This is the gouache version of Wawa, Angono, Rizal photo I took during lockdown days in 2020. The view was beautiful and yet I was so lonely. I knew at that time things were falling apart. The only comfort I had while I was soaking in this view was this song, Because by Aoi Teshima, playing in my Audio-technica headphones. At that time I was already just a chauffeur.

Because

someday, look back on a young day
we shared, we learned
we had we lost

because… you know
tomorrow had another plan
because we lose
the future is all we have left

one pain one hope
too far so close
we laugh, we cry
we live, we grow

because…because… we know
the future is all we have left

one day somewhere
hold on somewhere
we stand, we leap
we fall, we go

because… you know
tomorrow plays another hand
because we lose
the future is all we have left

oh, we have someday
oh, surely someday
oh, surely someday
surely someday
