A Losing Fight / The Inner Evil.

They all say there's good in me,
Its the demons inside they fail to see.

I'm afraid they'll all get out,
But its all the things I cant live without.

Someday they'll all be free,
I don't know then, what will be left of me.

I mere shadow a living shell,
I drown slowly in my inner hell.

So as I'm dying alone,
I keep you safe from the inner me,
As I hang on they have grown,
Someday the demons is all you'll see.

I keep losing this inner fight,
I stand tall as I cower in fright.

They tell me that I'm winning,
But all I wanna do is keep running.

The inner fight is what I cant escape,
What is now broken I cannot remake.

Everything fades, I'm down on my knee,
The inner evil is finally free.

So as I'm dying alone,
I keep you safe from the inner me,
As I hang on they have grown,
Someday the demons is all you'll see.

I keep hoping that you stand by side,
I just wait for the turning of the tide.

I hope and pray that I may be wrong,
But they've been in me all along.

So as I'm dying alone,
I keep you safe from the inner me,
As I hang on they have grown,
Someday the demons is all you'll see.



I'm currently unable to convincingly name this song. I hold it very close to my heart since at a number of levels it explains the manifestation of my greatest fears. This song is essentially an explanation of my state of mind, my inner psychosis.

If anyone can help me name this, I'm open to suggestions.


P.S.> This song marks a landmark 10th original song written by me. Now if only someone would help me make these into proper music, then I can proudly say I have enough songs for a decent length album.

Walking Alone.

When I first came, to this forest,
My anger was my pain.

As I went on, to a good rest,
My anger was to wane.

I grew heavy, and my bindings,
They pulled down to sleep.

As I went on, all my findings,
They kept me on my feet.

(Let me go)
I cant find rest or my mind,
(Let me go)
There so much still to find.
(Leave me be)
I cant turn back, must move ahead,
(I rush in)
Where you fear to tread.

And this world was, full of people,
But no one lends a hand,

I search for, and I'm so feeble,
Cant find my feet to stand.

I can see the clearing ahead,
As I move on through the trees.

I reach there, to rest my head,
Rest my soul in the cool breeze.

(Let me go)
I cant find rest or my mind,
(Let me go)
There so much still to find.
(Leave me be)
I cant turn back, must move ahead,
(I rush in)
Where you fear to tread.

I found freedom in this last mile,
Finally my soul is free.
My face breaks in a large smile,
I can sleep now, let me be.

(Let me go)
I cant find rest or my mind,
(Let me go)
There so much still to find.
(Leave me be)
I cant turn back, must move ahead,
(I rush in)
Where you fear to tread.



Edit: This song is basically about the journey of life. Actually taking the journey alone, and somehow finishing it and the sense of freedom and relief you feel once you come out of a dark forest into open air, after walking all alone on that path.

This just in: The song fits the beat of Out of Exile by Audioslave. Just need to add one beat at the second stanza. (In the brackets during the chorus is sung by back-up vocals)

El Diablo.

The devil he smiles with an angel's face,
He tries to bring me down with all his grace.

I think its just a matter of love and hate,
Not a matter of race or faith.

I'm on my way I'm headed down,
Down there I'll wear a golden crown.

The devil he awaits my cruel end,
I might just break before I bend.

Hell is just a new start, a new beginning,
There's just no point in running,
I'm headed there with a crazy grin,
In the end, Death will win.

Every day I await my call,
Wait for the day I finally fall.

Longing for freedom from these binds,
A way to escape these saner minds.

My only hope is in cold death,
I keep waiting for my final breath.

I think about it and say it loud,
Longing to get away from this lonely crowd.

Hell is just a new start, a new beginning,
There's just no point in running,
I'm headed there with a crazy grin,
In the end, Death will win.

My final deliverance is not in faith,
It's not in love and neither in hate,
It's in knowing the truth and making peace,
Losing my body, keeping my soul in piece.

Hell is just a new start, a new beginning,
There's just no point in running,
I'm headed there with a crazy grin,
In the end, Death will win.



Edit: A dark, dark, dark song. A number of people would not like it coz of the message it conveys. Of anti-religion and the freedom of death, from the bonds of mortality. Its an amazing concept and I hope to write more about it later so as to partly explain this song as well.

Time.

