FIND YOUR WAY BACK HOME - DISHWALLA

There used to be a time
You're the only one that you could see
You built a wall to keep you free
You saw it all so perfectly

You divided everything
You had into a thousand parts or names
Made it easier to place the blame
But it never really was the same

But you forgot the reason why
You had to be alone to breathe
Something from your history
Or have you lost your memory?

Now it seems your baggage
Is the only thing than you can bring
You had a lie for everything
And now your world is crumbling

So now you find you're on your own
You find you're on your own
Trying to find your way back home
Trying to find your way back

You used to talk to God
But you gave up 'cause you couldn't see
Couldn't get from A to B
But were you ever really listening?

Enough's enough, you know
But then you never really had enough
Something more to fill you up
Maybe just a smaller cup

So now you find you're on your own
You find you're on your own
Trying to find your way back home
Trying to find your way back home

Used to think that
You would never be alone
But you're losing control
You find it hard to see at all
To find your way back

So now you find you're on your own
You find you're on your own
Trying to find your way back home
Trying to find your way back home

Used to be a time
When you divided everything you had
You had a lie for everything
Or were you ever really listening?

You used to talk to God
But you gave up
Then you really never had enough
Or have you lost your memory, memory?

But now you found you're on your own
Find your way back home

WONDERFUL - EVERCLEAR

I close my eyes when I get too sad
I think thoughts that I know are bad
Close my eyes and I count to ten
Hope it's over when I open them

I want the things that I had before
Like a Star Wars poster on my bedroom door
I wish I could count to ten
Make everything be wonderful again

Hope my mom and I hope my dad
Will figure out why they get so mad
Hear them scream, I hear them fight
Say bad words that make me want to cry

Close my eyes when I go to bed
And I dream of angels that make me smile
I feel better when I hear them say
Everything will be wonderful someday

Promises mean everything when you're little
And the world's so big
I just don't understand how
You can smile with all those tears in your eyes
Tell me everything is wonderful now

(Na na na na na na na)

Please don't tell me everything is wonderful now

I go to school and I run and play
I tell the kids that it's all okay
I like to laugh so my friends won't know
When the bell rings I just don't want to go home

Go to my room and I close my eyes
I make believe that I have a new life
I don't believe you when you say
Everything will be wonderful someday

Promises mean everything when you're little
And the world is so big
I just don't understand how
You can smile with all those tears in your eyes
When you tell me everything is wonderful now

I don't want to hear you tell me everything is wonderful now

I don't want to hear you say
That I will understand someday
No, no, no, no
I don't want to hear you say
We both have grown in a different way
No, no, no, no
I don't want to meet your friends
And I don't want to start over again
I just want to my life to be the same
Just like it used to be
Some days I hate everything
I hate everything
Everyone and everything
Please don't tell me everything is wonderful now

I don't want to hear you tell me everything is wonderful now

HOW'S IT GONNA BE - THIRD EYE BLIND

I'm only pretty sure
That I can't take anymore
Before you take a swing
I wonder what are we fighting for

When I say out loud
I wanna get out of this
I wonder is there anything
I'm gonna miss

I wonder how it's going to be
When you don't know me
How's it going to be
When you're sure I'm not there

How's it going to be
When there's no one there to talk to
Between you and me
'Cause I don't care
How's it going to be
How's it going to be

Where we used to laugh
There's a shouting match
Sharp as a thumbnail scratch
A silence I can't ignore

Like the hammock by the doorway
We spent time in, swings empty
I don't see lightning like last fall
When it was always about to hit me

I wonder how's it going to be
When it goes down
How's it going to be
When you're not around

How's it going to be
When you found out there was nothing
Between you and me
'Cause I don't care
How's it going to be

How's it going to be
When you don't know me anymore
And how's it going to be

Wanna get myself back in again
The soft dive of oblivion
I wanna taste the salt of your skin
The soft dive of oblivion, oblivion

How's it going to be
When you don't know me anymore
How's it going to be
How's it going to be
How's it going to be

LIKE A STONE - AUDIOSLAVE

Like A Stone

On a cobweb afternoon
In a room full of emptiness
By a freeway I confess
I was lost in the pages

Of a book full of death
Reading how we'll die alone
And if we're good we'll lay to rest
Anywhere we want to go

