Epitome of Perfidy and Deception

whatever

This is to you and you know who you are..

Don't be too quick to judge, for i see traces of her in you..

In all honesty, u didn't have to TRY HARD to be there if u didn't want to in the first place, cos really, there wasn't much of a difference, Really. Why put yourself through the trouble, or in this instance, torture?

Gee I wonder what you ppl learn in churches today or whatever groups you hang out in. Perhaps the words "forgive" and "give ppl a chance" just flew out of the window over time.
Well don't worry, give us some time, and we'd be out of this place and perhaps out of your life as you hoped / wished for.

And guess what, I give up. Why should I encourage an outsider to try so hard to please / appeal to someone who won't even give her a chance to? Face it, you totally shut her out of the door from day one. And no, I don't need your approval on who I date.

Maybe you do think that the world revolves around you, maybe you think you've done / achieved so much more. Good for you. Congratulations! Hopefully you know how to stand up once you fall. Please stop thinking you're all so perfect, cos you're far from in. At least I know, if I fall, I can stand up again. Can you?

True some decisions may have caused some disappointment to whoever. But who's to judge? I didn't put those expectations up. You / they did. I don't have to live my life pleasing you / living up to whosever expectations now do I?

For all who were to some extent, let down for whatever expectations u set for me, I'm sorry. Truthfully I am. And I also don't give a hoot about it. Cos I don't see why I have to live up to any of your expectations.

I've tried, not that I don't want to, but I've given up. Really, I have. And yes I may have lost whatever high place that you put me in. It's ok... cos i know, that im facing my mistakes and not running away from it. If that is the wrong thing to do, you should have a change in religion and career.

destroyed..

2008-09-07T15:08:00.002+08:00

destroyed...

completely..

hurt, how does it feel?
it's like shouting without words..

the heart tore into pieces by you..
but still it wouldn't rupture..

Who's the one who made you change?
you don't recall my careness anymore..

You have forsaken, leaving the past..
I only thought it's better not to blame you..

I thought love is the pity of suffering..
enduring the tiredness of generiosity..

Happiness can give me comfort
the tears of your heartache

Forgiving yours is not right either
i only hope to open you heart..

Not overdemanding a perfect one
I thought love is a pity of suffering

You can make me not regret
treating you like this as my dear

but when you have taught me how to love you..
too bad.. love is not there anymore...

whatever you do..
will be a waste...

Look me in the eyes

2008-03-03T17:47:00.002+08:00

I never should of waited so long to say
What I've always known since the very first day..

Dreams can't take the place of loving you...

How long will I be waiting,
To be with you again?
Gonna tell you that I love you,
In the best way that I can.
I can't take a day without you here,
You're the light that makes my darkness disappear.

你已經遠遠離開
我會學著放棄你
是因為我太愛你....

but i can't...

walk away...

Spend My Life with You

2008-02-06T10:53:00.000+08:00

I never knew such a day could come
And I never knew such a love
Could be inside of one
And I never knew what my life was for
But now that you're here I know for sure
I never knew till I looked in your eyes
I was incomplete till the day you walked into my life
And I never knew that my heart could feel
So precious and pure
One love so real

Can I just see you every morning when
I open my eyes
Can I just feel your heart beating beside me
Every night
Can we just feel this way together
Till the end of all time
Can I just spend my life with you

Now baby the days and the weeks
And the years will roll by
But nothing will change the love inside
Of you and I
And baby I'll never find any words
That could explain
Just how much my heart my life
My soul you've changed
Can you run to these open arms
When no one else understands
Can we tell God and the whole world
I'm your woman, and you're my man
Can't you just feel how much I love you
With one touch of my hand
Can I just spend my life with you
No touch has ever felt so wonderful(You are incredible)
And a deeper love I've never known(I'll never let you go)
I swear this love is true(Now and forever to you)(only for you)
To you

Can I just see you every morning when
I open my eyes
Can I just feel your heart beating beside me
Every night
Can we just feel this way together
Till the end of all time
Can I just spend my life with you
Can you run to these open arms
When no one else understands
Can we tell God and the whole world
You're my woman, and you're my man
Can't you just feel how much I love you
With one touch of my hand
Can I just spend my life with you
Can I just spend my life with you
Can I just spend my life with you(Forever here with you)
Can I just spend my life with you
Can I just see you every morning when I
Open my eyes

There's No Easy Way To Break Somebody's Heart

2007-10-30T11:32:00.000+08:00

I held her close to me
Coz I know she breaks so easily
And then I told her
Though I knew no matter how I tried to console her
Then she'd do the best she could
But there are times the best is no damn good
And no matter how you try to be kind
There's always still a part of you you'll leave behind
When they fall apart
There's no easy way to break somebody's heart.

I lied and told her she'll be fine
Though we both knew it was just a lie
I had to do it Coz I had said anything to help me get through it.
And she reached out for my hand
And her simple touch was more than I could stand
And I had to turn away coz I knew
All the hurt that she was feeling,
I was feeling too
When they fall apart
There's no easy way to break somebody's heart.

She could've gotten angry
And made me feel like a guilty child
But I realized that never was her style
I wanted her to hurt me
And not treat me like a friend
I wanted her to say "there'd be someday I'd come crawling on my knees to ask her back again"
But she acted like a lady till the end
Oh, what a lady!
I thought that she'd bring down
But she smiled at me and never made a sound
And I guess she understood in her way
Coz her silence told me everything she could not say
When they fall apart
There's easy way to break
There's just no easy way
There's no easy way to break somebody's heart...

I Don't Have The Heart

2007-10-30T11:29:00.000+08:00

Your face is beaming
You say is ‘cause you’re dreaming
Of how good it’s going to be
You say you’ve been around
And now you’ve finally found
Everything you wanted and need in me

I don’t have the heart to hurt you
It’s the last I want to do
But I don’t have the heart to love you
Not the way you want me to

Inside I’m dying
To see you crying
How can I make you understand
I care about you
So much about you, baby
I’m trying to say this as gently as I can

‘Cause I don’t have the heart to hurt you
It’s the last I want to do
But I don’t have the heart to love you
Not the way you want me to

You’re so trusting and open
Hoping that love will start
But I don’t have the heart, oh, no
I don’t have the heart

I don’t have the heart to hurt you
It’s the last I want to do
But I don’t have the heart to love you
Not the way you want me to
I don’t have the heart (Ooh...)
(Baby, I don’t have the heart, I don’t have the heart)
I don’t have the heart (Ooh...)
(Baby, I don’t have)I don’t have the heart
I don’t have the heart
I don’t have the heart
I don’t have the heart
I don’t have the heart

Happy Birthday...

