Wake-up Call (draft)

Pearl-of-the-orient, home to beautiful white-sand beaches and a place where everybody is happy, these are mere comments about our own beloved country, Philippines. It is of great honor to be a Filipino. For in this country History has been made. Although the beauty of a country lasts, recent events wretch and little by little tore our country into pieces.

Graft, Corruption and Poverty are examples of the unending cycle of problems which deliberately affect our country’s reputation. Before, men would indeed bow down to us as if we are the greatest of them all. Now those men, who bowed down to us, are the ones who soar high up in the sky. So high that it makes it hard for us to see how did they do it. Don’t you envy them? I for one envy them because I also want to fly like them. Fly up in the sky as free as an eagle. Even though some may think it is easy to fly like them, they thought wrong. How can we fly like the others if our own leaders are fighting over one another, bearing false witness to their competitors just to make the public see that they are a better person at the position. These leaders only think of having a higher salary. As a reaction to the wrong doings these men make, people subject to rallying. For some reason, those people who are rallying are the ones responsible for voting these officials. As they say, they had been double crossed, fooled and used. They didn’t know before that if the government is ignorant, reckless and corrupt it is because the people tolerated such things.

But would we allow these past mistakes still divest us of our dreams? The answer is easy, NO! No! We won’t be affected anymore. No! We won’t let corruption still delude the minds of our upcoming young and talented children. Children who I know will be the leaders who will uplift our nation. Now is the time to move and act right. Now is the time to prove other countries that even though we crashed to the ground we still have the courage and eagerness to come up to a higher place. Now is the time to show our fellow Filipinos abroad that they don’t need to suffer foreign discriminations anymore.

To accomplish these things, we need the help of the parents. The parents are the ones who must teach their children values. Values that would help make the lives of their children be a fruitful one. Values that our ever-powerful and most gracious God once told and reiterated to his disciples and the people he meets. The will of the people must be strong. We should be determined to change the fate of our pitiful country. I know that one day our country will be looked up once again. I know that one day the next generation of leaders will never repeat the same mistakes our current leaders are doing. I know that one day, my kids and the sons and daughters of my kids will never experience what we, the current generation of achievers, are facing today.

As I conclude this speech, I would like everyone who will read this simple speech know my motto:
“Even if the morrow is barren of promises, nothing shall forestall my return. I will be a leader which will act like dew that would quench this land from its impurities. It is to spare the good traits and blessings. I offer you all this Silent Sacrifice.”

A Special World

A special world for you and me A special bond one cannot see It wraps us up in its cocoon And holds us fiercely in its womb.



Its fingers spread like fine spun gold Gently nestling us to the fold Like silken thread it holds us fast Bonds like this are meant to last.


And though at times a thread may break A new one forms in its wake To bind us closer and keep us strong In a special world, where we belong.

YOur caLL

Waiting for your call, call I'm sick, call I'm angry call I'm desperate for your voice Listening to the song we used to sing In the car, do you remember Butterfly, Early Summer It's playing on repeat, Just like when we would meet Like when we would meet coz I was born to tell you I love you and I am torn to do what I have to, to make you mine Stay with me tonight Stripped and polished, I am new, I am fresh I am feeling so ambitious, you and me, flesh to flesh Cause every breath that you will take when you are sitting next to me will bring life into my deepest hopes, What's your fantasy? (What's your, what's your...) coz I was born to tell you I love you and I am torn to do what I have to, to make you mine Stay with me tonight And I'm tired of being all alone, and this solitary moment makes me want to come back home x4 (I know everything you wanted isn't anything you have) I was born to tell you I love you and I am torn to do what I have to, to make you mine Stay with me tonight I was born to tell you I love you and I am torn to do what I have to, to make you mine Stay with me tonight (I know everything you wanted isn't anything you have)

When i look into your eyes

When I look into your eyes, I am nothing but surprised. I know about your past and how it didn't last, How you got hurt, burnt, Abused and used, and i bet your confused. You deserve better, if not always and forever. You said you didn't care, But you couldn't bare, Isn't it such a scare. Let me into your life and Ill show you that I care. Like an endless dream Ill always be there. I know your busy but please make time. Working so much should be a crime. You need time alone, and some time to think, Let your feelings out why having a drink. Forget about the past and look to the future, I know your not ready, and I'm not trying to push you, Just wanted to let you know that ill always be with you.

