A best friend
Be's the best he
Can ever be
Don't take it for granted that
Everything goodll come if
Fate allows it
To fourth and search
Hither until
It knocks your head
Just about right
Know your enemies
Love your friends
Many are lost through
Naysaying and slandering
Obviously those types of
People will realise
Queens and Kings will be
Recrowned, killed and
Sanctioned against
Through hatred and anger
Unless a person who
Verbs his way through
Wards of hospitals where
Xenophobia is lost while
You sit like a caged animal in a
ZOO!

A QUIET GIRL TO MANY I SEEMED
THEY AREN'T AWARE OF WHAT I CAN BE
MY WAYS ARE IMPROVING THROUGH FINE CARE
I MASTER INTRICATE PROBLEMS WITH FLAIR

TRUST IS SOMETHING EARNED OVER A LONG TIME
RESPONSIBILITY IS TAUGHT THROUGH TRUST AND HOPE
I WANT MY ELDERS TO SEE THOSE QUALITIES WITHIN
SO THAT THEY CAN DEPEND ON ME IN TIMES OF DISTRAUGHT

MY GRADES SEEMED SNAIL LIKE
MY DREAMS A SIMILARITY
THIS YEAR I'M TRYING TO IMPROVE
AND BE BETTER THAN WHAT I WAS PREVIOUSLY
SCHOOL, FROM NOW ON IS A TOP PRIORITY
MY SUBJECTS WILL BE EASY,I HOPE
I AM TRYING MY BEST

I MIGHT SEEM QUIET AND DETACHED
BUT I'M DREAMING BIG, THAT'S A FACT
MY SELF CONFIDENCE SEEMS LOW
BUT MY SELF ESTEEM A HIGH ONE, THOUGH
THINGS CAN ONLY GO BETTER
THAN IT WAS BEFORE

IT'LL TAKE PATIENCE
PERSEVERANCE
DETERMINATION
THAT'S GOOD SURE

THE EARTH IS IN OF HELPERS
TO PROTECT AND CONSERVE HER
SHE CRIES WHEN WE POLLUTE
SHE SMILED WHEN WE MAKE A DIFFERENCE

I INTEND TO BE A PART OF A GROUP
THAT CLEANS UP THIS WORLD
SO THAT IN FUTURE MANY CAN REAL THE RICHNESS OF IT

RUNNING A MILE IS DIFFERENT
BUT THAT'S GOING TO CHANGE
I'M SURE IT WILL

THIS WILL BALANCE MY LIFE
BROADEN MY BRAIN
RELAX MY BODY
I'M GOING TO NEED DEDICATION
MOTIVATION
PARTICIPATION

A COLD PLACE FAR UP NORTH
IS WHERE IS LIKE TO TRAVEL FOURTH
AND MEET A FEW BOYS, WHO ARE
SPECIAL TO ME

i asked for a gift for myself
from myself
you gave a gift to yourself
yourself
and keep asking me if i wanted to play
and she sits by the table waiting
for a pick up
not a dress-up
it'll blow up
and the tarnished ruins
haunt her within

the hole in her heart
is too big to mend
the ache in her head
is too much pain
just like when roses perish
beneath the blanket of snow
and sun smiles too much
which lets them feel it
and burn them
roses, no more

hopeful they'll remain, when their ancestors face again
and you and i, will sit somewhere nicer
than the underseat of your bedroom
sitting in the kitchen waiting for maids to clean your room

and the secret new girl, who's hidden from my world
she's disguised my point of view
and teachers preach, it's out of reach
the same soul returns to haunt another
change your views
the same soul tries to revive you more
only to sought

a truth among you hides in vain
hidden from sight, on the pane
the heart that searches for its mate
won't find it without gates
normal people search high and low
for a bush that would seem for show
their love tarnished for they know now
that the fairer are those who turn brows

I used to like swimming in the warm seas on a cold day
I never wanted to share my ice cream with you,but anyway
You told me something I almost forgot
And now we're up here, and became little dots

You're moving upper and upper
And I'm moving downer and downer
But if I life seems happier and friendlier
Why waste your time, put on a smile?
Why think twice, put on a smile?

Your world from afar seems bright and happy
And my world up close is far from yours
But if you come closer and see the undergrowth
You'll notice the difference between us

And you're feeling bluer and bluer
But life is painted with rainbow colours
And you keep frowning and crying and shouting
Why deny your face, just put on a smile?
Why live in a hapless place, put on a smile?