2007-10-29T12:27:00.000+08:00

Back when I was a child
Before life removed all the innocence
My grandma would lift me high
And walked with my mother and me
and then Spin me around till I fell asleep
Then up the stairs she would carry me
And I knew for sure I was loved

If I could get another chance
Another walk, another walk with her
I’d play a song that would never, ever end
How I’d love, love, love to walk with my grandma again
When I and my mother would disagree
To get my way I would run from her to gramps
She’d make me laugh just to comfort me, yeah, yeah
Then finally make me do just what my mama said
Later that night when I was asleep
She left a dollar under my sheet
Never dreamed that she
Would be gone from me

If I could steal one final glance
One final step, one final walk with her
I’d play a song that would never, ever end
‘Cause I’d love, love, love to walk with my grandma again

Sometimes I’d listen outside her door
And I’d hear her,
mama cryin’ for her
I pray for her even more than me
I pray for her even more than me

I know I’m prayin’ for much too much
But could You send back the only lady i truely loved
I know You don’t do it usually
But Lord, i'm dyin’ to walk with my grandma again

Every night I fall asleep And this is all I ever dream

Happy Birthday! U've been sorely missed...

Halo

2007-09-14T11:42:00.000+08:00

I never promised you a ray of light,
I never promised there'd be sunshine everyday,
I give you everything I have, the good, the bad.
Why do you put me on a pedestal,
I'm so up high that I can't see the ground below,
So help me down you've got it wrong,
I don't belong there.

One thing is clear,
I wear a halo,
I wear a halo when you look at me,
But standing from here,
you wouldn't say so you wouldn't say so,
if you were me
And I,
I just wanna love you,
Oh oh I,
I just wanna love you

I always said that I would make mistakes,
I'm only human, and that’s my saving grace,
I fall as hard as I try
So don't be blinded
See me as I really am,
I have flaws and sometimes I even sin,
so pull me from that pedestal,
I don't belong there.

One thing is clear,
I wear a halo,
I wear a halo when you look at me,
But standing from here,
you wouldn't say so you wouldn't say so,
if you were me
And I,
I just wanna love you,
Oh oh I,
I just wanna love you
Why you think that you know me
But In your eyes
I am something above you
It’s only in your mind
Only in your mind
I wear a I wear a I wear a Halo
One thing is clear,
I wear a halo,
I wear a halo when you look at me,
But standing from here,
you wouldn't say so you wouldn't say so,
if you were me
And I,
I just wanna love you,
Oh oh I,
I just wanna love you

Hallelujah...

2007-06-17T03:41:00.000+08:00

i heard there was a secret chord
that david played and it pleased the lord
but you don't really care for music,
do you well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth
the minor fall and the major lift
the baffled king composing hallelujah
hallelujah...

well your faith was strong
but you needed proof
you saw her bathing on the roof
her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
she tied you to her kitchen chair
she broke your throne and she cut your hair
and from your lips she drew the hallelujah
hallelujah...

baby i've been here before
i've seen this room and i've walked this floor
i used to live alone before i knew you
i've seen your flag on the marble arch
but love is not a victory march
it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
hallelujah...

well there was a time when you let me know
what's really going on below
but now you never show that to me do you
but remember when i moved in you
and the holy dove was moving too
and every breath we drew was hallelujah

well, maybe there's a god above
but all i've ever learned from love
was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
it's not a cry that you hear at night
it's not somebody who's seen the light
it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
hallelujah...

Put your game face on because it is time, to play

2007-03-02T11:26:00.000+08:00

How do you sleep
when you live with your lies
out of your mouth
up from your mind
that kind of thinking
starts a chain reaction
you are a timebome ticking away
you need to release
what you're feeling inside
let out the beast
that you're trying to hide
step right up and be a part of the action
get your game face on
because its time to play

how do you live without playing the game
sit on the side and expect to keep sane
take a look around,
you cant deny what you see
we're living in a violent society

so tell me what am i supposed to be
another goddamn drone?
should i leave it on the inside,
should i get ready to play?

reject
are you no one?
feel you nothing?
you know i'll bet you think
you have a good reason to be living
in the limelight of the fortunate ones
You're too weakened by the poison
that they feed you in the living lie
they don't believe you
call to no one
trust in nothing
little impotent one

punk ass, are u listening
can you hear me or are you deaf and dumb to my language
do the real words seem to hurt you?
well put em up
you'll feel it
when i stamp it on your forehead
so you will never forget
that you're a reject
and you're no one
and you're nothing
little impotent one

fear awaken
go with it now
and let it overcome you
fear awaken
your mind is racing

I dont understand why you don't like me
Why dont you like me?
am i so different from you?
Now does it scare you that i'm able to discern
what to love and what to burn?
I'll add your fuel to the fire now
stand back, brother take your hand back
leave it and i might crack
More than a smile or two you see

dont judge what you dont understand
you cant deny what has been given to me...

get your game face on..
because, it is time
to play

Somebody

2007-01-16T20:38:00.000+08:00

I want somebody to share
Share the rest of my life
Share my innermost thoughts
Know my intimate details
Someone wholl stand by my side
And give me support
And in return
Shell get my support
She will listen to me
When I want to speak
About the world we live in
And life in general
Though my views may be wrong
They may even be perverted
Shell hear me out
And wont easily be converted
To my way of thinking
In fact shell often disagree
But at the end of it all
She will understand me
Aaaahhhhh....

I want somebody who cares
For me passionately
With every thought and
With every breath
Someone wholl help me see things
In a different light
All the things I detestI will almost like
I dont want to be tied
To anyones strings
Im carefully trying to steer clear of
Those things
But when Im asleep
I want somebody
Who will put their arms around me
And kiss me tenderly
Though things like this
Make me sick
In a case like this
Ill get away with it
Aaaahhhhh....

