Umbrellas

Why does it appear, to be a dream to me
for I still feel the touch of your hands.
My throat tightens,
and my breath is unsteady.
 
Why do I feel, that this is nothing
for so many memories demand a look.
My wrists are tightened, and my mind is unsteady.
 
I don’t know, what happened here what took you away from here.
Was it ordinary fear or rejection?
 
I don’t know to whom it seemed there was too little, where are you?
 
How am I to go on, if I’ve given all of me to you?
 
I fold umbrellas into spikes, I sharpen knives I sharpen fangs.
I won’t cry, I won’t cry.
My fist vents rage into a wall
and from its stones I raise a stack.
I won’t cry, I won’t cry.
 
Why do I feel, this night will never end
even, if day would rise early
my throat tightens.
 
Don’t know what to do now,
how to get satisfaction?
How to quell the fright and fury?
Don’t know what to reach for, where is your raft?
I don’t have the strength.
 
How am I to go on, if I have given all of me to you?
 
I fold umbrellas into spikes, I sharpen knives I sharpen fangs.
I won’t cry, I won’t cry. My fist vents rage into a wall
and from its stones I raise a stack.
I won’t cry, I won’t cry.
 
I’m changing gears, it’ll be better it’ll be easier. I won’t cry, I won’t cry.
I erase you from here and straighten the fingers of my hand.
I won’t cry, I won’t cry.
 
Come back!
Don’t come back?
 
Go wherever you will.
Don’t stop it was just a dream. I’m already waking up.
 
I fold umbrellas into spikes, I sharpen knives I sharpen fangs.
I won’t cry, I won’t cry. My fist vents rage into a wall
and from its stones I raise a stack.
I won’t cry, I won’t cry.
 
I’m changing gears, it’ll be better it’ll be easier. I won’t cry, I won’t cry.
I erase you from here and straighten the fingers of my hand.
I won’t cry, I won’t cry.

Song for a child on the street

At this exact hour
There is a child on the street
There is a child on the street!
 
It's the honour of the people to protect what grows
To watch out that there isn't childhood scattered on the streets,
To avoid that their ship heart wrecks
Their incredible adventure of bread and chocolate
Putting a star in the place of hunger.
Doing it a different way is useless, doing it a different way is absurd
To practice joy and singing on the earth
Because it's worth nothing if there's a child in the street.
 
The world should not go with love barefoot
Hoisting a paper like a wing in its hand
Climbing on trains, exchanging laughter
Hitting our chest with a tired wing.
Life should not go, newborn, with a price,
The risky childhood with a tight profit
Because then hands are a useless burden
And the heart, barely a bad word.
 
Woe is the one that forgot that there's a child on the street,
That there are millions of children who live on the street
And a multitude of children who grow up on the street
I see them tightening their little hearts.
Looking at us all with fables in their eyes
A lightning cut short crosses their gaze
Because noone protects that life that grows
And love got lost like a child on the street.
 
At this exact hour
There is a child on the street
There is a child on the street!

A zimbit la mine

A zimbit la mine
N-a spus nimic totusi
A facut un gestut
De la cine vrea sa se intoarca
 
Dansa cu cineva
Care m-a furat a lui iubire
Acum e prea tirziu
Nu mai sufar de aceasta durere
 
E tirziu, e tirziu
Am gasit o noua iubire

In the Hotel to the Paradise

What feels well? Tell me!
A Rendezvous with strictly closed door
Yeah how do you come
To such a Rendezvous
To have the things glad
and having it good together?
Where don't you get ripped off?
I give you the recipe cause of friendship
 
Yeah in the Hotel to the Paradise
There I always find
A beautiful room
The Stubenmaid 1 hm, hm, she's called Alice
You ring for her,
And she is at the door.
She comes in late at night:
'My Lord, what is it?'
Yes, the Alice (?)
Do I find sweet (?)
Thats why I'm a regular in the Paradise
 
Husband, Husband
Does your spouse behave yourself now and then -
For reasons you can not
Officially discusses -,
Yes, does she throws you out,
Even from your house?
Oh,
Husband, then be glad
You sleep much better elsewhere!
 
