The Dark Passenger

Why is it so hard to be yourself,
What is it so dark you want to hide,
A lie is always easier to tell,
But how long will this mask suffice.

Your secret ways to get back at life,
That secret place behind those eyes.
We all feel that urge
The darkness inside, wants to flee.
Some pretend they didn't do it,
Others pretend they didn't see.

From our head to toe, we look different though   
We all share the same load,
Our desires walk the same road,
Our fears and fantasies walk hand in hand,
then why do we hide, I don't understand.

The struggle between black and white,
The darkness and the light.
You don't have to pick a side,
But carefully choose your fight.

 

No one's all Jekyll; no one's all Hyde
The dark passenger walks beside.

Remember You?

Standing at the window 

Talking to the rain

Share a joke or two

Live those years again

When you did not have to pretend

When the people you knew were few

With them you were you

With them you were true

Now in an ocean of faces,

Your heart you defend

Lies beneath the numb conscience sprout

a soul forgotten, parched without 

Ask yourself next time you fall 

do you remember you at all?

Life got me thinking

Life got me thinking
who was I, who am I
what have I become?
is there any way I can go back
to give voice to the words
that I’ve been drinking
to feel the feeling that once hurt
Life got me thinking

I don’t say what I feel
or I don’t feel any more
is it the silence that I need
or is it the noise taking toll
yes I listen when you speak
but then wonder if I care
maybe it’s just my heart shrinking
Life got me thinking

Can eyes lie? Can feelings die?
Can love be undone?
Is there a way to look into the future
to warn the ballad singing bird
of the hunter that’ll be hunting
to know if it’s going to be worth
in these thoughts I keep sinking
Life got me thinking...

Rusty Strings

some chords have said their last goodbye
to the rusty strings of my guitar
the broken clock's no alibi
words unspoken left a scar

the world's spinning round
but I feel its going down
they kill they lie
they hurt their own
love will not die
but it is dethroned

every meaning has changed and words have new names
self respect had its days, now its all about fame
what was bad is now cool, being good is now lame

you know that your conscience
crashed into the ground
you long for public approval
drowning out the inner sound

giving in to the temptations
in the name of 'just trying'
you do things outta frustration
to yourself you are lying

I don't mind if you call me a loner
because I understand
I like the power walking sober
when you cant even stand

you think of money, you stink of lust
your feelings faded, your heart jaded
now you search for your soul
that denuded with disgust

Not all that goes up has to descend
I'm just an observer, observing the trend

but some chords have said their last goodbye
to the rusty strings of my guitar
He still watches from above the sky
whatever we do, whoever we are...

Bitter Sweet Symphony

Walking down the lanes of my past

I heard voices calling my name
going round the memories so vast

I heard noises regretting in flame

Some sounds I couldn't hear

Some sounds I couldn't bear
Reminiscences of my life
Peeling layer after layer

The echo of our ego                 
gets trapped inside the heart
The voices wont go
as guilt tears it apart

Sigh of the pain,whispers of fear
Cry of the tears,never easy to hear

When down comes the rain in this lonely terrain
I miss the sounds of the friends once around

I knew you were plucking the strings
but I didn't know what tune was it
It's hard to express the joy it brings
when the candle of those moments are lit

the things I lied about    
the things I didn't tell
I had my reasons throughout
but was I supposed to compel

There was so much noise around
I couldn't hear my voice myself

We keep fighting with the crowd
But lose the battle with ourselves

To keep smiling in pain is not an easy art
you cant say a word
when you know it's all falling apart
but I wish someone had heard
the screams of a muted heart

As the time slipped away
the shadows grew longer

I was into the array
and the noises grew louder

It's like being on the road but having lost the way
but I did walk it through as I would do today

because the book of my past I'd now put aside

And I'm writing my future with a brand new vibe
The opus of life is not always bright

It's a bitter sweet symphony you gotta play it right!

Undesignated

I'm far from the shore
not surfing anymore
reels of time do have some memories old
feels like a stone out in the winters cold


What I feel is never designated
Why's everything so Complicated
The sun comes and goes, even the moonlight fades away
My heart beat slows and my soul begins to sway

The pouring rain is a season again
you cant complain,it will be in vain
I don't wanna lie but I cant tell you the truth
so I'll keep it inside as long as I could

What i feel is never designated
That's why it's so complicated
When everything seems to be falling apart
The distance grows but its pseudo to the heart

I'm far from the shore
not surfing anymore
reels of time do have some memories old
feels like a stone out in the winters cold

The Rain

I'm looking at a rainy day

wondering what it has to say

I looked up and closed my eyes

It washed away my tears

I stretched my arms and hugged the sky

It drove away my fears



clouds roar as if they have something to declare

but I keep walking like a just don't care

with the beat of the raindrops I'm singing my song

this tune and the breeze takes me to where I belong

somethings I still miss that got left on the way

but I'm getting to know what this rain has to say



to be continued...

One Life

In just one life we live so many
trying to set things right
trying to touch as many

with just one smile we can cheer up so many
in the darkest of nights
we can light up so many

yes we all have a story
but not everybody has time
like we all have got words
but they don't always rhyme

yes we get tired of running
seeking a simple way
but if we know what's coming
for what will we pray

one moment we think we have it all
it can't get better but then we fall
day turns to night night turns to day
but we keep it inside what we wanted to say

in just one day it turns all around
someone close as your shadow
is not to be found

still in just one life we live so many
trying to set things right
trying to touch as many
