Mahal, tahan na
Di mo kasalanan
Kung hindi ikaw
Ang pinili niya

Mahal, tahan na
Di ka nagkulang
Di niya lang batid
Ang iyong nararamdaman

Mahal, tahan na
Di na magbabago
Ang sakit at pighati
Na ramdam ng ‘yong puso

Every day she walked
Trailing people she loves
Wishing they’d look back
Give her a glance
Or stop for a little while
Though they never did
So she begun to collect scraps
Like pieces they left over
Or trash they throw at her
Useless little things
That she kept as mementos
For when she goes to sleep
Because she believes
Its a little better
To have a piece of them
Than nothing at all

Everyone loves the sun
Who brightens everyone’s day
They talk about her light, her warmth,
her radiance on display
She’s perfect, they always say

But what happens when
The clouds begin to form
When the sun’s brightness dims
and out comes the storm?
She’s still there, isn’t she?

But why isn’t she loved
the same way anymore?

My heart’s gone weary
It’s shrivelling, it’s hiding
And it hurts like hell
