[Verse 1]
I'm caught up in 1999
It's nothing new
Still stuck on you
I, if I could travel back in time
To just see you
You know I'll do

[Pre-Chorus]
Bakit ba gusto agawin ang malay?
Pati na rin sayang tinataglay
Kung pwede iligtas lang ang isang musmos labi

[Chorus]
Kinakagat ang dila hanggang mawala
Ang sakit na dulot ng realidad
And I know, I'll never heal
'Cause this world wants to love me
And I can't change that
Kinakagat ang dila hanggang mawala
Ang sakit na dulot ng realidad
And I know, I'll never heal
'Cause this world wants to love me
And I can't change that

[Verse 2]
I tried to fight it every night
Bulong sa isip, 'di mawala
Couldn't get someone
To help me where am I
So I had to stay away
[Pre-Chorus]
Bakit ba gusto agawin ang malay?
Pati na rin sayang tinataglay
Kung pwede iligtas lang ang isang musmos labi

[Chorus]
Kinakagat ang dila hanggang mawala
Ang sakit na dulot ng realidad
And I know, I'll never heal
'Cause this world wants to love me
And I can't change that
Kinakagat ang dila hanggang mawala
Ang sakit na dulot ng realidad
And I know, I'll never heal
'Cause this world wants to love me
And I can't change that

[Bridge]
I wanna know, wanna know if you're listening
I wanna know if you're happy hating
I wanna know, wanna know if you're listening
Even if I can't change that

[Chorus]
Kinakagat ang dila hanggang mawala
Ang sakit na dulot ng realidad
And I know, I'll never heal
'Cause this world wants to love me
And I can't change that
Kinakagat ang dila hanggang mawala
Ang sakit na dulot ng realidad
And I know, I'll never heal
'Cause this world wants to love me
And I can't change that
[Outro]
I wanna know, wanna know if you're listening
I wanna know if you're happy hating
I wanna know, wanna know
This world wants to love me
And I can't change that
