the tune is yours to carry
in this wounded city with its
cr    a    cked        ribcage
that is trying to hold its heart the same

stillbreathing, still breathing

gawing sa 'yo ang himig na ito
sa isang bayang dumudugo
kanyang tadyang may  la  m a   t
ngunit nais pa ring hawakan ang puso

humihingapa, humihinga *pa

Everyday I die a little inside
alongside my heart.
But Love will continue on
like a Phoenix
reborn, re-beating,
in sync to the sunrise.
If God-willing,
I will wait...

I've known you for 8 years
and majority was spent standing
on cold frozen feet.

I saw, through the frost,
that you needed me and
I, you
to keep this fire burning and lit
through our life
because I know, that you know,
that we will be there for each other
no
matter
what.


And it was when
you brought the first torch towards me
did my feet melt
and I
*fell for you
