Tormented (4-in-One)
All those nights I have been dreaming
That I was with you for the time being.
I was happy in those dreams
I never heard shouts nor screams.
I wished those dreams shouldn't have ended
Because in reality they couldn't be manifested.
But in reality can I only prepare
To show you that I really care.
It would be self-deceiving
If I think that those dreams are worth
believing.
But I'd rather live in a fantasy
Than face the painful reality.

Paalam bayan,
Pag-unlad mo'y aking inaasahan
Alaala kita hanggang magkalapit muli
Magsasama tayong nakangiti.
Ako'y iyong anak at ikaw ang ina
Sana'y 'di malilimot ang isa't isa
Mga kapatid ko'y nagpaalam na sa'kin
Akin na silang lilisanin.

Sa'king panaginip ikaw ang nakita
Ubod ng kariktan, puno ng hiwaga
Isa kang diwata, ako'y ginayuma
Sa tunay na mundo ikaw ang pag-asa.
Di mo ba nadama? ika'y sinisinta
Lihim na minahal, Inisip sa twina
Hindi nagbabago pag-ibig ko sa'yo
Di ko yata kaya sa'yo ay malayo.
Ito ba'y masama? Ako ba'y may sala?
Ika'y inibig ko puso'y di nagsara
Pagdugo ng puso aking nadarama
Pag-ibig ko sa'yo mawawala kaya?

Imagine you're the school in that Alice Cooper song. Imagine my delight if that happened. And all that you stand for. I'm talking about evil. I'm thinking about the itch I feel thinking and thinking about it. The ripples joining to engulf me in their tide. Drowning me, filling my life with pain. And I think about it. And it's not right. And I die in thought, and yet alive. And die trying not to think and THINK AND ITCH ABOUT IT!
