fit For Rivals - Reason Lyrics


Title : Reason
Artist : Fit For Rivals

Prove to me you're just like them so I know I'm right again.
You've changed throughout the years, but yet I remained here.
It's such a shame to see you go it's for the best I know.
Whoa, what's your problem?

Things, can't get any worse.
Nothing you can coerce.
Nothing you can do now.
Now except your fate.

Give me, give me one more reason.
To believe in you again, in you again.

And when you try to come back and say you're sorry again.
We'll turn our backs and forget that you ever came.
So here's our farewell the pressure is all off of us now.

Things, can't get any worse.
Nothing you can coerce.
Nothing you can do now.
Now except your fate.

Give me, give me one more reason.
To believe in you again, in you again.

Give me, give me one more reason.
To believe in you again, in you again.


Give me, give me one more reason.
To believe in you again, in you again.

Give me, give me one more reason.
To believe in you again, in you again.

Give me, give me one more reason.
To believe in you again, in you again.

Give me, give me one more reason.
To believe in you again, in you again.

Fit For Rivals - Hallelujah Lyrics

What you want from me.
What I want from you.
There's no working it out.

Take your hands off me.
This just cannot be.
I've got someone waiting outside.

Your tears coagulate, dear this is our fate.
Just get the hell away from me.

Sorry I'm a bitch, can't ever work through it.
Let's take the easy way out.

One last time and one good story.
Scream hallelujah, scream hallelujah.

Once for the time you never came.

One more time and one for history.
Scream hallelujah, scream hallelujah.

There's just no easy way out.

There is no memory.
In which I can see.
That even vaguely matters to me.

Don't know what to do.
Something I can't refuse.
That keeps me coming back to you.

It's not that I don't care.
I know that I'm not fair.
No honesty between me and you.

It comes down to this, one half-hearted kiss.
I'm drunk like it matters anyway.

One last time and one good story.
Scream hallelujah, scream hallelujah.

Once for the time you never came.

One more time and one for history.
Scream hallelujah, scream hallelujah.

There's just no easy way out.

You think you've figured me out, I'm on my way outta town.
And if you had any clue, I think you'd know what to do.

You think you've figured me out, I'm on my way outta town.
And if you had any clue, I think you'd know what to do.

One last time and one good story.
Scream hallelujah, scream hallelujah.

Once for the time you never came.

One last time and one good story.
Scream hallelujah, scream hallelujah.

Once for the time you never came.

One more time and one for history.
Scream hallelujah, scream hallelujah.

There's just no easy way out.

You took it off, and put it on for them.
Never satisfied with no one no not anything.
You take it all and throw it back at them.
Everything is wrong unless you have your way again.

Take your time, don't hurry up, cause nothing is ever enough.

Your time is running out.

You shook me off, and went around again.
Never satisfied with no one no not anything.
You came around, to fade away with them.
Everything is wrong unless you have your way again.

How you try to make believe in something your not.
Your time is running out.

You don't know anything
You don't know anything
You don't know anything about me

Once it starts, it never stops
Discipline, it's all I'm not
Can't help myself, you listening?
Why can't I say just what I want?

You don't know anything
No, you don't know anything about me

Steady damage, cross the line
What's become clearly defined
Steady damage, cross the line
What's become clearly defined

Chain me up, hold me down
Just let me go, there's always more
I want it all excluding you
Losing control, so construed

You don't know anything
No, you don't know anything about me

No!
Steady damage, cross the line
What's become clearly defined
Steady damage, cross the line
What's become clearly defined

Steady damage, cross the line
All that is done is left behind
Steady damage, cross the line
You had it all now I got mine

I can't wait to see your face when I make it without you
Nothing seems to go your way, you'll never amount to

Get away, get away, get away from me
Get away (never amount to)
Get away, get away, get away from me
Get away (never amount to sh*t)

Steady damage, cross the line

Steady damage, cross the line

You had it all now I got mine

Pass this on as my epilogue.
Heartless, selfish, alone they'll fall.

Light the match, breathe in deep I cried.
Lock the doors, let them burn inside.

Cut off your hands there's no escaping.
You try to get up to severe the craving.

Redrawn, appease this con, and recess back to what you've become.

