Takipsilim

san ko hahanapin ang ating nakaraan?
ala-alang kay tamis at kay saya.
ang aking puso'y umaasa.. nananabik sa yo
di mapigil ang damdaming.. nababaliw sa yo..

aaminin ko,
lahat ng ito,
ay inaalay.. lamang sa iyo
aaminin ko,
na ang buhay ko,
ay walang kulay kung di dahil sa yo
aaminin ko,
tanging ngalan mo,
ang sinisigaw ng damdamin ko..
maghihintay ako...
patawad, di ko maikukubli..
di inaasahang mayro'ng katapusan
sana'y iningatan ang pagkakataon
na noo'y tayo lamang,
at ang bawa't sandali ay
atin lamang.. ito'y alay ko sa yo..

di makapaniwalang.. tapos na
ang lahat sa atin,
at di ka na.. magiging atin
kahit na.. andito pa rin ako...
umaasa...

Carousel (I Miss You)

hey, i thought of you today
i thought that i should tell you
how much i miss you
remember what you used to say
"friends forever, i hope that we'll remain this way.. oh.."

all this time, i've been thinkin' bout the way we used to play\the promises we made..
you're everywhere i go i can't escape you,
when i close my eyes i see you
even in my sleep i think of you.. oh..
i miss you..

can we put the blame on the changing times?
where have all the years gone by?
so fast, so young,
so sure that this will never end
i'll always stand by you, my friend
but forever was just too long..

The Indefinite Transition of Perceived Realities

Well i think it's plain to see
i know you probably heard this tale before
sung a million times

everytime i look at you
i know you feel it too
it's burning a hole inside
like broken glass it cuts you

i know what you believe in
is beautiful unlike your demands

well i'm so impressed
with how you've progressed
into this thing that has taken over you

Life is a wasteland
and you're driving out of control
your life is a wasteland
driving straight into my soul.. tonight

well it has taken me
felt like eternity
colder than your embrace
like an hourglass that's empty

Panaginip Lang

ngayon sa 'king pag-iisa
nahihibang sa kaiisip
kung iiwasan ka,
hahayaan ko na bang
tuluyan nang ibaon sa limot ang ala-ala mo..

at ang lahat ng iyong mga sinabi
sa akin,
maari bang limutin ang nangyari sa atin?

nguni't bago ka lumisan
palayain ako
nguni't bago ka lumisasn
palayain ako

ako pa rin ay nagtatanong
kung meron pang kaunting pag-asang
magkabalikan,
pero ayoko nang maulit pa

sumisigaw, lahat ay sinabi sa 'yo

(ano ang iyong madarama)
kung malaman mong ito'y panaginip lang
(ano ang iyong maiisip)
kung bukas ay di ka na muling gigising pa

A Dreamer's Lullabye

Close your eyes,
come fly away with me
i'll take you to places that you've
never seen, never been before..
i know why,
all the things you've been through
and all the things that hurt you
are eating you alive..

Right here,
with you
is where i wanna be
is where i oughtta be
wipe your tears away
coz right now..
time is on our side
time is on our side

come live another day..

close your eyes and i'll sing you a lullabye
nothing to fear coz i'm right here by your side..

close your eyes,
come fly away with me
i'll take you to places that you've never seen
never been before...

Hiling

Nahihirapan na ang aking isip
nauubusan na ng sasabihin sa iyo..
nanlalamig na ba ang pag-ibig mo sa 'kin..
giliw..

nalilito ako, nais kong sagipin ang ating
nalulunod na pag-ibig
nguni't handa akong palayain ka
kung ito ang 'yong hiling
gaano man kasakit sa akin
ibibgay sa yo
ang tanging pakiusap lang
wag mo akong kalimutan..

kay rami nang nagdaan
na pagsubok sa ting pag-ibig
kakayanin pa kayang mabawi pa
ang mga nasabi nang masasakit na salita..

kung ito ang yong hiling
gaano man kasakit sa akin..
ibibigay sa yo..

nanlalamig na bang pag-ibig mo?

Stillness

Can you look upon your life without regret?
can you look me in the eye and say..
"I know you so well, you can't live to tell,
can't possibly survive coz you don't know how."

you're silence means nothing to me
I am much braver now

what i need to know
am i free to beg?
i sold half my soul
am i free to keep the other half?
and i know you're trying to justify
you say i am the one who's damned
well, free your wretched eyes
hatred is blinding you
look at me now
am i as damned as you?

i hear you whispering in my ear
you smiled at me and then you said:
"i know you so well, you can't live to tell
cant possibly survive coz you don't know how."

what you need to know
you are free to lie
you sold half my soul
and now you want the other half
and i know you're trying to justify
say i am the one to blame
well, free your clouded mind
your anger is deafening you
look at me now..
am i as dead as you?

Tala

Ang 'yong tala ay nagniningning
walang kupas ang kinang
ng iyong bituwin
mula sa lupa, di mapantayan
sa kalangitan, tanging liwanag mo
ang natatanaw

ngunit bakit my pait?
sa iyong mga ngiti?
nakalimutan mo na ba?

hiram ang bawat saglit
daanin mo sa iyak ang lahat ng pait

ang 'yong tala ay nagdidilim
kumukupas ang kinang
ng iyong bituwin

Waiting for a sign

screaming in the dark
you try to gasp for air
invisible at times
you start to notice
you sit and stare
waiting for a sign

can you see?
far beyond your imagination
in your dreams
lie the meaning of your existence

you start to twist and turn
you've got nowhere to run
your eyes are getting tired

when will you understand?
everything you see is temporary
this is what we have
we're just passing by... just passing by...

waiting for a sign

Porcelain / Sunrise

you with the marble eyes
fragile with porcelain bones
you look at the stars and you wonder why
are you as hungry as i?
(yesterday's news but still new to me)

i can't see me
or someone i used to be
i can't see you now
or someone who used to be you
are you someone new?
are you someone i used to know?
have you been there before?
have you seen me before?

when was the last time you cried
i think it was centuries ago
a stake through the heart
and sunrise will keep you away
