Iwan Fals - Lagu dua (Hijau 1992)

Iwan Fals - Aku Ada

Untukmu Negeri

Iwan Fals - Berandal Malam Dibangku Terminal (1986)

Part lullaby, part legend, this track glides like a smooth sheet at midnight. With warm acoustic Americana and soft harmonies, it honors the quiet beauty of the machine that resets the ice — and the soul of the barn.

Zamboni Serenade

🔻 Song Insight
"Animal" is a lyrical execution—sharp, bitter, and final. Part battle cry, part eulogy, it tears through illusion with teeth bared. This isn’t a breakup song. It’s a realization track: the moment the curtain drops and the persona collapses under its own fraudulence.

Structured as a verbal reckoning, “Animal” confronts the myth-making that happens in toxic dynamics—when one person spins stories while the other quietly bleeds behind the scenes. The song’s tone is scathing but measured, never desperate… just done. Like striking a match and letting the whole delusional narrative burn.

🔻 Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Fantasy world you live in,
Delusions dressed as truth—
You rewrote history
To make yourself the proof.

I wish I lived in make-believe
Where everything you say is real.
So naive you must be
To think I’d never feel.

[Chorus]
All is fair in love and war...
But this was never that.
It was a mirror cracked by lies—
A truth you never had.

I could’ve read the leaves,
But let’s be honest:
I was never the reason
You left so thoughtless.

[Verse 2]
You’re not the genius I believed.
I gave you too much grace—
For who I thought you were
And who you couldn’t face.

[Bridge]
Dumpster fire ignorance,
Rail-grade flames—
Hearts gone numb,
Desires untamed.

You’ll either wake up
Or sink in the wreck,
Drowning in your logic
Of what comes next.

[Verse 3]
Never forgiven, never forgotten—
I keep score,
You keep rotting.
Too blind to walk,
Too proud to crawl—
It was never love.
Not at all.

[Outro]
No heart, no weight.
Not worth the crime.
Not worth the date
Or the borrowed time.

Spilled tears, wasted light,
I won’t name you again,
Won’t resurrect the night.
Yesterday’s dreams were never meant—
They died with you
And all you meant.

🔻 Personal Reflection
"Animal" was written during the tail end of denial—the moment where I finally stopped giving the benefit of the doubt and started giving myself back the benefit of clarity.

There’s a rage underneath these lines, yeah… but it’s not just anger. It’s grief that matured into indifference. The hardest part wasn’t losing the relationship—it was realizing I was the only one treating it like it meant anything at all.

This song is about reclaiming reality from someone else’s fiction. About burning down the fantasy house they built in your name—and refusing to ever go back inside.

🔻 4Me2BeFree
In the context of the COTC project, "Animal" is the throat rip. The chapter where love songs die and the storyteller takes the mic back. It's a sonic confrontation, raw with betrayal but restrained with purpose. Every word is a scar sealed in melody. This is what it sounds like when survival no longer needs apology.