Yeah in the Hotel to the Paradise
There I always find
A beautiful room
The Stubenmaid hm, hm,
For sure (?)
You ring for her,
And she is at the door.
She comes in late at night:
'My Lord, what is it?'
Yes, the Alice (?)
Do I find sweet (?)
Thats why I'm a regular in the Paradise

I Live To Sing To You

I
 
I sing the chacarera
I am creole peasant,
I sing the things of my homeland
come to sing with me!
 
I sing like my grandfather
and I do it very coscient
I sing from my heart
I sing for our countrypeople.
 
In the language of this land
I speak, I converse, I tell and I sing.
I want to tell you in Quichua
that you abandoned it so much!
 
I sing for my brothers
I sing to the fashion of the countryside
this humbre chacarera
humbly I sing to you.
 
II
 
So gorgeous, so simple,
peasant chacarera.
tradition of Santiago,
you´re called Salavinera.
 
Chacarerita of the hills
the one that gives the most joys
one that does the same
has not been born yet.
 
Chacarera taste of añapa,
chacarerita so ours.
Taste of patay, taste of arrope,
taste of aloja and dead water.
 
Chacarera, anthem of the little corner of the world,
how am I going to forget you?
sweet creole of my land
I live to sing to you!

Songs for the end of the world

Cry no more, my love
Embrace this moment
For the end is near
And I need to see you smile
There is no time for more
Lie to me
 
And like this I will open up among shadows
Towards where fear won't find a place
You can't see me, but I'm still here
 
Hey, you, yes you
The one with a sad expression
And eyes that make one fly
Let's go higher
Where they won't be able to reach
This condemned love
Condemned but ours
 
And like this I will open up among shadows
Towards where fear won't find a place
You can't see me, but I'm still here
 
You being the thing closest to heaven
Where I could never be
While songs for the end of the world sound
 
You can't see me, but I'm still here
You can't see me, but I'm here
And even though you don't see me, I never left
You can't see me, but I'm still here
 
And like this I will open up among shadows
 
And like this I will open up among shadows
Towards where fear won't find a place
You can't see me, but I'm still here
 
You being the thing closest to heaven
Where I could never be
While songs for the end of the world sound
 
And songs sound
And songs sound
And songs for the end of the world sound
 
And songs sound
And songs sound
And songs for the end of the world sound

Forbidden for Me

Versions: #2
She thought my hair was funny
Forbidden for me, no way
She said she couldn't stay
But she took everything I said seriously
 
I'll do whatever I can
I'll steal this woman for me
I can call you anytime
But I even don't know your name!
 
If not me
Who'll make you happy?
If not me
Who'll make you happy?
War!
 
I caught myself thinking of you
Of all the things I wanted to tell you
On a specially good night
There's nothing more for us to do
 
I'll do whatever I can
I'll steal this woman for me
I can call you anytime
But I even don't know your name!

Vieţi separate

M-ai chemat din camera ta de hotel
toată plină de dragoste pentru cineva pe care-ai întâlnit
şi spunându-mi cât de rău îţi pare că vei pleca aşa de curând
şi că ţi-e dor de mine uneori când eşti singură în camera ta,
Oare nu mă simt şi eu singur?
 
N-ai niciun drept să mă-ntrebi cum mă simt
N-ai niciun drept să-mi vorbeşti atât de frumos
Nu putem fi împreună ţinându-ne de timp
Aşa că de acum vom trăi vieţi separate
 
Ei bine, mă ţin să nu te las să pleci
şi dacă ai pierdut iubirea pentru mine, niciodată nu ai arătat-o
Nu era cale de compromis
aşa că acum trăim
(acum trăim...)
vieţi separate...
 
E atât de tipic, dragostea duce la izolare
ca să-ţi faci acel zid
(să faci acel zid)
Da, faci acel zid
(faci acel zid)
şi îl faci mai puternic.
 
Nu, n-ai niciun drept să mă întrebi cum mă simt
N-ai niciun drept să-mi vorbeşti atât de frumos
Într-o zi m-aş găsi privindu-te în ochi
(aş putea)
Dar de acum, vom trăi vieţi separate
Da, de acum, vom trăi vieţi separate...
 
Vieţi separate...