You will be in my thoughts

Should you ever feel alone
If finding times hard to bare
You can still count on me
Know I shall always be there

You shall be in my thoughts
If you are hurting, I feel it too
It is my friendship sincerity
I shall forever share with you

There each step of the way
My support you can depend
I will listen if you need me
With love your forever friend

Lonely Nights

Since you’re gone
There is an empty space
Since you’re gone
The world is not the same

I go back to the places we’ve been
It feels like you’re still there
I live all those moments again
Wishing you were here

Since you’re gone
There is a lonely heart
Since you’re gone
Nothing is like it was

There are memories all over the place
Bringing it back all so clear
I remember all of those days
Wishing you were here

Since you’re gone
There is a heart that bleeds
Since you’re gone
I’m not the man I used to be

I follow you're steps in the snow
The traces disappear
We know what we’ve lost when it’s gone
I’m wishing you were here

All those lonely nights
I lied on my bed and cried
I still think of you
Yes I do

I think back in time

I think back in time,
Where we had fun.
I thought it was a time,
But i still don't know.
I think of you,
All day long.
I love you, do you love me too?
I don't think so,
But i do hope!
I hoped you would never go,
But you did.
Loved it, your smile,
Your looks, your hair.
I would even walk a mile
Just to find you standing there.
I'm thinking of you,
I really love you!

Stop this world

Okay,
I woke up in heaven today
She kissed me I floated away, away
Never felt anything so great
Alright,
Now I brace myself for the fights
Something must go wrong cause it's way too right
I’m light as a feather tonight



Cause I can’t feel the ground
Someone let me down
I never felt so high as I do now
It's too good to be true
I don’t deserve you
I never felt a love strong enough to
Stop this world from spinning
Stop this world from spinning



And I see,
Heaven when she looks at me
In her smile is the most amazing dream
And in her eyes I fall asleep
And I hope,
Hope that she can see through the smoke
Of my imperfections into my soul
And my heart where she has control (she has control)

Cause I can’t feel the ground
Someone let me down
I never felt so high as I do now
Its too good to be true
I don’t deserve you
I never felt a love strong enough to
Stop this world from spinning



Happiness like this can never last (can never last)
Turns into the memories of the past (turns into the memories of the past)
And today it's going just as well (Ohh)
(going just as fast)


And I can’t feel the ground
Someone let me down
I said I’ve never been so high as I am now
Its too good to be true
I don’t deserve you
I never felt a love strong enough to
Stop this world from spinning
Stop this world from spinning

On top of the world - Boyslikegirls

Look up the stars are fading
And I am still here waiting
To see you again
Be with you my friend
When the moon is gone forever
I hope you're up there somewhere
I'll see you again
Be with you my friend
Cause all the roads they
lead to where you are
And all the streetlights
shine like they were stars
That's where you are

 Let's spend tonight
on top of the world
And we can do anything
We can be anything
 I'll meet you tonight
on top of the world
As real as it seems
You're only in my dreams

 Look out across the water
 Faces of lonely daughters
and mothers who care
But just can't be there
Swear that I will see you someday
 I have to find a way
To show you I care
Even if you're not there

So I'm following the
road to where you are
(Meet you tonight on top of)
The streetlights they will
guide me to the stars
That's where you are


My heart is empty without you
Sometimes you don't know what you do
And I need you tonight
I'll fall asleep and it's alright
Close my eyes and I'll be by your side


 Let's spend tonight
on top of the world
As real as it seems
You're only in my dreams

A twist in my story =

Slow down, the world isn't watching us break down
It's safe to say we are alone now, we're alone now
Not a whisper, the only noise is the receiver
I'm counting the seconds until you break the silence
So please just break the silence

The whispers turn to shouting
The shouting turns to tears
Your tears turn into laughter
And it takes away our fears

So you see, this world doesn't matter to me
I'll give up all I had just to breathe
The same air as you till the day that I die
I can't take my eyes off of you

And I'm longing, for words to describe how I'm feeling
I'm feeling inspired
My world just flip turned upside down
It turns around, say what's that sound
It's my heart beat, it's getting much louder
My heart beat, is stronger than ever
I'm feeling so alive, I'm feeling so alive

My whispers turn to shouting
The shouting turns to tears
Your tears turn into laughter
And it takes away our fears

So you see, this world doesn't matter to me
I'll give up all I had just to breathe
The same air as you till the day that I die
I can't take my eyes off of you

I'm finally waking up, a twist in my story
It's time I open up, and let your love right through me
I'm finally waking up, a twist in my story
It's time I open up, and let your love right through me
That's what you get
When you see your life in someone else's eyes
That's what you get, that's what you get

So you see, this world doesn't matter to me
I'll give up all I had just to breathe
The same air as you till the day that I die
I can't take my eyes off of you
So you see, This world doesn't matter to me
I'll give up all I had just to breathe
The same air as you till the day that I die
