Sandwich Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Bakit mo pinabayaan
Unti-unting naubusan
Mga dahong nawawala
Hindi pa rin naniwala

Chorus:
Wala na tayong masilungan
Wala na tayong masilungan

Interlude:

Bakit di mo iningatan
Unti-unting nasugatan
Mga sangang naputol
Pangakong nagkabuhol-buhol

Chorus:
Wala na tayong masilungan
Wala na tayong masilungan
Wala na tayong masilungan
Wala na tayong masilungan

Bakit 'di mo pinaglaban
Mga munting alaala
Lahat tayo?'y mababasa
'Pag ang langit ay biglang lumuha
Biglang lumuha

Chorus:
Wala na tayong masilungan
Wala na tayong masilungan
Wala na tayong masilungan
Wala na tayong masilungan

Coda:




Wala na tayo...
Wala na tayo...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song Masilungan by Sandwich seem to be describing a relationship that has ended due to one person's neglect and lack of effort to protect and preserve it. The singer is asking why the other person allowed the relationship to wither away slowly, much like how leaves fall off a dying tree. The other person didn't believe that the relationship was in trouble, even as it fell apart. The chorus repeats that they no longer have a place to take shelter, hinting that the relationship was their haven.


In the second verse, the singer asks why the other person didn't protect the memories they shared, even as they slowly deteriorated. Promises were made but left unfulfilled, leading to the cutting of branches that they once relied on. Once again, the chorus emphasizes that they no longer have a shelter, a place of refuge from storms and hardships.


The final verse suggests that the singer is confused as to why the other person didn't fight for the relationship. They see their shared memories as something that everyone can read if the skies suddenly weep. This implies that the memories and the relationship did matter, but not enough to overcome the obstacles that led to its death. In the coda, the repeated phrase "wala na tayo" means "we're no longer here," signifying the end of the relationship.

Nostalgia. Pinapatugtog sa tristancafe kasabay ng ibat ibang tugtog ng ibang nasa internet cafe, habang nag dodota 1. Bahala na kahit ang gulo. Nag aalala sa bumabagsak na grades, kung magkanong pera na lang natitira, kung may pamasahe pa ba ako pauwi or maglalakad na lang, kung kelan kaya ako magkakagirlfriend. Hirap nung college life pero kahit papano, ang sarap balikan nung memories. Bliss.
