roads

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.

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

i thought i didn't need you
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

is this love?

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)
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;
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.

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.

"Chasing Pavements"

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]

kahit naman na sabi mong wala kang konsepto eh alam ko namang may laman ang sinulat mong sabi mong wala lang talaga na chasing pavements inspired.

sino na ba kaya?

sabihan na lang manhid and torpe and insincere, wag lang sabihing para sa kanya yun.

i wonder

and i wonder if you ever think about me anymore
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

--tf! i missed this song so much! freshman days! woah! one of my fave songs na biglang nawala at di ko na narinig. ngayon lang ult!

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

Baby boy
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

Dear, I fear we're facing a problem
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

Lazy Eyes

I've been waiting
I've been waiting for this moment all my life
But it's not quite right

And this 'real'
It's impossible if possible
At who's blind word
So clear but so unheard

I've been waiting
I've been waiting for this silence all night long
It's just a matter of time

To appear sad
With the same 'ol decent lazy eye
Fixed to rest on you
Aim free and so untrue

Everyone's so intimately rearranged
Everyone can focus clearly with such shine

Everyone's so intimately rearranged
Everyone can focus clearly with such shine

Lost and loaded
Still the same 'ol decent lazy eye
Straight through your gaze
That's why i said i relate
I said we relate
It's so fun to relate

It's the room the sun and the sky
It's the room the sun and the sky

I've been waiting
I've been waiting for this moment...

Closer

You let me violate you
You let me desecrate you
You let me penetrate you
You let me complicate you

Help me; I broke apart my insides
Help me; i've got no soul to sell
Help me; the only thing that works for me
Help me get away from myself

I wanna fuck you like an animal
I wanna feel you from the inside
I wanna fuck you like an animal
My whole existence is flawed

You get me closer to God
You can have my isolation; you can have the hate that it brings
You can have my absence of faith; you can have my everything

Help me tear down my reason
Help me; it's your sex I can smell
Help me; you make me perfect
Help me become somebody else

I wanna fuck you like an animal
I wanna feel you from the inside
I wanna fuck you like an animal
My whole existence is flawed

You get me closer to God
Through every forest, above the trees
Within my stomach, scraped off my knees
I drink the honey inside your hive
You are the reason I stay alive

Perfect Drug

I got my head but my head is unraveling
Can't keep control ca't keep track of where it's traveling
I got my heart but my heart's no good
You're the only one that's understood
I come along but I don't know where you're taking me
I shouldn't go but you reaching back and shaking me
Turn off the sun pull the stars fom the sky
The more I give to you the more I die
And I want you [x4]

You are the perfect drug the perfect drug
The perfect drug, the perfect drug [x2]

U make me hard when I'm all soft inside
I see the truth when I'm all stupid-eyed
The arrow goes straight throught my heart
[Without you everything just falls apart]
My blood just wants to say hello to you
My soul is so afraid to realize
How every little bit is left of me
And I want you [x4]

You are the perftect drug the perfect drug
The perfect drug [x6]

Take me with you
Without you everything just falls apart
It's not as much fun to pick up the pieces

Diamond Eyes

To the edge
Till we all get off
I will take
You away with me
Once and for all

Time will see us realign
Diamonds reign across the sky
Shower me into the same
Realm

Calculate
Ill embrace
Hold on (Come with me now)
Right away
Outer space with me

Time will see us realign
Diamonds reign across the sky
Shower me into the same
Realm
Time will see us realign
Diamonds reign across the sky
I will lead us to the same
Realm

When the coffin shakes
And the needle breaks
Come right away with me
Come on your sick?
Once and for all

Time will see us realign
Diamonds reign across the sky
Shower me into the same
Realm
Time will lead us to the same
Realm
I will lead us to the same
Realm

NO SUCH THING

"Welcome to the real world", she said to me
Condescendingly
Take a seat
Take your life
Plot it out in black and white
Well I never lived the dreams of the prom kings
And the drama queens
I'd like to think the best of me
Is still hiding
Up my sleeve

They love to tell you
Stay inside the lines
That something's better
On the other side

I wanna run through the halls of my high school
I wanna scream at the
Top of my lungs
I just found out there's no such thing as the real world
just a lie you've got to rise above

So the good boys and girls take the so called right track
Faded white hats
Grabbing credits
Maybe transfers
They read all the books but they can't find the answers
And all of our parents
They're getting older
I wonder if they've wished for anything better
While in their memories
Tiny tragedies

They love to tell you
Stay inside the lines
But something's better
On the other side

I wanna run through the halls of my high school
I wanna scream at the
Top of my lungs
I just found out there's no such thing as the real world
Just a lie you got to rise above

I am invincible (x3)
As long as I'm alive

I wanna run through the halls of my high school
I wanna scream at the
Top of my lungs
I just found out there's no such thing as the real world
Just a lie you've got to rise above

I just can't wait til my 10 year reunion
I'm gonna bust down the double doors
And when I stand on these tables before you
You will know what all this time was for

--memories of August 28, 2002 at Light it up, Jekyll n Hyde Taft Ave., Manila. Right across La Salle Taft

Acel Bisa's 25th bday haha!

Three Libras

Threw you the obvious and you flew with it on your back,
A name in your recollection down among the millions there:
Difficult not to feel a little bit disappointed,
And passed over
But I look right through see you naked but oblivious...
But you don't see me

But I threw you the obvious just to see if
There was more behind
The eyes of a fallen angel

eyes of a tragedy

Here I am expecting just a little bit too much from the wounded

But I see, see through it all
See through
See you

Cause I threw you the obvious

to see what occurs behind
The eyes of a fallen angel

eyes of a tragedy oh well
Oh well apparently nothing apparently

Nothing at all
You don't see me
You don't see me at all

Lying on the floor (lying on the floor)
I've come undone

I don't want to destroy your tank-top
Let's be friends and just walk away
It's good to see you lying there in your Superman skivvies
Lying on the floor (lying on the floor)

High and Dry

Two jumps in a week, I bet you think that's pretty clever don't you boy
Flyin' on your motorcycle, watching all the ground beneath you drop
You'd kill yourself for recognition, kill yourself to never ever stop
You broke another mirror, you're turning into something you are not

Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry

Drying up in conversation, you will be the one who cannot talk
All your insides fall to pieces, you just sit there wishing you could still make love
They're the ones who'll hate you when you think you've got the world
all sussed out
They're the ones who'll spit at you. You will be the one screaming out

Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry

Oh It's the best thing that you've ever had
The best thing that you've ever, ever had
It's the best thing that you've ever had
The best thing you've had has gone away

So don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high
Don't leave me high
Don't leave me dry
