Poem Crafted By Songs

Lately, I've been UPSIDE DOWN, doesn't know where to go
I've been battling the world to MAKE IT MINE
I want to BE SOMEBODY who was there and will be there
and now can't move, HANGING BY A MOMENT with you

These were the SONGS OF THE CENTURY
Making me believe that I wasn't BORN FOR THIS
To be YOUR GUARDIAN ANGEL, forever
Yet I was too INNOCENT, too inexperienced

NO AIR to breathe when I'm without you
I CAN'T STOP, GONNA DATE WITH HATE
No one GETS ME RIGHT, no one understands
and everyday I'm becoming more than an AMERICAN IDIOT

Yes, you are my OXYGEN, the one that keeps my day
I really need you since our AVALANCHE happened
Told me there are more BEAUTIFUL GIRLS out there
and to stop BEING IN LOVE WITH A DREAM - for it can't happen again

Truly, MUCH HAS BEEN SAID, much has been done
THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES, that's all I can say
Thank you for being the ALL I SONG, the one I needed
I've been CRAZY FOR YOU and now this should stop
I DARE YOU TO MOVE, move and have my direction again
YOU'RE NOT ALONE, you have friends and I'm still part of them

We were FAR AWAY, far worlds apart
we told our GOODBYES, our future regrets
but WHATEVER IT TAKES, we should be firm with it
I may HATE you for this things you've done but I love you
but I'll never have a reason to stop living, I'LL TAKE MY CHANCES

You'll be EVERYWHERE, the one I'll be looking for in others
for in you, I felt the love, I was in my SANCTUARY
the SEARCHLIGHTS found you, now it's time to find another one
our LOVE STORY has just ended, frowns on us, we didn't make it

here's a fact, you'll be my FAVORITE GIRL

Jackpot

The next few lines will be a song about having that feeling that you won a jackpot just because you already found the one. When everything's enough just because you have the one.

-------------------------------------------

Verse 1:
'Di ako tumataya sa lotto
'Di ako sumasali sa promo
Ngunit nang makilala ka
Mundo ko'y nag-iba,
Feeling ko panalo ako sa'yo

Chorus:
Ako'y naka-jackpot
Ako'y naka-jackpot
Tinaya ko lang ang puso ko
Swerte ko naman sa'yo

Ako'y naka-jackpot
Ako'y naka-jackpot
Effort lang puhunan ko
Pag-ibig ang sinukli mo

Verse 2:
Lugi ako sa pag-ibig dati
Lugi ako sa daming babae
Ngunit nang makasama ka
Mundo ko'y nag-iba
Feeling ko panalo ako sa'yo

Chorus

Bridge:
Ohhhhh
Jackpot ako sa'yo
Ohhhhh
Jackpot ako sa'yo
'Di na kita iiwan
'Di kita pababayaan
Kasi naman, naman, naman, naman
Jackpot ako sa'yo

Meaning

We live in a current time where we do things just because. I do believe that everything happens for a reason. Maybe if we did something, we did it because of something or someone. I wrote this poem because I wrote it for a special someone.

-----------------------------------------------

We live in a very crazy world
Where almost all has no enough meaning
Where we do things just because
Where we aren't brave enough to face king truth
Where we are ashamed to be accoutable
Where we don't embrace every consequence
Where we aren't confident that we loved what we did

To you, whom I shared a part of my crazy world,
I meant that, what had happened,
It's not a deed of just because
It's not a deed that I don't want to face
It's a deed where I want to tell you
That I meant it because I like you

Let this be my piece of peace
Let this be my letter of intent and meaning
That what I did has meaning in me
Not just because of a spur in the moment
It is because I want to share my life with you

Ang Punlang 'Di Ko Malilimutan

Huli ko nang nalaman
Huli ko nang napagtanto
Bakit nga ba pinabayaan
Mawala ang punlang tinanim sa bato

Pinaghirapan, inalagaan, pinalago
Kahit sa bato sinimulan tinahak, hinamak
Sinubukan dahil liwanag ay kita ko
Kahit marami nang nagbalak

Akala ko madali lang, akala lang
Akala ko nagwagi na ako, 'di pa pala
Lumago ang punla, lumalim ugat niya
'Di na siya bibitaw sa lupa, sabi ko lang

Hanggang dumating isang bagyo
Isang unos na 'di inaasahan
Inangat siya sa lupa, hinangin palayo
'Di na malaman kanyang pinatunguhan

Wala na, 'di ko napaghandan ito
Masyado akong naging kampante
Hindi pala dapat maging sigurado
Hindi pala dapat sinabing 'di bale

Sumubok magtanim ng isa pang punla
Sa parehong bato kung saan nagsimula
Ngunit hindi na ito tulad ng dati
Ang saya ko'y 'di na mababalik muli

Paalam sinimulang punla, paalam
Napuno ako ng pighati sa pagkawala
Nawa'y mabilis mawala, maghilam
Ang sugat na damang dama ko pa

Naudlot

Dalawang puso
Parehong nasiyahan, parehong nasugatan
Dalawang puso
Dati nag-ibigan, ngayo'y 'di na magkaalaman
Kung ano ba ang itatawag sa bawat isa
Dahil ngayo'y napakalabo na
Ng estado nilang dalawa

Minsan 'di lang pag-ibig ang nauudlot
Sa dalawang pusong nasugatan
Minsan pati pagkakaibigan ay 'di naibabalik
Dahil mismo tao sa paligid nila
'Di pa matapos ang paniniwala sa magandang katapusan
Na siyang naghatol ng habambuhay na ending
Sa dalawang pusong ngayon nagnanais maging bati

[song] the damsel in distress

verse 1:
why do you wait?
for your prince that you hate
don't you get tired?
of being the one who always cried

refrain:
this is to my damsel in distress
this is the time i will confess
that i need you
that i love you

chorus:
you are my princess and you mean the world to me
you are the fairest, the only one i see
i ain't your prince
but i can be
your knight in shining armor x4

verse 2:
can you see me?
i've been here to make you happy
can you be mine?
so that everything would be so fine

refrain

chorus

bridge
you may always always cry
but i'm hear to wipe your tears
you may always be so sad
but i'm hear to make you happy
you ain't always heard
but i can be your handy diary
he might not be always around
but i'm just here always by your side

chorus

outro
you are my princess that means so much to me
you are the fairest girl that will be forever seen

Game Changer

All have their game
A certain style of playing will change
The whole  love
Some just play around
Some will fight for love
And some don't want it bad

Love, purely, isn't a game
It's like a road where you give
Where you are rewarded for giving
It's not a paper you write your plans
And not make these writing happen
Love is something real
Something that heightens your feelings
An overdrive to maxima, to infinity

Eventually, when the right one comes
She will change your game
All of the above will happen
Everything will fall in its place perfectly
And not just a part of you will change
The whole you, not only your game
Everything my friend

It's either you become the one changed
Or the one who'll change others
The one who'll be saved
From the wrong sight of love
Or the one who will shed light
And place them in the right track

Who are you between the two?
The gamer or the game changer?
Either way, that one will find the only exception