Hate me so u'll know what's good for you

2006-10-13T13:40:00.000+08:00

I'm still chasin the same dreams I've had
that build up all this hope
but then eventually crashed
and the drama doesn't pass,
headaches are bound to last.

when you've tolerated enough, you just get so fed up
my faith got really shallow
my doubts got really deep
i got my heart and my dreams
and i threw it all down a wishing well

you gotta feel the beat in my heart
to understand all the love i still got from the start
to understand all the love that's taking me far...

Hate me today
hate me tomorrow
hate me so you'll know what's good for you..

Someday I will understand
In God's whole plan
and what he's done to me..

always dreaming of hope for a better future to live
it helps to open up our eyes
to stop acting like kids
and grow into an adult that has the right to speak out
and be matured enough to handle all the pitiful doubts
and in my point of view, i just can't let go of this bond.

i'm gonna know this in time
and when i think its alright
my heart will make it a blur
i gotta know if i'm sure
to hold on something that's real
it's more than just how i feel
i'll know for sure when its gone
if i regret it
then it was wrong...

Memories

2006-09-13T21:55:00.000+08:00

When you try your best but you don't succeed, when you get what you want but not what you need, when you feel so tired but you can't sleep, its like being stuck in reverse. And the tears come streaming down your face, when you lose something you can't replace, when you love someone but it goes to waste, could it be worse? Tears stream down on your face, I promise you, I will learn from my mistakes. Tears stream down on your face. And I...

I miss the times we shared,
the times we walked home from marina, stopping for prata on our way home...
I miss the times we talked,
when we talked about anything and everything that didn't make sense to anyone, not that we cared.
I miss the times on the rooftop,
rooftop times were sacred. Who knew a simple roof had so much memories.
The times we smoked, dangling ourselves 5 floors above ground level.
The times we went out and did nothing, but went home feeling its the best outing ever.
The drowning of bottles after bottles in complementary hotel rooms..
The trashing of those complementary rooms..
The times at the sucky lil prata shop we call our own.
The times we talk about buyin a whole estate and living our life to the fullest.
The endless heartfelt conversations over bottles, or jugs.
The laughter,
The tears,
The anger,
The disappointments,
The accomplishments,
The times when we were younger.
When we didnt have to work to pay the bills,
when we had fun,
and lived each day as our last.
It sucks growing older.
Skinned knees were easier to heal than broken hearts.
Time may past,
we may go our seperate ways,
but memories live on forever.
A toast to our memories,
May we relive them again one day.
Cheers Bros,
for all the shit,
and troubles that we've been through.
For watching over each others' backs over the years.
For being there.
Cos we all know that,

in the end,
it doesn't even matter =)

Cheers!

I dun wanna be anything other than me...

2006-08-08T13:04:00.000+08:00

i was confronted about an earlier post but I dun see what i did wrong at all, other than the fact that it may have been a tad bit vulgar, everything else was accurate. And yes, i feel no remorse whatsoever. maybe its the way i was brought up? to learn from mistakes and not to dwell on em.. i was never taught to like regret anything that i did in the past. learn from it, yes. but never to keep thinkin what if, if only, etc etc and make my life more miserable.

Just what's the deal about religion anyways? religion is like language or dress. We gravitate towards the practices with which we were raised. In the end though, we're all proclaiming the same thing. That life has meaning and that we are grateful for the power that created us.

Heaven's gates won't open up for me, With these broken wings I'm fallin', And all I see is you, These city walls ain't got no love for me, I'm on the ledge of the eighteenth story, And oh I scream for you, Come please I'm callin', And all I need from you, Hurry I'm fallin', Show me what it's like, To be the last one standing, And teach me wrong from right, And I'll show you what I can be, Say it for me, Say it to me, And I'll leave this life behind me, Say it if it's worth saving me..

Can I have everyone's attention please, if you're not like this and that, You're gonna have to leave. I came from the mountain, the crust of creation. My whole situation made from clay, dust, stone. And now I'm telling everybody, I don't want to be anything other than what I've been trying to be lately, All I have to do is think of me and have peace of mind, I'm tired of looking 'round rooms wondering what I gotta to do, Or who I'm supposed to be. I don't want to be anything other than me...

Paint the Silence

2006-07-06T14:06:00.000+08:00

How can you say your life is empty
So late in the day
Why would you stay another second
Now your sight got in the wayA combination
Of love and aggression
Another second lived

Don't paint the silence black now save me
Don't leave it a day
You got a right to stand or die so maybe
You take chances all the same
Pain comes in stages
If we dont make it
Nothing changes

Now the violence sleeps inside
Abandoned feeling for just a piece of mind
It's the reason why your teething side frustrates me

Now the violence sleeps inside
Abandoned feeling for just a piece of mind
It's the reason why your teething side irates me

Dont leave me to pick up on your questions
Not even a day
It's alright to finish up your sentence
You talk all the same
Pain comes in stages if we don't make it
Nothing changes

Now the violence sleeps inside
Abandoned feeling for just a piece of mind
It's the reason why your teething side frustrates me

Now the violence sleeps inside
Abandoned feeling for just a piece of mind
It's the reason why your teething side irates me

Close your eyes

2006-06-29T15:08:00.000+08:00

If you wanna know...

Tomorrow morning I have to leave
But wherever I may be
Best believe I'm thinking of you
I can't believe how much I love

All we have is here tonight
We don't want to waste this time
Give me something to remember
Baby put your lips on mine

And I'll love you forever
Anytime that we find ourselves apart

Just close your eyes
And you'll be here with me
Just look to your heart
And that's where I'll be
If you just close your eyes
Till your drifting away
You'll never be too far from me
If you close your eyes

I know I'm gonna see you again
But promise me that you won't forget
Cause as long as you remember
A part of us will be together
So even when you're fast asleep
Look for me inside your dreams
Keep believing in what we're sharing
And even when I'm not there to tell you

I'll, I'll love, Love you forever
Anytime that I can't be where you are

Just close your eyes
And you'll be here with me
Just look to your heart
And that's where I'll be
If you just close your eyes
Till your drifting away
You'll never be too far from me
If you close your eyes

Is there anywhere that far?
Anytime you're feeling low
Is there anywhere that love cannot reach?

