Labing-Sampu

Kathang-isip na mapagkunwari
Ginto'y sa dulo raw ng bahag-hari
Sa huling hininga bumabawi
Nasanay lang sa suwail na gawi.

Araw-araw sumasapit ang gabi
Mga tala'y lumayo sa tabi
Ang hangin lang ang madalas bumati
Tadhana'y sadyang mapaghiganti

Kung maari'y sayo ay lumagi
Giliw huwag na sanang tumanggi
Nawa ating kaluluwa'y mag-sapi
Sa daigdig nating mapang-api

Nagsidigmaan na ang mga lahi
Sa puso kong tinastas ang tahi
Sa'yo o sa leeg ba itatali?
Sakaling maitama ang mali.

Tayotay

Nais ko nang mamatay
Matagal kong hinintay;
Tumabi sa'yo itay.
Putulin na ang buhay
Sa mundong walang saysay
Wala mang kaagapay,
Pantunaw lang ng atay.
Suko na Sa'yong kamay;
Ang walang kwentang bagay....
Puro sakin inilagay.
 Bandera'y winagayway
Sa darating kong lamay
Iyak niyong malumanay,
Sa tahanang napilay.
 Ngiti na walang kulay
Gabi na walang gabay
Concencia na nahalay...
Walang kamalay-malay...
Hindi na makasabay...
Wala nang pantay-pantay...
 Nais ko nang mamatay

Meaninglist

Everywhere that I look and turn
Doesn't really matter what I earn
My body and soul, the world shall burn.
Well I guess it's always hard to learn
How people can't love you in return.

We can't escape from them who hurt
Cause evil is what builds up the earth
Should have done it to myself like Kurt
How we love to be treated like dirt
Funny, how everyone's a pervert...

When was the last time you felt so warm?
Did you feel the sun without the storm?
How nobody can do you no harm...
And our souls are not in uniform...
But in your wrath you chose to conform.

Buhayin

BUHAYIN

Ang ngiti mo'y bumabagay
Sa hatid ng iyong mga labi
Ika'y nagsisilbing tala sa hating gabi.

Mga munting mata na marikit
Sa akin ay pinapawi ang lahat ng sakit
Tanging nais lang ay sayo'y lumagi

Chorus:
Abangan na lang natin
Bumalik ang bukas
At iwanan ang darating
Kung lahat man ay kumupas
Sa iyo ay mananatiling buhay

Ang diwa mo'y aking gabay
Huwag sanang malayo sa'king tabi
Pighati kong walang ibang pumapawi

Ang kaluluwa'y nananabik
Madampian lang ng iyong halik
Tanging nais lang ay sayo'y lumagi

Chorus:
Abangan na lang natin
Bumalik ang bukas
At iwanan ang darating
Kung lahat man ay kumupas
Sa iyo ay mananatiling buhay (2x)
Mananatiling buhay sa iyo...

Flower Power

I dreamt of running around the meadows,
Full of glee my heart is chanting
As  I rest my head above my elbow
Shit memories that are haunting

Those blaming faults, they chase and they follow
They feed on my cries and grunting
Bitter tears that I'm obliged to swallow
My ugliness seems enchanting.

Thy imagination is as hallow,
Like birds, feathers are landing.
Please take back the life you made me borrow.
Prayers were never sending.

Little Square Paper

Someone gave me a Little Square Paper
Don't swallow! They said, keep it on your tongue.
Numb your mouth, wait until you loose your anger
No it's not a bee but the buzz has a strong stung.

Be brave and awake, then you'll find the answer
Then you'll learn you were never even born or young...
How there was no such thing as cancer
And you can breathe somewhere besides your lung.

Institutions won't teach you how to wander
The creatures cringe when they heard your soul sang.
You must get along with all the stranger
To your understanding must you never clung

Join us! Don't dare spit the little square paper
At the edge of the moon you'll have your head hang
Throw yourself away, it's just you; only lighter.
Learn that your universe was not just a big bang.
