Just Because

Porque

Performed by: Maldita

***

Tulala lang sa’king kwarto

At nagmu-muni-muni

Ang tanong sa’king sarili

Sa’n ako nagkamali

Bakit sa’yo pa nagkagusto

Parang bula ika’y naglaho

Chorus:

Porque contigo yo ya iskuji

Aura mi corazon ta supri

Bien simple lang iyo ta pidi

Era cinti tu el cosa yo ya cinti

Ta pidi milagro, vira’l tiempo

El mali hace derecho

Na dimio reso ta pidi yo

Era olvidas yo contigo

Ang lahat ay binigay ko

Ngayon ay sising-sisi

Sobra sobra ang parusa

Di alam kung kaya pa

Wag nang lumapit

At tumawag pa at baka masampal lang kita

Di babalikan

Magsisi ka man

Ako ay lisanin

Porque contigo yo ya iskuji

Aura mi corazon ta supri

Bien simple lang iyo ta pidi

Era cinti tu el cosa yo ya cinti

Bakit ikaw pa ang napili

Ngayon ang puso ko ay sawi

Kay simple lang ng aking hiling

Na madama mo rin ang pait at pighati

Sana’y magmilagro

Mabalik ko

Mali ay maiderecho

Pinagdarasal ko sa’king puso

Na mabura na sa isip ko

Before the day ended, I got a text from my friend:  "When one is in love, the only thing that makes sense is everything between them. But when one is in deceit, everything around them makes sense." 

But it's not as though I had been deceived. In truth, I was the one who was too blind to see everything that was happening around me. All the clues were laid out before me, I was merely preoccupied with my own assumptions, which basically made me end up on the "losing side". Somehow, though, the experience has taught me to be more observant, to be more keen, and stay on track. It does not help at all to assume facts or endings by simply relying on the words uttered; the sugar-coated praises, or manipulative remarks, or misleading conversations. 

One must always be wary of what others say, be it in their nature, or simply a whim. Try to be as objective as you can, empathize, put yourself in his/her shoes, and see the bigger picture. Try thinking out of the box and see where everything is going based on the signs given out. Doesn't hurt to be careful so you won't get hurt. Emotionally speaking, coming from a prideful creature whose ego had been grabbed by the head and dragged across the wall to bleed and crack open the skull.

They say it is impossible to keep emotions from interfering with work. I believe otherwise. In one way or another, emotional burden or mental stress can greatly affect one's performance on a job. And it sucks that such a little thing has racked my brain so hard it turned into mush. SNAP.