And when everybody leaves on planes
Seasons pass and trees will change
And when they leave you alone
I hope you don't feel like you're alone
This world has people on it
Why be lonely, scaredly, frightening and somehow describing
Your way back home, to a stranger you go
And they don't respond anymore
But if you put on a smile, even for a while
Your sad and blue and greyish day
Will turn up for the better and you'll be okay

So if we both go up and down and cry all around
If we somehow laugh at the silliest things, playing childish games
If we learnt to love our reflection in the mirror
Why would you live her and not, put on a smile?
Put on a smile before it gets too late, when your body doesn't move again,
And you're feeling kinda sorry then...

Put on a smile, don't ask why
Put on a smile, don't try to close your eyes
Open then wide, show your brightness
Your happiness ends when you feel worthless
So chin up, chest high
Open your eyes, and PUT ON A SMILE...

I was sitting on a green couch, in the nearby row
You were quite far away from me, and further from him
Your favourite song was playing, and you went dancing
That's all you wanted to do, I can't take my eyes off you
Your friends seemed to be boring, they weren't smiling
They sat with hands folded and sat lazily, borderd
The bass beat  seemed to zing, you went to the stage to sing
I guess that moment was special, it's where you werent so shell
Thats when things began to get better, the music was louder
People didnt play on phones or dwindle with their fingers

And thats when they came and blamed you for everything
The snobs and jerks were poking and such fun having
Mocked you at being different and unique, simple and petite
Thats when I stepped in and pushed them aside and said

Youre just a girl and im just a guy, we are different in each way
We werent created to become perfect at everything
Or to be teased and mocked and laughed at
We only came to learn in life that when your chance comes
You gotta live it up and go dancing in the disco lights
Where everyone seems to be at peace with themselves and life

They looked at you I  disgust, they said they heard you sing
They said they saw you do some kind of dancing
I checked my minds eye rear view mirror and remembered
You were dancing all alone on your own on the floor
Your friends didn't want to stay and dance and chat
And thats when my gap came and I took it swiftly

And thats when they came and blamed you for everything
The snobs and jerks were poking and such fun having
Mocked you at being different and unique, simple and petite
Thats when I stepped in and pushed them aside and said

Youre just a girl and im just a guy, we are different in each way
We werent created to become perfect at everything
Or to be teased and mocked and laughed at
We only came to learn in life that when your chance comes
You gotta live it up and go dancing in the disco lights
Where everyone seems to be at peace with themselves and life

Your tears seemed to fall so suddenly and my mouth began to fall
It appears you care too much about others and you often forget
You should be the one who matters most not the one gets all the neglect
You go crazy over someone else's spilled milk
And you think youre better when you care like that

Think, you've always mattered to the lonlely guy at the end of the corridor
And now you have someone who thinks you matter more than the shameful guy who just uses you
Think about your friends who's left you nothing
And your enemies left advice in their footsteps
Saying that you're better off without them
And you're stubborn to notice
That the love of your life
Just walked through the door and gave you a kiss
And its funny when you realise that he was me the whole time

Youre just a girl and im just a guy, we are different in each way
We werent created to become perfect at everything
Or to be teased and mocked and laughed at
We only came to learn in life that when your chance comes
You gotta live it up and go dancing in the disco lights
Where everyone seems to be at peace with themselves and life

Under the sewers
Stay a race unknown
They've hidden themselves
So that we can't see
How good a people they are
And how bad a human we are

Under the sewers
Last among the village
A wee hamlet
Which inside is a wizard
Who is hated throughout their whole population
All coz he made a silly accusation
But insisted on a proclamation
That would divert them from devastation

Under the sewers
We're the children crying
Their tummies a aching
They mouths a shouting

Under the sewers
Of a great country
Is where many sit and sigh
This is where they hide for protection
From the above world
Where riches and material
Are valuable
And where deeds are left
And they treat many like vagrants

Under the sewers
were where my dreams would be
They would be out of the ordinary
Of course that's just a story
That I made up, imaginatively

Sitting outside the window
Looking through the rain
Looking right out the window
Sitting here on the pane

I see the sun setting
I see the clouds floating by
I see the moon coming out again
It's coming out to shine shine shine

You get the moon
And you get the sun
You see them rise
And you see them set
You see the moon
And you see the sun
You see them rise
And set again

It is the moon and the sun
Moon moon
Moon and the sun

The stars come out to play
The stars come out to shine
The stars come writing out
Their names I the night
The stars are playing with me
They are playing In the little night
I hear the stars crying out loud
The stars crying loud
I see them shouting for me
Look at this imagination
This perplexity, perplexity

And then, and then
I see the sun coming down
The moon going out
I see it shining at last
It is the moon and the sun
Moon and the sun
Moon and the sun

I saw them crying
I see the shining high at me
I see it burning the fields
I see it burning the grass
I see the sun at last
I see the moon finally
Perplexity...