I saw you there
In disrepair,
So blissful,
Yet so unaware,
I cant help but wonder,
Are you really there.

I try to see,
What you can see,
And deep down,
I wish to be,
Everything we needed,
And could never be.

Time has a way to fill up all my pain,
Time is all my loss and all my gain,
Time makes me think about, the love we had,
Time calls the good things, and all the bad.

I think about it every day and night,
I try to fight it with all my might,
Think about that time we shared,
Didn't think if anyone cared,

My what a good way, and good memories,
I keep remembering all our, little stories,
Oh, what would I do, just to hold you now,
I keep thinking, what, where, when and how.

Time has a way to fill up all my pain,
Time is my every loss and all my gain,
Time makes me think about, the love we had,
Time calls the good things, and all the bad.

All I wish for see is you again,
All I want is to take, all your pain,
I feel sorry for all the things I said,
For all my mistakes I think I've paid.

I'll find a way to make all this right,
I wont lose you, not without a fight,
Lost you once and I felt the pain,
Everyday I grow a little insane.

Time has a way to fill up all my pain,
Time is all my loss and all my gain,
Time makes me think about, the love we had,
Time calls the good things, and all the bad.


Edit: This is one LONG song. Its about how time is one of the best healers, and all the different stages in a relationship from the start to the bitter end, and all the memories linked with it which somehow time helps forget.

Chaos.

At the end of the earth,
The silence after the storm,
I wish to have another birth,
So I can make my own form.

Building life from its dying scratch,
Making it worth another life
Bringing out another batch,
Hoping this one steers clear of strife.

(We need chaos)
Somewhere just to lose our head
(We need chaos)
Someplace we can run and hide.
(We need chaos)
After everyone is dead.
(We need chaos)
Just sit back, enjoy the ride.

All we need is the ultimate end,
Someway to start it all again,
Somehow to make us all amend,
To payback all the quiet pain.

Everything we've said and done,
All the mess upon our plate,
All the wars we've lost and won,
We need to start with a clean slate.

(We need chaos)
Somewhere just to lose our head
(We need chaos)
Someplace we can run and hide.
(We need chaos)
After everyone is dead.
(We need chaos)
Just sit back, enjoy the ride.

The only way is to start anew,
To stop our foolishness, restart,
The way the first flower grew,
Until it was torn apart.

(We need chaos)
Somewhere just to lose our head
(We need chaos)
Someplace we can run and hide.
(We need chaos)
After everyone is dead.
(We need chaos)
Just sit back, enjoy the ride.




This is a very dark song even for me. Never expected myself to be able to put this out in lyrics, but I can almost imagine someone screeching this out on stage with heavy distortion sounds.

The Last Regret.

You are my love, you are my sin,
You are everything I had always been.

I cant help but wonder what went wrong,
I keep dying, you move along.

I keep my love inside this cage,
I build it up, this new visage.

The feeling people will never know,
How is it so easy, just to let go.

You kept me anchored to my sanity,
You are my whirlpool, my gravity.
Now you are gone and I have nothing left,
Nothing except my last regret.

I look back on the things I'd done,
I had always lost when I thought I'd won.

I won the small battles, but I lost this war,
I turned around to look, now you've gone to far.

These crazy thoughts spinning in my head,
All the things I wish I'd never said.

You kept me anchored to my sanity,
You are my whirlpool, my gravity.
Now you are gone and I have nothing left,
Nothing except my last regret.

You said you'd never leave,
Now I'm all alone.
I cant believe I hurt you so,
You held me tight, but i let go.

You kept me anchored to my sanity,
You are my whirlpool, my gravity.
Now you are gone and I have nothing left,
Nothing except my last regret.

I see the end, that finish line,
I'm hanging on to a lonely thread,
I'm happy that once you were mine,
But deep inside I wish to be dead.

You kept me anchored to my sanity,
You are my whirlpool, my gravity.
Now you are gone and I have nothing left,
Nothing except my last regret.



Edit: A song of things gone sour, and all the mistakes which one wishes one had never made in a relationship. How everyone leaves a relationship with a certain feeling of regret which gives rise to the question of "what if?". Its about the sense of loss and the feeling of futility when we try to think of the things that went wrong and how its all still fixable.

Its over, get over it.

Spiral away from Sanity.

Everybody wants a complete solution,
But no one wants to get in the competition.
They all have their sanity to lose,
And still everyone's afraid to choose.

