LYRICS
I fell in love with your curly hair
Your beautiful smile
The way it shined
I love the way you laugh at my jokes
Think I’m brave when you know I won’t
Live up to her

CHORUS
Would you DIE FOR ME?
IF I SHOULD DIE
Let me die in your arms
I’m not ready to let you go
UNTIL I DIE
Waiting for you
Waiting for you
I’d die for you

You said you’d never leave me alone
Keep me safe, never let go
The only problem is
I’m being haunted
You REVENANT

(Repeat CHORUS)

Now you’re gone and I can’t find you
I’m reaching, I’m reaching
I’m falling, I’m falling, I’m falling
I’m falling, I’m falling, I’m falling
And I realize
You really died for me

(Repeat CHORUS, except for the first line)

So pretty!

If I Should Die HAIKU:

1. Champion for grabs
“Good versus Evil,
Whose side will win the Champion?
Numa or Badia?”

2. Deception
“Betrayal of trust,
Succumbed by lust of power,
Triumph of Numas?”

3. Willpower
“There’s no turning back,
Fears and deaths must be conquered,
And love’s sacrificed.”

4. Instincts
“Her time to seek comes,
Her instincts to be followed,
To save her Vincent.”

5. Advantage
“Unravel the truths,
Discover the mysteries,
Defeat the Numas.”

Jas Dela Cruz

Life and love will always blossom despite any obstacle you encounter.

My SUN… and I.

The sun, the moons, and the stars, change slowly over time;

Like me, I change and age like any other,

Yet in death’s call I go back to my original form.

Like them I will waste away slowly, depending on the life of my sun.

I should not get too attached, since suns eventually die.

It will end my existence, cast my world into darkness.

It will burst me into a million fragments, until I can slowly be brought together.

I had found the light, yet can easily lose it.

My sun is fragile, yet it ages the fastest, more quicker then I.

One day it will die, and will I.