Baby it's cold in here
Baby that's all I fear
Having you leave me near

The danger ending
People are stating
Their expectations...

Hurtful actions are acted everywhere
People commit them, they don't care
Thinking they're right in every way
Doing what they doing just isn't the same
They host campaigns to overrun us
They advertise just to ruin us
How can one live in a world of people that's not free
Then they expect the nation to live together in peace

In a country, there are groups
Of people mixed together like soup
They discriminate, they shame
They make everyone feel the same
Separation between skin tones
Determination above them all
All they did was for peace and success to win
Sadly they weren't accepted and instead were rejected

I would always FIGHT for peace
NEVER would I let go of my dream
I've learnt to be fierce
Find a hole and pierce
The walls that'd soon come down
The mighty parliament would drown
The ruling would never fight, they don't have the time
Many would rejoice and give, others make choices a dream

I would rather love in a nation with peace
At least, everyday I would be able to live
With different, equal people of another race
Where we'd all be happy, all at the same place
Yes I'd rather be an equal
I'd rather not be an official
Everyday is a brand new day with many possibilities
Everyone should try and achieve the impossibility

I look at the world
I see they're hurt
From all the fighting
And all the slaying
All they do is peach their sermons
On how peace should be theirs
Yet no-one had the courage to make a change
They'd rather DIE than be an honest saint

Peace has not been added
Peace had not been blabbed

FIGHTS are common
Fights are ruining

People are afraid
People can change

Parties rule hard
Parties separate us

Actions are physical
Actions hurt people

I think I can be the changing agent
I know I can be the one who shapes the world to perfection

You lift me up high
I achieve my dreams
You lift my spirits
Yet I can't see
You are busy hiding
Away from life
Why are you lying
To me in daylight?

Have people heard of those that die?

You praise the ground I walk on
While I reiterate your actions
A friend are you to me
A friend AM I to you too the end
I will know your faults
I will lift you up
I will be your support
That brings you up
I will be your truth
When there are only lies
I will be your heart
When you have no reason to love
I will be your honor
When you feel ashamed
I will be your brain
When you feel stupid
I will be your light
When you are in the dark
I will be your smile
When all you do is cry
I will be your life
When you would want to die
I want you too be the reason
I wake up with a smile
And I want you too always be shade
So I can admire you from a distance
I want you too always be happy
Coz I am only happy when you are
What we have might seem fake
But at least to me it's real
Don't treat up what we have
People will try to separate us
But we have to stick together
Coz I friendship like ours should last forever
And ever...

Colors provoke emotion
Red is lively and confident
Green is peaceful worth inner strength
Blue is deep and supernatural
Yellow is warm, exciting, disturbing our even totally bonkers
White is silent and full of possibilities

she is a devil within
she is one of hells gifts
to our mother earth
coz she has no worth
she is a devil...

she lied to me
broke a promise
she'll never be forgiven
she is a back stabber
she cant be trusted
if you look at her
youll see that she is a devil within

shes got black eyes
with black nails
she has no life
so she'll always fail

she's conceited
loves dark colours
I dont know why
she is family

coz she is a devil
a devil
a devil
within...

I'll sit and wait
Another day
Where I'll cry
Cry my eyes dry
A place where everyone
Avoids all the time
A place where no one
Comes to see the crime

There's times when
The silence is the sound
I can't comprehend
When the beat is loud

You make me fly way
Will see your heart
I will go places
Where I'm all alone
On my own
Can't you see
Me standing here
Because
My own feet
Holds me up
My own friends
Keeps me up

There are times
When the sky has no clouds
There are times
When there are hoards of clouds

I just wanna fly away

Flying away would make me
Happy to see
Their smiles
Happy to hear
Their voices

All i wish to ask
For you to let me go
Break the shackles
May i go home

Don't keep me
Don't hold me
Don't touch me
Just leave
And let me go
Let me fly away
Higher every day
On my own

On
My
Own...