It could be anywhere on earth
It could be anywhere I'll be
Oh baby if you want to see
Just close your eyes
And you'll be here with me
Look to your heart
That's where I'll be

Just close your eyes
Till your drifting away
You'll never be too far from me...

Farewell my beloved grandmother...

2006-06-14T14:13:00.000+08:00

Love never dies a natural death.
It dies because we don't know how to replenish its source.
It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals.
It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of withering, of tarnishing...

I can't even find the words to say
I can't find a way to make it right.
And we both know that the story's ended
We play the part but we're just pretending
And I can't hide the tears cause I can't accept the feeling
Of you being a million miles away.

So my grandma has left us... It's still very much of a shock to me.. it just seems so unreal.. the other day I went up to the house during the wake.. it felt so damn weird.. Never in my life have i ever go to my grandma's house without her inside.. I walked into her room and was filled with so much emotions.. how she used to bring me out when i was younger, let me go for kiddie rides, not once, but on every machine that was there.. how her melodic "justin yeo" sounded.. how she took care of me.. how her cooking tasted..how she smiled, how she laughed.. there's a void in my life that will never be replaced...

hers is a story of love.. for 10yrs, 10 freaking long years she cared for my bedridden grandfather..there was nothing wrong with her other than aches.. then my grandfather passed away...she didnt cry, not a tear.. she was calm and composed.. 1 week later, I met her, "how're you" i asked.. "ai se buay se" came the reply..in english.. "wanna die cannot die.." it hurt me to hear that.. "come stay with us, make ur passport, we'd bring u for a short holiday" i invited... "dun want, i dun wanna spend 1 week at ur hse, next week at another and so on..i've got my own hse"..

So this is my conclusion, my grandma cared for my granddad for 10yrs with no illness, Granddad passes away, Grandma stays on, worried for her younger daughter as she always is... 2 weeks on, daughter still cant communicate with her, trying to get her out of the house.. grandma says wat the hell, since im not wanted, i might as well go.. and a month and a day after my granddad's departure, my beloved grandma joins him... love story? indeed.. love, hurt, betrayal all in one...

so u ppl claim being a catholic is wrong, christian is right, well if this is what christianity teaches u, i'd rather stay wrong....fuck you. catholic and christian different God ah? dun be fucking stupid can? freaking HUMANS wrote the bible.. it didnt just pop out of the earth or drop from heaven you know.. why are ppl so blinded by faith? i honestly personally feel that christians are the most fucked up ppl around, christians, who think that their God is different from the one that the catholics or anglicans or methodists pray to.. another example of stupidity.. u know at funerals they have the red string thingy they serve with the peanuts? ure supposed to like take it with u and throw it away on ur way out or something like that rite? oh no christians dont do that.. fuck la..throwing away that red string isnt a fucking religion right? its just a custom.. here's another.. there's this belief that on the 7th day, the spirit of the departed would return to the house.. wanted to clean up my grandma's room, put on fresh sheets and all for my grandma...but christians dun believe in this.. here we go again.. this is a fucking CUSTOM nothing to do with RELIGION.. why are christians soooo blinded?? fuck.. for ur info, my CATHOLIC grandma returned to her room on the 7th day...oh.. den again, catholics are wrong rite? fuck off...

during the funeral mass at the colobarium, the pastor dude was giving a sermon, he pissed me off so bad i wanted to tell him off..he was going on and on about how we should not grieve but be happy cos my grandma accepted christ(in other words, became a christian) and that she will go to heaven cos all those who accept christ (be a CHRISTIAN) would go to heaven.. fuck so muslims, buddhists, toaists, catholics etc all go to hell la?! fucking irritating la.. then he said something bout my grandma, being at a train station, going off, not coming back, dude! we're not freaking 5yr olds who dunno wat death means la... i just cant stand it la.. cant fucking stand the way they imply that oh if u dun accept christ in ur life ure heading to hell.. so if i lead a righteous life but am a free thinker den im gonna go to hell? fuck, i might as well enjoy life, fuck it up, accept christ on my death bed, and go to heaven? go figure... as i've said before.. if u claim God loves u unconditionally, den why is it u hafta accept christ in order to go to heaven...if that isnt a condition, what is?

You are gone and every time I think about it
It tears me up inside.
Like the rivers of emotion but I got no more tears to cry

Goodbye my grandma...

2006-06-03T10:41:00.000+08:00

Doc wanna see the whole family in 2hrs...
doesnt seem good at all..
and she was supposed to be better..
but yet she collapsed again..
15min without oxygen to her brain..
this is just too soon...

I never should of waited so long to say
What I've always known since the very first day
Thought that you would stay forever with me
But the time has come for you to leave

Before we turn out the lights and close our eyes
I'll tell you a secret I've held all my life
It's you that I live for, and for you I die
So I'll lay here with you till the final goodbye

Did I disappoint you or let you down?
Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?

It may be over but it won't stop there,
I am here for you if you'd only hang in there.

You touched my heart you touched my soul.
You changed my life and all my goals.

I've kissed your cheeks and held your head.
Shared your dreams and shared your bed.

I know you well, I know your smell.
I've been addicted to you.

Goodbye my grandma.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

I am a dreamer but when I wake,
You can't break my spirit - it's my dreams you take.

And as you move on, remember me,
Remember us and all we used to be

I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile.
I've watched you sleeping for a while.

you'd be the great grandmother of my child.
I'd spend your lifetime with you.

I know your fears and you know mine.
We've had our doubts but now we're fine,

And I love you, I swear that's true.
I cannot live without you.

Still a little bit of your song in my ear
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 so it is
The shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her sky

And so it is
Just like you said it should be
We'll both forget the breeze
Most of the time
And so it is
The colder water
The blower's daughter
The pupil in denial

Stones taught me to flyLove,
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 just don't know

Did I say that I want to
Leave it all behind?

I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind off of you

Too fast, too soon, too unfair..

