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.
