Uprooted
Time and time again
Transplanted from my comfort zone
To a new place where I have no friends
Shipped off
Away from those I love
Forced to start over from scratch
In a new and hostile living environment
Thrown out
Kicked to the curb
Sent sprawling to the pavement
Isolated once again from all I'm used to

Is it any wonder I'm messed up?
I've got nowhere to call my own
I've been forcefully torn away from
Every place I've ever called home
I saw a therapist the other day. He said I have adjustment issues. I'm inclined to believe him.

If I'd a little girl
I would call her Rose
Because it's light
And the world is missing some

I'd tell her to love
And simply be simple
And humble
Because the world needs some

If I had a little girl
I would call her Rose
Tell her to simply be herself
So the world can understand

I'd call her Rose
To flower the beds of our dead,
To bring a simple, kind little thing
In a world missing so much love
The world would be a much nicer place with less stupid rich egoistic people and more simple kind caring loving ones

Hello, kamusta ka? Ako po ulit ito.
Ayaw mo sumagot, ayaw mo kumibo.
At dahil ayaw ka, heto't basahin mo
Mga sal'tang tugma, tula ng pagsuyo.

Pinilit ang puso na kalimutan ka.
Nilunod ang isip sa 'king mga tula.
Pagkat winika mo na walang pag-asa
kaya 'di umulit, 'di na nag-usisa.

Ngunit nalaman ko sa 'king kaibigan
na noong Biyernes ika'y nakita n'ya.
Hinimok n'ya ako na muling subukan.
Kaya heto ako at may dalang tula.

Dahil paano ba itutuloy muli
ang daang naputol at tila nabungi?
Anong gagawin ko para mapangiti
ang labi at puso na dating tumanggi?

Marahil isip mo, "grabe ang baduy mo"
"sumulat ng tula, para mapansin ko".
Ayokong magsisi, ayokong magtanto
kung nagkulang ako sa kulit at suyo.

Itataya ko na sa 'ting kapalaran
kung itong tula ko'y may patutunguhan.
Kung ayaw mo pa rin, sa 'kin ay ayos lang.
Basta sa isip ko, walang nang sisihan.

Di ako nagsising bigyan ka ng rosas.
Gagawin ko uli, ibalik man ang oras.
Kung ika'y nangiti sa tula kong ito,
ikaw ba'y papayag na magkita tayo?
I am a broken man
Who doesn't know how broken he is
I am an addict
Who hates the drug



I am lonely



I can feel my isolation
Every night as the demons I dream of
Spill over into my waking life




I am lonely




I hurt the people I love
I act before I think
I am the most destructive force I know







I am lonely







I am so lonely
Every time your eyes told me
this was going to get better,
I strangled every nerve,
pushed them out of my skin.

And every time you told me to move on,
I broke my own bones,
but it was you
who I wanted to be hurt by it,
it was you I wanted to break.

Please tell me at least once I did.
