Contiguous energies.
So much affinity
between you and me.
Spacious skies.
Constellations
of Black Stars.
Verse 2:
My problems
and struggles.
You're the only
one who can
help me get
through them.
I looked up
to you since
I was a teenager.
You are my role model.
Chorus 1:
Brilliant Bright Light.
Keep igniting yourself
in the darkest places.
Oh Brilliant Bright Light
Keep illuminating as you
spread your wings and fly.

There is something
about you. You are
like a comet glowing
in the space. The

remains. Why can't
we still be together?

Calendar Days
03:16
|
|||
|
Verse 1:
November 23 1985
was the date that a
misfit boy was born.
He is not like the
other kids. He has
his own principles.
Verse 2:
11 years later it
was 1996. He suffered
trauma from the
oppression from his
classmates and his
teachers. He feels
like that he doesn't
belong in that shitty
school but he still
graduated in 2003.
Chorus 1:
These calendars days are
the indication of how that
misfit boy survived in his
tragic life. He converts
his sentiments into the
songs that he writes and
his guitar is his therapy.
Verse 3:
Few years have passed.
He is still struggling
to get by. He keeps
wondering why does
life have to be unfair.
(Repeat Chorus 1)
Verse 4:
Now it's the present day that misfit
boy managed to make new
friends. There is a lesson
that he learned. He cannot
please everyone in spite
of the good things that
he did in the past.
Chorus 2:
These calendars days are
the indication of how that
misfit boy survived in his
tragic life. He converts
his sentiments into the
songs that he writes and
his guitar is his therapy.

Nasaan ka na ngayon?
Kay bilis lumipas ng panahon.
Ikaw ay isang alaala na lang

Sa aking isipan.

haters tell you.
Where's your sense
of individuality?
It seems like you have
a fear of missing out.
What the fuck happened
to staying true?

what you've been told.
