It was on a cold rainy night
The storm blew with its might
The empty house I stood in
Not a single soul was seen

I heard the sound of footsteps
But all I saw was a black cat
I heard something whispered
But only few words I collected

The feeling inside me was fear
The feeling  someone was near
The feeling that is cold in heart
The feeling which leaves a mark

I tried to move but I simply can't
I was stuck in this room here
Trying to warm my frozen hand
Heart filled with constant fear

A man walk towards the bright light
Lighting a cigarette as he moved on
Thinking about his messed up life
Mistakes he made since he was born.

The street was quiet and empty
The night was filled with stars
His hands were very filthy
His body filled with deep scars

He was a total mess outside
Inside his heart kept on going
To him life is not a joy ride
Where people go on singing

The problems were always there
Playing tricks on people everyday
It is a burden we all must bear
Did anybody said that life was fair
