Sa pagmulat
Ng aking mata ako'y ginising
Ng ihip ng hangin
Ang sikat ng araw makulay

Sa tabi ng ilog
Parang may tumatawag (na pabulong)
Ako'y lumapit
Sa puno'y may natanaw dumilim ang araw

Bumigat bigla ang aking dibdib
Tibok ng puso'y bumilis
Ako'y hindi mapakali
Ako'y naduduwal

Sa pagtitig ng kanyang mata
Ako'y kanyang hinusgahan
Ligaya kong naramdaman
Binawi sa akin

At hindi ko maalala
Kung saan galing ito
Mga bahid ng dugo
Dumikit sa aking mga kuko

Tumakbo lumayo sa lugar na 'to
Lalamunan ko'y tuyong-tuyo
Tumakbo lumalayo sa titig mo
Sa mata ng Diyos

Biglang umikot ang paningin
Liwanag ng araw biglang dilim
Malambing na ihip ng hangin
Ngayon ay matalim

Ako'y nawala sa 'king sarili
Pati ang lupa'y gumanti
Bato at bundok at puno man
Sumisigaw sumisigaw

At ngayon ko nakikita
Ang lahat ng kasalanan
Tinaboy sa ulan
Init at kamunduhan

Tumakbo lumayo sa lugar na 'to lalamunan ko'y tuyung-tuyo
Tumakbo lumayo at magtago sa mata ng Diyos
Mata ng Diyos

Inalok ako ng isang ahas
Pula't matamis na mansanas
Pilit ko man hindi makaiwas
Sa mata ng Diyos

    There's actually two meaning of this song for me. One would be the obvious one...the eye of God watching everything he (Basti) does.

    The other one is that this song maybe about the effects of the drug, crystal meth...otherwise known to us Filipinos as shabu...all those words he's saying about what's happening to him...very much like what would happen to you if you're under the effects of shabu.

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
