DANILO: When I went crazy— baliw— nang nabaliw ako—
When I sank below the surface of the water—
I had visions of boys I had dated— who yelled through the waves—
PARTYGOERS: TOO BIG! TOO BIG! TOO SOON THE LOVE!
TOO FAST THE WATER! TOO BIG! TOO BIG!
[Dude slow down]
DANILO: And then they pumped me full of their waters—
PARTYGOERS: TUBIG!— TUBIG!—
DANILO: They held me down— put their hoses in my mouth—
filled me up— drowned me— told me to stop
crying— too much water— tubigboy— baliwboy—
soaked through with baliw— I drowned Jason—
I was below him— I was crazy— was crazy for him—
I was baliw— him— was crazy for loving him
my love was nothing— if crazy— if spilling over—
my crazy was too big— my crazy was water—
my love was tubig— my love was water—
[You’re acting crazy]
it would be crazy— to tell anyone— who cares—
about a schizo— who cares— for a schizo—
it would be— baliw— it would be— below him—
ALL: now get— below him— crazy boy— baliwboy—
get on with it— get on him— get him off—
then get off him— get up— get going— and stop crying—
stop crying stop crying
the tears are too big too much feeling
stop crying stop loving
too much love ugh you’re too big for this
don’t stop drowning don’t care drown
