VISIONS OF MISSILES
(M. Baluyut, 2009)
I have visions of missiles falling from the sky
It's a fear that it might happen soon
I have visions of missiles falling from the sky... Hmmm...
There are no consolations
No need for explanations
And you don't have to change my mind
By the time I see those things fall from the sky
I see airplanes and missiles falling from the sky
The dreams that I dream these days
I see airplanes and missiles falling from the sky... Oh no...
There is no chance of escaping
There are no certainties or guarantees
And you don’t have to change my mind
It's a fear that it might happen anytime...
There are no consolations
No need for explanations
And you don't have to change my mind
Are the visions just an echo of the times?

THE GIRL WHO SPOKE IN SONGS
(M. Baluyut, 2010)
disclaimers came in numbers
and i knew from the start
that it wasn’t meant to last
you passed by through the window
uninvited but wanted
and you lent me your helping hand
you told me not to worry
there are no strings attached
entertained me till the sun went up
and then you’ll leave again
and i’ll go on pretending
just by sticking to the plan
why you’re so inviting
i didn’t understand
you’re one of a kind
a rare thing to find
only to know
our love wouldn’t grow
you’re the girl who spoke in songs
it wasn’t a mistake
but you insisted it was
it was hard for me to understand
yet little did we know
that the feelings have shown
but you said that wasn’t part of the plan
as strange as it may seemed
we were good as a team
we crossed borders, broke the rules and all
but isn’t it a shame
situations to blame
ending things just as soon as it began
it strikes like a lightning
only to understand
that you’re one of a kind
a rare thing to find
only to know
our love wouldn’t grow
you’re the girl who spoke in songs
where i am you’ll find me
where you are, there you’ll stand
there’s nothing to know
there’s nothing to show
only to learn
that all things were burned
you’re the girl who spoke in songs

ME & MR. D
(M. Baluyut, 2009)
There He is watching over me
Just waiting slowly for my soul to flee
I feel the cold sting in his hands
It feels quite weird and I don't understand
Hello there, tell me why you’re here?
I’m not quite ready and I’m full of fear
Don’t want to see what’s on the other side
I hope that you’ll find time to change your mind
I wish that I could tell them the things that are happ’nin’ inside my mind
But You wouldn’t let me, You're pulling me further to the other side
Hello there, oh don’t take me, please?
You've got my baby crying on her knees
The light's too pretty on the other side
Stepping over feels just like a crime
The blackness of it all, the wonder of what’s next just seems to be sublime
You're giving me a wink, sending me some signals I don’t want to file…
Hello, Death, oh please don’t take me, please?
But if it’s my time then go take me please
I feel the cold sting in your hands
It feels quite weird and now I understand.
Oh, Death, don't you take me please
But if it's time then go and take me here
Take my hand you know I won't fight
I'm turning liquid I can see the Light

THE HUMAN CONDITION
(M. Baluyut, 2009)
If there's one thing that Ive always learned
Is that I will be true to myself
To be true to the fact
That it will never end
Hurt and pain shall always remain
And behind all the senseless excitement
There's a hole from within that will stay
We forgive and forget
Then it happens again
Like the rain that falls down in May
Well we wake up and talk about things
Hoping it never happens again
But as soon as you speak
You will lay down the heat
This blood and war, its all but the same
But the best thing we can do for now
Is to hope we can still change someday
But for now here we are
Taking things by the hour
We absorb, we pretend then we pray

I FELL IN LOVE WITH YOU
(M. Baluyut, 2009)
I remember when I didn’t know what to do
It was bright outside but deep inside I’m blue, oooh
Then you came around and knocked into my door
There’s this feeling that I’ve never felt before
And then there was you
I fell in love with you, oooh
I never felt so new
When I fell in love with you, oooh
I'm a fool 'cos I've never noticed it before
I was beaten, battered, shattered to the core, oooh
Then you picked me up and told me what to do
It was in your eyes that I finally found the Truth
I knew it was you
Yes, I fell in love with you, oooh
Yes I knew it was through
When I fell in love with you, ahhh
And then there was you
I fell in love with you, oooh
I never felt so new
Aaaaah...

BIRTHDAY GIRL
(M. Baluyut, 2010)
Birthday Girl
There you are
I want to thank you
For being so good to me
Beautiful wonder
You're one of a kind, can't you see?
Oh, there you are
Birthday Girl
Birthday Girl
Pretty and free
It's nice to see you
So happy and full of glee
I sometimes wonder
If your love's too good for me
But here you are with me
Birthday Girl
Birthday Girl
You're older than me
But it doesn't matter
I love you for that, you see
You're better off and wiser
You're filled to the brim, can't you see?
Go fly and be free
Birthday Girl
You know it's your day today, baby
So blow that cake for me
Birthday Girl

Detach Detach
(M. Baluyut, 2008)
I feel anger I feel hate
Somehow I just could not relate
A wave of feelings overwhelm
Ask me now, I couldn't really tell
Is it the work of my own fate?
Or is it just a hazy state?
Yes there are answers to be found
But I just go spinning 'round and 'round
(Oh)
Well I don't know, I just can't make these feelings go away
Sometimes I feel just like a child
That I can get too very wild
All these demons in my head
I feel so agitated
They say you are the Golden Child
But I say you're just pretty Mild
There are no answers to these dreams
I feel so underrated
(Oh)
Well I don't know, I just can't make these feelings go away
But then and again I may be wrong
I guess I will just sing this song
Despite of all the growing pains
My soul is elevating
There is no gas to this machine
I want my grass to turn to green
Someday I'm gonna get my find
I will get relocated
(Oh)
Well I don't know, I just can't make these feelings go away
And I just don't know now what to say...
