Sea Of Trees

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

Waltz Of Four Left Feet

It could be said that Up Dharma Down’s “Indak” had the distinct pleasure of humanizing misguided affection or infidelity the same way the late Bodgie Dasig ached his heart on the drunken karaoke staple “Sana Dalawa Ang Puso Ko”, evoking resigned melancholy that isn’t driven by guilt, but by the inability to let go of both persons of interest. It’s a hauntingly beautiful ballad that anchors us towards moments of reverence and isolation, flowering into something fragile and bleak, yet hopeful in its insistence to find the answers in a slow dance, in the hush-hush glimpses shared in the most intimate of spaces.

Peryodiko’s “Tayo Lang Ang May Alam” was written by Vin Dancel as a response to Up Dharma Down’s “Indak.” While both bands have shown mastery in tackling the woes of broken hearts, Peryodiko’s portrait of a relationship undergoing terminal decay, feels more like a slow-motion punch to the chest. “Tayo Lang Ang May Alam” is in fact, light in execution and relaxed in feel; but its pain, like Dassig’s “Dalawa Ang Puso Ko” and Dharma”s “Indak” is the type that is too strong to be easily washed away. When Dancel sings, “Tayo lang ang may alam / nandoon sa pagitan ng paalam at pahiram”, you can feel the world crumbling into pieces as the Peryodiko ringleader tries to mask his feelings in smoke; in denial that he might have been taken for a ride. It hurts hearing it from Dancel, especially from someone whose vocal affectations come from a very sincere place. Add this to your #laslas playlist and join the pity party. Listen:

Unstable

How long will you keep it inside
You run away and find a place to hide
You can always hide under the sheets
Lay it down, it's all we need

We are unstable
But we are inseparable
We are unstable
But we are, we are

How long will you keep me outside
You don't even know what's on my mind
I could be yours, you could be mine
Together we'll find our time

Let's work it out
We're gonna work it out

You’re not the only one I’ve been absent from

And you go on about how what I figured out was wrong
Because it wasn’t part of your plan all along

Why do you make me feel so bad
If you want me to come back

All I know I wouldn’t ask of you what you wouldn’t do for me

So many streets and only one of me
We're drowning in a big city and there's only one of me

Manila's a Trap

you with your headphones on 
i thought i saw
some trace of january's warmth 
on your favorite t-shirt

how it made me wonder why 
you never swing by 
anymore
by my door

you and your tired eyes
now i see in pictures
has it really been this while
since i held you close to me

oh these things are changing fast
some never really last
it happens all the time 
and you've got to make yourself feel fine

Hey baby baby, it's been so long
For a second, I thought you had gone
But I always had something on my mind
If I asked you, would you say that you tried?

It's too soon to say that I'm sure
And you're not easily swayed by words anyway

Don't you know? 
I can't keep waiting without knowing what's the deal
So it goes,
And people keep talking without saying what they feel

Just let me know when it's real

Hey baby baby, when you called
I assumed that you knew it all
Thought I spelled it out as clear as day
For me to get to you, what should I say?

Maybe my intentions seem blurred,
And you're not easily swayed by words anymore

(Stop overthinking)
Just let me know when it's real
(You can't change the feeling)
Just let me know when it's real

And my heart's got to decide
I can't keep it inside
And you can't change my mind no more

And people keep on talking without ever saying whatever they truly feel

Let Me Know When It's Real - Ilang Ylang-Ylang?