The end is neigh, fading into night.
Vengeance, consequence, left entwined.

Abhor the hopeless, apprise this crime, soon everything will be alright.

Cut off your hands there's no escaping.
You try to get up to severe the craving.

Redrawn, appease this con, and recess back to what you've become.


You think I've had enough, but I'm not giving up.
You think I've had enough.
You think I've had enough, but I'm not giving up.
You think I've had enough.
And I say.

Cut off your hands there's no escaping.
You try to get up to severe the craving.

Redrawn, appease this con, and recess back to what you've become.

Cut off your hands there's no escaping.
You try to get up to severe the craving.

Come back, after all is broken.
Everything is burning, no one is returning.

Don't know why I'm crawling.
Everybody's running, everybody's running.
Re-spun back to where there's something.
Everything was falling, trust in what was nothing.

Step back, step back, everybody step back, step back.

Go back, back to the beginning.
My heart was racing, nothing seemed to faze me.
When you turned to me and said, all the time.

There's nothing left for you to say, it's the same old story.
Your ignorance is what's to blame, it's worth ignoring.

The consequence of never wanting to change.

Can I say? It's not the same just take the blame.

7 Alasan Untuk Bersepeda


1.Membakar Kalori

Seorang wanita yang berat tubuhnya sekitar 60 kg jika mengayuh dengan kecepatan 22 km/jam bisa membakar sekitar 488 kalori dalam waktu 60 menit.

2.Bisa Dilakukan Sambil Beraktivitas Lain

Jika tempat tinggal Anda berjarak 8 km dari kantor, dan Anda naik sepeda menuju kantor, setidaknya Anda sudah berolahraga selama 20 menit. Jika Anda tinggal dekat dengan kantor, Anda bisa mengayuh sepeda dua kali seminggu dan membakar sekitar 3.000 kalori ekstra dalam tubuh, sekitar setengah kilo dalam sebulan.

3.Membentuk Otot

Biasanya, para pengayuh sepeda memiliki kaki yang kencang. Bagian otot-otot kaki akan bekerja semua untuk membantu mengayuh.Selain kaki, tubuh bagian atas, karena menggenggam kuat besi pengendali juga akan terbentuk dengan sendirinya.

4.Mendorong Energi
http://cipgor.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/cycling.jpg
Sebuah studi yang dipublikasikan di jurnal Psychotherapy and Psychosomatics menemukan bahwa bersepeda menaikkan level energi sebanyak 20 persen dan mengurangi kelelahan hingga 65 persen. Mengapa? Karena bersepeda memicu otak untuk mengeluarkan neurotransmitter dopamine, yang berhubungan dengan energi. Tak perlu menggenjot sepeda dengan penuh tenaga. Para relawan yang mengayuh dengan kecepatan rendah tapi rutin (setidaknya 3 kali seminggu) bisa memerangi kelelahan

5.Aman untuk Sendi

Bersepeda banyak menekan lutut, pergelangan kaki, dan tulang belakang ketimbang berjalan kaki atau bersepeda. Agar aman bersepeda, pastikan bahwa lutut Anda hanya tertekuk sedikit (sekitar 25 derajat) setiap kali mengayuh. Jika kaki terlalu lurus atau terlalu tertekuk, coba atur kembali letak tempat duduk Anda

6.Setiap Otot Merasakan Manfaatnya
http://www.visitgarda.com/Upload/cms/400_x/Mountain%20bike%20sul%20Lago%20di%20Garda.jpg
Coba cari bukit kecil yang membutuhkan waktu sekitar 10 menit untuk didaki dengan sepeda. Lewati bukit itu setidaknya 2-3 kali, dengan posisi kayuh sambil berdiri. Mengayuh dengan posisi berdiri akan melatih otot bagian tengah tubuh dan trisep.

7.Melindungi Jantung

Penyakit jantung merupakan salah satu pembunuh wanita yang paling terutama. Dalam sebuah studi, para peneliti meminta 32 responden wanita untuk mengendarai sepeda setidaknya setengah jam sehari, tiga kali seminggu. Setelah setahun, diketahui bahwa tekanan darah para wanita ini menurun, begitu pula dengan angka kolesterol, dan secara signifikan meningkatkan kebugaran mereka. Carilah lokasi bersepeda yang bisa ditempuh dalam waktu 30 menit tanpa berhenti, sehingga Anda bisa mempertahankan kecepatan yang konsisten.

