The Script – Six Degrees of Separation (Arti Lagu)

Lagi-lagi saya jatuh cinta dengan lagu dengan tema yang serupa. Kali ini lagu yang saya suka adalah Six Degrees of Separation by The Script. Lagu bercerita tentang usaha yang dilakukan oleh seseorang yang patah hati untuk melupakan sang mantan. Sekeras apapun dia berusaha, banyangan sang mantan tetap saja terbayang-bayang dalam benaknya. Mungkin butuh waktu yang lebih lama untuk bisa melupakannya, dan itu butuh waktu yang tak tahu kapan akan berhasil untuk melupaknnya.

Saya paling suka bagian yang ini :

First, you think the worst is a broken heart

What’s gonna kill you is the second part

And the third, Is when your world splits down the middle

And fourth, you’re gonna think that you fixed yourself

Fifth, you see them out with someone else

And the sixth, is when you admit that you may have fucked up a little

Menurut saya, bagian ini berbicara tentang ceklist yang dilakukan ketika sedang patah hati. Mencari-cari apa yang salah dari hubungannya dan mencari-cari kenapa sulit untuk melupakannya. Selain itu, dia juga berusaha bagaimana caranya agar bisa 'balikan' dengan sang mantan. 

Bagian ini seakan menceritakan berapa skala yang dia dapatkan ketika sedang berada dalam kondisi broken heart. Dari skala 1-10, skala berapakah rasa sakit yang dirasakannya? sakit, sangat sakit, terluka, mati rasa, atau ingin menyerah saja?
