recorded in 2004 when very very drunk on beer and cough syrup. enjoi! 

lyrics:


You say, “Roll up the windows, so we can hear only ourselves.”
And you call me by a name that you call nobody else
So this must be what it’s like when two minds meet
Still, we’re standing on opposite ends of a one-way street

You let me in and you swallowed me whole
You let me in and you swallowed me whole

So I remind you of a song that’s been swimming in your head
And you looked, saw I was drowning in you, and you hesitated
I know it’s not your fault that you make sense and make me laugh
And I know that if you go away, I wouldn’t break in half, but

You let me in and you swallowed me whole
You let me in and you swallowed me whole

And I don’t know what you mean when you say I come naturally to you
Sweeter words were never spoken, but they’re too good to be true
A dream to self-destruct has found me


You let me in and you swallowed me whole
You let me in and you swallowed me whole


Doubting Thomas (Sabaw Obotro Mix)

recorded in Alaska, Kusangloob Tondo 2004. enjoi!

lyrics:

you walked in
intrepidly
and you said you were 
looking for me
but i was gone
long before
anybody'd 
opened the door

i know how fleeting
the good things in life are
and how you can only 
make them last if you let go
somebody please give me
something new to do
tell me something
i don't already know

you walked out
in a hurry
slammed into a wall
you were too blind to see
now i can't
help you with that
you're bleeding, my friend
well, that's just too bad

i know how fleeting
the good things in life are
and how you can only
make them last if you let go
somebody please give me
something new to do
tell me something
i don't already know

woke up on the wrong 
side of the bed
i should be mad at me
but i hate you instead
come near all you want
but you know how i get
don't get upset
if you get hit 
'cause i'm seeing red

i'm seeing red

Wake Up (Lola Bones Mix)

recorded at Alaska, Kusang Loob Tondo when drunk and midnight blue with lots and lots of ate vee

lyrics: 


push
push all the light we know
push until we can't push no more

how do we leave all this fire behind?
far away in the attic of our minds
how...
how do we go circling around

how we get around
love
and all the pain?
more than you 
know your own name

tell me,
how do we lose
everything we've found?
silence our souls
until our souls
know no sound

nobody
nobody please come too near
i am not here
i love you all
but the girl you love
has long since disappeared

how do we lose
everything we've found?
how do we get around

our love
and all the pain?

more than you know your own name




Push (Lola Bones Mix)

a 2009 collaboration CAMOI X PASTA GROOVE (Paolo Garcia) 

on his album "The Disktinktive Sounds of Pasta Groove"


lyrics:
sino 'tong babaeng kausap ko sa salamin?
suot nya mukha ko at ang angas makatingin
kahit anong sisid ko 'di ko sya maalala
sabi niya 'ikaw ako, ika'y ako, di mo na ba ako kilala?'

paglingon ko sa kaliwa andun pa rin sya
paglingon ko sa kanan aba'y andun pa rin sya
aninong sinlinaw
kambal ko sa ilaw
iisa lang daw kami
iisa lang daw

bakit mo 'ko kinalimutan?
bakit mo 'ko iniwan?
kailan ka huling nagpakita?
kailang ka huling sumipa?
(sisid mata)
kailan ka huling lumiyab ng malaya
kailang ka huling pumayag mawala ka
magwala ka
mawala ka
kailan ka huling nagpakita
kailan ka huling sumipa

'di kita maalala
kailan ka huling lumiyab ng malaya
sino ka ba
sumuot mo aking mata, aking ilong, aking bunganga
magpakilala ka

(ngunit 'di kita kilala)
'di kita maalala
sabi niya 'ako ikaw. ika'y ako. iisa lang tayo'

bakit mo 'ko kinalimutan?
'di mo na ba 'ko kailangan?