We give our arguments and defend,
But the truth seems to prevail.
The goodness in us has died long ago,
It's the better things in life, no one will let go.

Just to survive we require only one ability,
We have to spiral away from our sanity.

And it all seems, idiotic.
As the world grows chaotic.
Everyone is a little parasitic.
Keeping the world in constant static.


It's so hard to resist the sweet seduction,
When all we think about is reproduction.
We base our views on the way other's think,
Yet its our own intelligence that seems to shrink.

The sheer thought of helping those in need,
We shy away from doing that single good deed.
We try to beat the odds in each bet,
But what we see is never what we get.


Just to survive we require only one ability,
We have to spiral away from our sanity.

And it all seems, idiotic.
As the world grows chaotic.
Everyone is a little parasitic.
Keeping the world in constant static.

Insanity is our last recluse,
Creativity is the only excuse.
To scream our view and express everything.
Show your face but reveal nothing.

Just to survive we require only one ability,
We have to spiral away from our sanity.

And it all seems, idiotic.
As the world grows chaotic.
Everyone is a little parasitic.
Keeping the world in constant static.

I Spiral away from my Sanity.


Edit: This song is sort of true. It represents the current world situation, and offers a clear solution as to how to survive in this world. The stanza's are quite lengthy while singing but that just makes this a longer song. The message in this is quite important and I especially like the chorus and the way it comes together.

Heart's Lament.

Goddamn this rainy road,
This lazy afternoon.
I'm drowning in this silence,
Someone save me please.

These feelings of regret,
This one last Cigarette.
I try to smoke away the pain,
I try to keep myself sane.

Oh maybe, maybe,
you could save me this day.
You could try, you could try,
and I would hope that you'd stay.

I am all alone, in my lonely heart,
I could take a chance, but I just cant start,
I can see the end, but it seems too far away.
Everything I try, seems to go the other way.

As I sit here, with all the people I've known,
I stand in this crowd, but I'm still alone,
I seem to have lost myself, in all this mess.
I can't hear my own voice in loneliness.

I see you in the crowd,
Wish I could sing aloud.
And I hope and pray,
That you would look my way.

Oh maybe, maybe,
you could save me this day.
You could try, you could try,
and I would hope that you'd stay.

I am all alone, in my lonely heart,
I could take a chance, but I just cant start,
I can see the end, but it seems too far away.
Everything I try, seems to go the other way.

Maybe, someday you will see,
Everything you mean to me,
By then I'm afraid it will be to late.
I resign myself to my cruel fate.

I am all alone, in my lonely heart,
I could take a chance, but I just cant start,
I can see the end, but it seems too far away.
Everything I try, seems to go the other way.



Edit: I was surprised with what came out when I wrote this song. I was just gonna write a lazy, slow random track and it became a heartbroken ballad. But I still like how it got together, and how it expresses a hopeless romantic and an unrequited love(definitely not me).

Learning to Fly.

Everyday I wake and I get to see.
The world is in my face, pressing down on me.
All the people in my way,
All the things that they say.
They keep pushing me down,
I need to get away.

I gotta find a new road, to get out of here,
I'm gonna sail away, overcome my fear.

And nothing can stop me now.

I've got my wings, and I'm learning to Fly,
I may fall down, but I'm still gonna try,
I'm reaching out, for the bright blue sky,
I've found new winds, and I'm learning to Fly.

The people keep changing, yet I stay the same,
The rules may change, but its still the same game.
Everyone wants to win, they keep going on,
Yet even as I lose, I try to stay strong.

Every time that I fall,
I learn to stand up again,
I have my own way to go,
Can't keep playing this game.

And nothing can stop me now.

I've got my wings, and I'm learning to Fly,
I may fall down, but I'm still gonna try,
I'm reaching out, for the bright blue sky,
I've found new winds, and I'm learning to Fly.

Silhouettes, small deeds.
Everything. That must answer to their needs.
Silly thoughts, false dreams.
All thats true, is as weak as glass beads.

Keep going on, as the wind stays strong.
And nothing can stop me now.

I've got my wings, and I'm learning to Fly,
I may fall down, but I'm still gonna try,
I'm reaching out, for the bright blue sky,
I've found new winds, and I'm learning to Fly.