In the big and blue
Are people swimming
With watershoes
Transparence is the colour hue
Of this ocean

It has waves of many sizes
Rock and sand as well
Shoals of fish that swim
Together in vast numbers so swell!

There is a cycle
That cannot forfeit
To be broken
Or destroyed yet

There's yet so much to discover
But our stubborness overpowers
Many tropicals
Many corals
So much to see

In the big and blue
What lies at the depths of it
Is still a mystery
Even if we search and search
We won't find what we're looking for

But what are we looking for?
Why are we looking for this?

The sky is like a person
And the sea like a mirror
To discover the skys true beauty
It uses the sea's reflection

Making this water
Either blue or green
The sky beautifies
The magnificent sea

There are fantasies
Oh so wonderful dreams
They make us believe
That's it's not what it seems

They hypnotize, cover up
But the beauties
Are amongst us

In the big and blue
Are animals of many kinds
There are waves
That will break
On the sand
There are rocks
That and homes
Fish and plant

In the big and blue
You'll find colours so true
It's like a rainbow
Underwater now!

I was never the guy everybody went to when they saw something
I was never the guy who got all the girls and went to parties
But I stood on the pavement as the cars drove by
You never spoke to people who barely knew your name
And you always said that life is a chessboard you play
But the only way to win is to give way and try

Never got a call from her
Never got any numbers
People whispered when they walked by
I was left alone in the library
Bullies searching for a new bait
And I was easy to find, by my gait

Oh you can try to be a fancy guy
Who wears those flashy things
You can call me a loser
If you really want to
Coz I can take the punch
Of a thousand fists
And I can still stand tall as a tree

You never see the way before you come nearer
The water's cold and it's getting murkier
Wanting me to leave this place
YeH I might listen to Taylor on replay everyday
And you might hate what I talk about today
But don't bet on my leaving today

This world I live in feels like it's cursed
Every child here's another word
For carelessness and hopelessness
Time that I have turns faster than it can
And the gold that I hold melts in my hands
But the mystery and cherishing
Makes me think back to when
Everything I knew was like the world before
But now, it's just a system of corruption
Ruling our lands, the places we took control of
All of our blood spilled like falling rain, all over the place
And the worth of each drop of sweat is just like the grain of sand

And this life makes me feel like a loser
But I don't care anymore
These people make me wanna cry in the bathroom
But I don't care anymore
So if I chose to listen to their useless words
Would I ever care for...
It

The feelings gone, the pains are accumulating
The rain that drips, the story's are summarising
They coming to an end, why is it ending?
The desert of truth, is constantly burning
The forest of lies, it's constantly growing
The horrible fights, is sounding like growling
Of course it would, you both are like animals

My heart is breaking
My eyes are watering
My life is tearing
My body is wearing
My hands are carrying
My brain is thinking
What's happening?
My house is breaking
The maid is cleaning
The poor are leaning
I can't take this
You are lying
You aren't helping
You're just there for the show

If it rains and it snows
You'll just want to go
You'll take it all, with you
My aching heart, with you
You'd leave a string, of hope
Many girls crying, from you
Their tears ain't enough
FOR you to give up
Why you leaving?
Are you best at it?
Your offspring are orphaned
When we die, and our lives
Are forgotten, it old kids
Are thrown away
They don't get too play
Why should I even care
whether you are dead
Coz all you did was turn my life up
Side
Down...

it was in the beginning of the end of spring
and all i wanted was you
you bathed my eyes in loving lies that sting
while you hid away the truth
every moment that you take a step back
you'd rather walk a mile
and if you even told me that
i guess I'd rather force a smile

this time is part of another millennium
you and your friends can smoke cigars
this time i get to open up my arms
you and your friends like to laugh loud
another day, wishing that i stopped asking twice
another way, going another direction, this time

i always mess up and we fight all night long
and you eventually shut me out, close the door
and when i try to phone you to make up
you've already moved on, before i got up

so don't come with your tales, when everything turns sour
you had your chance, and it was your last hour
to fix the broken pieces and fit it back again
so maybe when we brush against each other
we'll see eye to eye