dito na lang ba ako

Sisid Mata (Pasta Groove ft. Camoi)

a 2009 remake of the Hotdog classic

CAMOI X PASTA GROOVE X KAT AGARRADO

on the album "The Disktinktive Sounds of Pasta Groove"

lyrics:

sa buhay nating mga babae
kay raming lalaking magdaraan
may malilikot ang kamay
may manloloko
may napakayaman
may probinsiyano
ngunit sa dinami-dami nila
iisang lalaki lamang 
ang kailanma'y 'di malilimutan

mahirap limutan ang una sa lahat
ang una mong minahal, ang una mong lalaki
tulad ng isang magandang awitin
siya'y nananatili sa iyong pag-iisip
'di mapakawalan
'di ka patutulugin
maging sa panaginip
siya'y nasisilip
kinukumutan ka ng kanyang pag-ibig
magiging pangangailangan
ang makapiling siya
ang kinabukasan mo'y
bahala na

mahirap limutan ang una sa lahat
ang una mong minahal
ang una mong lalaki
kay daling matutunan ang umibig ng iba
maaaring ang puso mo ay mabihag din nila
ngunit napakahirap talaga
mahirap limutin
ang una sa lahat
ang una mong minahal
ang una mong lalaki
mahirap limutin
ang 
una
sa
lahat

ta da da da da.... 

Una Sa Lahat (Pasta Groove ft. Kat Agarrado & Camoi)

a 2012 collaboration CAMOI X RED-I

on the Red-I album "Jahdgement Day"


lyrics:

of all the things i've seen
from grey to green and everything in between
the question stands:
what do they mean?

what if i spend my days and days
lost in you, and lost in space

let's forget the many ways
the world can overtake
what we have, what we are
we could soar so far
we could soar so far
we could soar so far
we could just be what we are

make a beeline for your bliss
beseech it like you would a lover's kiss
and it don't get any better than this
truth is you can have me as you wish

you can have me as you wish

what if i spend my days and days
lost in you and lost in space

what if i spend my days and days
lost in you and lost in space

Lost In Space (Red-I ft. Camoi)

FOR THE OFFICIAL VIDEO: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJbCbVew_9U

All day long
I tell my sadness, “Welcome home.”
Take refuge in my heart it does
I’ve forgotten what an art it was
To take finite joys with finite relief
Oh, I am at your feet

Are you still there, boy?
Are you still keeping score?
I said I do not want to hold on to you anymore
I’m too weak to get up
I was strong but I got lost
Should I still put up a fight
if my dying is the cost?


How many thousand abrasions
And bruises does it take
For a feeble, hopeful soul
Like mine to make
Its intentions known to a listening god
To merit a most skeptical angel’s nod
Before I lose this nameless war
Tell me, what am I here for?

Are you still there, boy?
Are you still keeping score?
I said I do not want to hold on to you anymore
I’m too weak to get up
I was strong but I got lost
Should I still put up a fight
if my dying is the cost?

And if this cycle of highs and lows
Is the same for every man
Tell me, do I still get to make a choice
Do I still get to make a stand?
Help me remember
what I’ve forgotten I believed in
Life is the conceiving of love
despite the grieving

Are you still there, boy?
Are you still there?

Rock Bottom

Parang ang lahat ng ito’y
Nangyayari habang tayo’y nananaginip
Sa ilang sandali na lang
Ang umaga ay muling sisilip
Kung ang lahat ng iyong binibigkas
Ay tila hele sa aking pandinig
May ikatatamis pa ba
Ang ganitong pag-ibig?

‘Wag mo akong bitawan
Pikit lang
Sabay-sabay tayong magliparan
Nakikita mo ba nakangiting mga tala?
Atin ‘yan.

Marami akong hindi alam
At mas maraming pagkukulang
Tutal tayo ay hayop lang
Na ang lakas ay may hangganan
Ngunit kapag katabi kita
Parang ang lahat ay ayos lang
Ikaw ang aking sandata
Kaya’t ang lahat ay ayos lang

‘Wag mo akong bitawan
Pikit lang
Sabay-sabay tayong magliparan
Nakikita mo ba nakangiting mga tala?
Atin ‘yan!