In your house I long to be
Room by room patiently
I'll wait for you there like a stone
I'll wait for you there alone

And on my deathbed I will pray
To the Gods and the Angels
Like a pagan to anyone
Who will take me to Heaven

To a place I recall
I was there so long ago
The sky was bruised
The wine was bled
And there you lead me on

In your house I long to be
Room by room patiently
I'll wait for you there like a stone
I'll wait for you there alone, alone

Alone I read
Until the day was gone
And I sat in regret
Of all the things I've done

For all that I've blessed
And all that I've wronged
In dreams until my death
I will wonder on

In your house I long to be
Room by room patiently
I'll wait for you there like a stone
I'll wait for you there alone, alone

SOMEWHERE OUT THERE - OUR LADY PEACE

Last time I talked to you
You were lonely and out of place
You were looking down on me
Lost out in space

We laid underneath the stars
Strung out and feeling brave
I watched the red orange glow
I watched you float away

Down here in the atmosphere
Garbage and city lights
You've gone to save your tired soul
You've gone to save their lives

I turned on the radio
To find you on satellite
I'm waiting for this sky to fall
I'm waiting for a sign

All we are
Is all so far

[Chorus]
You're falling back to me
You're a star that I can see, yeah
I know you're out there
Somewhere out there
You're falling out of reach
Defying gravity, yeah
I know you're out there
Somewhere out there

Hope you remember me
When you're home sick and need a change
I miss your purple hair
I miss the way you taste

I know you'll come back someday
On a bed of nails, I'll wait
I'm praying that you don't burn out
Or fade away

All we are
Is all so far

THAT I WOULD BE GOOD - ALANIS MORISSETTE

That I would be good even if I did nothing
That I would be good even if I got the thumbs down
That I would be good if I got and stayed sick
That I would be good even if I gained ten pounds

That I would be fine even if I went bankrupt
That I would be good if I lost my hair and my youth
That I would be great if I was no longer queen
That I would be grand if I was not all knowing

That I would be loved even when I numb myself
That I would be good even when I am overwhelmed
That I would be loved even when I was fuming
That I would be good even if I was clingy

That I would be good even if I lost sanity
That I would be good whether with or without you

SOMEWHERE ONLY WE KNOW - KEANE

I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete

Oh simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

I came across a fallen tree
I felt the branches of it looking at me
Is this the place we used to love?
Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?

Oh simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

And if you have a minute, why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know

Oh simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old and I need someone to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

And if you have a minute, why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go? So why don't we go?

Oh, this could be the end of everything
So why don't we go somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know
Somewhere only we know

COME AROUND - RHETT MILLER

I'm dressed all in blue
And I'm rememberin' you
And the dress you wore
When you broke my heart

I'm depressed upstairs
And I'm rememberin' where
And when and how and why
You have to go so far

Am I gonna be lonely for the rest of my life?
Am I gonna be lonely for the rest of my life?
I'm gonna be lonely for the rest of my life
Unless you come around, so come around

I'm dressed all in white
And I remember the night
You came onto me
And opened up my heart

I was hollow then
Till you filled me in
Now I'm empty again
I should have never let it start

Am I gonna be lonely for the rest of my life?
Am I gonna be lonely for the rest of my life?
I'm gonna be lonely for the rest of my life
Unless you come around, so come around

CANNONBALL - DAMIEN RICE

There's still a little bit of your taste in my mouth
Still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
It's still a little harder to say what's going on

There's till a little bit of your ghost, your weakness
Still a little bit of your face I haven't kissed
You step a little closer each day
That I cant say what's going on

Stones taught me to fly
Love, it taught me to lie
Life, it taught me to die
So it's not hard to fall
When you float like a cannonball

There's still a little bit of your song in my ear
There's still a little bit of your words I long to hear
You step a little closer to me
So close that I can't see what's going on

And stones taught me to fly
Love, it taught me to lie
Life, taught me to die
So it's not hard to fall
When you float like a cannon

Stones taught me to fly
Love, it taught me to cry
So come on courage
Teach me to be shy
'Cause it's not hard to fall

And I don't wanna scare her
It's not hard to fall
And I don't wanna lose
It's not hard to grow
When you know that you're just don't know

