I just can't think straight
Your eyes leave me blank in bliss
They stare right through me

Nung ika’y umalis at lumisan
At ako’y iwanan ng tuluyan
Tanging sinabi sa sarili ko
Kaya ko ‘to

Nung nalamang ika’y nag-iisa
At ako’y pilit na nagpapakasaya
Sambit ng pusong nagpapalakas
Kaya ko ‘to

Nung bawat sakit ay pilit bumalik
Bawat pagkukulang at bawat pasakit
Tinibayan ang loob at sinabing
Kaya ko ‘to

Nung sumagi sa isip ang bawat alaala
Sa bawat ngiti at bakas ng ligaya
Pilit kong pinagiisipan
Kaya ko ‘to?

Nung ika’y hinahanap ng puso
Sinisigaw sa bawat pintig nito
Naguguluhan na ako
Kaya ko ba?

Nung nakikita kang masaya sa iba
At sinampal sakin ang katotohanang
Hindi ka na babalik pa
Kaya ko pa ba?

Nung napagtanto na ika’y mahal pa
At sakin ay ayaw kang mawala
Gusto kong isigaw sa mundo
Hindi ko kaya ‘to

Nung sa’yo ay nagsusumamo
Nakikiusap na muling maging tayo
Ngunit tuluyang binitiwan na ako
Hindi ko na kaya ‘to

Nung ika’y masaya na sa kanya
At ako’y nilimot sa pag-iisa
Tanging lumabas sa aking paghinga
Ayoko ng ganito

Ngayong tuluyan ka nang nawala
Bakas mo ay pilit hinuhugasan
Ngayon ko dapat isiping
“Kaya ko ‘to”

Sana’y makabangon na sa aking pagbagsak
Tumungkod sa sariling mga paa at ituloy ang landas
Pilit pinapaalala sa pusong nasawi
Kakayanin ko ‘to

Babangong muli sa bagong umaga
Gigising sa katotohanang wala ka na
Lalakad ng mag-isa kahit masakit
Lahat ng ito’y pilit kakayanin

Frustrations plague me
Bringing me down on my knees
Your smile brings me ease

Sometimes I just can't
take the pressure
Sometimes I just don't
Know what I should do
Sometimes I can't identify
Who am I supposed to be
Sometimes I just need
A time out to think

As much as I want to
Run away from all of this
I can't just give in
I still need to find you

I just need to breathe
inhale some fresh air
Take a break and assess
What happens next
So wait for me
As I think of a way
To get away from here
And come get you
To take you in my arms
And bring you to
Our share of paradise

It's 4am now
Still no trace of you in bed
What did I do wrong?

I miss you each night
This bed feels cold without you
Come back to me please

Heavy eyes slowly closing
Breathing gradually easing
Mind gently relaxing
Body surely falling
Reality falling asleep
As dreams come into focus
Old movie reels sweetly playing
Nostalgic as an autumn midnight

The darkness silently creeping
My friends are on their way
Laughing in my mind
Grinning all the way
Can you hear their fiendish voices?
Can you see their glowing eyes?
Do you hear their ghostly whispers?
Do you see them here tonight?

Meet my oldest friends
The shadows on my wall
With their hands cold as ice
And their eyes red as blood
With smiles of ghastly grins
And voices of shrieking glass
As darkness begins its embrace
Here they come at last

The shadows on my wall
My demons coming for me
My playmates in the dark
My addictive insanity
They’ll come and drag me
Bring me to their twisted paradise
And play with my shattered psyche
For a very long time

The darkness constricts my breathing
My nape cold and frozen
Chills running down my spine
Fear finally gripping in
Nightmares talking to me
Screaming and shouting at me
I can't get a grip of reality
Here comes the impending insanity

Save me from them
The shadows on my wall
They come for me tonight
And eat my sanity alive
Save me please
Cut these sinful bindings
As they drag me to
The hell and grave I opened
