AND WILL UR PICTURES STOP MY HEART AGAIN SO BAD I LIGHT A CIGARETTE?!?!!

dahlia

im in my childhood country but i dont remember what happened here
up until i was six even then i 
depend on pictures to tell me if
what i went through was real

but i know i dreamt of being older
and living out all my dreams
like ending world hunger or at least starring in some big theater play
i mean, i still dream of doing it all today

who wouldve thought i'd be me now
kinda sad it'll go to waste

cause the worlds gonna be so bad when im older
dont need to be psychic to know that
must be why i like movies from the 2000s
so my eyes are only ever looking back

if i hear "you've got potential" one more goddamn time, i'm gonna scream
they tell me i've got time, i think they mean: sentence to pay, then ask me
where do i see myself in five years from today

god, can i just be my best self now
or else it's all gonna go to waste

cause the worlds gonna be so bad when im older
dont need to be psychic to know that
everyday something crashes, only leading to the planet's inevitable collapse

there was some anticommunist prop in the bookstore
read a book or be judged by the good lord
(lord) if your plans for me are apocalypse when i'm 20, then i don't want it 
daily spams from an anti-vax auntie
telling me what the chemicals will make me
i'm betting on her word i'll be a robot hybrid by 2030
people say it's been a different world lately,
as if it even changed at all since the 40's
then we say "take me back", crying laughs, watch the daily death on a screen
watch it all die on a screen
watch them all die from our screens
watch the world die from our screens
i watch it all die
die die die die die

not saying there's no reason for living
but things will go to waste someday

is the world even gonna be there when i'm older
i'd be more scared if the answer's yes
cause that means doing something about the state of things
and i'm really not up for doing all that
but i'll roll up my sleeves

so bad when I'm older - Japanese Surplus

lyrics:
alam mo bang hindi 
nakatulog kagabi? 
sa kaiisip ng
matalino street siguro
tayo nagmeet 
kailan ba mauulit?

alam mo bang hindi
nakakain ang hikbi? 
muli nang managinip
at tayo'y tutungo 
sa qc o dulo
ng iyong trip
kailan ba mangyayari?

tahan na
'wag mangamba	
mow's, hindi nga?

alam mo bang hindi
matatapos ang gabi?
kung 'di ka makapiling sa
kowloon house
in thoughts and sounds
we'll cross our hearts
tayo lang palagi

akin ka
'gang umaga
sa que ave na
ang end sinta
mow's, hindi nga?

alam mo ba (mow's, hindi nga?)

will i still love you in the spring?
cause my heart's got lots to give
or will you let it wilt away?
color my world, then leave it grey

will your picture stop my heart again
so bad i light a cigarette
then i summon my ancestors
who shame me for how down bad i am

will you be aching for my presence
the way you crane your neck for a kiss
from the summer sun to your skin

sorry for all this talk of seasons
i just fear for a future where you wont be familiar with my name

will you still like me in the spring?
does your heart have room to spare?
if/when you thirst for tenderness
know that my spring's for you to rest in
dive in

will you feel so unreal to me
i reach out for your hand
when you hold it back
feels like i'm finally running my fingers thru some grass

and it won't feel like the first time
ever again, but i'm fine with that
just as long as you want me for the next

cause you can bet that i'll still want you
but if my spring of love's a bit too big
for you to swim in

you can tell me, like we practiced
better to quit while we're ahead

but if i still love you in the spring
when my heart's got more to give
please don't let it wilt away
please don't let it wilt away

(happy holy week. this is a worship song.)

told me that he made you question
if you're someone who could ever be loved
let me tell you that everyone who knows you
feels the pull to love you so naturally, like gravity

i know your mind is heavy
you feel stuck, but you’re exactly where you wanna be
and i would hate to be a part of all the complicated shit
so just hear me out plain and simply

don’t you worry, my love
i know this isn’t how it’s supposed to go
but don’t you know?
it wouldn’t kill us to break the rules

at least for tonight
so hold me close
then when the morning comes, let me go
but for now let me have
the honor to warm your soul

your eyes shine like the Second Coming
come on over, the guilt's worth laying by your side

wouldn’t you like some company while waiting
for your eyes to see yourself the way i see you through mine?

i’m selfish, you already knew that
you’re curious, won’t you give in for a minute?

