life like a road

long winding roads
lights flashing in my eyes
going nowhere
journey keeps me high

your seat is empty
i drive and i drive
am all alone
baby i miss you tonight

i remember those times
it was you, it was i
we travelled alone
baby, we were fine

you moved away
left me behind
yes you are there
but not there in my life

life is like a road
its long, unknown
i miss you on the road
as i miss you in my life

tonight is just another night

life on a road...

driving through the night on a long winding road

heading to the unknown, a car crash or a toll

living through the days finishing work, daily chores

know not whats ahead, a heart attack or a stroke



some tire, some burn out, some enjoy the ride

a flat tyre, a hit bike, some live on the roadside

some are sad, some depressed, some stay happy in lives

a missed promotion, a break-up, some smile in vile

born again...

an old song, a letter too long
first crush, bad luck around her
a girl i loved, vodka messed it up
my memories, nothing seems pretty

friends i made, only few remained
places i lived, i dont revisit
people i miss, girls i kissed
things i stole, how i got old

seems a different life
have kids and a wife
can i trade this
for the life i could never live

is there still time
to make ammends
to start from the line

can i run away
live another life
born again

angels fly

i lie in bed and watch the world go by
try to find my place, i begin to fly
dream i dream i dream, and i build a world
only for the sun to rise and make it dry

sipping on to the morning tea, i wish i didn't
enter the world of money and comitting crime
driving to the place of shoes and of ties
to sell my soul for gold and to provide

wonder what difference would be made to this place
had i chosen to say good-bye
a 100 me would have already replaced me
gotten into my shoes, gotten into my ties

wonder why the man takes baby-steps
covers only some digits in a lifetime
wonder why we choose to crawl for some cash
and not learn from the angels who scale the skies

why dont we travel and find ourselves a happy home
far from race, from blood, far from border-line
home where i can watch you smile and watch the skies
learn from the angels, and fly like the angels fly

dead or alive

my feet are numb, yet am standing
my knees hurt, cant slow down
should sit in a corner, yet am running
everyone's laughing, am a burning clown

gods from the sky, pushing me to hell
the bosses and friends, wont bow down
am stuck in between, i hear the bell
that tolls far away, in a temple i never set foot on

i sleep 12 hours, don't dream don't frown
lay like a corpse, no one to wake me around
living two lives, one dead one alive
the latter counts the sins, the former pays the price

heartbreak again... (not mine)

Myth has it, rains are omen; Gods are happy when the sun shines

Personally I feel otherwise, I smile when droplets fall on a pine

Its been a crappy week so far, the clouds hovered when I walked out

It couldn't stay that way for longer, the sun emerged when my toes touched the ground



What started good for me, was spoilt by the God of light

In turn, my friend's heart-break; I know will give him a new flight

He may not realize now, it may take him years

to understand games that gods play, and why they give us tears


come out come out a stronger you, come out come out a winner

if you don't comply with the rules of the game, they may take you for a sinner

mankind survived a million years, with a billion heartbreaks every year

this will become a number for you, one day the killed will become the killer

heart hurts...

sipping onto the rum, sipping onto coke
sitting in a friends' slum, working still am broke
listening to clock ticking by, losing my soul
missing my sweet heart, whose away travelling with her blokes

cant open my heart, cant tell her my feelings
dont want her to think, that i think shes cheating
i love her loads, i know she loves me too
right now shes away, hate to see her pics with someone new

they maybe her old pals, they maybe her new
all pictured as bikers, havent seen her wit dudes
she should be with me, yet shes away
am drowning in whiskey, shes making hay

this love brings pain, almost everyday
i kept her in heart, still she moved away
revenge i suppose, for being late
she waited for hours, am waiting for days

i can be real, face the reality
not my heart, it faces casulty
my body can take pain, over and over again
what about my heart, its still new in the game
