In English ...
BURN, BABY, BURN
take out all your pictures from the frames
still your shadow hang around
blurring my vision
cut all your love letters into tiny pieces
still your words play on my mind
crowding my brain
rip all the white sheets of my bedroom
still your scents fill the air
blinding my senses
i can feel you underneath my skin
like a centipede crawling deep,
exploring within
so i pick up the match and throw the gasoline
up the wall, into the floor, and on every corner
as i watch the red and orange flames
swallow up this house where we used to live in
i can feel you slightly start to disappear
and i dance inside the fire
burn ... baby ... burn

In Indonesia ...
NYANYIAN SEMU
Hari ini hanya ada gelap di sini
Aku hilang langkah, hilang akal
Tak lagi kutemui rasa yakin di diri
Asa sudah lenyap, mimpi sudah lebur
Dan kurasa aku sudah hancur
Bersama sisa-sisa debu ruang waktu
Kulihat jam dinding itu bergerak maju
Pelan dan mantap tinggalkan aku
Hidup kini hanya sebuah nyanyian semu
