BINI “Strings” Lyrics + English Translation

[Intro: Mikha, Jhoanna, Colet, Maloi & Jhoanna]
So delicate (Teka ‘wag muna baka mabasag)
So delicate (Wait, not yet, it might break)
These feelings for you
These feelings for you
(Hey) ‘Wag munang magulo (Nag-uumpisa pa lamang)
(Hey) Don’t mess things up just yet (It’s only beginning)
(Hey) Nakikinig ba kayo?
(Hey) Are you even listening?
You know you got to listen
You know you got to listen

[Verse 1: Stacey, Gwen]
Sinabi na dating ginusto ko ‘to
I once said this is what I wanted
Pero bakit nangyari lahat ng ito?
But why did all of this happen?
Nagmamadali, nagkakandarapa
Rushing in, stumbling hard
Kita mong pabagsak na sa lupa
You can see I’m about to hit the ground
Pwede ba muna tayo pumara?
Can we pause here for a while?
Parang ‘di ko na ito kaya
Feels like I can’t handle this anymore

[Pre-Chorus: Maloi, All]
Scared to admit but I’m broken
Scared to admit but I’m broken
In need to fix this fire
In need to fix this fire
Balancing on this tight rope
Balancing on this tight rope
About to fall from the sky (Yah, yah, yah, yah)
About to fall from the sky (Yah, yah, yah, yah)

[Chorus: Sheena, Colet, Sheena & Colet, (All)]
I’m on strings, don’t cut me off (Yah, yah, yah)
I’m on strings, don’t cut me off (Yah, yah, yah)
No wings, don’t let me fall off this now (Yah, yah, yah)
No wings, don’t let me fall off this now (Yah, yah, yah)
I’m on strings, just hanging on
I’m on strings, just hanging on
Gotta, gotta wake up, wake up, get higher (Yah, yah, yah)
Gotta, gotta wake up, wake up, get higher (Yah, yah, yah)

[Post-Chorus: Aiah]
I’m really, really trying, but sometimes
I’m really, really trying, but sometimes
I ain’t strong inside, can’t lie
I ain’t strong inside, can’t lie

[Verse 2: Sheena, Mikha, Aiah]
Minsan kailangan ko ring aminin
Sometimes I also need to admit
‘Pag nahihirapan, dapat sabihin
When it’s hard, I should say it
Kaya tara, tara zoom, binibini, bloom
So let’s go, let’s zoom, lady, bloom
Pero, pero take a break, baby, if you feel doomed
But, but take a break, baby, if you feel doomed
So love yourself first, before this all hurts
So love yourself first, before this all hurts
Untie all the knots, believe and you’ll make it
Untie all the knots, believe and you’ll make it

[Pre-Chorus: Jhoanna, All]
Scared to admit but I’m broken
Scared to admit but I’m broken
In need to fix this fire
In need to fix this fire
Balancing on this tight rope
Balancing on this tight rope
About to fall from the sky (Yah, yah, yah, yah)
About to fall from the sky (Yah, yah, yah, yah)

[Chorus: Gwen, Stacey, Gwen & Stacey, (All)]
I’m on strings, don’t cut me off (Yah, yah, yah)

No wings, don’t let me fall off this now (Yah, yah, yah)
No wings, don’t let me fall off this now (Yah, yah, yah)
I’m on strings, just hanging on
I’m on strings, just hanging on
Gotta, gotta wake up, wake up, get higher (Yah, yah, yah)
Gotta, gotta wake up, wake up, get higher (Yah, yah, yah)

[Bridge: Jhoanna, Colet]
Sana naman marinig mo ito
I hope you hear this
Nahihirapan, naghihingalo
Struggling, gasping for air
Alam kong kaya pero
I know I can do it but
Pwede ba munang huminto dito?
Can I please stop right here for now?
