Insanity
Walking alone in the dark
Without a clue which is the right way
No clues whether to go left or right
No clues what's at the back or front
What is this place I'm stepping on?
How long have I been here?
How many minutes, hours, days, or weeks?
Time causes a confusion upon me
As time pass by, I started to calm down
Yes, there is no escaping now
Little by little, insanity eats me
Then, I gave up on my journey
Anger, joy, I don't know what to feel
All my emotions seems to be mixed up
My humanity's slowly being erased
Until it vanished from this world

Baliw
Mag-isang naglalakad sa kadiliman
'Di malaman kung sa'n ang tamang daanan
'Di malaman kung kakaliwa o kakanan
'Di alam kung ano'ng likod at harapan
Ano bang lugar 'tong tinatapakan ko?
Ga'no katagal na ba 'kong naririto?
Ilang minuto, oras, araw, o linggo?
Sa oras ay labis akong nalilito
'Di nagtagal, nagsimula 'kong kumalma
Tama, ako'y wala nang lalabasan pa
Unti-unti'y nilalamon ng sistema
Sa paglalakbay, ako ay sumuko na
Nagagalit, natutuwa, ewan ko ba
Mga emosyon, tila'y halo-halo na
Pagkatao'y unti-unting nabubura
Hanggang sa mundo'y bigla nalang nawala
