Theme Songs

so. a lot of things have happened already since the last update. not that I'm going anywhere with all the activity, though. it's just that i've been feeling really stagnant the past few months and this month has shown some hope for me. maybe everything will turn out for the best. i might be seeing changes, maybe not. all i could really do right now, is wait. i think.

maybe all i need to do is get off my butt and not be mindful of all the things that are racing through my mind right now. or, if they're too pressing to ignore, just write all of them down here. hehe.

ces and i used to have theme songs for almost everything. when we were still in college, back when we still held functions for one of our classes, the song "suntok sa buwan" by session road was getting a lot of airplay in some of our favorite radio stations. we always heard it playing whenever we were prepping for the functions, the night before and when cooking the day of the event. it became a sort of lucky charm for us, things would turn out great whenever we heard it. and when we didn't hear it, well, disaster did not exactly strike, but let's just say we almost had to do over everything. hehe. emotional chefs and all.

so, i looked up the lyrics of the song:

Suntok sa Buwan
[Session Road]

Hindi mo ba alam
Damdamin ko'y pinagtakpan
Makasama ka'y suntok sa buwan'
Di mo nga alam
Mundo mo nga'y iyong tignan
Kung ganyan, walang pupuntahan
Hindi ko 'to gusto
Pero 'wag kang lalayo

Itanong mo sa akin
At tatanungin ko rin
Kung ika'y aamin
Lahat ay gagawin

Itanong mo sa akin
At tatanungin ko rin
Kung ika'y aamin
Lahat ay gagawin

'Di mo napapansin
Kailangan mo akong dinggin
'Di habang buhay ika'y aantayin
Ito'y aking hiling
At sana naman ay tanggapin
Nang ang puso ko'y 'di nabibitin

Hindi ko 'to gusto
Pero 'wag kang lalayo

Itanong mo sa akin
At tatanungin ko rin
Kung ika'y aamin
Lahat ay gagawin

Itanong mo sa akin
At tatanungin ko rin
Kung ika'y aamin
Lahat ay gagawin

just as i was starting to get a move on with my life, i would ride home with ces. we started talking about things and i had blurted out that i wanted a sign. so, we turned to the almighty car radio. hehehe. and this is the song it blurted out. it did not make sense really, at first. then i heard it again, and again, just before something significant happened. i realized that it was sort of true for me. i'm not in any trouble or anything, but i wouldn't have gotten off the couch if it wasn't for someone konking me on the head. hehe. *tear*

How to Save a Life
[The Fray]

Step one you say we need to talk
He walks you say sit down it’s just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through

Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
And you begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Let him know that you know best
Cause after all you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence

Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you’ve told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
And pray to god he hears you and

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road

Or break with the ones you’ve followed
He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he’ll say he’s just not the same
And you’ll begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

How to save a life
How to save a life

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

How to save a life
How to save a life