trace the ink on my skin, again and again
i’ve been coveting your fingers on my chest

so if i’m your moment of weakness
have it then let it pass
cross my heart, it won’t be the death of us
come on, satiate my "what ifs"

the veil is lifted and i want you underneath
i open up fast, you make it so easy
tell yourself "it’s just a one time thing"
"you’re only human" so you wake me when you leave

don’t you worry, my love
i have no want to tie you down with rope
just know
there’s no doubt that your'e someone who
could be loved, you’re worthy of
all the love coming toward you

i want you to want you,
i'll love you way past til you love you
i want you to want you,
i'll love you way past til you love you

unceremoniously - Japanese Surplus

di na namamansin c idol😱

you were my whole fucking world
for one second
granted, i didn’t let you know
not directly

but you couldn’t read the signs
you had so many chances
i had so many chances
but we never crossed the line
yeah and now i regret it
oh i so regret it

and how can you act like
i’m nobody?
still think about you sometimes
so save me the shame and think about me too

kinda sad, i still search for you in pictures
feels like i'll point u out in crowds for forever

and we're not competing
but if we were
i'd be an olympian
you'd be caught dead slacking off

maybe you could try catching up
but it’s not like u want to
pathetic, i still want you to

c’mon man, spare me a thought
you know that i still exist, right?
love to know if i still cross your mind

you had so many chances
i had so many chances
is it delusion
if you said you loved me too?

you know i still that exist right?
love to know if i’m still on your mind
even though, i'd do nothing
knowing the insanity was mutual would satisfy

and how can you act like
i’m nobody? 
still think about you sometimes

would it be so insane?
no way it was just me
so save me the shame

 and think about me... too

save me the shame - Japanese Surplus

o mahal, kay tagal na ako'y bumubulong sa hangin
na wag sayangin ang paghihintay at pagiipon ng aking bibig
na balang araw ay maisisigaw ko ang aking pagmamahal

at mamaos man ay hindi problema
kung ang dulo ng tinig ko 
ay mahahanap ang bisig mo

ikaw na ba ang pinagiipunan ng boses ko?
sana nga, sana nga, sana nga

o mahal, kay tagal
nang lumilibot ang aking mga mata
nang huminto sila sa'yo
natagpuan ang tunay na pahinga at hindi na lumingon pa

kahit ang araw ay pabor sa'yo
gayang-gaya nya ang pagkintab ng iyong pagkatao

sa iyong paningin ba ako maliligaw mula ngayon?
sana nga, sana nga, sana nga

o mahal, kay tagal ng puso ko na iyong tangan
ugat nito'y naka ukit na sa mga linya ng iyong palad
at dito'y nakaangkop

noon pa ay nandiyan lang
naghahanda lamang na kumapit
sa puso na saktong magkakasya

akin na ba, akin na ba ang pusong iyon?
sana nga, sana nga, sana nga

huwag na mag tataka
kung hindi na ako titikom pa

at ikalma na ang iyong kaba
ikaw ang paboritong tanawin ng aking mga mata

at kung may mag tatanong man kung nasaan ang aking puso
ang nais kong laging sabihin ay nasa iyong palad

bagama’t hindi ko napansin
aking katawan may mithiin
noong una pang tingin
layunin ng mata ko’y ika’y kilalanin

ang puso ko, sa palad mo
buong tiwala na aalagaan mo
sana ay wag mong bitawan
o ibalik sa akin
sayong sayo na ang puso ko

(sana nga, sana nga, sana nga)
sayong sayo ang puso ko

puso, palad (sana nga) - Japanese Surplus

my love mine all mine - mitski (cover)

“may multo ka mang dinadala
sa iyong mga bulsa
wala akong pakialam,
ako’y kakalabit sa bawat sulok nila
sasamahan kita sa pagbuhat
ng bigat sa ‘yong balikat

hindi ako takot na mahalin ka”

pang ilang buhay ko na ba ito?
‘di ko na mabilang 
ang mga taong dumaan
at piniling hindi ako tignan

ngunit ika’y sakin lumapit
dahan-dahang hinaplos
ang tela kong kupas
at nagiwan ng bulong: 

“may multo ka mang dinadala
sa iyong mga bulsa
wala akong pakialam,
ako’y kakalabit sa bawat sulok nila 
sasamahan kita sa pagbuhat
ng bigat sa ‘yong balikat

hindi ako takot na mahalin ka”

ilan na ba ang pinatay nito?
(nakaka sindak na pag-ibig)
walang kapalit na presyo
madugo’ng aking pinagdaanan
(sa ilalim ng manggas)
may libo-libong galos

at sa lalim ng gabi
may hiling na may makatabi
na hindi tatakbo, ‘di magtatago
‘di pipikit sa kaluluwa na dala ko

at sa isang iglap ika’y dumating
dala ang iyong kasilakan
iyong panata, “di pakikinggan ang
mga husga mula sa kanino man”

“may multo ka mang dinadala
sa iyong mga bulsa
wala akong pakialam,
ako’y kakalabit sa bawat sulok nila 
sasamahan kita sa pagbuhat
ng bigat sa ‘yong balikat

hindi ako takot na mahalin ka”