this time i swear i know it's over
with you and your laughable lies
this time i think i know it's over
coz you got yourself a new guy
and he forgets to call you
or whisper goodnight
but if you're wondering how i'm doing
take a number, my dear
and maybe, maybe then i'll get back to you

and it was in the beginning of summer
when the sun had smiled for long
and now that i look in your eyes
all i see is winter snow

your eyes are like frost, it pierces through my heart
your words are like knives, thrown into my chest
nobody will be like me, coz you wanted him
and now you're crying, and now you're trying
to get away
but it's just for
today

this time i swear i know it's over
you will never get my hand to hold
this time i swear i think it's over
that you ever get warm by me, when it's cold
never call me, you're freaking out
you sent me a text, saying that we're past
so don't pretend like i hurt you bad
when all i did was make you glad
and now that you don't want what you got
you better keep it, coz it's a gift, not bought

Oh! How I long to hear the sounds of my beloved daughter,
The sweet aroma of flowers all over.
Seeing her skipping, singing, dancing
In the beautiful Sunshine!

Oh my trove! Who longs for another
Thus love is something unlucky to me
So I took her beneath the soil
And made her my bride for all eternity

To him I was his everything
But to me,all he was, was a cruel,heartless soul
How I longed to be in my mothers arms again
Regret is what I feel,I shouldve listened

3 months of happiness,3 months of neglect
3 months of pain, 3 months of rejoicement!

Has the sun set on our time together?
Has it broken up our spirits?
Was it those peeping Tom's that cracked our floor
and made us fall through?

If every waking moment was spent on finding your lost list of treasures
And every day was spent trying to recover the lost souls of the past
The world would have a shadow lifted off its face
Like a purple-dyed draped curtain being pulled off at the rails

If humans could see the measure of their worth,
Before destroying what they had built,
Perhaps the sun would...

Perhaps the sun would lift a little higher
Perhaps the sun would shine a little brighter

I remember walking all around the city
Flashing lights and bustling cars
All the people kept staring, looking at you
You smiled and looked back at your heart

It was breaking, cracks appearing
You were crying, we were saving
Couldn't mend it, coz he broke it
Glad you ended it, he wasn't worth it

I remember pink clouds of candy floss
Long walks on the beach
Fun days and endless crazy days

Was it when you laughed?
That I found peace
Was it in your hand
That I was beaten
Everybody still tells you what to do
Nobody gives you a chance to think of you

Was this how life had to be?
You moved away, further from me
Was it when you stood him up
That you fight back harder  these days

Remember the mornings, making toast
Remember the feelings, of letting go
Remember your heart when you said no
Remember that time almost lost

Was it when you laughed
That he came back
Left you hanging for a while
After two days of love
He never told you what
He was supposed to

And you made your own
Sister talk with him
And you two went out
And then you left him

You barely talk at all, maybe with your friends
But they are not around, they never were with you till the end
And we can run around, like the kids we used to be
And they can TAUNT us now, but we don't see

Was it when you were laughing
That you let go so hard
Was it when I was crying
That you had to leave
Why did you go through with everything
You could've just let me know

And in the memories, in the evening
When the sun sets, you're still breathing
Letting go of, all that you love
Let this end now, it's time to go now

Four days gone I'm feeling sober
Four days gone I'm crying over and over
Looking for someone to help me
Feel healthy yet I'm alone
Nobody near me to save me

I pick up the phone
Just to say hello
And greet you until i never can
I'm calling to find out if you can
Help me be a healthy man

You rush over
Help go over
To a doctor

I'm falling down on the floor
You pick me up and go to the door
I need help, i need it quick
You drove fast by to a clinic

The doctor comes and examines me
I'm turning blind, oh i can't see
The dizziness adds on too
The laziness makes me a fool

A few days by, I'm on a bed
You visit me, asked if rested
The Doc comes in and calls you out
He talks to you and then you shout

You wail and cry
And you wonder why
I'll be saying goodbye
Today

My changes of life have been cut down
My tomorrow's become a no good town
To stay in, i cry once or twice
And i remember your famous smile

You take me home, held me close
And say you love me, yet your love
For me, has made it hard to see
How long and dear you've cared for me

But before i go, i wish to show
That I'll remember your radiant glow
That lit up my day, and without delay
It made me feel more like family

So today I'll cry, and I'll sleep
And close my eyes before you weep
You wake me up to see me breathe
I tell you that I'm fine to leave

I just need to close my eyes
And to picture your smile
Which made me happy
And will for all eternity....