Ikaw ang aking sandata

lyrics:

my love will do you no harm...

take a dip and baby we can see the stars
you and i tonight
yeah

in this place a conversation magnified
oh, it seems you could read my mind
yeah, relax a little
let yourself explore
there's always room for a little of that
a little of that
everybody knows what you are looking for
my love will do you no harm

take a dip and we can touch the sky
you and i tonight
i said all our senses multiplied times three
a little bit more and you lose your mind
you make me lose my mind

relax a little 
let yourself explore
there's always room for a little of that
everybody knows what you are looking for
my love will do you no harm

my love for you will do you no harm
you don't need to fight this feeling,
try your best to hide your feelings 


Harmless Love (Cosmic Love ft. Camoi) 2013 KC Casanova Remix

Soaked in Scissors (Pat Tirano, Mei Tayengco) X Camoi 

lyrics:

caught between blood and feeling
sitting on the brink of everything
i start falling

we're on the happy side of limbo
the happy side of limbo

you're free to live on the happy side

there's no right or wrong
you're free to spin along
on this dark dance

we're on the happy side of limbo
the happy side of limbo

this dark dance

Happy Side of Limbo (Lola Bones Mix)

feelsy?!...ish

lyrics:

girl trouble has a habit of leaving blood on the floor
making grown men leave their chosen religion
and if she can't have it, she'll want it, and she'll ask for more
she'll seduce you into her fancy superstitions

you say 'it's so hazy inside your love
i can't see a thing.
just that it's you i'm afraid of
oh, i don't know what i'm made of'
girl trouble

girl trouble when she gets hungry, she changes her mind
makes love to the ghost inside her head
yeah, she loves you but you're just not part of her private suicide
you'll lose yourself in her heart, it's a spider's web

you say 'it's so hazy inside your love
i can't see a thing.
just that it's you i'm afraid of
oh, i don't know what i'm made of'
girl trouble



Girl Trouble

HELLS YEAH LOLITA CARBON!!!

isip mo'y unti-unting 
nawawala
nalilito
ang tulad mo'y parang usok
unti-unting naglalaho

tanging hiling ko lang sayo
nakaraan ay tanggapin
at ang ngayon ay harapin
ang bukas ay darating pa

kaya't huwag sanang damdamin
pagkat ito'y payo lamang
mula sa akin, kaibigan,
na sa iyo'y nagmamahal

huwag mong sayangin ang panahon
pagkat ito'y may hanggan
buksan mo ang pintuan
kasama ng iyong puso

tinangay na ng hangin
ang masamang panaginip
kaya't bigyan mo ng puwang
ang puso mong nalulumbay


Usok (ASIN cover)

ang pangarap mong ilaw
kinandado ng matang ligaw
sino ang maaasahan sa mundo,
sandigan mo?

'di ka ba nangangawit
sa pasan mong 'di kailangan ng isip?
para san ang pabigat ng tao
na sinilungan mo?

diwang gala
ikaw ang hanap
ang anino ng kahapon
siya pa ring hari ng ngayon

ang nawawalang galawa
ay ginintuang utak-tanaw
naglalaho na ba tayo,
kaibigan ko?

diwang gala 
ikaw ang hirang
ang liwanag ng kahapon
siya pa ring hari ng ngayon

diwang gala
ikaw ang hanap
ang anino ng kahapon
siya pa ring hari ng ngayon

diwang gala
ikaw ang hirang
ang liwanag ng kahapon
siya pa ring hari ng ngayon

(2012)

Hirang

a guy i loved once said
"I must've been working the ropes
when your hand slipped from mine."
and all of these things that I'd read
led me down a slippery slope
where i lost my grip and missed the signs

i couldn't do 
anything to save you

let's stop looking over our shoulders
with fears of nightmares past
choking the present
let's get wise before we get older
unless you want the chaos to last
for you to resent and resent and resent

we were both scared and scarred
and we share half the blame
we can't outrun what we couldn't mend
you did yours and i did my part
to get us both in this boat of pain
you gave up, i did too. and this is the end.

i couldn't do
anything to save you

so i guess what i'm trying to say
before i run out of chances and time:
i forgive myself. i forgive it all.
we just couldn't make a better way
the mess of two hearts entwined
but oh, the rapture was worth the fall





