this would sound perfect on a rainy evening.

An Attempt To Measure Happiness

my backspace button’s worn
from the things i never said
i never can afford
to be casual instead
but if you could be so kind
don’t remind me that i’m blindly hung up over you

do i seem to care too much
with how i pretend not to care
you’re too cool for me
but i guess you’re not aware
that i exist but it’s okay
i’ll be over it someday
you’ll look me in the eye
and i won’t melt right in my place
but i really hate your face
and how it it makes me wanna cry
there’s an ache in my dumb heart
that only passes when you smile
and it shines for miles
it reminds me that i’m blindly hung up over you

would you still be just as kind
if you knew what’s on my mind
i’m stifling a sigh
and i hope she treats you right
and the things i’ll never say
will cease to tear me up inside
the feelings bottled up within
will someday crystallize
into memories so nice
that remind me i was once so hung up over you

backspace me

Waltz Of Four Left Feet

A song about finding meaning

LYRICS:
Panahon
May mga sikretong binubulong
Kung lumipas na ba
Takdang oras na nakalaan

Sa atin
At parang ihip lang ng hangin
Tayo’y lilisan din
At kailanma’y di maiintindihan

Bakit pilit inaagaw
Ng tadhana ang bukas na tinatanaw
Kung ang buhay ay byaheng balikan
Bakit papunta pa lang ito’y tutuldukan

Ano kayang dahilan?

Panahon
Kay bilis lang minsan na di natin
Namamalayang nasayang
Oras natin sa paghihintay

Sa magpakailanman
At kapag ating naintindihan
Huli na ang lahat
Kaya’t sulitin ang bawat pagkakataon

Kahit pilit aagawin
Ng tadhana ang landas na tatahakin
Wag kang matakot
Mundo ay umiikot
Anumang kalabasan ng kinabukasan

Lahat ng bagay may dahilan

Awitin natin, sa mga bituin
Na ang kalangitan ay magpahiwatig sa atin
Ng liwanag, kanyang kaalaman
Na ang lahat ng bagay ay may dahilan

Lahat ng bagay, may dahilan


Dahilan

you
i saw your face in june
you didn't have a clue of my infatuation

clues that i gave out to you
you took my bait it seemed so easy
you've made it very easy

did i ever expect to get out of my recent wreck?
will we ever expect to get out of our recent wreck?

i did not expect a response
from a girl of distance and 
an obedience to my affectations

did you ever expect to get out of your recent wreck?
will we ever expect to get out of our recent wreck?

please, tell me about your day.

A super straightforward live cover of Us by Regina Spektor (with added harmonies) :D I wasn't too fuzzy about this, I just wanted to update!

Nice Choreography
(ニース の振り付け)
(멋진 안무)
(bagus Koreografi)
(尼斯编舞)
(Niza Coreografía)

Hold me closer, feel my steady feet
Twirl and kiss your cheeks and then repeat
Turning to a nice choreography
'Til the music stops, let's wait and see

Circling the floor, dimming the lights
What is this for? - Dreaming tonight
With other folks dancing in beat
Why will you want to go back to your seat?

Holding back, deciding what to do with me tonight
Going with the flowing and deciding what to do with me

Tonight I think I want to stay asleep
I'll avoid all of the wide and busy streets
Turning to a nice catastrophe
Please do not disturb just let me be

So

Did you memorize your lines?
Did you memorize your moves?
Did you memorize your whole routine?

Do you memorize your lies?
Do you think that I'm a fool?
Do you really think I couldn't see?

Nice Choreography

--
spent my winters trying to get warm 
because all my days were spent in your cold palms 
can’t tell the weather, but my head's in the clouds 
you told me "hold me closer and they won't find out" 

I've got my hands tied behind my back and 
I cant change the fact that 
I have rearranged myself to be there always 
all you gave me was the cold on your shoulder; can't do this any longer 
moments felt like it took forever, I know I should have known better 

tulad ng salitang sa gitna may gitling 
ramdam ko pag malayo ako sa 'yong piling 
magkatabi pero malayo pa rin 
kahit kailan sana tayo naman ay magkahulugan

Bulan

I've got my head up in the cloud
Hopin' I'd see you around
Have a laugh for I'm the clown
And turn that frown upside down, down, down.

I still got some bills to pay
They're gonna kick me out anyway
I'm feelin' down and it's okay
Just stick around and come what may

Can't go out it's a rainy day
And I'm runnin' out of things to say
La di da da da da da
If it's love then don't delay!

I'm feelin'
Down, down, down
It's another day

Now it's time to say goodbye
But if I told her then she would cry
Today's just another day
And there isn't any other way

I'm feelin'
Down, down, down
It's another day!

A few things about the province life in the Philippines.
production by Harlow Beats

What's up? Timmy Tim's gonna tell a short story 'bout a kid who lived in a little town. I'ma tell you 'bout a probinsyano boy, used to play with his toys, made noise, and he turned it down. He lived the probinsyano life. Ever witnessed going home with stars so bright at night? Chillin' in Manila, but he's repping from the north, courts outdoor when the boy ballin', running back and forth.
He used to live with his grandma, had the asthma, but he wants to fucking run to Alabama. The boy first spit bars on a stage, with the hype to play no games, and he was just feeling it.
Spittin it, shit.. and the crowd was hella psyched.
"What's wrong with the world, mama?" hands on the mic.
It's like Kim Chui finally found her Mister Right, little Tim bowling his first strike.
(Ummm, nice..)
The little boy was thirteen years old, young, cold, bold, and his story just unfolded.
Got a big head, but with God he's healed, he's forgiven.
Changing this game is his mission.
I know the Philippines is not the perfect place, but take a look around, I'm telling you it's no mistake. Chill, surf in beaches, take a tour or simply bake, man.. This is the life. The probinsyano life.
The probinsyano life, call this little thing the probinsyano life.

