LYRICS 

Would you send me off
In the state I’m in?
Halfway given up
In the waist deep end

And I must admit
That I’m not sure
Why I’m leaving

As they send me off
To America
Thinking I’m pursuing dreams
That I never had
When I

I want to be free
And I want you with me    
It’s all I care about

If you send me off
And I make it back
Could you promise me
You’d come pick me up?

Even if it’s to lay me down
Beneath the green, green grass
Would you come around
Just to send me off again?

I want to be free
And I want you with me
Oh, a quandary
A quandary

When I go away I’ll miss you
Oh, and I’ll be thinking of you
Every night and day
If you promise me you’d wait
I’ll be saving all my love for you

Now would you send me off?

Send Me Off

Could Be

LYRICS
Is it too late to be honest to you?
We're giving up so soon
I might as well just say I tried the things I thought I knew
Did that matter much to you?

It sure was easy for you
To go on your life
Could I at least just cross your mind
Before you find somebody new?

Could it be?
Could it be?
Could be

Was it ever at all a question in your mind
If we just gave up so soon
No, it don't work even if a million reasons
Would try, I've tried to fight for you
It's your soul sayin' it won't do

But if by chance some room is left 
In your heart
Tidied up, if I knock
Could I hear a word in reply?

Could it be?
Could it be,
Cobey?

Could Be (Demo)

I wrote this song a year ago when I was at the peak of my depression. Since then I've been empowered to share my battles: the ones I didn't win.

This song is an ode to hoping beyond hope, that a momentary loss may be the impetus to winning a war.

LYRICS

Parating na ang araw na inaasahan
Panahon na para talikuran
Ano pa nga ba ang inabangan?
Ilang ulit na ring naiwan

O, paulit-ulit bang parati
And dapithapon at hatinggabi?
Bukang-liwayway, kay ganda niya at kisig
Bakit sa dilim pa rin ang titig?

O, tahan na
Tahan na
Tahan na

Palubog na ang araw ng iyong pighati
Ang mga tala'y tila nag-uumawit
Na may bagong araw na parating
Habang madilim, ika'y matutong manalangin

Kahit paulit-ulit nang parati
Ang dapithapon at hatinggabi
Bukang-liwayway, kay ganda niya at kisig
Bakit sa dilim pa rin ang titig?

O, tahan na
Tahan na
Tahan na

Ang pait ng kahapon balikan
Mga natapong pagkakataon na ay tapos na

Dumating na ang araw na inaasahan
Panahon na para talikuran
Mga pangarap na hanggang panaginip na lamang
At nang mamulat sa katotohanan

At mamangha na sa katotohanan

Tahan Na

Lyrics

Peace that I’d once found only in youth 
An oasis in a desert of souls just passing by
I am sheep for a shepherd who can walk on water too
And in need for a moment of silence that I once knew

When the solace in the wind made me shiver and I heard you
Sing a solitary song in the desert and pull me through

Grace that I’d once known only by heart
Like the one familiar voice keeping myself from bursting apart  
When the night takes forever in laughter in sight of my scars
And the only source of hope is the blankness between the stars

Then the solace in the wind made me shiver and I heard you
Sing a solitary song in the desert and pull me through

Once it all was lost and I was a lost cause
And the sirens were wailing to nail me to my cross
Then the strangest light like a thief in the night
Spared me from deserved murder, and from death gave me life

Where the solace in the wind made me shiver, and I heard you
Sing a solitary song in the desert and pull me through

Now a solitary song makes me shiver, do I hear you
Bring the solace in the wind in this new desert, oh Lord