FAR BEHIND - CANDLEBOX

Now maybe I didn't mean to treat you bad
But I did it anyway
And now maybe
Some would say your life was sad
But you lived it anyway
And so maybe
Your friends they stand around they watch you crumble
As you fall to the ground
And someday
Your friends they stand beside as you were flying
Oh you were flying oh so high
But then some day people look at you for what they call their own
They watch you suffer
Yeah they hear you calling home
But then some day we could take our time
To brush the leaves aside so you can reach us
But you left me far behind
Now maybe I didn't mean to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway
Now maybe some would say you're left with what you had
But you couldn't share the pain
No, no, no
Couldn't share the pain they watch you suffer
Now maybe I could have made my own mistakes
But I live with what I've known
And then maybe we might share in something great
But won't you look at where we've grown
Won't you look at where we've gone
But then someday comes tomorrow holds a sense of what I fear for you
in my mind
As you trip the final line
And that cold day when you lost control
Shame you left my life
So soon you should have told me
But you left me far behind
Now maybe I didn't meant to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway
Now maybe some would say you're left with what you had
But you couldn't share the pain
No, no, no
Now maybe I didn't mean to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway
No maybe some would say you're left with what you had
But you couldn't share the pain
I said times have changed your friends
They come and watch you crumble to the ground
They watch you suffer
Yeah they hold you down
Hold you down
Maybe brother maybe love I didn't mean to treat you bad
But you left me far behind
Left me far behind
Left me far behind

OUT OF MY HEAD - FASTBALL

Sometimes I feel like I'm drunk behind the wheel
the wheel of possibility
However it may roll, give it a spin
See if you can somehow factor in
You know there's always more than one way
to say exactly what you mean to say

Was I out of my head or was I out of my mind?
How could I have ever been so blind?
I was waiting for an indication, it was hard to find
Don't matter what I say, only what I do
I never mean to do bad things to you
So quiet but I finally woke up
If you're sad then it's time you spoke up too

Was I out of my head or was I out of my mind?
How could I have ever been so blind?
I was waiting for an indication, it was hard to find
Don't matter what I say, only what I do
I never mean to do bad things to you
So quiet but I finally woke up
If you're sad then it's time you spoke up too

Was I out of my head or was I out of my mind?
How could I have ever been so blind?
I was waiting for an indication, it was hard to find
Don't matter what I say, only what I do
I never mean to do bad things to you
So quiet but I finally wake up
If you're sad then it's time you spoke up too

STAY YOU - WOOD

I love the way you speak
And I love the way you swear
I love the way you walk around with your head held in the air
I love the way your words move
And I love the way you drive
I love the way you're scared of people scared to be alive

Stay...  stay you...  that's the toughest thing to do

I love the way you dress upon a Saturday night
I love the way you never speak until it feels just right
I love the way you're spending all your money on yourself
I love the way you answer the phone and pretend you're somebody else

Stay...  stay you...  that's the toughest thing to do

And now I don't want to talk about the things you overcame
By dragging up the past I'll put you through it all again
I've got the greatest admiration for the way that you got through it
Couldn't ask nobody else to do it better than you do it

PLEASE DON'T ASK - POPSICLE

Some how I thought I'd be that strong
Finally accepting that you're really gone
Thought we could spend some time together
That things were getting better now

Let me tell you honey I was wrong
Now I'm so empty and the days so long
Though I'm trying not to show it
There's no way don't know it bye now

So please don't ask any questions
Just let it be
Cause I've told you what I mean
And please don't leave any message
Just say goodbye
I will try to hide
The way I feel this time

As if it wasn't enough with the streets we shared
Now even the weather seems to take me there
I hear you giggling with the raindropps
Humming with with the treetops sighing

So excuse me while I sing this song
But I'm so empty and the days so long
Will I never stop complaining
Find myself again and
Step out on the other side

I look into the mirror
See an empty space that used to be your face
I know it's trivial
So why do I keep dwelling on it

LOST IN YOU - ASH

Lying wide awake under strange skies
Wanting to call you but it is late at night
And you're far away
But you are always on my mind

I feel like I'm on fire, nothing I can do
I'm troubled with doubt
Though I know it is not true
And it's times like these

When I am dying to speak to you
I'm dying to get through
I'm dying to speak to you
Dying to get through

I'm dying to speak to you
Staring at the wall I sink inside
I think about it all I get caught up in my life
I can't think straight

Because it's tearing up my mind
I feel like I'm on fire, nothing I can do
I'm troubled with doubt
Though I know it is not true

And it's times like these
When I'm dying to speak to you
Dying to get through
Dying to get through

The more that I think, how I need you
The more that I think, the more it seems true
And now it means more
Than I ever meant it to

Ever meant it to
Lying wide awake under strange skies
Wanting to call you but it is late at night
And you're far away

But you are always on my mind
You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind

You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind

Daggers!