Happy end

Voi desena, cu cretă voi scrie:
''I love you''.
Două scenarii ale aceleiași soarte,
Diferite priviri și culori în aceeași joacă.
Voi scrie, că tu ai plecat.
Dar te-ai întors în scurt timp pentru totdeauna.
Tu doar desenai pe felicitări
Ușile pentru mine, care acum sunt închise.
Nu scrie ''The end'',
Eu voi face să fie Happy end.
Voi întoarce totul așa,
Ca două inimi să bată din nou în același ritm.
Doar totul e ca în filme,
Lasă-mă să-l termin de filmat.
Nu scrie ''The end'',
Eu voi face să fie Happy end.
Tu doar știi, totul e posibil de reparat,
De tăiat, de scris din nou coperta,
De filmat din nou toate scenele, monologurile.
Din scenariu trebuie atât de mult de șters.
Decorațiunile să le schimbăm cu toamna,
Despre locație nimeni nu va întreba.
Lasă-mă să fac asta în secret,
Ca totul să fie de parcă întâmplător.
Nu scrie ''The end'',
Eu voi face să fie Happy end.
Voi întoarce totul așa,
Ca două inimi să bată din nou în același ritm.
Doar totul e ca în filme,
Lasă-mă doar să-l termin de filmat.
Nu scrie ''The end'',
Eu voi face să fie Happy end.
Nu scrie ''The end'',
Eu voi face să fie Happy end.
Voi întoarce totul așa,
Ca două inimi să bată din nou în același ritm.
Doar totul e ca în filme,

Nu scrie ''The end'',
Eu voi face să fie Happy end.

For you

Clouds that used to be pink
They look broken today
Will be lost, they will be lost
Every sunrise of a child
That doesn't know his destiny
Will be lost, it will be lost
 
Hey, the universe is for you
Don't punish us like this
Help me, make me smile, give me your hand
Don't let birds be without flight
Don't let rivers be without a song of love
 
Trees' leaves springing
And others that are almost dead
Will be lost, they will be lost
Even the mutter of the wind
Has already become violent
Will be lost, it will be lost
 
Nature, inspiration
Of each one, of you and I
Cries almost heartbroken
Come, let's give her hope
To give us a better place
To live happy
 
There is always a rose in a poem
There is always a moon in every song
I couldn't be any other way
We are all part of something so perfect
So perfect
 
Hey, the universe is for you
Don't punish us like this
Help me, make me smile, give me your hand
Don't let birds be without flight
Don't let rivers be without a song of love
 
Hey, the universe is for you
Don't punish us like this
Help me, make me smile, give me your hand
Don't let birds be without flight
Don't let rivers be without a song of love
 
Hey, the universe is for you
Don't punish us like this
Help me, make me smile, give me your hand
Don't let birds be without flight
Don't let rivers be without a song of love
 
Hey, the universe is for you
Don't punish us like this
Help me, make me smile, give me your hand
Don't let birds be without flight
Don't let rivers be without a song of love
 
The universe is for you
The universe is for you
 
There is always a rose in a poem
There is always a moon in every song
I couldn't be any other way
We are all part of something so perfect
So perfect
 
Hey, the universe is for you
Don't punish us like this
Help me, make me smile, give me your hand
Don't let birds be without flight
Don't let rivers be without a song of love
 
Hey, the universe is for you

Don't punish us like this...

(Hey, how have you been?)
 
Again on the same couch
How does it feel to be the one people meet after they've hit the rock bottom?
I used to come here gladly, (aha), I was searching for my soul
But one can't control themselves (Well yeah that's true...)
Dear diary
During the day I concentrated on inhaling
And during the evening to be quiet (shhh)
I'm waiting for every difficult morning
Every single night and keep count of them (Great)
 
And you're the one who decides
What is wrong and what is right? (Well I wouldn't exactly phrase it that way...)
Being stubborn,
When the mouth says scurrilous shit
Yackety-yack
This is an inquisition
Interest sponsors my own promo video
A big rabbit, Donnie Darko
Egg cartons are filling my walls
Guests who know less say
'What a nice home studio'
 