Kota Wina, Jantung Musik Dunia

Jantung Musik Dunia :
Tahukah Anda di mana kota musik dunia? Jawabannya adalah Wina, ibukota Austria. Tak ada satu kota pun yang bisa menyaingi lantunan musik klasik, jazz, waltz, pop, rock, hingga progressive yang bergema di tiap sudut kota.

Bagi Kota Wina, musik adalah oksigen. Wina tanpa musik adalah bumi tanpa hujan, pantai tanpa sinar mentari. Musisi dan komponis kelas wahid pernah tinggal di sini, sebut saja Ludwig van Beethoven yang menghabiskan sisa hidupnya dalam keadaan tuli. Wina adalah destinasi wajib, sekaligus impian, para traveler pecinta musik.

Coba sebutkan genre musik favorit Anda, maka Wina punya tempat untuk tiap jenis dan aliran. Mulai dari musik klasik hingga pop, rock, dan progressive, suara musik mengalun dari bulan pertama hingga terakhir. Bahkan, mengutip situs resmi Kota Wina pada Jumat (4/5/2012), ada sekitar 300 pertunjukan musik yang digelar tiap tahun. Itu berarti, pertunjukan musik berlangsung hampir tiap hari!

Bagi traveler pecinta musik klasik, Kota Wina adalah harga mati. Musikverein dan Vienna Konzerthaus adalah dua tempat untuk menikmati konser musik klasik ala bangsawan Eropa. Atau, Viennese Concert Cafe di mana Anda menikmati alunan piano Waltz King dan Johann Strauss sambil menyeruput teh dan menyendok Apple Strudel.

Tak ubahnya musik klasik, pertunjukan opera pun bertebaran di seluruh penjuru kota. Para traveler bisa menyambangi Theater an der Wien atau Vienna State Opera yang mewah. Satu pertunjukan yang tak boleh terlewat adalah Marionette Theater, tahu kan, pertunjukan boneka kayu seperti Pinokio itu? Anda bisa menonton Marionette Theater di Schonbrunn Palace, menyuguhkan lagu Magic Flute karya Mozart dan On The Beautiful Blue Danube karya Johann Strauss.

Traveler pecinta musik Jazz pasti menemukan denyut nadinya di kota ini. Wina menjadi tuan rumah festival jazz internasional seperti Vienna Jazz Festival dan Vienna Blues Spring. Kota kelahiran pianis Friedrich Gulda dan komponis Joe Zawinul ini punya sebuah klub jazz tertua yaitu Jazzland, yang telah buka lebih dari 30 tahun lalu.

Sementara itu, para penggemar musik pop dan rock akan disuguhkan konser musik live yang tak terlupakan. Dua tempat yang jadi persinggahan para musisi pop-rock adalah Vienna Stadthalle dan The Flex. Tempat yang disebut pertama itu punya bangunan berkonsep minimalis-modern yang megah, serta pernah jadi tempat "hinggap" Bryan Adams, Diana Krall, juga David Garrett. Sementara The Flex adalah tempat konser indoor yang penuh pencahayaan artistik. Tempat ini jadi pilihan Jamie Cullum dan Alice Cooper ketika menyanyi di depan audiens Kota Wina.

Orang Indonesia Asli Mendirikan Pabrik Tempe Di Jepang


Terlahir di kota kecil Grobogan, Jawa Tengah ternyata tidak menyurutkan semangat juang Rustono (43) untuk meraih mimpi besarnya. Siapa sangka bila seorang mantan bell boy Hotel Sahid Yogyakarta ini sekarang bisa sukses merintis usaha tempe di negeri sakura (Jepang) serta mendapatkan gelar khusus yakni The King of Tempe.