Edit: Oh, I love this song. Its what I wish I could do everyday, just freaking fly away from the chaos of everyday life, and the irritating presence of another human being. The problems of the human race are inescapable and I wish I had wings at times to just get a moment by myself. This song expresses that, its one of those frustrated-at-the-world-and-every-living-thing-in-it moments, and those bore fruit to this song.

Life, the World and Stupidity.

Why does everyone have to change the world? Whats so wrong with it in the first place that every now and then some other idiot sets out on a quest to "heal" or "bring hope" to it?

I think people just need to sit down and take a look at the world in a more optimistic point of view. I'm not claiming that I'm an optimist, I'm anything but. But what i see these days is a number of people just complaining about their problems of the world and trying to either find something to blame or crib at. Those with better resources set out to change it. Don't try to fix it, if it ain't broke in the first place.

No one ever takes a moment to consider that all thats happening is happening in a continuity which no-matter what we cannot influence. There's a certain rhythm to everything so that it all falls into place. We doing something or for that matter anything is not going to change the course of things. It's akin to trying to build a dam with a bundle of rocks in the middle of the Nile. Its as futile as it is stupid.

I for one am a firm believer in just sitting back and enjoying the ride. Enjoy whatever is happening, its all gonna fall into place somehow. So what if i don't die a billionaire? So what if everyone i know will be disappointed? Big shit. The effect that one person can have on 5.999999billion others is NOTHING, that is unless i can declare war on some country and bring that number down to 4 billion. A few million of us lesser and we'll be better off. I say kill all the politicians, agreed it wont affect the population in a big way, but just watch the intellectuality quotient go through the roof.

Now some other person reading this thought of mine will have another thought going through his head. What a defeatist attitude... (says reader) if we all thought that way, the world will never be a better place. Listen up crackhead, (retorts me) the world doesn't need to be a better place, if you'd just stop thinking of doom and death and opened your eye's to see the million things going right for a normal person in the course of a day you'd love this world. This whole pessimism brainwash is due to the sensationalisation of news. Look how happy we were before Mass Media decided to kill our happiness. All we see now is a headcount on the number of deaths and rapes and whatnots in the world, we've become so paranoid that whenever we see a rose we worry more about the thorns than the beauty of the flower.

Is this what life was supposed to be reduced to? Constantly looking over our shoulders in fear of death or bodily harm? There's an amusing irony in this, on one hand constantly fearing Death, and on the other constantly complaining about Life and how boring and monotonous it has become. Life and Death is an either-or choice, either love your life as you have it and work to improve your own life without trying to change the world, or just quit the world as a whole and overcome your fear of Death.

Its high time we all appreciated this World and all its charms, beauties and opportunities. Every bad thing is just a passing thought, get over it. Life doesn't "suck", all you need is a better outlook. Somehow the value of Life got lost in this mess of modernization, we all need to realize this. The World and Life as a whole needs a new P.R. Rep, bad publicity is all it gets these days.

Miss Impossible (by POTF)

Poets of the Fall: Miss Impossible:


She can see about four satellites every minute of the hour
And find a four leaf clover where you never saw a flower
She's habitually paradoxical, a parallel perpendicular

Barefoot in nightgowns, that's how she dances in the rain
Sundown to sundown, like she was washing 'way her pain

As she is beautiful, she's unpredictable
Damned irresistible, is it plausible to hate her
She is my common sense, revels on decadence
But what's the difference, it's impossible to bait her

She can really be a handful like the brownies that she bakes you
It can be a tad hysterical, but never quite the breakthrough
She's some kind of an epitome, the sea of intranquility

In flimsy nightgowns, barefoot she dances in the rain
Sundown to sundown, like she was washing 'way her pain

As she is beautiful, she's unpredictable
Damned irresistible, is it plausible to hate her
She is my common sense, revels on decadence
But what's the difference, it's an impossible debate

Epiphany

Sung to the Tune of : Like a Stone by Audioslave.

On a back page, in the book of life
I went to find out about the end.

I had to know where, my life went wrong,
I had to find where the end began.

Instantly, I came to see
My whole life full of regrets.

In this life, I would always be,
One who all will soon forget.

In my life, I had to change,
Everything I'd always been.
Had to be someone, that all could see.
Had to be myself, finally.

And all along, I had known,
This feeling I would die alone.