Sounding absurd, he spoke curse words that were unheard in the city.
Witty feeling's tellin' him to feel the pride cause he has his own dialect.
Rubbed his neck, told himself he's gonna be the best.
The kid would start fishin' in the rivers, pretty deep. He would jump or just ride in the back of a jeepney, feeling free, paying eight pesos for the ride. Having fun, little Timmy feeling good vibes.
At home, all he does is watch the Game of Thrones, chillin in the summer weather, keep the AC on.
Call a couple homies, tell em' brodies he's alone. Play some Call of Duty on a PS4. Yo, at noon, all he does is chill up in his room looking through the view while he feels a little lazy too.
Eating Sinigang na baboy, munching with the crew, it's hot, but he's feeling pretty cool.
Shit, it's LIT!
The province life, he's really missing it. Biking with the lovely sunsets when he was a kid. Feeling sentimental 'cause he hasn't been at home, yo his province life was real dope! (NOPE)
He's simply deviant, the culture's fucking different.
The bigger buildings, type of living makes him look so innocent.
A citizen, little Tim ain't really gonna lie,
back in high-school Timmy lived the probinsyano life.

The Probinsyano Life

Tagu-taguan 
By: Bita and the Botflies

Verse 1:
Sabi niya "Okay lang sa akin 
maging pangalawa"
Sabi nya, "Magaling naman akong magtago
Kahit mukhang gago"

La la la la 

Chorus: 
Tagu-taguan
Maliwanag ang buwan
Nag-aalangan, naglilinlangan
Langit at lupa'y ginapang ko na
Hindi ka pa rin makukuha

Verse 2:
Sabi mo naman, "Magkita tayo,
Alas-dose,
'Sang kalye sa Cubao.
Sandali na lang
Naghahanap lang
Ng tyempo
Sa kanyang himbing,
I-eskapo"

Dahan-dahang,
Humahakbang,
Lumulundag yung pusong 
Nang-aahas

Chorus:
Tagu-taguan
Maliwanag ang buwan
Nag-aalangan, naglilinlangan
Langit at lupa'y ginapang ko na
Hindi mo pa rin matataya

Bridge:
Paggising ko
Wala na sa tabi
Sinundan ko 'yong mga bakas

Nadatnang
Magkahalikan
Dinukot kong
Balisong

La la la la 

Tagu-taguan 
Maliwanag ang buwan
Nag-aalangan, naglilinlangan
Langit at lupa'y ginapang ko na
Sa wakas, nahuli ka

LYRICS

Bakit tuwing inaaya kita
Nauuwi lagi sa susunod na linggo
O buwan o kung kailan mang araw
Wala kang ginagawa?

Lagi na lang pinagbibigyan
Pumapayag na lang sa mga dahilan
Kahit minsan wala namang katuturan
Ano bang magagawa?

'Pag wala ka nang ibang mahanap
Na tao, bagay na magpapasaya sa 'yo
Ako 'yung tipong kay daling mahatak
Bubulong ka lang nandiyan na agad ako
Tagahandog ng mga libreng yakap
At may kanta para sa bawat eksena mo
Sandalan lagi ang mga balikat
At mga luha mo, ako'ng tagasalo

Sino kaya'ng sisisihin nila
'Yun bang taong manhid na walang madama
O 'yung batang paslit na umaasa pa
Na may pwede pang magawa?

Sino kaya'ng naging biktima
Siya bang nalulungkot at nagdadrama
O siya bang nagbigay ng lahat sa kanya
Ngunit wala namang nagawa

Kung wala ka nang ibang mahanap
Na tao, bagay na magpapasaya sa 'yo
Ako 'yung tipong kay daling mahatak
Bubulong ka lang nandiyan na agad ako
Tagahandog ng mga libreng yakap
At may kanta para sa bawat eksena mo
Sandalan lagi ang mga balikat
At mga luha mo, ako'ng tagasalo

Lyrics:

Aking iiwan
ang pagkabata.
Aking hangarin
ay hahanapin.
Ating ihain
at pagsaluhan;
pagkaing binilin
nang dahil sa akin.

Uusbong ang
realidad.
Sa pagdungaw ng
legalidad,
mapapansin...

Kuwentong kaibigan.
Kuwentong pamilya.
Ihip ng pangarap
sa apoy ng kandila.
Akin ang usok.
Akin ang alak.
'Di itatago
ang binabalak.

Uusbong ang
realidad.
Sa pagdungaw ng
legalidad,
mapapansin...

Uusbong ang
realidad
sa pagdungaw ng
legalidad.
At habang ako'y
lumilipad,
mapapansin...

Apoy ng Kandila

Lyrics:

Jules
I think of you tonight
but all I can do
is close my eyes
to fall asleep

Jules
You're stuck in my head
You're dancing with
your innocence
and that's so wonderful

Jules
I'm in love
Jules
I'm in love
Jules
I just can't get enough
My lonely heart is trembling
It's calling your name

Jules
Jules
Jules

Jules
I want to know you more
How can we be
able to talk 
about anything?

Jules
I feel sorry for myself
'cause I'm dreaming of
touching your skin
and staring at your eyes

Jules
I'm in love
Jules
I'm in love
Jules
I just can't get enough
My lonely heart is trembling
It's calling your name

Jules
Jules
Jules

Jules
Jules
Jules

Jules
Jules