2006-05-30T18:25:00.000+08:00

all the people in this world that believe in u,
u give em fake hope to hold on i think u already know
but u continue to show nothing but the silence
they say u love us then why am i seeing this violence?
they said we have to help ourselves before god can help our soul
den dat means dat we alone in dis world dat we control
not u, u never had us, u never did
so all the things that i was taught wen i was young were bullshit...

uve taken my grandpa less than a mth ago, and now u're hitting on my grandma?!
i'd never forgive u if u take her now,
she's got so much more to live for..
she hasnt enjoyed her later years yet..
wat does one do to deserve a slow painful death?
whatever happened to dying in ur sleep?
isnt that the way to go..
so the many that are heading to be by ur side,
why do they have to suffer to get there?
prove their faith for u in their darkess hours?
why do ppl of much faith keep saying that the departed is where God is?
and that he/she's in a much better place?
come on,
have u been there and back?
how'd the hell u know?
is that supposed to comfort someone?
i dun think so..
a death is a death, there is no "he's gone to a better place"
how much better can the incinerator be?
or 6th feet under ground for that matter?
i really wonder what we see in our final seconds as we breathe our last breath..
our loved ones? happier moments in life? a new beginning? a better place?
well.. i'd find out when its time.
till den,
pls dun let her suffer,
its so fucking unfair for her..
she's been suffering for the past 10yrs..
e least u could do, with all the power that u have,
is to let her go in peace, if she must go..
even so,
many hearts will weep..

hang in there ah ma..
prayers will be answered..

Unfaithful

2006-05-18T12:00:00.000+08:00

Rhianna - Unfaithful

Story of my life
Searching for the right
But it keeps avoiding me
Sorrow in my soul
cause it seems that wrong
really loves my company

She's more than a girl
and this is more than love
the reason that the sky is blue
the clouds are rolling in
because I'm gone again
and to her I just can't be true

and I know that she knows I'm unfaithful
and it kills her inside
to know that I am happy with some other girl
I can see her dying
I don't wanna do this anymore
I don't wanna be the reason why
Everytime I walk out the door
I see her die a little more inside
I don't wanna hurt her anymore
I don't wanna take away her life
I don't wanna be... a murderer

I feel it in the air
as I'm doing my hair
preparing for another day
A kiss up on my cheek
she's here reluctantly
as if I'm gonna be out late
I say I won't be long
Just hanging with the guys
A lie I didn't have to tell
Because we both know
where I'm about to go
and we know it very well

cause I know that she knows I'm unfaithful
and it kills her inside
to know that I am happy with some other girl
I can see her dying

I don't wanna do this anymore
I don't wanna be the reason why
Everytime I walk out the door
I see her die a little more inside
I don't wanna hurt her anymore
I don't wanna take away her life
I don't wanna be... a murderer

our love
Her trust
I might as well take a gun and put it to her head
Get it over with
I don't wanna do this Anymore (anymore)
I don't wanna do this anymore
I don't wanna be the reason why
Everytime I walk out the door
I see her die a little more inside
I don't wanna hurt her anymore
I don't wanna take away her life
I don't wanna be... a murderer (a murderer)

No no no no
Yeah yeah yeah

What's Forever For

2006-05-05T12:32:00.000+08:00

Come with me
Let me walk u through the world that I currently stay in,
You can take a look around and tell me if I'm mistaken
You can even talk to everybody that I live with
Maybe you could tell me why everybody's so distant
Is it me or maybe, when I look around daily
I don't even know the people I can put my trust in lately
People that I used to hang with now their actin' to different
I'm still the same person why doesn't anybody listen
Can somebody please just explain to me
What happened to the way that we always said we'd be
Right now I dunno why I push through the pain that I got through
And I'm losing hope..

Sometimes you'll find a place that might just remind you of home
But if it doesn't feel like home
You can do what I do
Just pretend you don't feel so alone

I keep puffin 'til my lips turn white
And my chest gets tight
But who the fuck really cares
when you're So far left behind that even death looks right
All I can do is hope for the best and pray
That it gets a little better than yesterday

Can't even think what happened, feeling so confused

You're no longer who u used to be
I wonder what brought about this change in you
U used to be the best,
put all our worries to rest.
I thank you for giving us the freedom to experience life,
for if u never let go of the bicycle,
I'd never have learnt how to cycle.
If u didnt throw me into the pool,
I wouldnt have learnt how to swim.
When u left me on the top of the stairs, and asked me to jump into ur arms,
I did, cos i trusted that u would catch me and not let me fall.
U've never failed to pick me up everytime i fell.
But it all seems different now,
now, u seem so.... distant..
its like i dun even know u anymore..
it hurts, its tearing me apart, its tearing us apart.

the other day when i brought up an issue,
u said u were not upset?
who were u tryin to kid?
u were dead unhappy.
not with me, but with her.
WHY?!
she may be naggy and ridiculous at times, but havent u always said that we should do our part to help her?
or do those words dun mean anything now?
so u know how hard i fought to hold back the tears at the dinner table?!
dun u even feel anything wrong with the way u treat her sometimes?!
i feel so so bad for her u know? i bet u'd never know..
in fact, i feel like shit, lousy and heartbroken.
she feels the exact same way.
is it so hard to visit a dying man?
IS IT?!?!
cant u be her pillar of strength as u once were?!
do u know how badly she needs u..
when she wants to bring u to see the old man, never know when it might be the last time u see him,
she actually has plea that u do not show ur anger or raise ur voice at her when u pick her up?!?!
what has become of the both of u..
its not fair reallie, not fair for her at all..
she deserves so much better...
and the worst part of it all?
she doesnt tell u..she just swallows it and keep it inside

when asked for ur help to teach him
all u did was shout at him
we're not ur office workers,
we're a family..
YOUR family..

I've been looking at people And how they change with the times
And lately all I've been seeing are people Throwing love away and losing their minds
Or maybe it's me that's gone crazy
'Cause I can't understand why
All these people keep hurting each other
When good love is so hard to come by
So what's the glory in living
Doesn't anybody ever stay together anymore
And if love never lasts forever
Tell me what's forever for

Pls dun tear this apart.
If u do, I'm gonna find it really hard to forgive u..
so hard that i may end up hating u..
but i dun want to hate u..
please dun make me do..
i beg of u...Dad...