But to see it, in front of me,
I came to wish it would never be.

And from this time, I would try,
To be the one I was meant to be.

I had to do, what i need to,
To bring my life on the tracks again,

In my life, I had to change,
Everything I'd always been.
Had to be someone, that all could see.
Had to be myself, finally, finally.

And an Angel, will come to me soon,
She will lead me on,
Make sure I don't live alone.
She will find out a way, to keep me sane,
Stand along with me, In this emptiness.

In my life, I had to change,
Everything I'd always been.
Had to be someone, that all could see.
Had to be myself, finally, finally.


Edit: P.S.> I hold this song very close to my heart. It is my first ever original song, and it pretty much reflects my whole life and my transformation and changes. People who've known me in both times will understand this song very well.

And thanks to my friends for making this into a proper song, hope it turns out well.

God and Religion are not connected!!

I find the whole business of religion profoundly interesting. But it does mystify me that otherwise intelligent people take it seriously. Don't confuse yourselves, its not that I don't believe in God, I believe in my perception of Him and trust my conscience in any case. Its just that Religion is not what its made out to be. I'm spiritual, not religious. Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too?

Lets get right down to the point. Religion is the biggest most commonplace con ever created by man. No matter what we say, what we think or what we are trained to believe, the simple truth out there is that Religion is a man made Tool. It was created with the sole purpose of crowd control.

How is Religion the best method for crowd control? Think about it from a basic point of view, as an outsider just observing a phenomenon and idea without a biased or predetermined opinion. When people are generally thinking along the same line, i.e. when their thoughts are aligned on the same track, they are more amicable. When some person comes face to face with people who have the same train of thought they are more likely to listen to that person. As opposed to facing off with a person of a differing opinion.

Somewhere down the History timeline, some incredibly intelligent person must of thought of an amazing technique to get people to think on one similar thought. This thought later progressed into a belief. This belief was finally documented and glamourised into Religion. The Religion we know today is nothing more than a work of fiction created to bring people together and keep them under control and on a tight leash. What better way to bring people together and keep them controlled under one singular banner than to put the fear of God in them? Its religion that made God a person(entity) to fear.

Apart from making up rules for people to live and die by, religion created something that people at that time would look up to. Religion and God was a pure thing until some people, in the now Catholic Church, realised that by personifying God and saying his Son walked on Earth alongwith us mortals so as to "enlighten" us to the ways of the divine One, they could get people to follow strict guidelines. Before this God was a supreme being, an entity in the heaven which never communicated with us directly but chose the means of natural signs and Oracles. The Greeks and Romans worshiped the Gods in their true form. As celestial objects not for us mortals to understand or fathom. They believed that when the time was right all would become clear. History and time would take its course and God would explain all things. This was a time when Science and Religion had a chance to survive side-by-side.

Until Jesus came along, all was well and good, and headed on the right path. Now don't get me wrong here, im not an Anti-Christ or a Heretic of any sort, I just believe that the truth should be put out there for all to see. The idea that ONE person was chosen out of a possible 2 Billion other humans to enlighten the most part of the world which was discovered at that time is simply preposterous. Now remember this is a time when people BELIEVED the world was flat, and that if lightning struck then it was Zues and his impeccable aim. Don't you think that if God actually did communicate with a person, and actually had a problem with science, he would clear everyone's minds by pointing out the world was actually round and lighting was a simple electrical phenomenon. Why would he go about and tell people not to fornicate or want money?

If the 10 Commandments were actually written on stone by God himself, why dint he include one in there to specify cannibalism and holy war? Was the stone to small or did He lack foresight?

The problem we see these days is different religions at loggerheads. Islam declaring war on Christianity in reply to Christianity trying to wipe out Islam from Jerusalem(remember the Crusades?). We see Hindu's and Muslims trying to kill each other while the Chinese are happy with worshiping nature and its forces. The reason we see this is because all these Religions were never meant to mix.