No, the heaven is falling
I won't clean or do the dishes anymore
It's futile
The recorder knocks, horrible laughter on the cord
I repent, I can't keep my mouth shut
I'm waiting on the doormat, next to the mail slot
That could they finally visit
Between the shades I'm lurking completely alone
That who is the one following me outside on the shade of the eaves
 
Psycho, psy-psycho-cho
What a pity, alas, how much we have to cope with
Woe, if you just could by any means keep it at the minimum
Psycho

Pain is just a sensation
Ambulance is just a ride
I can feel myself safe
Until I notice that my home is closed, oops
Scapegoat of the school social worker
The sick mind is the one blocking the toilets
And not any ignorant kid
They don't tend to
They're the ones who raised you too
 
I'm sorry for existing
I am not sick, not even when having cholera
I am listening to my neighbours like I would be working at Sonera 1
A pizza guy on your door: 'Hello, here's the pizza'
Don't open
Treatment plan meeting, room 10
Ten people, ten times
The feelings aren't going to die
Even when each time comparing to the previous one
 
The only pulse is impulse
Went two-folded
I have the power to turn the waters to wines
I wriggled on the cross, give me a kibbutz
On the mirror, I see Pertti Pasanen, Petri Gerdt and the Number of the Beast
Six Six Sicko
I am more than healthy
But I'm still spending my weekends here

The Two Birds

We're two birds, on the stranger branches,
Neither telling a story, nor singing and talking,
We didn't fly so long that we forgot how to fly,
We remained on the way, and we forgot to reach destination,
 
No friend, no greeting, no one with a message,
We're alone on a tree, in a plain desert, without a shelter,
Our heads in each other's wings, yet we're still in need of a glance,
We're virtuous, innocent, and faultless
Free of words, full of sighs,
 
We're two birds, on the stranger branches,
Neither telling a story, nor singing and talking,
We didn't fly so long that we forgot how to fly,
We remained on the way, and we forgot to reach destination,
 
Though we die every winter,
Yet we revive in the spring,
 
Our cold bodies are impatient for the sunshine's touch,
Until revisit of spring, our recourse is but patience,
Patience, patience, recourse is but patience,
 
We're two birds, on the stranger branches,
Neither telling a story, nor singing and talking,
We didn't fly so long that we forgot how to fly,
We remained on the way, and we forgot to reach destination.

White parasol

Please, be honest
Let me hear your feelings
A jazmine in the hair
Takes a shower in the summer
 
The blue sky becomes esmerald
By taking me out
You don't pretend to not recognize me
You're someone insecure
 
On the shore there's a white parasol
My heart is a hourglass
I want to know you
It's a premonition of love
 
On a dinghy that cuts the wind
It's fine if you take me
Your eyes that make a little shadow
Are so wonderful
 
If you connect my tears with a thread
They make a pearl necklace
To you, indifferent
I want to give it
 
On the shore there's a white parasol
The answer is in the wind
I want to know you
It's a premonition of love

Maine e pentru totdeauna

Sufletul ne-a unit,
cu doar un sarut ca martor.
fiecare bataie a inimii promitea
ca urma sa fii
mereu cu mine.
 
Azi totul s-a schimbat
ai urmat alt drum
dar viata mea a ramas
toata pe buzele tale
toata cu tine.
 
Iti spune o inima disperata
sa te intorci langa mine
ca viata fara iubirea ta nu a mai fost la fel
Te rog din suflet sa iti aduci aminte
ca ai jurat sa nu ma pierzi
am promis ca nu se va termina niciodata
ca maine e pentru totdeauna ...
 
Pe pielea mea
simt in continuare lipsa mainilor tale
inca incerc sa inteleg
de ce destinul
a vrut sa ne pacaleasca.
 
Iti spune o inima disperata
sa te intorci langa mine
ca viata fara iubirea ta nu a mai fost la fel
Te rog din suflet sa iti aduci aminte
ca ai jurat sa nu ma pierzi
am promis ca nu se va termina niciodata
ca maine e pentru totdeauna ...
 
Stiu ca e
o speranta ce nu moare
o lumina si o privire
ce ne va regasi.
 
Te rog din suflet sa iti aduci aminte
ca ai jurat sa nu ma pierzi
am promis ca nu se va termina niciodata
 
ca maine e pentru totdeauna ...

