TwoMinutesHate – Call That A Comeback

Ada yang ganjil dari lagu yang mengajak berjoget sambil merindukan kambuh. TwoMinutesHate, kuartet pop punk asal Norwegia, meracik Call That A Comeback dengan resep paling manis untuk isi yang paling getir.

Drumnya kering dan tajam, tanpa basa-basi. Gitar menebal di belakang, riff-nya terus menyetir. Bas berdenyut rapat di bawah semuanya. Bait datang dengan gelisah, lalu chorus terbuka lebar dan meledak, memberi kita sedetik bernapas sebelum dihajar lagi. Vokalnya sengau, agresif, tanpa polesan. Kepala mengangguk duluan, otak menyusul belakangan.

Lalu liriknya masuk. Si tokoh sudah membayar tagihan, makan teratur setahun penuh, akhirnya dipercaya orang-orang terdekatnya. Hidupnya sehat-tapi-sengsara. “But I miss the comfort of my breakdowns”, nyanyinya. Kita ikut berteriak sebelum sadar apa yang barusan kita teriakkan.

Menjelang akhir, ia menyebut judulnya sendiri. Call That A Comeback, lengkap dengan keset selamat datang.

Lirik Lagu TwoMinutesHate – Call That A Comeback

I'm looking forward to my next relapse

I'm so exhausted, but I can't relax

I'm doing good and everybody's so proud

But I miss the comfort of my breakdowns


It's 2pm and I've been up for hours

Just had breakfast at the mall again

I'm off my meds and that's not a bad thing


Yeah, I remember the last time I showered

It's been a while since I ghosted all my friends

Keep reminding myself "that's a GOOD thing"


Yeah, life's never been this swell

But I just can't help...



Looking forward to my next relapse

I'm so exhausted, but I can't relax

I'm doing good and everybody's so proud

But I miss the comfort of my breakdowns
I'll collapse
 Sooner or later, that is just a fact

Under the weight of all these expectations

I am suffocating 



Bills paid, now I get nothing but scam calls

My best mates are muting their phones after nightfall

They finally trust me, and that's not a bad thing

I've eaten, like, every day for a full year

Kinda sad how I've never been better

Tell myself it's okay to be boring 


Yeah, I've never been this well

But I just can't help... 



Looking forward to my next relapse

I'm so exhausted, but I can't relax

I'm doing good and everybody's so proud

But I miss the comfort of my breakdowns

I'll collapse 
Sooner or later, that is just a fact

Under the weight of all these expectations

I am suffocating



I'm looking forward to their awkward stares

All the words said in the silence shared

Can't fucking wait to disappoint them all

I know they're waiting to pick up that call

"Is it the cops or just the hospital?"

Feels like they're never gonna let that go

The crushing weight of all these expectations

Like they're always waiting... 


For my next relapse

I'm so exhausted and I can't relax

Just keep my mouth shut, everybody's so proud

I am terrified, I'm such a let-down

I will crack

Call that a comeback, get the welcome mat

It's just the weight of all these expectations 

I am suffocating
