Don’t worry. I won’t steal your heart. I will drill through the toughest part of you and suck away that spring that runs through your heart. Now, would you let me in? [insert consent]
Understanding you means understanding your core. Getting to it is painful. Getting out is painful, too. But could you numb me and take away the pain?
We could afford some numbness. But you see, pain is pain. We could numb it again and again. You would need to heal to truly take away the pain. Then why do I have to go through that horrible pain?
Because maybe, just maybe, I can heal you.
Didn’t I tell you it will hurt even before we started?
Hindi ko alam kung ano na tong pinapasok ko. Madugo pala.
You ain’t getting through the core until it’s gritty.
Ang iba ang nilalaman, punong-puno, sobra-sobra ang ibibigay. Ang iba naman ang kalooban puro peklat na, wala ka nang makuha. Ano kaya ikaw?
(song that is waiting for music…lol)
I
just wanted you to be brave
just wished you to challenge me
want to know you could take
yes, that horribly beautiful mess that I am
if you just, just, just
if you love me for that
if you just be happy to playfully challenge me
cause that, that makes me happy
chorus
duel my mind, glory be my heart
because I was about ready to take you there
I was about ready to take on the war
to have you, to be with you,
in that battle of corrupted societal norms
that threat of maladjusted conservatism
and just plain antagonism…
ready to take you there
if only…
you would duel my mind, glory be my heart
II
Just wanted to see the smile on your eyes
when I’m with you
I just wanted to rid you of that quiet worry
yes, that quiet quiet doubt of me
if you just, just, just
if you be yourself
if you just grow with me
trust that, that will make you happy
bridge
because I would not have let you in
if I didn’t think you were my sense of maturity and bravery
letting you in
is the irreversible step of letting you see my fragility
am i wrong to have let you in?
