Favorite Darling Girl

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

I'll teach you how to hold me babe
Talk to me it's easy but
What could be easier than dreaming?
When I wake up you're the one I'm seeing!

Malayo pa ang biyahe ko
Ang layo pa ng bahay mo
Hanggang tuhod na ang luha
at stuck pa rin sa kalsada

But I'm always within reach
In every form of speech
Hold me to this
Hold me

Try and try I'm trying to
Let you know that this will do
Wala ka nang dapat isipin
Wala ka nang dapat sabihin

Yeah holding you is easy just
promise me it's easy to
remember what we're hearing...
It's the sound of my tires screeching yeah!

Ilang ulit na ba tayong
muntikan nang maglaho
Let it ring it could be louder...
This feeling shouldn't be considered sober yeah!

I'll teach you how to hold me babe
Talk to me it's easy but
What could be easier than dreaming?
Kung Ikaw ang laging kapiling!

This Feeling Shouldn't Be Considered Sober (Demo)

高校生のころ路上で歌っていた曲。

恋しくて

lyrics:

i might have overthought again
i might have overthought again
i've been stuck inside scenarios
they were really that bad
everyone looks to the future, wish i could do that
and i'm so tired of everything but i'm scared of death
and you know
i hope GOD forgives me for being a stupid big mess
every stupid thought i have i put inside of my head like a stash
i should use my time on things that i really should do
but i just see the world ending, and there's nothing i can do

i overthought again

honey go to sleep
it's getting late
do you intend to wait
for the sun
'cause if you're scared of the dark
you can tell me
and i can hold your hand
til you're dreaming

don't be so scared or i'll be too
i'm only tough when i'm with you

honey go to sleep
it's for your health
be good to yourself
once in a while
and if you shake at the thought of tomorrow
i can hold your hand
til it's alright

don't be so scared or i'll be too
i'm only tough when i'm with you

go to sleep

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

Anymore

Actually, i challenged myself to make a song and upload something immediately. i finished the song yesterday in less than an hour [ 11 / 01 / 17 ] and recorded everything today.

Take me out of here.
Let me feel the rain touch my skin till i lose my body warmth.
The wind will drift me back to space
as i slowly throw away the weights
and leave them in the past.

Won't you distract me from the trash this world owns?
Won't you help me shake it off and rebuild my bones?
You could always start over from scratch
again and again.

It's tiring,
but for you i can.
i'm trying
to remove the stains in my hands.

Well, you saved me from myself.
i was looking at the sky and i thought about how lucky i am.
Now that you're here,
well, i think there's still hope within this world.

Won't you run with me and make things okay?
i really hope that none of our feelings would change.
You're the peace i find even when there's still noise
Cos i finally found my will to live.

For you, i'll stop harming myself.
For you, i'll keep living.

willingness to continue

last night i saw you on tv
yr still wearing the same shirt
yr new haircut sucks
but i'll love you anyway 

where have you been these days
don't get hit by the train 
i hope yr liking the rain 

last night i saw you in my dream
you said you wanted to talk 
i took a step back
i didn't say a word
