Mundo Ko'y Mananatiling Nakatigil Para Iyong Maabutan
Hindi nalang didilat
para di maliwanagan.
Hahayaang tunaw ang puso
para di na mapakinabangan.
Tumuloy man ang oras
sa kanyang nakagawian.
Mundo ko’y mananatiling nakatigil
para ‘yong maabutan.
I'm Rooting For You Even When You're Not Looking
I'm rooting for you
even when you're not looking.
That's what makes my heart sing,
that's what keeps me going.
These simple joys that drown
and persuade meaning.
Sadly, brings back the past
that I keep regretti…
Tatanggapin nalang ang Kahinaang Hindi Matanggihan
Nagsawa na ang pusong
kumontra sa mga dahilan.
Tatanggapin nalang ang kahinaang
di matanggihan.
Hahayaan nang malunod
sa baluktot na katwiran.
Makinig sa mga nagsasabing
“hanggang dyan ka nalang”.<…
Excuses Poison the Tongue Until Heart Succumbs to Bitterness
Stuck on a path
that will only lead to
failure or success.
Neither will be good
since I’ve already been drowned
in emptiness.
Buried in hourglass
that shrouds my sight
and keeps me from happiness.
Apologize, It's Not the First Time I've Been Silly
I’ll just accept your apology.
It's not the first time I've been silly.
Gotten used to hearing your sorry.
I'll just keep taking it
until I find my own sanity.

Not Afraid of Retries, Fragile, But For You, I'll Try
Everything looks too much like a lie.
So I hide, I cry, I say goodbyes.
A cocoon that doesn’t want to fly.
Until you came and gave a smile.
Now, I'm not afraid of the retries.
Still fragile, but for you, I’ll…
Pursigidong Lahat ay Itaya sa Pangarap Nilaan ang Mata
Nangangarap lang
maging masaya.
Pursigidong lahat ay itaya.
Sa pangarap nilaan ang mata.
Ang ngayon ay binabalewala.
Nakalimutang walang kontrata
na magbabalik sa lumipas na.
Kung nakuntento na nga lang sana
To Stay Awake just to Avoid Having the Same Bad Dream
To stay awake
just to avoid
having the same bad dream.
To take a deep breath
just to hide
and suppress my own scream.
To wish for the rain
just to change
the path of this sad routine.
To forget it all…
Mundong Nabagal ang Ikot Kapag Tangan Mo ang Sakit
Puro negatibong sagot
sa mga tanong na “bakit?”.
Dating malaya sa poot
ngayo’y galit ang nalapit.
Mundong nabagal ang ikot
kapag tangan mo ang sakit.
Pangambang magpapalungkot
hanggang mawala …
Prayers and Tears Prevent Our Hearts From Becoming Clouded
When rainbows
seem too dull and faded.
Prayers and tears will
prevent our hearts
from becoming clouded.
For everything
is blurred by hatred.
It is our choices,
not the pain,
that caused us to be blind…
