When things go south and you realize there is no one you can count,
sit in the corner and cry your heart out.

Your life is too dark for any of your friends to relate to;
no wonder they never wanted to listen to.

Write things down and listen to songs;
and you'll be cancelling out every sound.

Feeling everything and nothing at once,
this feeling of numbness along with agony,
You're being burnt alive but no one could ever see these mental wounds
It needs more than a thermometer to measure this heat and agitation

The mercury keeps dropping and your heart keeps burning
until the pain reach to a point where
everything and nothing matter anymore, nothing left but ashes and dusts
to a point where nothing left but emptiness

In books, you cried for those helpless
Now, here you are crying for yourself
And when you cry, you don't cry: no tears, no sobs,
not even a sad face
Just with your poker face that nobody could read

"This is just life" you mumbled, sometimes a little out loud
But what did you do wrong except being born?

Unnecessary line that I drew
So that I don't feel at risk
But it kills me also
So what should I do?

I'm still at risk
Like a rodent who can never be safe
You go with my flow
But I never have control

This fight has been going on for so long
And I have lost the same battle again
Go put my head on a spike
For I still list the things that you like

But what it's like for you?
What am I in your eyes?
When you smile,
Was I ever the reason why?

For me, you were
And will always be "the why"
So go put my head on a spike
For I never forget you, not even a slight.
a relationship that keeps going on and off only because of my own false

These days when I look at the sky
It feels like the end of the world
The sky so blue but it’s more like cyan in my eyes
May be I can’t see clearly cuz I cried a lot the night before
So i walked back in and to my couch
I lay there and slept with doubt
Daydreaming and day sleeping
Quite opposite things
But it is the sky who lies
And I’m the one who cries
Then I run
Run for miles, to the blue sky
To the one who would hold me tight when I’m not alright
But I was never alright
And there was no one who’d hold tight
So it was the sky who lied
And  I was the one who died...

Ignorance is a hidden blessing
You never knew you were lucky
'cause you didn't know
With great knowledge
Come the great responsibility
And that followed by the brutal torment
But I was young and ignorant
All I wanted was the amusement came from enlightenment

The more I know, the more I wish I never knew
People are sinners, this world is full of liars
They were in disguise in the form of angels in my once immature eyes
The moment I could see pass through their facade
My whole world did fall apart
Someone please save me from this cruel truth
I beg for mercy but to no avail
What was I thinking? Hysterically did I laugh
This was everything I ever wanted

Oh my dear,
You of all people...
Oh my dearest, how do I live with this truth?
You were the one thread I was holding
to keep me from falling into the endless abyss of despair
My dear, now I have to let you go after I had known
After I had known, you are not what you're claiming to be
You are one of those from whom you told me to avoid
I'd better listen to your words
So I'm better off leaving now

Goodbye love,
My love for you still burning bright in my heart
Which adds up to the torment I am now suffering
I sang the song you used to sing,
Bringing back the old you from my memory
But that only adds up more torments into my suffering
I'm falling, my love
I'm falling with nobody to catch me

Here I am, in the abyss
I looked up and saw a light
The light which is glowing brightest in her pretense
I think I will survive the rest of my days with the memory of you
Even though it adds to my torment
I'd cling onto the old you in whom I had found my safe haven
betrayal

Luck is about timing
The right timing is best luck ,
we can ever be blessed with

This tragic was started with a magic
A chemical, a bond what ever you may say
The right match was not an enough luck
Together we had all we ever wanted
But one thing we lacked
A good timing forged by the best luck
So now our hearts are broken
In the opposite of happy ever after

I'll find you in every soul I meet
You'll find me in every book you read
This curse doesn't have to end
We'll love again
We'll live merry
Keeping the very pain coming from
A love we once had lost

Welcome to my little world,
Take a seat and hear me speak
Things are a little bit different here
Happiness is the calm before another storm
Look at the birds, they don't sing happy songs
Rain doesn't often come but doesn't mean weather's fine
Everything's in black & white
Time runs backwards and future's no more
You and I are here in the Past
Don't ask me where other people are
They all had to leave just like you'll have to
While you're here, leave some sadness behind
It's in the air you breathe, in the ocean and even in the sky
So why don't you add some in this huge collection?
Have you noticed yet?
We are sitting but we aren't touching any ground
Apparently there is none, oh don't freak out
Things in my world just float around
We drift aimlessly here and there
Look around and enjoy your visit
It's comfy and cool here
Let's drift aimlessly together
Until you feel like "what's the point here?"
Then you leave me and my little world behind
Cuz me and my little world,
We can never be saved from this constant sadness and aimless floating.

Nature is slowly moving around us
One moment, there's a cloud
in the shape of something I love
And next second, it was just gone.

If we concentrate a little,
we can feel the sky moving in slow motion
The golden lining on leaves and branches
The flapping sounds of little wings
Added to them was the water sound from my aquarium
Nature is the only place I feel like home.

What are those little sparrows quarrelling about?
When did those flowers bloom?
How do those little birds remember their way back home?
There is no sign on the sky

Oh Mother Nature,
You are the mother I could trust
Embrace me in your arms and
Reveal all your wonderful secrets to my heart
How do you draw golden linings on everything the sunshine touches?
How do you wake the world up when I was crying in my lonely bed?
How do you move the sky too slowly but so fast at the same time?

Here I am looking at another group of clouds
They look like those hills I saw in Mandalay
And while I was writing the previous line,
they broke apart into shapeless ashes

All those climate changes and deforestations,
I thought it was you whom we must save
But when I'm at your home,
you seem so undamaged and
Did I realize, it is us
whom we must save.

You're gonna take over the world again
And we, the sinister human species,
will be washed away unwittingly
This will be the end and may be a new beginning
I don't feel sorry for us
I long for that day
When you will finally take over again
And everything will heal from the damage we had done.
