Umaabot minsan ng isang oras O dalawa
Di alintana ang pagkapagod ng paa
Basta’t makapag isip-isip at mapag-isa
Habang naglalakad kahit pa sa arawan
Tulad ng dapat ko bang ituloy o tigilan?
O kung ako ba ang problema kaya mo ako iniwan?
Na ako yung dating tahanan mo
Ang dating nakakapagpangiti sa yo pero
Ikaw ay tumalikod at naglakad papalayo
Bakit pa ba ako nananatili
Na para bang ako’y nakatali
Marahil ba ako ay nagbabakasakali?
Nagsimula ako ng panibagong tahanan
Na hindi nakaasa sa kung kanino man
Kundi sa piling ko na hindi ako sasaktan
Malubak man ang aking dinaanan pero
Nagpapasalamat pa rin talaga ako
Marahil hindi ko mahahanap ang sarili ko
Kung hindi ko tinahak ang daan patungo sa’ yo