Parallel Spec

Positive rap based on negative reasons
Ambiguous tapping by smartphone
A suit for job interviews, a sullen look
I know they don't look good on me
'Don't you realize that lyrics void of reality aren't catchy at all?'
A sulky look guy wearing high-class brand glasses
With no lenses told me so
 
Parallel spec
 
'A funky girl pretending to be crying...'
Writing this, I laughed in spite of myself
My feelings will never come across
I just simply put them on funky sounds
Even if I sing looking directly into your eyes
Bounced back my gaze vanishes into thin air
Breaking up, running parallel with each other
You and I, parallel spec
 
This is a game devised by that careful, well prepared guy
I'm sure we're in parallel cycles that never intersect
'Destined to be like this all along, I'm sorry'
That's how it is
 
Even the rain swept me away
I was lost in shadows
Believing that you would hear my voice
Even the rain fooled me
Take my hazy heart somewhere far, far away, please
 
Rai no rai rai rai
No reason is needed for
Rai no rai rai rai
Singing vile lyrics as usual today
Rai no rai rai rai
I'm certain that I'll be disliked by people again tomorrow
Rai no rai rai rai
That's why I'll write malicious lyrics again
 
Parallel spec
 
This is a game devised by that careful, well prepared guy
I'm sure we're in parallel cycles that never intersect
'Destined to be like this all along, I'm sorry'
That's how it is
 
Even the rain swept me away
I was lost in shadows
Believing that you would hear my voice
Even the rain fooled me
Take my hazy heart somewhere far, far away, please
 
Can someone tell me now?
How far these parallel lines go?
Are they keep going?
Leaving me behind?
 
Even the rain swept me away
I was lost in shadows
Believing that you would hear my voice
Even the rain fooled me
Take my hazy heart somewhere far, far away, please

Song for a missed meeting

I know
that I,
I never looked back
I always asked too much
of me, of everyone
 
and I don't even know
if you will remember
the nights in which I threw
everything away
 
why is it
that walking beside the sun in João Pinheiro
wasn't enough for me?
 
And life taught me
what I made of that place
I didn't see you
 
From my own
empty words
there was nothing to learn

For A Real Change

You are the President, for the change
My people are tired of being stolen from
A dark yesterday, you will care for us
 
With you and Digong, corruption will disappear
We are Philipinos, let us make the change
We support you for progress
 
You and me, all of you are with Rodrigo
Duterte is for real change
 
Take a look at those chronic crimes
The rape, drugs, and robbery must be stopped
 
We are Philipinos, let us make the change
We support you for progress
 
You and me, all of you are with Rodrigo
Duterte is for real change
 
You and me, all of you are with Rodrigo
Duterte is for real change

The Little Flower In The Garden


The little flower in the garden
The little flower in the garden
The little flower in the garden
She promised to that she would take me
 
The little flower of the mountain
The little flower of the mountain
The little flower of the mountain
Pays no attention to me at all
 
Come, let's go to the island,
Come, let's go to the island,
Come, let's go to the island,
You and I, and your mom
 
Come, let's go to where you speak of
Come, let's go to where you speak of
Come, let's go to where you speak of
There, where the birds build nests
 
The little flower in the garden
The little flower in the garden
The little flower in the garden
She promised to that she would take me

Cradle for Hana

Beautiful flower
Unmatched purity
Your dream I must watch over
April breeze
Come and get some rest,
In my arms he sleeps already
I'll protect you with my love
Sleep, little one, you'll grow up someday
Your little palms
Nice flowers are
and your cheeks are pink
spring makes me feel
Your face is a beautiful flower
full of the candor of April
I'll protect you with my love
Sleep, little one, it shines for you
and the light

Umbrella

Have you thought about
How it is with umbrellas
I used to only think about them when it rained
I left mine behind on a wet and dirty bus floor this morning
Didn't remember it until now
Hours away and too late
 
There are days
Where the street is covered in nice umbrellas
People cling to them as if life depended on it
As if it was a lover they held onto so faithfully
But when the sky is empty, the street is full
Of old umbrellas left behind
 
