Got up early
  To roam around the city
  Different faces is all I see
  But they all have the same aura to me

They are women with fears
  On their faces are invisible tears
  Kind of tired of worrying
  And pulling the strings
  They want the best for their loved ones
  And keep them in a snug house

Behind the smiles
  Are hearts that are fragile
  Brave on the outside
  With all the anxieties they hide
  Loving and caring are their styles
  It's rare to see what's inside

They're ready for any battle
  Though they appear gentle
  Babies are indeed angels
  But aren't our mothers as well?
  We run to them when in need of help
  With things that are big or little

They get tired
  But doesn't mean they don't want this life
  They in fact pray for longer lives
  Scared of leaving us behind
  Full of unconditional love
  They ask God for the best for us

Love tangled with fears
  Thoughts we cannot hear
  They all exist for real
  Despite the love they show and feel
  I guess they come hand in hand
  Far beyond what we can understand

At times, they seem controlling
  And to the point of being irritating
  But they're the first to get proud
  Everytime we perform in the crowd
  I see both joy and sacrifice
  Shining bright at sunrise

The show must go on
Same goes for their situation
They wish there's a break too
Just a few minutes will do
And they're back on track again
Like how rain comes to an end

I am used to seeing happy faces
  But reality hits my senses
  When I became one of them
  Powerful life form called women
  As I roam around the city
  I realized, it wasn't just me

This is more than enough
I am floating with the clouds
I waited all my life
Now, we laugh out loud

I've prepared for this trip
My soul has been blessed
There are no what ifs
I am certainly at my happiest

The sunset view from our dark room
While you and I cuddle
I waited for this love to bloom
So much love, even my heart can't handle

You said, "let's forget everything even just for today."
I said, "I have already been living for this moment."
I feel your breath on my face
We can no longer stay just friends

I run on the sands
My dress flies in the wind
While you hold my hand
You realize all you want is me

You don't drink
But you got drunk on love
I hope this won't end in an eyeblink
I feel you within and above

The room echoes our sounds
We're giving in and going with it
Going crazy as we're getting drowned
To this intense heat is where we submit

We desire each other
Like we have no separate lives
Like we have found forever
Whilst tonight is our time

Tomorrow, we go; it's our last night
Our most indelible trip
And last dinner under the moonlight
Something we will forever keep

Just between you and me
And in the wildest corners of our minds
We will remain discreet
And treasure that one time
We were free
And called each other mine

I'm afraid it's all just pity
You don't deserve me
Or perhaps I don't deserve you
But one thing is for sure
Our lives have been crestfallen
I'm tired of being burdened

Gone as fast as it came
Who between us is to blame?
I've made a lot of wrong choices
But this one is the hardest
Didn't know what I got myself into
I'm no longer in love with you

No one understands
That I want to let go of your hand
All I anticipate is the worst
No one understands the hurt
When you don't see hope at all
And you have to stay just to not go wrong

What seemed a fairytale
Turned out to be our nightmare
Getting free is never an option
I have to stand on my decision
I guess I am stuck
I wish I could say time's up

I've not seen you for a year
I wanna touch you but you're not here
But I hear your voice everywhere I go
You've become a part of me
Without you even knowing it
I feel your presence though I'm alone

Fate has been tricky
All it does is play with me
A magnet that pulls me towards you
I'm tired of holding back
I want to give in to all the attacks
Dying to feel your breath on my face too

I wonder if you ever felt the same
Oh I must have gone insane
Fate has been unfair
I just laugh about the impossible
And I'm not waiting for your call
'Cause I'm used to being left in nowhere

There will never be you and me
But you live in my mind rent free
I guess fate has its own mind
When I am trying to forget you
It shows me things that remind me of you
Fate betrays me all the time

When I try to love you more
Fate gives me reasons to let you go
It counters all my moves
Like an opponent desperate to win
I do not know where to begin
Fate is a playful truth

But you are with me no matter the place
'Cause my mind memorizes your face
Let me know how to move on
'Cause I'm filled with the thoughts of you
Writing my feelings is all I can do
Words became my only weapon
To cope with what fate put on

You might be wondering
What this is implying
Or you already have a clue
So allow me to open the book

I knew I had seen your face before
Pretty sure 'twas on the same floor
It was nothing
Until I felt something
I was running out of air
But there you were
Coming my way
Making me survive the bad days

I go to work everyday
Hoping you tap my back again
Before I come back home
That's what I wait for before I go
I remember that one shift
Beside me was where you chose to sit
Two bad scores tried breaking my crayons
But I was too delighted to see what went on

Everything else gets blurred when you're near
All I know is that you are here
No word is enough
Is this just a crush?
It's wrong on so many levels
Just like a tragic novel
Yet it feels so right
Like there's nothing to hide

You are a dream at night
Where I see what I want in life
I chose to put the feelings aside
But I just can't contain what's burning inside
Does this make sense?
'Cause I'm tired of the pretense
Pretending I don't see you
When I've been preoccupied by you

I am sorry
If this may feel so pesky
But one of the things I've learned
Was it's enchanting to be adored
I hope you do right now
Although the world won't allow
Such kind of stuff
Brawling with the thoughts of you is tough

I would love us to remain casual
Even if meeting you has been magical
You do nothing
But there's so much love you bring
This confession is my honest truth
I wish I don't lose you
Even as a friend
I knew this is where it all ends

I can see us in the elevator mirror
You make me long for you even more
You keep appearing in my dreams
Like in this small paradise that's only known to me

The fire that's ready to set alight
Does not know who it will burn alive
Who cares when it's you all I see
In this small paradise that's seen by just me

Love gone bad found its way home
But it does feel so wrong
Why do we want what we can't get
And leave the one we once wanted?
Appears at exactly noon
Is this small paradise made for you

Both choices are equally bad
I'd rather take your hand
But mine has already been held
Didn't know a hallowed vow can be this cruel
Delusively getting out of the cage
Only to be in jail my mind made
The thought I could get free from him
While I know you're not into me
Gives me this hell of a dilemma
Living in a senseless drama

The elevator doors open
Our reflections glisten
That's when this small paradise
Fades before my eyes
