FRANK SINATRA: "Moon River"

Even the winds lack the courage to howl at the skies. I stare into the distance, out of sync, out of focus. The city sleeps at my feet, and I sleep with it.

MILEY CYRUS: "From The Very Start"

The swishing of your hands
Balms my bruised thoughts
Scarless are the lands
Far the ghosts I fought
Take one little step to love
And love takes a hundred steps to you
For the distance to the heart
Is measured from the very start

LADY & BIRD: "Blue Skies"

I must look like a grazing cow, my face only ten centimetres away from the grass in this lush hotel garden. It’s early morning, and there’s not much human cattle around, let alone other mammals performing arm balance poses like me in the chilly zephyr that rolls over Manila Bay. I smell the green, where my nostrils inhaled the salty blue of waves just now. The ladybird that strolls over my mat does not even bother to look up as I gaze at him, as if it were a tall slender princess parading along Sunset Boulevard. My morning mind is an unspoilt beach, pleasantly pristine before the noisy crowds will flock to its warm sandy skin. In silent sincerity, we talk to ourselves. We can talk many words, but only the true ones will be remembered. A breeze caresses my hair, but goes unnoticed.

QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE: "Quick And To The Pointless"

In forgiving closeness
We fondle our memories
And cuddle fun-filled pillows
Of undefined horizons
Time points to pointlessness
As we escape from it -
Flying fishes through the net
