The origins of this Life Is Trying song came from my old-school Pentium 2 Dell PC at my old office, the melody eventually came out after I handed the lyrics to Cedric Buenviaje who composed the song's basic chord progression which was later on developed by Laixander Naguit and Mark De Guzman.

We stood face to face
But I can't see you
Look the same way
As you stared down

Awkward attraction
A case of infatuation
A melodramatic feeling
Of love and affection

I can't speak the words
That I long to say to you
My mind always splits in two
Everytime I look at you

Maybe this is love
Or am I just strung out
With a chlidlkie respones
To the nearness of you

You look so beautiful
And I look stupid
With my stupid hair
And my rundown clothes

Side-winded love songs
And basement poetry
Are all I can give
In thought and in theory

I can't speak the words
That I long to say to you
My mind always splits in two
Everytime I look at you

Maybe this is love
Or am I just strung out
With a chlidlkie respones
To the nearness of you