And everyone who
Has left them behind won't miss them
No, they won't give them a thought until the next time they need them
They won't go back to look for them
No, they'll go out to buy a new one
Who cares about a forgotten umbrella
 
Like a Christmas tree in January
Like the winner of last year's prize
Like the shot no one takes
Like yesterday's newspaper
 
And it's about
So much more than umbrellas
It's about only meaning something when you're needed
It's about being forgotten and taken for granted
Take care of the umbrella you have
It's what gives you shelter when it rains
It's what gives you shelter when it rains

Paradise

How you feel How you feel
Landscape with snow
Are you here Are you here
I know it's not a dream.
A cool wind sound
No-one
 
So be with you
That's right Every day Every night
Every day I'm tired and tired
Far away Far away Fade out
 
Wherever you go
I'll be there.
If we are together,
There is paradise
So we go anywhere
I'll save you forever.
You're the one forever
 
How you feel How you feel
South wind
Are you here Are you here
You and I laughing
Like a child
Without any thought
Feel so good
 
That's right Anywhere Anytime
I will present you sweet happiness.
Throw out worries far away
 
Wherever you go
I will not change
Time has stopped
There is paradise
So we go
I'll love you forever.
Only one forever
 
You're the one
Only one forever
 
Wherever you go
I'll be there.
If we are together,
There is paradise
So we go anywhere
I'll save you forever.
You're the one forever
 
You're the one forever
Only one forever
 
How you feel How you feel
Dreamlike Landscape
Are you here Are you here
My happiness is you.

All mine

My [poor little] heart over here
is asking me for an aspirin,
because it has a headache
for thinking about you all the time (lararirari)
 
It saw your lips with mine, dancing their own tango,
it saw me yearn for your soul,
it also saw the diminishing shyness
of the naked Moon here with the Sun (lararara)
 
It saw me knocking on the door
of the one that beats over there in your chest.
It heard me chat with yours and confess
all of its secrets (oh oh oh)
 
[You're] all mine, with both your hurry and your caution
With how you love to laugh.
With your side of my bed
and our sleepless nights [together].
I didn't see you coming [into my life like this]!1
 
I want to love you so much, to eat you up with my eyes 2
and peek into your balcony.
Now the sea has 'eyelashes'3
because God wanted it that way.
I won't share you [with anyone], I don't want to share you, yeah.
 
I blame my inability to keep myself from loving you,
not because I would just want to kiss you.
I was swimming in the direction of your cheek
but the tide [helped us and] spun your face around to me (larari)4
 
Knocking on the door
of the one that beats there in your chest.
and amorously confessing
all my secrets (oh wow wow).
 
[You're] all mine, with both your hurry and your caution
With how you love to laugh.
With your side of my bed
and our sleepless nights [together].
I didn't see you coming [into my life like this]!
 
I want to love you so much, to eat you up with my eyes
and to peek into your balcony.
Now the sea has 'eyelashes'
because God wanted it that way.
I won't share you [with anyone], I don't want to share you
 
The heart has no flow charts for love,
it just wings it just like me.5
 
[You're] all mine, with both your hurry and your caution
With how you love to laugh.
With your side of my bed
and our sleepless nights [together].
I didn't see you coming [into my life like this]!

and to peek into your balcony.

I won't share you [with anyone], I don't want to share you, yeah!
 
  • 1. You came out of nowhere / I didn't expect this!
  • 2. Literally it's closer to 'I'd take a bite out of your look!' but this fits better
  • 3. not sure if 'pestañas' has another slang meaning by itself - only other meaning I found is 'quemar pestañas' which means 'burn midnight oil' = do things at night
  • 4. I believe it describes him trying to kiss her cheek, but the tide / waves spun her around from her profile to face him, ending up with him kissing her lips
  • 5. literally 'heart has no schemes (pre-made plans) for love, it just sets itself adrift just like me'

The complaint

Versions: #2
Half way down the road
it's time I told you
the things I love are not these
elsewhere, elsewhere did I begin
 
In truth and in the lies
I tell you and confess
that I've walked this life
as though another, and not myself
 
As much as someone might be wary
as much as they may chase it
it will always, always be too late
there is no second life

Paradise (낙원)

Versions: #3
Marathon, marathon
Life is long, take it slow
42.195
At its end is full of paradise of dreams.
 
