Sayo ko Ginawa
Sayo ko ginawa 'yung hindi ko
ginawa sa iba.
Sayo ko binaba 'yung pride ko.
Sayo ako unang natutong magsabi ng totoo, kahit nakakahiya, kahit nakakatakot.
Sayo ako unang natutong
humingi ng sorry, kahit feeling ko
ako naman talaga 'yung nasaktan.
Sayo ko sinubukan maging patient, kahit gusto ko nang sumuko.
Sayo ako naging open,
kahit dati sanay akong itago lahat.
I gave you the kind of love.
I never gave to anyone else.
Not because they didn't deserve it,
but because with you,
I felt safe enough to try.
I trusted you enough to break the walls
I built for years.
Hindi mo lang nakuha
ang best version ko
you got the rawest, the realest,
the softest part of me.
And maybe that's what hurts the most.
because I did everything differently, everything sincerely,
but in the end,
I still wasn't enough to make you stay.
I allowed myself to be vulnerable, showing you the sides of me
that I never dared to reveal
to anyone else.
You were the one I did
everything differently for.
I gave you a version of me.
I've never shown anyone.
I bent where I used to break.
I softened where I used to shut down.
I loved you in a way I didn't know I could and maybe that's why it hurts more, because I gave you the parts of me I never gave to anyone else.
