Spots of lights
Closed my eyes
None came to sights
Mind was filled with lies

It was a hard day
No one was left gay
Then it appeared: the sun's ray
It was time for another play

And so the actress came
With bright smile on and heels
Everybody knew her name
But never what she truly feels

Mask to her soul
Makeup to her face
She finished it all with grace
And for that had always been praised

In pretending, she has awards
For running away instead towards
Head's down, head's up, cover up
The rising truth was bottled up

It was easier to put her thumbs up in the sky
Than cry the tears she's been hiding inside
She says she is strong
She's not too small
And so she continues to play the game on

Then my mind was filled with lies
Nothing right came to sights
That I had to close my eyes
To see the spots of lights...

Days had evaporated
And leaves had been blown by wind
Fingers had turned another page
The pen breathed out a new story to tell
Time had sped away, leaving almost everything
Old and forgotten
Forgotten and old
A newborn beginning had started
As the young mind grew wiser
And an innocent heart became learned
And I blew my candle, thinking still
Of what to make of this chance,
This new opportunity that
I have held and grasped
This gift that I was fortunate
To be blessed with
This life, my life...

It is up above the world like stars
But then you see it in the horizon
More days shall come and go
But only seems a blink away
It feels like you're getting there
When in fact you're just about to run
Within hand's reach, but you shall spend
Tireless tries to achieve it
You want to be there but frightened by the thought
Of your presence at the end
Because you won't know, you'll never know
If Death is there awaiting
Or the finish line is where
The Dawn of new beginnings...

I look at all your pictures
Reminiscing our times together
We were inseparable creatures
I really thought we'd last forever


Remembering your smile
That always brighten my day
Hearing your sweet voice from a mile
It makes me feel okay


Sometimes I long for you
But they scream everything's fake
Still, without you my world's blue
But someday I know I'll be awake


I'll come to my senses
Realize that you and me can never be
Not even the wind can bring me happiness
For far from you I will always be


Yes, this is to my sky
The one that I can never touch
No matter how high I fly,
Down from afar will I watch...