PINOYSTORIES 2014

The Fall (demo 7714)

we are gravity bound
we intersect
i am the siren
you are the shipwreck

here you are, your chosen madness
offering the poison and the cure
and this, the path of least resistance
i'm a secret door, i'm a detour
i'm the scenic route,
i'm the holy grail
i'm the Mecca, you're devout
so go on and sail

you will find me, find me, find me, find me....

hear the whisper in the north wind waiting to exhale
among a liquid sky a ship broken at the sail
and that i know the undertow is grabbing us
it's obvious 
the fairy tale is over
acceptance is surrounding us
we try to hold despite the cold and jagged rocks
it's been that way the day we opened up Pandora's Box
and now i'm out of options, 
you're running out of oxygen
don't tell me we'll survive just be with me 
when we drop again and drown ågain
take me with you to the deep
we sleep amidst the war that's happening beneath the sheets
i need you to be strong 
yes, you need to be the anchor
you need to be the calm
beneath the raging waves of anger
surrendering the castle 
with no damsel in the tower
drown with me and let the sea envelope and devour
devour...

Gravity Bound (Assembly Generals ft. Camoi)

kung makatingin, nakakaloko
kung makapagsalita halatang hindi seryoso
'di ko malaman ang aking gagawin
ikaw ba'y sadyang pilyo lang o talagang papansin

pinaglalaruan ang aking damdamin
hindi mo ba alam
na may nasasaktan?

minsa'y ika'y nakapagbitaw ng salita
pagkatapos ng isang minuto'y nakalimutan mo na
'di na tuloy ako naniniwala
sa 'sandaang pangako mong napupunta sa wala

pinaglalaruan ang aking damdamin
hindi mo ba alam 
na may nasasaktan?

kung makatingin nakakaloko
kung makapagsalita halatang hindi seryoso
ikaw ba'y sadyang manhid lang
o talagang nagmamaang-maangan


Pilyo

tinatawag tayo ng ihip ng hangin
dinuduyan ng lupang kaharian natin
sa ilalim ng puno'y umaawit
may isang ibong sumasayaw sa langit

malaya

sinusuyo ako ng iyong paggiling
nakatingala sayo maghapon hanggang magtakip-silim
tinatayog mo ang layo abot mga bituin
ibong malayang kailangma'y 'di mapapasaakin

malaya

ibong marikit gumagala sa himpapawid
sumasayaw, gumigiling, umiindak, nakakainggit
ibong malayang kailanma'y 'di mapapasaakin
ibong malayang kailanma'y 'di mapapasaakin 

malaya  


Laya

wag mong pigilan ang idinidikta ng puso mo
wag kang matakot na sabihin kung ano ang totoo
sinong may sabi na mali ang iyong nararamdaman?
kung anong ikaliligaya mo ikaw lang ang nakakaalam

diskarte lang yan

wag nang isipin pa kung ano ang sasabihin nila
'di na kailangan bigyan ng pansin ang palagay ng iba
sinong may hawak ng kapalaran mo kundi ikaw din?
tanging ikaw ang makakatanaw ng liwanag sa gitna ng dilim

diskarte lang yan

hangga't sa may tiwala ka sa sarili mo 'di ka magkakamali
hangga't sa may tiwala ka sa panatang liligaya kang muli
walang sino mang makakapagsabi ng iyong dapat gawin
tanging ikaw ang makakatanaw ng liwanag sa gitna ng dilim

diskarte lang yan

sinong may sabi na mali ang iyong nararamdaman?

Sino May Sabi?

young love, bwisit love

lyrics:


sweet angel come down from the sky
sweet angel come down from the sky
dive away and bring tears to my eyes

you are my natural high
gather me into your mouth and let me cry

sweet
my baby love
my pretty baby love

crawling into your arms
is my sanctuary
and your kiss is a habit 
from which I cannot break free

hold me
and you my priceless gem
are mine for all eternity

sweet
my baby love
my pretty baby love

sweet angel descend on me
like heaven sent you to me
