The nights are long beneath a sky without you
The ocean screams between your steps and mine
My heart beats hard like a war drum
Living in exile, prisoner of this land
I carve your name in iron and fire
Every mile makes me more dangerous
Distance bites, but it won’t kill hope
Your face keeps burning in the dark
I clench my fists, I stand my ground
Even alone, I walk toward us
SHERA!
Your name is screaming through my veins
SHERA!
Even hell knows your rage
SHERA!
Across the seas and the storms
I will return, I swear to you
Manila sleeps, I’m still awake
Your absence is my battlefield
But your love is a heavy weapon
That keeps me from falling, from going deaf
They say “forget”, they say “move on”
They don’t know this kind of violence
To love from far, to love this hard
Is surviving every sunrise
If the world collapses between us
I’ll dig through the earth with bare hands
Even broken, even on my knees
I’ll reach you, no matter the cost
SHERA!
Carved in my soul, burning bright
SHERA!
My light in the middle of the sky
SHERA!
Distance or damnation
You are my only religion
When the planes tear through the sky
When my feet touch your land
That day, silence will fall
And I will never be far from you again