Years of torture
Years of pain
Years of crying
With no gain
So many that died
So many that tried
Theuy saved us all
In the end
Leaving opposers
Speechless

But a day came
When a man came
Outta prison
Then that day came
When those in vain
Stepped aside
Away from us

Freedom is inside
Freedom is outside
Our land is doing fine
We have been colonized
In the end, they say we'll die
Those oppressors
Say we'll see our time
We deny and say we're true
Our History
States our fights too

Our battles
Our struggles
Our depression
Our recession
Our reconcilliation

There was a time
When colours mattered
I'm here to say
That we're past it
People line up all the way
They hope they'll get it
They know they'll get it
To say their say
To pledge a vote
To choose a suitor
To lead us to victory!

Anothr bird falls from heaven and bites the dust
The silver horse runs for eternity
While the burnng daisies; shall burn forever more

The chilling tense room if atmosphere so dense
Im feeling alarmed, shut of the suspense
The cobwebs are common, my smile retracting
They're heading for the hills, loud screaming

I'm living in a haunted house of memories
its dangerous, but light I almost see
my hearts pounding and soaring
the whisper call so scathing

You take a glance at me
And you laugh unapologetically
But my guess, my first one
Said: Oh yes, i wouldn't want
there to be misunderstandings, misunderstandings
and if there was a girl who came between us, between us
i guarantee you that i would win her over coz i know her better than you

i might just let go of the animals i keep in silence
and i might unlock the door that restricted all the violence
and i might be thinking of doing something, i really shouldn't do
and i guess there's one way, to settle this misery, and i'll do it to you

watch out, beware my canine pets
look out, before you can even swear
to stop this taunting and silly laughing and joking at me
i don't want to be your joke machine, and don't think of denying

one, two, three, it's over
for you, her and not me
look down the road,
there seems to be
some running dogs
they're outta control
what's that running like a firefly flying low?
i guess that's the chasing dogs i told you about
no denying, they're gonna get you
they'll fight with you
rest assured, those chasing dogs will you home

chasing, you, but they're the animals
and running, faster than airplanes
there's some ground to this air idea
and i wonder if it might work here
you'll be panting for days on end, on endings
until you agree to let me go and then, and then that's
when the fight's are over, and all the laughing stops
i just think you need to be kept on a line, now

watch out, beware my canine pets
look out, before you can even swear
to stop this taunting and silly laughing and joking at me
i don't want to be your joke machine, and don't think of denying

one, two, three, it's over
for you, her and not me
look down the road,
there seems to be
some running dogs
they're outta control
what's that running like a firefly flying low?
i guess that's the chasing dogs i told you about
no denying, they're gonna get you
they'll fight with you
rest assured, those chasing dogs will you home

i am not your rag doll, that you can throw around
i am not your silly toy, that you put in a toilet ***
i am not a clown and i don't even really like clowns
but you'll carry on like there's no today and what for?

Mother
I hate when you smother
And wipe my face all day

Mother
Hope you don't cover
My body and hug my face

Mother
I don't need your help
I can do it

Mother
Stop moaning
I hate the groaning

Mother
Would you leave me
To do as I please

Mother
Can you not see
That I am busy

Mother
have you not tried
To deny
That I won't be your child
Forever
Hope you got the message
Coz
It was loud and clear

*

Mother
Where are you
Are you in your room

Mother
I can't hear
The sounds you made

Mother
Where have you been
I have been waiting

Mother
Why am I crying
Why am I weeping

Mother
Are you with me
Are you near
Are you here
Are you staying
Are you crying
Are you trying
Are you hiding
Are you denying
Are you smothering
Are you covering

Mother
Mother
Mother
I miss you so much!

Guess who's going away
It will only be for four days
One for each broken heart
Every time I fell apart

It's a Friday night
And you're out again for some cool jazz fun
When you jump up
You feel so dizzy and you're queasy and its just not so fun

You want to order
But you can't afford
A single thing
And yet you're living
On a boat
You're afloat

Its a Saturday morning
And you went swimming
The fresh sea breeze is enjoying
The kareoke bars is ringing

Its the lively night
That keeps you alive
It's refreshing and you know it's right
I'm smiling at the busy deck with lights

You want to order
But you can't afford
A single thing
And yet you're living
On a boat
You're afloat

You want to party
But you dont have
Anything
And yet you're living
On a boat
You're sinking now

There is no time to congratulate
Its time to rejuvenate
Forget about your wrinkle worries
Coz its time you just keep living

Playing with water
Only drowns you further
Sitting quietly
Keeps  you sleepy
You don't know a thing
But yet you're living...

