roads
We've got a war to fight,
Never found our way,
Regardless of what they say.
How can it feel, this wrong,
From this moment,
How can it feel, this wrong.
Storm,
In the morning light,
I feel,
No more can I say,
Frozen to myself.
I got nobody on my side,
And surely that ain't right,
Surely that ain't right.
Oh, can't anybody see,
We've got a war to fight,
Never found our way,
Regardless of what they say.
How can it feel, this wrong,
From this moment,
How can it feel, this wrong.
How can it feel this wrong,
From this moment,
How can it feel, this wrong.
Oh, can't anybody see,
We've got a war to fight,
Never found our way,
Regardless of what they say.
How can it feel, this wrong,
From this moment,
How can it feel, this wrong

thought i could rule the world without you by my side
as the world bears down on my shoulders
i find the fear it doesn't subside
where's have you been?
i've been so alone
i don't know how i've lasted this long
you said "the fires won't consume you
and in the rivers you won't drown"
i wish to pause this moment
'cause as i cry i start to realize
what's missing was you
i need you
you give me strength
you take away my fear
there was a void in my heart that only you could fill
---awww dapat ata diko na pinanuod yung video. patay eh.patay! emf! wala nang nangungulit and nakikipag wrestle.tsk.patay talaga.

is this love?
I wanna love you, every day and every night
We'll be together, with a roof right over our heads
We'll share the shelter, of my single bed
We'll share the same room, JAH provide the bread
Is this love, is this love, is this love
Is this love that I am feeling (repeat)
I wanna know, wanna know, wanna know now
I got to know, got to know, got to know now
I'm willing and able
So I throw my cards on your table
I wanna love you and treat you right
I wanna love you, every day and every night
We'll be together, with a roof right over our heads
We'll share the shelter, of my single bed
We'll share the same room, JAH provide the bread
Is this love, is this love, is this love
Is this love that I am feeling (repeat)
Oh yes I know, yes I know, yes I know now (repeat)
I'm willing and able
So I throw my cards on your table
See I wanna love you, I wanna love and treat
You right, I wanna love you, every day and every night
We'll be together, with a roof right over our heads
We'll share the shelter, of my single bed
We'll share the same room, JAH provide the bread
waitng in vain
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love.
From the very first time I rest my eyes on you, girl,
My heart says follow t'rough.
But I know, now, that I'm way down on your line,
But the waitin' feel is fine:
So don't treat me like a puppet on a string,
'Cause I know I have to do my thing.
Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb;
I wanna know when you're gonna come - soon.
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love,
'Cause if summer is here,
I'm still waiting there;
Winter is here,
And I'm still waiting there.

[Guitar solo]

Like I said:
It's been three years since I'm knockin' on your door,
And I still can knock some more:
Ooh girl, ooh girl, is it feasible?
I wanna know now, for I to knock some more.
Ya see, in life I know there's lots of grief,
But your love is my relief:
Tears in my eyes burn - tears in my eyes burn
While I'm waiting - while I'm waiting for my turn,
See!
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love, oh!
I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna -
I don't wanna wait in vain.
I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna -
I don't wanna wait in vain.
No, I don't wanna (I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna -
I don't wanna - I don't wanna wait in vain) -
No I - no I (I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't
wanna - I don't wanna wait in vain) -
No, no-no, I, no, I (I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna -
I don't wanna - I don't wanna wait in vain) -
It's your love that I'm waiting on (I don't wanna - I don't wanna -
I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna wait in vain);
It's me love that you're running from.
It's Jah love that I'm waiting on (I don't wanna - I don't wanna -
I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna wait in vain);
It's me love that you're running from.
oh noes.
I've made up my mind,
Don't need to think it over
If I'm wrong, I am right
Don't need to look no further,
This ain't lust
I know this is love
But, if I tell the world
I'll never say enough
'cause it was not said to you
And that's exactly what I need to do
If I end up with you
[Chorus]
Should I give up,
Or should I just keep chasin' pavements?
Even if it leads nowhere
Or would it be a waste
Even if I knew my place
Should I leave it there
Should I give up,
Or should I just keep chasin' pavements
Even if it leads nowhere
I build myself up
And fly around in circles
Waitin' as my heart drops
And my back begins to tingle
Finally, could this be it
[Chorus]
Or should I give up
Or should I just keep chasin' pavements
Even if it leads nowhere
Or would it be a waste
Even if I knew my place
Should I leave it there
Should I give up
Or should I just keep chasin' pavements
Even if it leads nowhere
Or would it be a waste
Even if I knew my place should I leave it there
Should I give up
Or should I just keep on chasin' pavements
Should I just keep no chasin' pavements
Ohh oh
[Chorus x2]

