I’m not all girl, but I’m not all gray, Stuck somewhere between what the world thinks and what I say. Put on a mask, they pull on my strings, Tell me who I’m supposed to be, in this in-between. (Chorus) And I’m halfway home, in my own skin, Not quite out and not quite in. They call me a name that I barely know, But I’m halfway home, and I’m learning to grow. (Verse 2) Mirrors and dresses, they haunt my mind, But that’s not the whole picture, it’s just what they find. I walk through their labels like shadows and smoke, Halfway to nowhere, the silence broke. (Chorus) And I’m halfway home, in my own skin, Not quite out and not quite in. They call me a name that I barely know, But I’m halfway home, and I’m learning to grow. (Bridge) I don’t need the colors they paint on my face, Not their “pink” or “blue,” just give me a space. In a spectrum that twists and bends, I’m lost and found in a world of friends. (Verse 3) Some days I’m hidden, some days I’m loud, I’m halfway proud, and I’m halfway allowed. I wear my truth like scars on my skin, Fighting the battles they’ve placed within. (Chorus) And I’m halfway home, in my own skin, Not quite out and not quite in. They call me a name that I barely know, But I’m halfway home, and I’m learning to grow. (Outro) So don’t box me in or tell me what’s real, I’m carving my path; I’m learning to heal. I’m halfway here, I’m halfway there, But I’m fully me, no matter where.

Lyrics: "Laugh While the World Burns" Intro (Ethereal, Spacey) (Soft, ambient vocals, almost whispered) "We’re drifting on borrowed time, A spark in the endless grime. Does it matter if we fade or shine? We’re all just waiting in line." Verse 1 (Dreamy, builds intrigue) "The clock ticks louder, shadows grow thin, A cosmic joke, where do we begin? Dancing through fog, the laughter ignites, A carnival ride on these endless nights." Bridge 1 (Driving, syncopated rhythm) "Will it be fire? Will it be dust? A moment of chaos, or a gentle rust? The end’s a stage we’re all starring in, Let’s bow and let the show begin." Verse 2 (Playful, slightly more grounded) "We light the match but choke on the smoke, The punchline lands, but we’re still the joke. Spinning in circles, a broken design, A countdown to zero—still we align." Bridge 2 (Energetic, calls for motion) "Will it be fire? Will it be dust? A moment of chaos, or a gentle rust? The end’s a stage we’re all starring in, Let’s bow and let the show begin." Chorus (Anthemic, Layered Harmonies) "Laugh while the world burns, Sing while it turns. It’s not the end, it’s just pretend— Who decides what we learn? Laugh while the world burns." Verse 3 (Reflective, stripped down) "Eyes like mirrors, faces like masks, What’s left to hide when there’s no past? The skies collapse, but the dance remains, We lose ourselves, yet feel no pain." Bridge 3 (Same as before, driving energy) "Will it be fire? Will it be dust? A moment of chaos, or a gentle rust? The end’s a stage we’re all starring in, Let’s bow and let the show begin." Chorus 2 (Bigger, richer with textures) "Laugh while the world burns, Sing while it turns. It’s not the end, it’s just pretend— Who decides what we learn? Laugh while the world burns." Coda 1 (Softer, ethereal return) "Falling stars, broken lines, It’s all the same, it’s all divine. Hold the flame, feel the thrill, Burn until the world stands still." Chorus 3 (Final anthem, triumphant) "Laugh while the world burns, Sing while it turns. It’s not the end, it’s just pretend— Who decides what we learn? Laugh while the world burns." Coda 2 (Outro, fades to the Intro’s tone) "We’re drifting on borrowed time, A spark in the endless grime. Does it matter if we fade or shine? We’re all just waiting in line."

[Verse] I saw her yesterday laughing in the rain Holding his hand with no trace of pain We used to talk for hours bout nothin at all Now she doesn't see me she's got someone to call [Verse 2] We sat by the river watching the sky Now she's got him with stars in her eyes I wonder if she ever thinks of us Or if all that was is turning to dust [Chorus] She used to like me now she's got someone new I'm left standing here feeling so blue All our memories they're starting to fade Can't help but miss her every single day [Verse 3] She wears my old sweater like it's no big deal He doesn't know the stories or the things we'd feel Her favorite song playing on the radio Makes me think of her and I just can't let go [Bridge] I caught myself dreaming bout those times When her smile was for me and the world felt fine Now it's all shadows of what it used to be She's moved on but I'm still stuck in the dream [Chorus] She used to like me now she's got someone new I'm left standing here feeling so blue All our memories they're starting to fade Can't help but miss her every single day
verse) A bucket of water Walking towards a tree Stopped to wonder What could it be [Verse 2] A whirlwind A voice What did it say [Chorus] Don't drink Don't smoke Don't defile your body Leaves danced in the breeze Giving the bucket quite a tease. Chorus "Keep your heart pure, Let your spirit be free, Hold on to the truth, And you'll find the key."

Title: "Pag-ibig na Mali" Tempo: 70 BPM (Slow) Key: C Major Verse 1 C Puso'y nahulog sa maling pagkakataon Am Ang puso mo’y sa iba na pala nakatuon F Ngunit bakit, sa piling mo'y payapa G Kahit alam kong mali ang nadarama Chorus C Pag-ibig na mali, ngunit di ko kayang itanggi Am Sa tuwing kapiling ka, ang mundo'y ngumingiti F Ngunit ako’y may tanong, ito ba'y may kahahantungan? G O hanggang lihim na lang sa aking isipan? Verse 2 C Bakit ganito, tadhana’y napaka-salimuot Am Pagmamahal sa’yo, kahit bawal, di maikubli F Ang ngiti mo’y parang tala sa kalangitan G Ngunit alam kong ako'y nasa maling daan Chorus C Pag-ibig na mali, ngunit di ko kayang itanggi Am Sa tuwing kapiling ka, ang mundo'y ngumingiti F Ngunit ako’y may tanong, ito ba'y may kahahantungan? G O hanggang lihim na lang sa aking isipan? Bridge Am Sana’y palayain mo ang puso ko’t damdamin F Dahil di ko kaya ang sakit ng iyong lihim G Kung di rin lang ako, bakit pa tayo nandito? C Masakit mang bumitiw, ito’y tama para sa’yo Final Chorus C Pag-ibig na mali, ngunit di ko kayang itanggi Am Sa tuwing kapiling ka, ang mundo'y ngumingiti F Ngunit ang tunay na pagmamahal ay malaya G Kaya’t palalayain kita kahit na masaya Outro C Pag-ibig na mali, kailangang pakawalan Am Ang pusong ito, sa tamang daan hahanapin F Ang pag-ibig na walang alinlangan G Paalam na, hanggang dito na lang

[Verse] Worn out skates roll down the street Chasing a speedy train A puppet waves with wooden hands In this playful toy parade [Verse 2] The doll and her stuffed animal Share secrets by the cars Blocks stacked high reach the sky These moments never far [Chorus] It's the toy parade come join the fun From the morning light till the day is done Bikes and balls and planes take flight Action figures in the fading light [Bridge] Every toy has a tale to tell In a world where we pretend From a tiny tool to a giant gem They’re our best friends till the end [Verse 3] Games on a rainy afternoon In a world of fantasy Building dreams with plastic blocks So much more than what we see [Chorus] It's the toy parade come join the fun From the morning light till the day is done Bikes and balls and planes take flight Action figures in the fading light