Meskipun bisnisnya kini telah berkembang dengan pesat, namun perjalanan suksesnya dalam membangun usaha tempe tidaklah semulus apa yang kita bayangkan. Setelah memutuskan untuk menuntut ilmu di Akademi Perhotelah Sahid pada tahun 1987, Ia kemudian merintis karirnya sebagai seorang bell boy di Hotel Sahid Yogyakarta hingga bertahun-tahun lamanya. Pengalaman inilah yang kemudian mempertemukan Rustono dengan seorang wanita asli Jepang bernama Tsuruko Kuzumoto, yang kini telah dipersunting sebagai istrinya.

Di tahun 1997, Rustono memutuskan untuk hijrah ke Kyoto, Jepang untuk melanjutkan hidup baru bersama istri tercintanya. Dari sinilah perjuangan Rustono mulai dirintis dari awal. Ia bekerja di beberapa perusahaan Jepang mulai dari perusahaan sayur-mayur higga perusahaan roti yang semuanya menuntut ketelitian dan tanggungjawab cukup besar dari para karyawannya. Rustono yang saat itu berprofesi sebagai seorang karyawan, mendapatkan banyak ilmu dari masyarakat di negeri matahari terbit tersebut, baik dari perilaku hidup sehari-hari maupun dari segi etos kerja para karyawan yang relatif cukup tinggi.


Awal Merintis Usaha Tempe

Berbekal pengalaman dan pengetahuannya di beberapa sektor industri, hati kecil Rustono mulai terdorong untuk membuka peluang bisnis baru yang belum pernah ada sebelumnya di Negara Jepang. Terinspirasi dari makanan nato (sebangsa makanan dari kedelai yang rasanya sangat khas orang Jepang), ayah dari Noemi Kuzumoto ini mencoba menekuni sektor bisnis makanan dan membuat tempe dengan sedikit pengetahuan yang pernah Ia ketahui.

Proses trial and error Ia jalani kurang lebih selama empat bulan, bahkan Ia rela pulang ke Indonesia selama tiga bulan hanya untuk belajar membuat tempe yang lezat dari 60 pengrajin tempe di seluruh Pulau Jawa. Kuatnya tekad dan semangat Rustono untuk terus belajar memproduksi tempe, akhirnya membuahkah hasil manis sehingga Ia berhasil membuat tempe yang lezat dengan bantuan ragi dari Indonesia, dan memanfaatkan sumber mata air di sekitar kediaman mertuanya.

Setelah berhasil memproduksi tempe dengan sempurna, ternyata masih banyak kendala usaha yang dihadapi oleh Rustono. Salah satunya yaitu mengenai izin produksi di Negara Jepang yang cukup rumit (harus melalui berbagai tahap penelitian dan tes), serta kendala iklim alam yang kurang bersahabat karena memiliki kelembapan udara kurang dari 60%, sehingga proses fermentasi tempe tidak bisa berjalan maksimal tanpa bantuan peralatan khusus yang bisa menjaga kestabilan cuaca.

Semua kendala tersebut dijadikannya sebagai sebuah tantangan baru, hingga pada akhirnya Ia berhasil mengantongi perizinan dari pemerintah setempat dan memasarkan produk tempenya dengan merek Rusto Tempeh yang dilengkapi dengan ilustrasi gambar suasana kehidupan kampung di Pulau Jawa. Dengan memanfaatkan kemasan produk 200 gram, sekarang ini kapasitas produksi Rusto Tempeh bisa mencapai 16.000 bungkus setiap lima hari. Ia memasarkan produk tempenya hampir ke seluruh kota di Jepang, baik di perusahaan jasa boga, rumah makan vegetarian, toko swalayan, sekolah-sekolah, hingga ke beberapa rumah sakit di Fukuoka.

Kerja keras dan semangat juang Rustono di negeri sakura, kini telah terbayar dengan keberhasilan usaha tempe yang Ia rintis. Bila dulunya usaha tempe Rustono dijalankan di rumah kecilnya, kini suami Tsuruko Kuzumoto ini telah membangun pabrik tempe di kawasan pinggir hutan yang bermata air dan memanfaatkan lahan seluas 1.000 meter2. Semoga kisah pengusaha sukses dari Grobogan, Jawa Tengah ini memberikan manfaat bagi para pembaca dan menginspirasi seluruh lapisan masyarakat untuk segera memulai usaha. Maju terus UKM Indonesia dan salam sukses.