All Religions and God-followers were relatively local phenomenon until trans-continental traveling was discovered. Thats when all the problems began, with all the missionaries and expeditions to convert people to their religion. Let me quote myself here: I don’t like the idea of missionaries. In fact the whole business fills me with fear and alarm. I don’t believe in God, or at least not in the one we’ve invented for ourselves to fulfil our peculiar needs, and certainly not in the ones they’ve invented in America who supply their servants with toupees, television stations and, most importantly, toll-free telephone numbers. I wish that people who did believe in such things would keep them to themselves and not export them to the developing world. Something in the selling of religion is inherently disturbing. The fact that some person would go door-do-door selling a belief(i wont call it a faith, since that would be patronizing a non-existent entity) which he/she has either a. willingly accepted, b. has been told by parent/guardian/educator to accept or c. been forced into by some series of fortunate/unfortunate/non-relevant circumstances. However that person may have come to follow his religion/belief/faith is his and his business alone. It, by no means, gives said person (missionary) to come parading his religion and trying to make a sale at my doorstep.

This is like asking a Britney Spears fan to join the Metallica fan club and on top of that trying to imprint on this person that Britney is the source of all his problems and that by listening to Metallica all his problems will magically disappear. Its ridiculous, if instant conversion meant instant gratification, there would be no such thing as hell.

Now back to the "Local Phenomenon" point. All places needed some banner for people to unite under, so each Religion decided to create one entity to whom God had spoken, the Christians had Christ, the Muslims had Prophet Muhammad, the Jews took Moses. All these people became sort of Local celebrities, and their influence only extended upto their community. When trans-continental travel was created, all these religions decided to branch out to get more recruits, thats when all the problems began and they still persist. If each religion had stayed in its local zone, these problem would never have arisen, imagine the number of conflicts humanity could have averted, the Crusades, Israel/Palestine conflict, Hindu/Muslim wars, World War II.

What I'm trying to say, in the middle of the night, in an extremely round-about way is; Religion lost its essence and purpose of bringing people together when it branched out, when people saw something opposing the ideal imbibed in them since birth, it created conflict, problems and worries. No one will stand and listen if you tell them that their opinion and belief is baseless when theirs in equally stupid, its equivalent to a kid with one arm making fun of a kid with one leg, both are disabled but each think that they are better off.




Endword and Apologies:

Sorry for the long post, but if you've skipped parts of the post without reading the whole body, please regain patience, time and grace; scroll up and read the whole thing.

Excuse me for all the different religions mentioned in this post and for such a brash post. Some people(zealots) may not like this post, but there will always be people too blocked in their mind to open their eyes and look about.

This post is my view point, its my belief. Whatever the readers belief might be, I'm not exactly opposed to it, its your belief after all. But I only wish you read again with an open mind.

P.S.> This would not be a good place to issue death threats by my name, or damn me to hell or warn of bodily harm. Your belief is yours and yours only. My view is mine and mine only. I'm not trying to impose my views on you, I hope you do not aim to do the same.

Music is my Aeroplane.

When im crying alone, and when im cold as a dying stone.

Grow me a garden of Roses, Paint me the colors of sky and rain. Teach me to speak with their voices. Show me the way and ill try again.

Without you I am nothing at all. And life has the face of a morbid game. With you nothing is impossible, it all seems to fit the frame.

- Poets of the Fall - Roses.

One of my favorite songs. Its quite clear to see why. Although i don't consider myself to be so much of a hopeless romantic, i find this song extremely appealing to my inner Romeo.

There are certain songs which take you places just sitting at home in one place. The capability of music to sent a person to a whole different realm of thought, thinking, understanding, sense, creativity, awareness. After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.

Personally, I feel, there are very few artistes who can express silence in such a divine manner so that it may be branded as music. The ability to express the silence in your mind in a tune and a tone so as to transport those thoughts and ideas through another medium in such a way that the person who pays heed to such "Music" can feel the pain or love, or even hate. This insane talent is given to a few god-blessed people on this planet. We have only seen and recognized a few of such geniuses in our lifetime, and god knows how many have died unknown with their music still inside them.

There's an amazing clarity in my train of thought when I listen to music. I had never realized the role music has played in my life until it actually entered my life. Who would ever have thought that there can be one thing which can not just calm an individual down but also aggravate him and relate with his circumstance. Those who are affected by music can be divided into two classes: those who hear the spiritual meaning, and those who hear the material sound. There are good and evil results in each case.

Somehow it seems Music helps me understand myself better, it puts a sort of rhythm to my life which i needed desperately. I think I should have no other mortal wants, if I could always have plenty of music. It seems to infuse strength into my limbs and ideas into my brain. Life seems to go on without effort, when I am filled with music.
