to me

And you find that in fact the world is always changing. The roads, buildings, and even the skyline. The last time i walked down the esplanade after coming back from the states, i saw new architecture, new lights and new colours. Wonder what it'll be like when i'm in Beijing. Hopefully the people that matter never change. I love it when i meet old friends i've never seen for ages, and we can still talk like nothing's ever changed, like we were still back in those days when we used to hang out so frequently, as if we never grew up and that we never left each other, be it for studies or other reasons. I will miss everybody when i'm gone, but fact is friendships are much less volatile than relationships, and I don't want to be proven wrong. As the world changes, some things in life just never change right? Like how people have Hungry Ghost festival dinners and auctions, like how the 2 frogs jump around in our garden every night, and like how the birds in the airwell come back season after season to build nests, lay eggs and teach their chicks how to fly. Different generations, but same habits. Like how ppl feel sleepy after lunch.



The buttons on my phone are worn thin
I don't think that I knew the chaos I was getting in.
But I've broken all my promises to you
I've broken all my promises to you.

Why do you do this to me?
Why do you do this so easily?
You make it hard to smile because
You make it hard to breathe
Why do you do this to me?

A phrasing that's a single tear,
Is harder than I ever feared
And you were left feeling so alone.
Because these days aren't easy
Like they have been once before
These days aren't easy anymore.

Why do you do this to me?
Why do you do this so easily?
You make it hard to smile because
You make it hard to breathe
Why do you do this to me?
To me, to me, to me.

I should have known this wasn't real
And fought it off and fought to feel
What matters most? Everything
That you feel while listening to every word that I sing.
I promise you I will bring you home
I will bring you home.

Why do you do this to me?
Why do you do this so easily?
You make it hard to smile because
You make it hard to breathe
Why do you do this to me?

Why do you do this to me?
Why do you do this so easily?
You make it hard to smile because
You make it hard to breathe
Why do you do this to me?
To me, to me, to me.
