BLOOM
(R. Leyco)

I find myself in awkward situations
Grown out of my skin in crazed fascinations
Well I tend to speak my mind on occasion
I learn to pacify my own persuasion

I am grown up now
I am learning how
And I can catch myself if I fall
Slowly learning it all

I will meet you there to watch the sunrise
You will swear into my eyes as we paint us in the sky

I want to fall between submission and despotism
I yearn to exercise my idealism
Into something worthwhile
I’ll slowly turn this dial

I am a picture in an empty room
For all to see and for me to finally bloom
Into something worthwhile
I’ll slowly turn this dial

IT'S YOU
(R. Leyco)

What have I done to make you mad at me?
What do you do that drives me crazy?
You leave a mark and you let it burn
Just speak your voice makes my stomach turn
Oh it's you.

I'd just like to thank you for
giving me something to look forward to
elude any form of war and
kiss goodbye what I saw before

I'm mesmerized by your eminent lucidity
utterly surprised by my own crazed stupidity
all derived from what they call "love"
never to think that I'd dance the stupid dance
never to think that I'd chance the stupid chance
I never thought that I'd fall this bad
Your fickle mood leaves me so damn sad
Oh it's you.

DRIVE
(R. Leyco)

Drive, Drive by the city
I see the fame but, feel the shame bombard me.
Stunned and gone numb
Deaf, blind, and dumb.
I've tried so hard to sway delirium.

I'll give to you
my lungs to breath I think it seems
I am falling down
misplace my heart
all torn apart
I am falling down

Run, fast as fast as I can crawl
I smell the sick all plastered on the walls
Stunned gone numb deaf, blind and dumb
I've tried so hard to sway delirium.

BLINK
(R. Leyco)

A warm incessant glow
to feign what we know
prophesized sadness appears

I gazed at your eyes
when you blinked at the peak
of something that I thought was so sweet

life had offered me a moment to rejoice
when I started to sing I had lost my voice

Before I closed my eyes and I looked away
you left, before there was anything I could say

FROM HER TO HIM
(R. Leyco)

You said "Hey, I wanna talk to you”
Derived from a strange phone call on a Sunday afternoon
Never have I enjoyed a thunderstorm like this
Who knew that thunder and lightning could create happiness

Oh I could've lied like "Say Goodbye"
and go back to being friends
but I changed my mind and I know why
this how the story begins
between us.

I sat and watched you
fiddle with your keys
that night I never wanted you
to leave oh no yeah yeah yeah

The stronger our words
the harder it began to rain
the touch of your hand
was driving me insane
oh I remember that look
glossy-eyed it was my heart you took

STUPID
(R. Leyco)

You wear your hair down
Try and cover your face
Your eyes have never seen the sky
People call you crazy you just wonder why
But it’s ok. It’s ok. You’re just fine

Me with my crowded teeth
Preposterous beliefs
You call me insane, you call me anything
‘Cause you, you think you’re so great
You think you’re so fine
But in reality you’re just stupid
You’re insane and you’re deranged

You, you’re such a happy thing
Don’t ever let them take that away
And I, I wore the same shoes
that you just purchased today

Why? Why must I be judged?
So what if I’m painted brown?
I’ll knock you down and steal you crown.
So what? So what if I choose to
To pain myself blue.
Don’t look at me like I’m crazy
‘Cause you’re just stupid
You’re insane and you’re deranged

Just wait and you’ll see
I’ll be the latest fad of this world
I’m just a little happy girl

MY GRIP TOO SOON
(R. Leyco)

I am drawn to
always spawned to
toss things in the air

Only to fall
and leave it all
behind in my mind

'Cause I tend to release my grip too soon
and leave it all up to the stars and the moon

Oh there I entrust my silhouette
to be the conscience in my head

To kick up stones
and bones that I've dropped
become my confidant.

While I chance everything
and I'll dance and I'll sing
why? why? why?

RUNNING LATE
(R. Leyco)

I'm running late almost every single day
stressing about life even though it doesn't pay
you may think that I am morally wrong
but understand my song

I'm not saying that it’s totally not right
but that it takes some guts to put up with the fight
waking up 5:30 every single morning
I'm just giving you a warning
I'm just giving you a warning

I'm running late I always seem to be
I'm running late a clock has no meaning to me

When you give me a certain time to come around
make it an hour early
Sometimes my body needs a big cup of Joe
well I guess I'm a true Filipino
yeah I guess I'm a true Filipino

CARPE DIEM
(R. Leyco)

Aren't we all somewhat callow inside?
Hidden talents and feelings we hide
we struggle to fight for what we believe
that little wish we make on new year's eve

take a look at me
I am living proof of this theory
I'm not gonna give
I am going to follow my dreams

Carpe Diem
let me seize the day
think positive in my mind
Carpe Diem
take action
you can do anything that you want

Never worry if you're last
your life will go too fast
don't stress yourself

So he is with her
Should I tell him how I feel
or is it too late?

THE TIDE IS HIGH
(Holt/Evans/Barrett)

The tide is high but I'm holding on
I'm gonna be your number one
I'm not the kind of girl who gives up just like that
Oh, no

It's not the things you do that tease and wound me bad
But it's the way you do the things you do to me

Every girl wants you to be her man
But I'll wait my dear 'til it's my turn

TOP OF PAGE
WONDERFUL FOR YOU
(R. Leyco)

Its like I love you through a wall of Plexiglas
If I pursue you I'll fall straight on my ass
I see her cry while I feel you die

I'm so surprised by this little intervention
your happiness was solely my intention
bid good-byes while its me who dies

So beautiful for you
Its so wonderful for you
but quite sad for me

There I go
tie some rocks to my feet and throw me overboard
storms and words we said
tangled in a web of fascination and admiration

I wanted to be your last call of the day
be the one to complete what you say
I'm glad that I know how you feel
even though it is
turning my life so surreal

SOMETHING HUMAN
(R. Leyco)

I stand outside looking in
picturesque and movie-driven
I wait for the credits to scroll
I become that girl cast in that role

Wide-eyed and mystified I am
crazy girl you have, you've grown up
I think I am what you see
for once I stare back at me

Do you think I've changed?
Misunderstood and out of range
I'm back I knew I would and this is me
for once you stare at me

I see in you a better me
erase my past and history
I think I am what you see
for once I stare back at me

Do you think I've changed?
Misunderstood and out of range
I'm back I knew I would and this is me
for once you stare at me

Piece by piece I'm something human
I see my future lead right to him
Smile without thought
Laugh without fear
Love without reluctance to finally feel

I know I am all you see
for once I stare back at me!

Do you think I've changed?
Misunderstood and out of range
I'm back I knew I would and this is me
for once you stare at me.

FOLK SONG
(R. Leyco)

Oh I am armed with a grin and paintbrush in my hand
Forgetting myself and how tall I used to stand

Oh blank canvas and a freed imagination
I feared intimidation

Oh I kept all my thoughts
All locked up in a box
‘Til the adhesive worn thin
Breaking the tape and unveiling weight upon my heart
Always

Oh pick a flower in a field with a thousand two
Just remember that I'm not you
It may be passing soon
In my life there are changes that occurred
I fell in love with D.
Oh this is meant to be