And my grandfather's face is stuck in my mind and how Seeing him tonight may be the last time

Soon I'll be gone, I don't know when I'll be back
But in this world everything can change
just like that,
Like that...

Honey and Moon

2006-04-21T15:53:00.000+08:00

Don't know why I'm still afraid
If you weren't real I would make you up
nowI wish that I could follow through
I know that your love is true
And deep
As the sea
But right now
Everything you want is wrong,
And right now
All your dreams are waking up,
And right now
I wish I could follow you
To the shores
Of freedom,
Where no one lives.

Remember when we first met
And everything was still a bet
In love's game
You would call; I'd call you back
And then I'd leave
A message
On your answering machine
But right now
Everything is turning blue,
And right now
The sun is trying to kill the moon,
And right nowI wish I could follow you
To the shores
Of freedom,
Where no one lives
FreedomRun away tonight
Freedom, freedom
Run away
Run away tonight

We're made out of blood and rust
Looking for someone to trust
Without A fight
I think that you came too soon
You're the honey and the moon
That lights
Up my night
But right now
Everything you want is wrong,
And right now
All your dreams are waking up,
And right now
I wish that I could follow you
To the shores
Of freedom
Where no one lives
Freedom
Run away tonight
Freedom freedom
Run away
Run away tonight

We got too much time to kill
Like pigeons on my windowsill
We hang around
Ever since I've been with you
You hold me up
All the time I've falling down
But right now
Everything is turning blue,
And right now
The sun is trying to kill the moon,
And right nowI wish I could follow you
To the shores
Of freedom
Where no one lives

Where'd you go

2006-04-13T12:47:00.000+08:00

a reallie nice song, i guess it time to come i'd prob get this dedicated to me from di...

Where'd you go?
I miss you so
Seems like its been forever that you've been gone

She said somedays I feel like shit
Somedays I wanna quit and just be normal for a bit
I don't understand why you have to always be gone
I get along but your trips always feel so long
And I find myself trying to stay by the phone
'Cause your voice always helps me to not feel so alone
But I feel like an idiot, working my day around a call
And when I pick up I don't have much to say,

so I want you to know its a little fucked up that
I'm stuck here waiting,
at times debatin
Telling you that I've had it with you and your career
Me and the rest of the family here singing

Where'd you go?
I miss you so
Seems like its been forever that you've been gone
Where'd you go?
I miss you so
Seems like its been forever that you've been gone
Please Come back home

You know, the place you used to live
Used to barbeque with burgers and ribs
Used to have a little party every halloween with candy by the pile
but now you only stop by every once in a while
Shit I find myself just filling my time
With anything to keep the thought of you from my mind
I'm doing fine and I'm plannin' to keep it that way
You can call me if you find that you have something to say
And I'll tell you I want you to know its a little fucked up that I'm stuck here waiting,
at times debating
Telling you that I've had it with you and your career
Me and the rest of the family here singing

Where'd you go?
I miss you so
Seems like its been forever that you've been gone
Where'd you go?
I miss you so
Seems like its been forever that you've been gone
Please Come back home

I want you to know its a little fucked up
that I'm stuck here waiting,
no longer debatin'
Tired of sittin and hatin' and making these excuses
For why you're not around,
and feeling sorta useless
It seems that one thing has been true all along
You don't really know what you've got till its gone
I guess I've had it with you and your career
When you come back I won't be here
and you can sing it

Where'd you go?
I miss you so
Seems like its been forever that you've been gone
Where'd you go?
I miss you so
Seems like its been forever that you've been gone
Please Come back home

A Letter to God

2006-04-04T22:49:00.000+08:00

I'm one who strongly believes that if u gotta go, u gotta go. no matter how much precaution, how much care u take in ur life, when ur time is up, there's no stopping it.

All this talk about how if we love God unconditionally, we'd find ourselves in heaven etc, now isn't that itself, a condition already? If we accept God in our life, when our time is up, we'd bask in the eternal sunshines of heaven? I'm not blasphemous, I'm just questioning facts with facts.

I wonder, why do some ppl who marry in God's name, with God's blessing, in God's house, end up in extra marital affairs? divorce?

Why do ppl who supposedly live in his ways, preach his teachings, spend 1/2 their time in church, donate a sum of their income to church, yet, yet when it comes to their own parents, they shun responsibility? Did God not teach u to be filial? I can't stand how those ppl who're like so devoted, dedicated to the church, or the ppl of the church, that they'd rather help out at church den at home. Trust me, I dare say all this cos it comes with experience. I've got superholy peeps on both sides of the family. And yes, I resent the way they live their lives, its like they wanna book their place in heaven. Doesnt work that way I'm sure. Otherwise everyone should just accept God on their dying day and all sins are forgiven, heaven would be overcrowded.

Picture this, my grandad's been a stoke patient for the past 9yrs. Fuck, if its not his time yet, why can't he get well? why let him suffer. or others around him for that matter? after 9yrs, my aunt's had enough, and we finally send him to a home. Just when we thought that my grandma could start going out, playing mahjong, etc etc. Guess what? a recent checkup showed that only 20% of her kidneys are working. She may need dialysis, and where in the world are we gonna get the money? who's gonna bring her to the centre everyday or whenever? hell, a family living just a mere 3min walk away hardly even bother to drop by to help out around. Too busy with church is their excuse. Fuck, I'm sure the church freaking gave birth to u. They claimed that us being catholics are wrong, and them being whatever christians are right. Fuck u, its the same God for crying out loud. The bible was in HEBREW, then with different translators, came different versions, so who's right?

So really, if there is a God up there, pls answer the prayers that many've been praying every night, earnestly, praying for a way out, for solace, for inner peace.

leave u guys something to ponder about...

Dear god, hope you get the letter and...
I pray you can make it better down here
I don't mean a big reduction in the price of beer
But all the people that you made in your image
See them starving in the street'
Cause they don't get enough to eat from God
its tough believing in you

Dear god, sorry to disturb you but...
I feel that I should be heard loud and clear
We all need a big reduction in amount of tears
And all the people that you made in your image
See them fighting in the street'
Cause they can't make opinions meet about God
its tough believing in you

Did you make disease and the diamond blue?
Did you make mankind after we made you?
And the devil too!