Never speak anything you are not sure of. Never say promise nor pledge anything uncertain. Choose your words. Words are sometimes like daggers. They kill!

Stay Close Don't Go (by Secondhand Serenade)

I'm staring at the glass in front of me,
Is it half empty?
Have I ruined all you've given me?
I know I've been selfish,
I know I've been foolish,
But look through that and you will see,
That I'll do better.
I know, baby I can do better.

[Chorus]
If you leave me tonight,
I'll wake up alone,
Don't tell me I will make it on my own.
Don't leave me tonight,
This heart of stone will sink 'til it dies,
If you leave me tonight.

Sometimes I stare at you while you are sleeping,
I listen to your breathing,
Amazed how I somehow managed to,
Sweep you off of your feet girl,
Your perfect little feet girl,
I took for granted what you do,
But I'll do better.
I know, baby I can do better.

[Chorus]
If you leave me tonight,
I'll wake up alone,
Don't tell me I will make it on my own.
Don't leave me tonight,
This heart of stone will sink 'til it dies,
If you leave me tonight.

And don't you know,
My heart is pumping,
Oh, it's putting up the fight.
And I've got this feeling,
That everything's alright.
Don't you see?
I'm not the only one for you,
But you're the only one for me.

If you leave me tonight,
I'll wake up alone.

[Chorus]
If you leave me tonight,
I'll wake up alone,
Don't tell me I will make it on my own.
Don't leave me tonight,
This heart of stone will sink 'til it dies,
If you leave me tonight.
Don't leave me tonight.

PROVINCE OF A CONSCIOUS MIND

FOCUS ON OPPORTUNITIES

ALONE AND HAPPY

I WON'T GIVE UP

A FRIEND INDEED

There's one thing you should always remind yourself. "May napatunayan ka na. Di mo na kailangang patunayan sarili mo sa iba. Alam ng lahat yan. At alam mo ang sarili mo. The good things that are yet to come for you are just consolations to what you've already acheived. Pag dumating mga yun, don't give them all of you. You're a good person. The only difference is sa lahat ng ginawa mo, natakpan lahat, hindi na nakita yung IKAW, dahil sa isang pagkakamali."
I thank that friend who texted awhile ago. Thank you so much! Thanks for being one of the bests that I have!

TROUBLED PEOPLE

There are people who will always be there for you any time and in any situation. Also, there are people who will ignore, and, worst of all, deny you in times of troubles! What a shame! Haha

ILLUMINATE THE WORLD TODAY

PEOPLE ARE PEOPLE

Motivation on Fire!

What Motivates You?

Focus on what motivates you. If anger does, well, keep it flaming!

Learn From People

Trust

Not A Failure

I don't consider mistakes as failures. They just show how you tried your best. From those mistakes comes life lessons. Some people just don't have the guts to try anything. And are only good with dissing and aggravating...

Mistakes & Courage

MATUTO KA!

Sa buhay, kailangan mong matuto. Pero bago ka matuto, di mo maiiwasang madungisan at masugatan. Sa pagdaan ng panahon maghihilom din ang mga sugat at dungis ay malilinisan. Matuto ka para di na ulit masugatan at pagkatao'y madungisan...

A Home In My Heart

I don't know what tomorrow will bring me. I have nowhere to go. What I know is I'm still on this road but not sure where it will lead me. But I'll walk on because I know I will never be alone. I trust in You. Just please give me the courage to carry on. I don't know if I'd be back. But I'm sure I will always have A Home. In my Heart. Salamat po sa lahat! God bless me...

MORALE AND DELICADEZA

I wonder why there are people who are only good at criticizing. They talk about how some people earn for living. They talk about professions and what they do to survive. Don't they have the decency and respect? There's nothing wrong with how people earn. There's just something wrong with how people think. It's not the lack of education, it's just but MORALE and DELICADEZA.