But really, the world is different from what’s promised.
We have to run, we have to step on it
When they fire the signal
You, without a destination
Without any scenery
Until you’re out of breath
You need to you need to
 
It’s okay to stop and stand
You don’t need to run without knowing the reason at all
it’s okay to not have a dream
If there are brief moments when you can feel happiness
It’s okay to stop and stand
Now (we/you) don’t run without knowing the purpose
It’s okay to not have a dream
All the breaths you exhale are already in paradise
 
We dream our dream from someone else (Like debt)
We learn that we must become great (Like the light)
Your dream, in reality is a burden
If only the future is the dream
Then what was it that I dreamed last night?
It’s okay if the name of the dream is different
Buying a laptop next month
Or just eating and sleeping
Or just having lots of money doing nothing
As if dream must be something so grandiose
Just be anyone
We deserve a life
Whether it’s big or small, you’re just you
 
But really, the world is different from what’s promised.
We have to run, we have to step on it
When they fire the signal
You, without a destination
Without any scenery
Until you’re out of breath
You need to you need to
 
It’s okay to stop and stand
You don’t need to run without knowing the reason at all
it’s okay to not have a dream
If there are brief moments when you can feel happiness
It’s okay to stop and stand
Now (we/you) don’t run without knowing the purpose
It’s okay to not have a dream
All the breaths you exhale are already in paradise
 
I don’t have a dream
At times, it’s scary to dream
Just living like this
Just surviving, this is my small dream
To dream, to hold the dream
To breathe, is at times too hard
Telling me so-and-so lives like this, lives like that
The world pours curses at me.
 
Yeah,
The world doesn’t have the right to curse you
Because it never taught how to dream in the first place
Because it’s a dream that was made up
Sleep talking of tears
Waking you up from the nightmares, for you
Let’s try to smile every day now, in that paradise
 
It’s okay to stop and stand
You don’t need to run without knowing the reason at all
It’s okay to not have a dream
All the breaths you exhale are already in paradise
 
Stop runnin’ for nothin’ my friend
Now, stop this foolish race
Stop runnin’ for nothin’ my friend
All the breaths you exhale are already in paradise
 
Stop runnin’ for nothin’ my friend
A dream that everyone dreams is not needed
Stop runnin’ for nothin’ my friend
All the words that create you are already in paradise

Paranoia

Versions: #2
We are in the trenches, digging pits
We miss seeing explosions.
Yankees are roaming at the border,
and they do not know that we are nearby.
 
And stars smiled at us from the skies.
You always play at night –
So we’ll sew wings on each other
and I will fly and you will fly…
 
The dream is the length of paranoia –
I see a dream thr length of paranoia.
 
We shifted letters in a word,
We studied the Kama Sutra,
Consumed love in excess –
Near the border, in the morning.
 
Then clouds smiled at us in the sky.
We were spotted, we were shot down.
Maybe, if we’d used a silk thread…
Maybe, they would not reach us here.
 
The dream is the length of paranoia –
I see a dream the length of paranoia.
 
Sidewalks smell of soap.
Wow, we got into Heaven.
Your face is frozen
with sadness…
 
But don’t give it a second thought – we are OK,
We are up here, high up as we wanted to be.
We will mend the wounded wings.
Congratulations, we have made it.
 
The dream is the length of paranoia –
I see a dream the length of paranoia.

For Agnes

two months have passed
i really found it difficult
of the happenings i can't understand
 
and thinking unendlessly
 
oh how long has the dream
the would-be life in the future
in two months that slipped by
my thoughts and tomorrow went along
 
just remember friend
the things we shared
in two months that passed
is like two centuries in thoughts
 
always put in mind
that I am like a plant
that will wither when not watered
and a hope I also will lose

Para Para Sakura (Cantonese)

what is this? It is cherry blossom!
If the cherry blossoms bloom to fall
Like a short tail
Do you have a feeling?
If the mouth looks the same
Close it to cooperate?
Are you willing to enter?
(such as the main character of the cartoon swing)
If we have love
Joints are softened
(Like a pointer like a dance)
Rotating high, medium and low
Change left and right
Look at the cherry blossoms
Come and dance with me
Such as cherry blossoms, but midsummer
Love is not tight
Almost change
Like a body like an icy building
Is it warm without holding it?
Is it not pleasant?
(such as the main character of the cartoon swing)
If we have love
Joints are softened
(Like a pointer like a dance)
Rotating high, medium and low
Finally turned out the fireworks
Look at the cherry blossoms
Come and dance with me