i wonder
and i wonder if you ever think about me when your bored
and i wonder if you ever think about me when your hangin in new york
and i wonder if you still think bono writes his songs for you
and i wonder if the reasons why you left me were un true
and i wonder if you give him better blow jobs than the ones i got from you
because girl you mean
so much to me
i wish that we
could start it over, start it over
i don't need
your sympathy or apologies
still i'm staring in my coffee cup at six am
and i cannot give up
and i wonder if your happy
or just glad to see me scarred
took my drunken self-confession sober up your bleeding heart
I am bending over backwards to get close to you but still i feel so far
because girl you mean
so much to me
i wish that we
could start it over, start it over
i don't need
your sympathy or apologies
still i'm staring in my coffee cup at six am
and i cannot give up
girl you mean
so much to me
i wish that we
could start it over
i don't need your sympathy or apologies
no more
girl you mean
so much to me
i wish that we
could start it over
start it over
i don't need
your sympathy
i just want you here with me
with me - oh
do do do do do do do do do do
still i'm staring in my coffee cup at six am
and i cannot give up
i will survive
At first I was afraid I was petrified
I kept thinking I could never live without you By my side
But then I spent so many nights
Just thinking how you've done me wrong
I grew strong I learned how to get along
And so you're back From outer space
I just walked in to find you Here with that sad look upon your face
I should have changed my fucking lock
I would have made you leave your key
If I had known for just one second You'd be back to bother me
Oh now go, Walk out the door
Just turn around Now, you're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one Who tried to break me with desire?
Did you think I'd crumble?
Did you think I'd lay down and die?
Oh not I, I will survive
Yeah As Long as I know how to love, I know I'll be alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
I will survive, I will survive Yeah, yeah
It took all the strength I had Just not to fall apart
I'm trying hard to mend the pieces Of my broken heart
And I spent oh so many nights Just feeling sorry for myself
I used to cry, But now I hold my head up high
And you see me With somebody new
I'm not that stupid little person Still in love with you
And so you thought you'd just drop by And you expect me to be free
But now I'm saving all my lovin' For someone who's lovin' me
Oh now go, Walk out the door Just turn around Now, you're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one Who tried to break me with desire?
Did you think I'd crumble?
Did you think I'd lay down and die?
Oh not I, I will survive Yeah
As long as I know how to love, I know I'll be alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
I will survive, I will survive Yeah, yeah Oh no

hangover
Mahirap bumangon,
anong nangyari kahapon?
Pano umabot dito?
kumikirot ang ulo at puso
Sa dinami dami ba naman ng gustong malimutan
Ikaw pa ang naiwan sa puso't isipan
Lumangoy sa alaala mom lumangoy hanggang malunod sa iyo
Kung ang gamot sa aking sakit ay pag-ibig
Akoy ay nauuhaw at ikaw ang aking tubig
Ako'y uhay at ikaw ang aking tubig
Buong araw nahihilo
Ang mundo ay slowmo
Dahan-dahang buksan ang aking mata
Ang sikmura, sumisirko sirko
TAYO
Sandali, alam ko na atang sasabihin mo
Sa ‘sang saglit, maririnig na bang nasa isip mo?…
Pano ba tayo nagkaganito?
Kalian ba nagsimula ang gulo?
Mga araw na lumpias…alin ba dito’ng totoo…
Pano ba lalabanan
Di man lang natin alam ang sanhi
Tikom ang ating mga labi
Kapwa walang masabi
Sa bawat kumpas ng mga sandaling napag-iiwanan
Dati’y di naman ganito
Kathang-isip lamang ba ang gulo?
Mga araw na lumipas..alin ba ditong totoo
Dati’y di naman tayo ganito
Kathang-isip lamang ba ang gulo?
Ang lahat ng di nasabi na di mawari-wari
Parang panaginip…alin ba ditong totoo

been it
Your face is pretty and your life's a toy
Master man
I'm never better than your latest plan
Poor donee
what are you gonna try to be
where are you gonna go without me now
I've been you mother, I've been your father
who can ask me for more
I've been your sister, I've been your mistress
maybe I was your whore
who can ask me for more
Superstar
I've tried to educate your childish heart
I made your bed
and I was in it when your faith was dead
poor donee
what are you gonna try to be
where are you gonna go without me now
Sweetiepie
I'm you personal pro, you know
you know what number to try when to cry
lovefool
you love me no longer, I know
and maybe there is nothing
that I can do to make you do
Mama tells me I shouldn't bother
that I ought just stick to another man
a man that surely deserves me
but I think you do!
So I cry, and I pray and I beg
Love me love me
say that you love me
fool me fool me
go on and fool me
love me love me
pretend that you love me
lead me lead me
just say that you need me
So I cried, and I begged for you to
Love me love me
say that you love me
lead me lead me
just say that you need me
I can't care about anything but you
Lately I have desperately pondered,
spent my nights awake and I wonder
what I could have done in another way
to make you stay
Reason will not reach a solution
I will end up lost in confusion
I don't care if you really care
as long as you don't go
So I cry, I pray and I beg
Love me love me
say that you love me
fool me fool me
go on and fool me
love me love me
pretend that you love me
lead me lead me
just say that you need me
So I cried, and I begged for you to
Love me love me
say that you love me
lead me lead me
just say that you need me
I can't care about anything but you
(anything but you)
Love me love me
say that you love me
fool me fool me
go on and fool me
Love me love me
I know that you need me
I can't care about anything but you

Turning my safety off
I’m turning my safety off
I’m ready to talk to you
Alone
A kiss, a hug, another drink
Puts me right back to
Denial of persistent memory
I’m watching you
Make a fool of you
Over and over again
You can leave the fire open
It’s not dying anyway
It’s not dying anyway
It’s not dying anyway
I’m turning my safety off
Unclasping my guarded moments
For you
Nothing here is apropos
And I’m crying out to saints and sinners alike
I’m giving you all the soul I’ve got
Again and again and again
You can leave the fire open
It’s not dying anyway
It’s not dying anyway
It’s not dying anyway
You can leave the memory open
It’s not dying anyway
It’s not dying anyway
It’s not dying anyway
I’m turning my safety off
I’m ready to fall in love with you
Over & over & over again
