can I keep u

of all the people you've met, why me
and what you see's what you get, why me
i know i'm not such a charmer
and i don't know what you see

of all the people you know, why me
though they've got more to show, why me
i thought i knew where i stood
but you think differently

are you just being kind
trying to find something to save me from
or do you really think i'm all that and more
do you really think i'm all that and more

of all the suitors who've tried, why me
the better-looking denied, why me
even inside i'm not sure of myself
are you thinking thoroughly 

are you just being kind
trying to find something to save me from
or do you really think i'm all that and more
do you really think i'm all that and more

are you just being kind
having faith that gold hides behind my walls
do you really think i'm all that and more
do you really think i'm all that and more

why me

*This is a demo of Exits. In the actual version, the lyrics aren't "the walls they close / our hearts are closing" it's "the walls they close / they won't stop closing" -Christine 

TV says we gotta get our more
TV says stay tuned for the next
I've got no friends and I've lost your number
I've got so many plans I pretend I exist

Tell me I'm obsessed with exits
Everyone no longer makes sense
My hands are numb 
I know we're touching
But there's a war going on and I'm starting
I'm staring again

I'm passing state lines in my dreams
Through the overcast, the milky haze
When the world's no longer breaking at the seams
Can you look for me?
I'm passing state lines in my dreams
Through the overcast, the milky haze
When the world's no longer breaking at the seams
Can you look for me?
Can you wait? 

Taking back the things that I'm saying
Still paralyzed by regrets
I'm losing balance and I'm balancing my losses
Making sure there's no part of me left

You tell me that I like the struggle
I'm struggling to figure that out
The walls they close
They won't stop closing
I'm looking at you and it's starting 
It's starting again 


I'm passing state lines in my dreams
Through the overcast, the milky haze
When the world's no longer breaking at the seams
Can you look for me?
I'm passing state lines in my dreams
Through the overcast, the milky haze
When the world's no longer breaking at the seams
Can you look for me?
Can you wait? 

Can you wait?
Can you wait?


I'm passing state lines in my dreams
Through the overcast, the milky haze
When the world's no longer breaking at the seams
Can you look for me?
I'm passing state lines in my dreams
Through the overcast, the milky haze
When the world's no longer breaking at the seams
Can you look for me?
Can you wait?

I wonder how I can make you feel 
the warmth of my hand
without our fingers tangling,
our pulses raising
Is it possible to hold it back?

But for now,
I can only embrace you with my words
while everything is still a blur

I wonder when 
I'll have the guts to ask you again
to teach me how to dance
Another lame excuse for me 
to hold your hand

But for now,
I will wait for the sun to burn this curse
The only thing I can do
is to let myself drown in your words
while everything is still a blur

Blur (original)

here's a preview of what's to come! i'm planning to record an album of 10 songs and will distribute it intimately to friends. mixing and mastering still need a lot of tweaking thus this is not the very final version of this song. this is a passion project of mine which i've wanted to do ever since and hopefully i'll be able to finish everything and distribute the material around early 2016. 
===================================================
album art: Figure on the Beach by John Sumpter

recorded using GarageBand
words, composition, & arrangement: iggy san pablo

lyrics:
sometimes i can’t ask you why
maybe it’s just a matter of time
why can’t we just talk this out 
but i’d be lying if i said let’s stop

the waves were pulling us together
despite the walls that we’ve built
can’t we just stay a bit longer
until the sun comes up
until i know you a little better

why do these things happen in life
i want you, you want me, but fuck that
i feel like i’m julian and you’re courtney love
“meet me in the bathroom," that’s what she said.

but i mind, it’s true i mind
you’re not trashy, which is why i fear giving in 
‘cause loving you is not part of the plan
        
maybe this is for the best 
timing, circumstances, situations
have a funny way of presenting themselves
we didn’t want to ruin it
but we can’t say we didn’t want it

can i know you a little better?





Until

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

BEEKEEPER

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

james marco - drums
kean reformado - production, mixing

i hate me for messing up a good thing
or was it really a good thing?
hate me, it's totally my fault, really
my pain today is my doing

tell me when to stop the car

drove past your three floor apartment building
where we breathed and ate the same things
drove past the place we first got foolish
where i taught the things that made you stupid

drove past the movie house where i met you
i liked the strokes and you did too
drove past the place i bought you a diamond
or am i lying?

tell me when to stop the car

stopped driving at the place where it ended
a beat down cafe where my heart descended
stopped driving when the tears came falling
all i can do at this point is remembering

driving around in my car
watching the stars in my car
leaving your scent in my car, your heartbreak still lingers


Tell Me When To Stop The Car

trial by fire
you know this isn’t gonna make things better 
without you i’m no use so do me a favor      	  
and after all of this we will still have each other

trial by fire
i am the moth that will die in the flame
we've gotten used to feeling so much pain
but after all of this i know we'll have each other

trial by fire
if we go on like this there won’t be no survivors
without us i’m no use please do us a favor
and after all of this we will still have each other

trial by fire
the last flower's trying hard not to wither
it can't survive under this stormy weather
but i know that we can both be the saviour

Memory Drawers - Lovingly, Leaving Me

you're always in love 
with all the people you meet
is it the spell that they cast 
or is it your heart that falls too fast

you always think twice
when something good comes around 
what is it you keep looking for
you keep looking over your shoulder 

i hope you find it

you think it's unfair
when people show that they care 
i don't understand 
cause it's just people being people
people being people
still

i hope you find it 

i think you found it

Lyrics by Mariah Reodica and Paolo Arciga

What am I to do when I want nothing new
And all I wanted was you in different shades of blue

But things don’t go that way
In every shade of grey
And I belong on this side of the sea

We’re tired and all we ever wanted
All we ever needed was to shed a bit of light

What am I to do when I can’t get through to you
Try to paint you off in black when you left me just with shades of blue