You want to order
But you can't afford...
All the time you dont have
A single thing
But here you are
And yet you're living
Like a queen
On a boat
You're not drowning
You're afloat, afloat

You want to party
For all those crying times
But you dont have
The tears to cry
Anything
Matters except him, her, them
And yet you're living
Yeah, yeah, yeah, living
On a boat
But you know you're feeling like...
And its time...to...get...off
Otherwise you'll fall...

There were times
When whites were right
There were times
When we had to fight

Our independance is important
There were those who died for it

Do you remember those different wars?
We fought until we could no more
We were being rearranged around to suit their needs
Why are we listening?

Freedom!
I wanna have freedom
Coz I can do what I like
And go where I like
Without being restricted

Freedom!
That is the sound
Of our kingdom
Peace and quiet
From here to there
From near to everywhere

Liberty!
We hanna have
Fraternity!
Well have
Equality!
Let us all be free
Freedom!
Let's my heart beat faster
It helps my mind at ease
We should try and give
To our kids
Our wish
My wish
Is for us to have
**FREEDOM!!!!

On a Tuesday afternoon we crashed
On a bike which before we laughed
And say you're words of remorse
While the tears of regret are sore
And the scars that we left behind
Remain on your face all the while
Your eye, is injured and it burns
Your mouth, is weaker and you learn

That we came for you and we shared with you
All our love and tears, we missed you here
And we left for you, we cried for you
We went so far and cane with masks
Only to be hypocritical, hypothetical
Nonsensical and impossible

Just You wait till you come out
I guarantee they will shout

There'll be cars and beds involved
And beaches and roads
Why sit all day and phone and cry
When you can get out
Every single day, we wait patiently
For a piece of news, hoping it's good
Better than this better than that
Never gonna go down that road,  again

That we came for you and we shared with you
All our love and tears, we missed you here
And we left for you, we cried for you
We went so far and cane with masks
Only to be hypocritical, hypothetical
Nonsensical and impossible

Just You wait till you come out
I guarantee they will shout

And it is clearer when the light is brighter
All the clouds are whiter and the seas are bigger
But are you surer of being more than her
And is our better not to care

They take their masks off and they reveal what's under
Their paint is gone and it reveals what's under
Their hypocritical looks reveals what's under
And my impossible bequests and thoughts reveals what's under

All the makeup and all the dress up
All the mess ups and all the slip ups
Makes me wanna know whther I was right all along
You said you never cared about my songs

And even if I blame myself,  it wont be sufficient
I've learnt to calm my yearning
And even if I break down the door, it wont be efficient
They try to keep us apart and you like to ask
Questions about the simple things
And it is nerve wrecking

And I took off my mask and stopped the party.

I storm out
And take a walk
It's quiet
Although it's dark

I need to clear
My head
And think this
Through

How will I know
If I can
Do all this?

When y'all shut
Me out, you
******* a kiss

You say
Don't worry
Deary
This is not your fight
But I do know the truth

I don't need this anymore
There aren't any tears to fall
This stress is eating on me
Even though I shouldn't be feeling
Like this

I get tired
Of wondering
Well I see
Another day?

I sit down
And looked ahead
I see the clouds drifting
The sun shining

Oh, even though this ain't my fight
What you're doing isn't right
Don't shut me out, let's talk
Let's sit down calmly, don't be a spoilsport

What would you do
It there ain't tomorrow
What would you do
If I weren't there
What would you do
If I didn't care
About you
What would you do
I want to ask you coz

I guess I don't really care
All because you're not there
I don't feel sad, down, or blue
Coz I how I'll get through this!

If life had been as easy
If time had been as quick
If death had been as painless
Then we would have been as pleased
As the sun is to shine with glory upon our shame-fallen Earth

I watched a dream play itself out in front of me
My tears fell down and I screamed gleefully
The songs had whispered in my ears
While the ladies danced, their partners entranced

If all I have is thrown out of my room,
How will you recover what was taken?
How can you destroy what's broken?
Is this life meant for those who don't look?

