kakalimutan na kita
siguraduhin mong hindi talaga pwedeng tayo
napagisipan mo na ba 
dahil kakalimutan na kita
eto na

eto na

kakalimutan ko narin
mga sinabi mong wala palang ibig sabihin
pati narin ang 'yong ngiti
at mga luha sa 'yong paghikbi
eto na

eto na

buburahin na sa isip
ang hugis ng iyong mga mata sa 'yong pagtawa
kung pano ka ba manamit
pati kung pano ka ba umidlip
eto na

eto na

paalam na nga ba?
kung hindi na tayo magkikita
nawa ay mangyaring
hilahin tayo ng kamay ng Diyos
sa isang pagkikita
sa isang pangitain

kakalimutan na kita
siguraduhin mong hindi talaga pwedeng tayo
napagisipan mo na ba 
dahil kakalimutan na kita
eto na

Sa Hindi Pag-alala

for the slow month and the extinct months before it

--

we go out til' it's dark
it's not problem when you're 
faced with anxieties deep
it's the moment you keep
this may we're hotter than sun
oh yeah they hide and they run
it's not your typical game
that's gonna drive you insane

you come out til' your stark
they'll bring out all sorts of cases
but not a listening ear
they'll sear the surface for later
they'll tell an anecdote
but it's not like others will make sense
of a commodity
you're worth more than what they say


post-modernism

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

ang buhok mo'y parang gabing numinipis 
sa pagdating ng madaling araw 
na kumukulay sa alapaap 

ang ngiti mo'y parang isang tala 
na matagal na ang kinang ngunit ngayon lang nakita 
kung kailan wala na 

kailan kaya mahahalata 
ang pighati sa ilalim ng iyong mga tawa 

kahit mawala ka pa 
hinding-hindi mawawala 
ang damdamin ko'y sa'yong-sa'yo 

ang buhay mo'y parang kandila na pumapawi 
sa kadiliman ng gabing puno ng dalita 
at ng lagim 

bawat segundo ay natutunaw 
tumutulo parang luha 
humuhugis na parang mga puting paru-paro 

kailan kaya mahahalata 
ang pighati sa ilalim ng iyong mga tawa 

kahit mawala ka pa 
hinding-hindi mawawala 
ang damdamin ko'y sa'yong-sa'yo 

sa'yong-sa'yo 

ni isang beses ay hindi pa 'ko 
nakakakain ng paru-paro 
ngunit tila bakit ang sikmura ko'y puno? 

saka ko naalala na noon 
nang una kong masabi ang pangalan mo 
nakalunok ako kaya siguro 

kailan kaya mahahalata 
ang pighati sa ilalim ng iyong mga tawa 

kahit mawala ka pa 
hinding-hindi mawawala 
ang damdamin ko'y sa'yong-sa'yo 

sa'yong-sa'yo

A Case Of You (Joni Mitchell Cover) by Rice Lucido

hey pretty girl
I know that you don't know me but
I want you to know that there's something about that just
caught me off guard. 'can't put my finger on it but
I think it's your smile, from a mile
and for a while i
-felt insecure. Whenever you're around i try to
keep it all cool, act less of a fool~

'cause deep inside i'm falling,
Body's heavily sweating,
My heart keeps skipping a beat everytime our eyes-
-meet-ing on the hallways,
hoping that it'll always
happen everyday~

Those rosy cheeks-
are killing me slowly 
like an ice under the sun
there's nowhere to run from this-
feeling i get, thougth it's infatuation but
why won't it fadeaway, why won't it fadeaway 'cause~

deep inside i'm falling,
body's heavily sweating,
my heart keeps skippin a beat everytime our eyes-
meet -ing on the hallways,
hoping that it'll always 
be the same scene everyday.

pam pa raram~

a song about longing during lockdown

lyrics:

I could be spending all my days
Sitting on, on a couch with you
I’ve been wondering how things could’ve been
If we were locked in together
Things would’ve been so much better
At home~

I could be spending all my days
Listening to you tellin tales
I won’t mind if we talk until the sun comes
Shining in the morning
Things would’ve been less boring
At home~

With you baby
With you baby
At home with you baby
With you baby

I could be spending nights with you
Dancing slow to some oldies blues
Getting all the booze. Get wasted
‘til we wake up not knowing what just happened
Things would’ve been more exciting
At home~

I could be spending hours long
Listening to you sing a song
‘cause it’s ecstasy. It’s hard for me
To get over it when you start singing
It could’ve been so much warm in
Our home~

With you baby
With you baby
Alone with you baby
With you baby

‘cause I’m
Going crazy, Oh God
Flip the sheets
‘cause I need to be
At home~