Bohemian lights for Elisa

Bohemian lights were illuminating
As you were leaving the Academy
The clumsy walk
Of your feet disoriented
On both sides of reality
Dancing girl and I behind
 
From your steely calves
I was hanging my glances
As I was plotting
Where, how, how and and when
Can one approach a youthful lass
It's so hard to get the courage
 
And to decidedly cry
'Do you have the time, please?'
 
And today hanging by your laughter
I'm a madman in the cornice
Doing a balancing act for Elisa
From your tiny breasts
The minutes overflow
And make out of ten o'clock
An injustice
 
Bohemian lights in every tooth
You answered with a smile
'There's a clock right in front of you!
It's twenty to nine...
And at home they dine at ten o'clock...
Why don't you treat me to coffee?'
 
A backwards reversal
And Don Juan became Doña Ines
 
With more yearning that expertise
You unbutton my shirt
A kiss for every button for Elisa
And lost amid your hair
I'm a saint gone to Heaven
Without ever stepping into mass
 
Bohemian lights for Elisa
Bohemian lights for Elisa
 
And today hanging by your laughter
I'm a madman in the cornice
Doing a balancing act for Elisa
From your tiny breasts
The minutes overflow
And make out of ten o'clock
An injustice

I'll Fight for the Filipino People

Versions: #2
I keep repeating this one question in my mind
why do I have to judge myself for what I feel inside
what kind of rule must we obey until we can be heard
must we be well-to-do or wealthy in our world
 
and even if my body aches from head to toe
I always keep a silent face , no one can ever know
although my heart is bleeding, not anyone can see
the one thing that matters is, my country 'tis of glee
 
I will fight for you anywhere, In your name I will go
I am pinoy, with you, hand in hand
I will fight for you anytime, I would give my life for you
I will fight for you - the people of my land
 
if you are dreaming for the country with a plan
either to help each other out, or give honor to our land
no one will wonder who you are, either rich or poor is right
if it is for our land, then together we will fight
 
I will fight for you anywhere, In your name I will go
I am pinoy, you are Pinoy, too
I will fight for you anytime, I would give my life for you
I will fight for you - for Filipino
 
I will fight for you - for the people of my land
I will fight for you - for my native land.

One, Two, Three

Where can I find my place
I just follow advice
Ok, let's be placed
And so everything is at it's place again
 
One, Two, Three,
Nothing else
Hey hey, let's be like others
Who is, this is how they find bliss
 
In the middle of everything I stay and stand
I guess the doubt will get to power
Similar as how you see with me
Earth is just sand flying in front of us
 
In the middle of everything I stay and stand
I guess the doubt will get to power
Similar as how you see with me
Earth is just sand flying in front of us
Burning
 
Alone you can't see everything
Then there's advice
There's also people to explain
So easy is this solution
 
One, Two, Three,
Nothing else
Hey hey, let's be like others
Who is, this is how they find bliss
 
In the middle of everything I stay and stand
I guess the doubt will get to power
Similar as how you see with me
Earth is just sand flying in front of us
 
In the middle of everything I stay and stand
I guess the doubt will get to power
Similar as how you see with me
Earth is just sand flying in front of us
Burning

Love and Money

Istanbul and Ankara,
I've found you finally,
We should be, together,
Innocent as the sleeping cats...
 
All I want was this
Sometimes I didn't have, sometimes I had
All I want was this
Sometimes I didn't have, sometimes I had
 
Love and money, love and money, love and money, love and money...
Love and money, love and money, love and money...
 
In this obscure world,
Always, you were in my mind,
We should be, together,
You and your secrets...
 
All I want was this
Sometimes I didn't have, sometimes I had
All I want was this
Sometimes I didn't have, sometimes I had
 
Love and money, love and money, love and money, love and money...
Love and money, love and money, love and money...