Dear god don't know if you noticed but...
Your name is on a lot of quotes in this book
And us crazy humans wrote it, you should take a look

I won't believe in heaven or hell
No saints, no sinners, no devil as well
No pearly gates, no thorny crown
You're always letting us humans down
The wars you bring, the babes you drown
Those lost at sea and never found
And it's the same the whole world 'round
The hurt I see helps to compound

i'm sorry

I've got nothing against God, just the ppl who claim to be living in his way, yet they do so otherwise.

How To Deal

2006-04-04T22:32:00.000+08:00

sometimes a man has to choose
to do something he doesn't want to do
do I live my life with you as my wife?
or do I go on and pursue my lifetime dream
i gotta do this for me
cuz if I dont I'll probably regret it
but if I do I'll probably regret it

how do I cope (how do you cope)
when the one you love
is with somebody else and there's nothing you can do about it
how do you deal
with the fact that you had a chance
but you chose to turn away for your career
I gotta take it though its heartbreakin
its something that i had to do
but nobody said that it would hurt so bad
so how do I live
how do i deal without you?

it's killing me to know that your heart's with me
but your with him cuz I choose to be
in this industry money, shows,
those come along with luxuries and pain,
is all you see when you think about it
this is the life that i was given
so i have to live it to the fullest
how do i deal in the meantime without you?

how do you cope
when the one you love is with somebody else
and there's nothing you can do about it
how do you deal
with the fact that you had a chance but you chose to turn away for your career
i gotta take it though its heartbreakin
it's something that I had to do
but nobody said that it would hurt so bad
so how do I live
how do I deal without you?

how do you deal when you can't be with the one you love and the one that you love is with somebody else (i don't know, i don't know
and what do you do when you know she dont love him and she loves me but she just can't stand loving you far away
guess im gonna have to..you just deal with it (deal with it)
i dont wanna have to live with it...you just deal with it (deal with it)
oh no no, you just deal with it (deal with it)
i dont want nobody else lovin you...you just deal with it (deal with it)
i dont want nobody else lovin me

-------------

doesn't it jus suck when there comes a time when u hafta make a decisionlike this? either way you lose out something dear to you, either wayyou'll end up regretting...so then.. how would you deal with it?

Beat In My Heart

2006-04-04T22:23:00.000+08:00

ever had the feeling of wanting to be in two places at once? won't decision making just be so much easier then? you won't have to choose one over the other, no favouritism, no lack of importance, no worries.

7s tournament, inter-form, safsa, knights, le cordon bleu, friends, family, di. i want em all.. i reallie do.. thats why i need to be in 2 places at once.. if only...

i'm still chasin the same dreams i've had
that builded up all this hope but then eventully crashed
and the drama doesn't pass, headaches are bound to last
critics burn like a rash (too much, too fast)
i got the people showin love, and haters who got u stuck
when you've tolerated enough, you just get so fed up/
i decided to let it be, my passion can leave without me
my faith got really shallow, my doubts got really deep/
but when my parents let me down, my brother just aint around,
my people doin their thing, that's when i know i gotta sing/
one mic is all i need, one voice to show and tell,
i got my heart and my dreams and threw it all down a wishing well

you're gonna know this in time..
and when you think its all right..
your heart will make it a blur..
you gotta know if you're sure..
to hold on something that's real..
it's more than just how you feel..
you'll know for sure when its gone..
if you regret it then it was wrong..

(woah yea) you gotta feel, the beat in my heart
to understand all the love i still got from the start/
(it doesn't change)you gotta feel, the beat in my heart
to understand all the love i still got from the start/(it doesn't change)
you gotta feel, the beat in my heart..
to understand all the love that's taking me far..
you gotta feel, the beat in my heart..
to understand all the love that's taking me far, so far..

My Life

2006-04-04T21:54:00.000+08:00

My Life

these memories of mine
and the tears that i cry
when nobody is here
all the love disappears
destroy all my pride
thinking back on the night
when I wanted to die
cos I hated my life, my life

turn around and walk away
i need some personal space
to get my mind straight
i'm disappearing without a trace
my life is just a waste
of money and women
its like love
is just a waste of my tears and my feelings
nobody else is living my life except myself
i can choose to ignore the condition of my health
bad days become worst
its getting harder to really speak
explain whats on my mind
its everything all combined

damn it I ain't lying
dear God I feel like dying
why is it every night that my eyes continue crying
alone here in the dark
I'm writing these last words
my gift is not a blessing
my exception is a curse
thought it couldn't be worst
feeling how much it hurts
my pride is ready to burst
I'm putting myself first
tryna help someone else
before I can help myself
I wanna end the pain that's real
that's how I feel

these memories of mine
and the tears that i cry
when nobody is here
all the love disappears
destroy all my pride
thinking back on the night
when i wanted to die
cos i hated my life, my life

Take A Walk

2006-04-04T21:41:00.000+08:00

Take A Walk

sometimes i tryta picture, my dream becoming real
cuz im living in a world of bricks and cold steel
where a dream is all i have to hold and carry on
the mentality of being deprived for to long
i been having these doubts, these regrets, i cant shut out
am i chasing my dream? do i kno wat its about?
can it be touched? how much.. time i've given up
for nothing. still here nobody giving a fcuk
for what? ppl tell me "look at u, u made it far""u on tv, ppl kno u, ppl treat u like a star"
i put my heart into this shit, my heart bleeds with every word
yet sometimes, i feel blind, n dats hurting me worse
ive been blinded by a vision that im falling in the dark
reaching up to grab a hand but instead i grab my heart
n im pulling it out, so fierce i cant explain
in my dreams, i dream a dream thats causing me pain

i had a dream in my head that one day it would be different
if i kept my heart pure then one day id be forgiven
but life is hard hittin n i kno it to well
n the top is where im aiming cuz im livin through hell
n only some of u can tell, cuz i dont really talk to much
keep a smile on my face but inside ive had enough
to survive i play it tough, cuz nobody gave me a break
i been through so much drama how much more can i take?
and i never fuckin ran from any obstacle at hand
then why do i get punished i could never understand
i dream of one day that i can change another man
with my music, make a difference thats all in my plan
i talk the talk, walk the walk through my life in everyday
paid my dues, for my sins, in almost every fuckin way
but still its not enough, seems like it never is
n i guess, hope pushs me to constantly dig..