I see white smiles, I hear loud laughs
He sits in the other room, playing, calling me to
Join him while he drinks a glass of champagne
He falls asleep before he dreams, calling me too
If life was fair, then he'd have hair
But I guess, we'll have to make do

This instantaneous vow you made is forgotten
Time slips through my fingers as I hold on
But the terror, and the horror comes crawling to find
All that Terror and Horror was meant to find
Beauty sleeps soundly on the pillow
Her weary head heaves with all that sorrow
Her own husband left her for a scarecrow
Pity he never waited till tomorrow

He shares his gifts with all his children
They despise him for leaving sooner
He wishes he had a time-turner
Pity he never lived longer

As he walked through the cities and glanced at the skies
He noticed that God doesn't like to cry
and that He would take him, when it was needed
Pity that it was not a necessity

He sat with his mother at the back of the theater
They watched a show which rarely showed
And the medieval King slaughtered his own
Pity the living, because the dead is doing fine
Pity the old man who was left behind

It's late on a Sunday, and I'm all alone
why did u leave me and go home?
Your texts stopped and I enjoyed it
the sad silence had ruined me within...

I guess those secrets and jokes we said
and all those little empty promises
were just as it was and will always be
I don't think I trusted anyone this way

You said you'd be there, said u always cared
I guess you just lied, like u always did
was I the fool for having to trust you?
Maybe I was right in the first place
you should just remain a friend, enemy
maybe we should just call it quits

and your very last text to me just read
I AM SORRY AND I HOPE YOU FORGIVE ME
you were just a drip too much of water
and our love was like the sunshine
its everywhere and its a ****

its growing in my backyard, and I got rid of it
coz it reminded me of you and all my mistakes
I wish I never made
all those times I poured my heart out
you just laughed on the other side of the phone
and I guess it ended just too quick for us both
and now I am busy searching for the one who'll be there

Distance  you always wanted distance
Time, you always needed time
to think about your mistakes and your sayings
and how you left me alone again and I remember how we last saw each other through the mirror
and its all a coincidence
that you needed distance
and you needed your space
I was there to give it all away

And I am busy listening to my songs I sing
you are busy complaining on everything
and when I go swimming at the beach
you get so jealous of all of em staring at me
but you dont know how lucky you are
to have me around and be your only star

and I want you to know, I will be waiting
for you to be saying
that you're always thinking of me
and I hope you are feeling
like you're missing
every single thing about me

but I guess that I was dreaming for a bit too long
and you woke up from paradise when you spoke
about you leaving and you'll never see me
and I will be crying

just say goodbye you coward, you never even cared
you didnt have the guts to tell me face to face
and now after months of me crying and you begging again
I sit with the same old problem I sat with before

and you make me feel
like it's a bit too much to love
somebody you dont really wanna know
and it's all a game
and I always keep on losing it
and you wish you were the winner

and you wish you had me...

Three storeys high, and I can't believe
You told a lie, and now it all seems
Like we were not, even buddies
But you were shocked with what I revealed

Was it necessary to put on a show
Did you have to tell the whole world
You couldn't have done it on accident
Instead when we made up, you stabbed me again

And they might never wanna be by me
And they might always wanna taunt me
And they might never care again
If I fall, from a cliff, and I'm hanging on

Walking in a place, barely remembering to save grace
It was just another dream, that I'm in
And why oh why, would you even try
Are you unhappy with me, tell me
It doesn't regard all these whispers behind faces
They're just faceless robots
Trying to tear my heart out and replace
All the courage I got

It's Tuesday, I gave what you want
And today, you said what you wanted
And tomorrow, I never thought of getting
A text from you saying

Why would you, ever wanna pick on me
When I'm just an innocent little boy
Are you bored, or is this a joke again
Oh my word, can't you grow up even

Take your last steps before you fall down
I was there when they gave you your crown
This might have been the last time
Coz everybody might have believed you, this time

Do you think I care, do you think I lost
The thing is that I don't, think that you won
I might have been scratched up when you said it
Scratched up when I heard them laugh at me
But I still got what I want
And I'm gonna be it
And I just wanted to help you
But you turned me down
And we put it past us
At least I thought we did
But you went and escaped the secret
You were lying to me when you said sorry
This might have been your own democracy
The one I don't believe in
Could've been your true blessing
Guess it was no denying
Just let it be...
