She (For Liz)

Parachute

She has no problems with secrets
She knows how to keep them
She never felt the need to let them show
And I've had no trouble with speaking
Or trusting my instincts
But maybe this is one that I should know
But as I'm waiting in
The devil on my shoulder stares
Laughing at the one thing I can't get, it's what I need

She, she is the words that I can't find
How can the only thing that's killing me, make me feel so alive
And I couldn't speak
I couldn't breathe to save my life
All of my chances swim like sinking ships
This time it's it
I'll drown or make her mine

My vocal cords have been fighting
My mouth likes to spite me
It never says the words that come to mind
And I brought a stick to a gun fight
And I'm stuck with my tongue tied
I run, but I can't hide what's always there

She, she is the words that I can't find
How can the only thing that's killing me, make me feel so alive
And I couldn't speak
I couldn't breathe to save my life
All of my chances swim like sinking ships
This time it's it
I'll drown or make her mine

I can see these things I do
And never seem to follow through

She, she is the words that I can't find
How can the only thing that's killing me, make me feel so alive

She, she is the words that I can't find
How can the only thing that's killing me, make me feel so alive
And I couldn't speak
I couldn't breathe to save my life
All of my chances swim like sinking ships
This time it's it
I'll drown or make her mine

She, she is the words that I can't find
How can the only thing that's killing me, make me feel so alive
And I couldn't speak
I couldn't breathe to save my life
All of my chances swim like sinking ships
This time it's it
I'll drown or make her mine

The reason I came up with the title. Trip ko lang yan.

Deanna's POV

Kinuha ko ang tubig na inabot ni Glynn sa akin pagkatapos ng makaubos hiningang practice, feeling ko gusto kaming patayin ni coach. Ang hirap ng practice namin ngayon parang wala na nga akong tubig sa katawan sa sobrang pawis ko.

"Kaya pa?" Tanong ni Beatrice na siyang captain namin ngayon sa team, it's her last year kaya hindi na kami nagrereklamo kahit mahirap ang training.

We wanted the championship for the graduating students and for the school as well, malapit ng mag-umpisa ang interschool athletic games and we're training real hard.

"Anong mahirap don? Kulang pa nga eh... tara balik sa practice."

Bigla niya naman akong binatukan.

"Yabang nito, halos maubos na nga hininga mo eh. Pektusan kita gusto mo?"

"Binatokan mo na nga pepektusan mo pa, ano na lang ang maiiwan sa dignidad ko?"

"Hay, ewan ko sayo Deanna ligo na don may pupuntahan tayo."

"Kain?" My eyes lit up upon saying the word I'm most excited with.

"Patay gutom," she chuckled.

"Deannaaaaa...."

Napalingon akong bigla sa tumawag sa akin, lumaki ang ngiti ko ng makita si Gianna, my senior before but she just graduated last year.

"Ate Gin, anong ginagawa mo dito?" Excited akong yumakap sa kanya kahit hindi pa ako naliligo at basa pa ng pawis. Bakit ba tanggap naman ako nito kahit anong amoy ko. Haha