Love Hurts

2006-04-04T21:32:00.000+08:00

Love hurts

i like to dedicate this
to all my fellas
Fellas who ever been in a relationship,
and had their heart fuken torn out,
you know what i mean?
and i realise that, that alot of people suffer from heart breaks
so yeah,

From promises to lies, to every tear drop that we cry
the promises to care & understand each others lives
from struggles at its worst, we said the love would never change
then why do I feel lied to every time its saying
we said we had each other, unconditional love
if this is what love is, then I think I?ve had enough
the bullshit & the drama was nothing but wasted time
this thing that we call love is just illusions of the mind
all the smiles that we have is a story to be told
but nothing in the world can make up for all this bull
the problems that we faced there was something just reaching out
we shoulda took the hint that this shit wont be working out
I mean what have we been thinking, all those times we were together
did u really think that we would be in love forever
at this very age we shouldn?t be playing this game
now I understand that love is pain

love hurts so we all cry
tears droppin' from my eyes
the pain I cant explain
all I know is love is pain
Love hurts so we all cry
tears droppin' from my eyes
the pain I can?t explain
all I know is love
is pain

Through these past few days I've been reminiscing back
it's the first time I couldn't understand what we had
Was it love? Was it passion? Was it all a waste of time?
now its hate, now its pain, now its all this shit combined
I can't force myself to erase all our memories
but when I'm thinking back I always feel like u fooled me
nobody to blame but myself from being blinded
crying in my sleep hoping this hurting passes by
I've been told by my brothers how these girls are all the same
but you had me so convinced that my world suddenly changed
cause you always made me smile but a smile isn't forever
and I guess its unpredictable like change in the weather
I thought we'd work it out like those other times before
but the truth had to reveal, we cant live a lie no more
I'm still young and I'm still trying to stay true to my heart
my dreams have disappeared and now my life's scattered apart

love hurts so we all cry
tears droppin from my eyesthe pain I cant explain
all I know is love is pain
Love hurts so we all cry
tears droppin from my eyes
the pain I can't explain
all I know is love is pain

dedicating this song to anyone
whose gone through break-ups
Who felt the pain of losing someone you truly love,
and who lost hope and all thier dreams,
but remember, there is someone truly special,
waiting for you out there..

Sometimes even angels fall

2006-04-04T21:24:00.000+08:00

Sometimes Even Angels Fall

so many days i been living tryna make my momma proud
tryna represent my people show da world what im about
tryna bring my ppl out tryna find a way to smile
cuz my life was filled wit stress ever since i was a child
so i promised myself one day im standing tall
from the bottom to the top one day ill have it all
no more having to call my mom n tell her wats wrong
that im sittin in the bing n i aint coming home
no more time all alone just thinking how to survive
no more fights wit my own especially my own kind
sometimes i think dat we're blind, wen we're young we didnt care
wen we start to get older those the times that we scaredso now we bein prepared tryin hard to find a job
didnt kno we'd need skool so we dropped n just robbed
n now its to late u gotta work it even harder
da problems dat we had have just become larger

da pain is almost double, wen dey say u cant make it
to give it ur best but yet still dey wont take it
there were times wen i fell wen i tried to get up
wit nobody by my side to tell me hang n be tough
so i had to play rough, had to do the things that hurt
to survive this lifestyle u had to do ur share of dirti decided to change, i wanted out no beef n dramadreamed a life of success where i could show off to my momma
but i understood the rules n every risk that i take
that ur enemies stay wit every move that u make
so i gotta be awake, i gotta take n see it all
cuz no matter who u are one day u gonna fall

ive changed over time and grew stronger in life
wont give up what is mine
but sometimes even angels fall down
ive done all this rightand ive won all these fights
i grew stronger in life
but sometimes we break down n fall apart

A Lovely Story

2006-04-04T21:23:00.000+08:00

There was once a guy who was very much in love with his girl. This romantic guy folded 1,000 pieces of papercranes as a gift to his girl. Although, at that time he was just a small fry in his company, his future doesn't seemed too bright, they were very happy together. Until one day, his girl told him she was going to Paris and will never come back. She also told him that she cannot visualise any future for the both of them, so let's go their own ways there and then ...

Heartbroken, the guy agreed. But when he regained his confidence, he worked hard day and night, slogging his body and mind just to make something out of himself. Finally with all these hardwork and with the help of friends, this guy had set up his own company ... "You never fail until you stop trying."

One rainy day, while this guy was driving, he saw an elderly couple sharing an umbrella in the rain walking to some destination. Even with the umbrella, they were still drenched. It didn't take him long to realise those were his girl's parents. With a heart in getting back at them, he drived slowly beside the couple,wanting them to spot him in his luxury sedan. He wanted them to know that he wasn't the same anymore, he had his own company, car, condo, etc. He made it!

Before the guy can realise, the couple was walking towards a cemetary,and he got out of his car and followed them...and he saw his girl, a photograph of her smiling sweetly as ever at him from her tombstone... and he saw his papercranes beside her Her parents saw him. He asked them why this had happened. They explained, she did not leave for France at all. She was ill with cancer. She had believed that he will make it someday, but she did not want to be his obstacle ... therefore she had chosen to leave him...

"Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have." She had wanted her parents to put his papercranes beside her, because, if the day comes when fate brings him to her again he can take some of those back with him ...

"Once you have loved, you will always love. For what's in your mind may escape but what's in your heart will remain forever." "Find time to realize that there is one person who mean so much to you, for you might wake up one morning losing that person whom you thought meant nothing to you.

The guy just wept ... the worst way to miss someone is to be sitting right beside them but knowing you can't have them and will never c them again..." You don't have to love in words because even through the silences, love is always heard. Do Treasure Everyone & Everything you have.. [You might lose it 1 day...]

And remember: "Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather toskid in sideways - your favorite beverage in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO, what a ride!"
