The Right Chords

Pluckin on the strings
thinking of a song
words keep flowing
I better get along

The drummer's in position
the bass is ready to rock
piano man's waiting for the cue
is this a cake walk?

The shows about to start
in my own garage
we are the audience
we are the stars!!

So if you wanna fight with the swords
you better play the right chords!
the shows dependent on you
this is serious business, not a zoo!!

The amps are already hooked up
voltage is what is being sucked in
are you ready to melt faces?
Then lets Rock!!!

Road Trip

(This could well be a song)

I was riding down the highway
when I saw you on the road
sittin there, waiting for someone

The smile you gave me
made me hit the brake pedal
The car went screech!
you came running to me

What you didn't do was look around
you didn't see the light coming
It was a truck speeding on the road
thank god its brakes were working

We got into the car, flabbergasted
took some liters of water to get us started
Speeds of more than hundred made her freak
she wrinkled my jacket instead of scream

And I'm riding on this highway with a mission
to be in a place I want to be in
and I'm Swerving the car in joy
The dust keeps coming in from the windows
I dunno where I'm goin.....

In The Shadows..

Hiding behind that tree I peep out
to see if the coast is clear
Looking around for answers
swept back with fear

The green moss on the bark
looks slippery to touch
Riding my thoughts all along
with me, without a crutch

Realizing the white light
is inside me and nowhere else
It cries out to break free
from shadows and darkness of wells

The spook has set in
fireflies flying around
I lay there still
right there on the ground
Pondering......

In Pursuit....

I walk into the glass door
only to find a bump on my head

Trying hard, searching for respite
searching for warmth, still searching..

Obstacles, path-breakers are many
life in the hot sun under the ozone

I whisper again and again
what I want to hear, from life

Breaking sweat, running hard
hurting my knee, falling down

I look around, I gaze at the million smiles
looking so happy, for themselves

For what they've done, for they've achieved
for what I've not done and I've perceived

Still in pursuit, will always be
In pursuit of happiness......

Epiphany

I ran from the top of the mountain
to the end of the sea
White light all around me
reminding me, I need to breathe

I close my eyes only,
to see the darkness
I don't know if I fear,
to do the right thing

Eyes roll around in a state of confusion
to decipher....life!!
Its all random, its all scattered
searching for meaning, realizing....

You stood there against the sun
looking down at me, at me
Searching for answers,
afraid to wake up!!

Wondering the cliff would vanish
and you would fall, down
to something unreal
may be surreal!

You wait, for the thought
you wait, until things are sought
you wait......

Looking For Waldo...

Theme parks, giant wheels
those moon glasses,
he fancies with great zeal

Walking around in red and white
with a stick, a cap and a bright smile

A joy in life he has, a zest for living
all he does is walk around,
and people look for him

A crowd of million, people all around
some with balloons,
and some on merry-go-rounds

Your eyes constantly search for him,
what is it that you search?
Is it the Waldo in you......

This Is Not The Life I Ordered

Crimson tears, trickle down my face
its like I'm far behind in this rat race

Front it what is visible, back is scarred
Don't know whats going on, brains are barred

Thunderstorms, lightning cracks
all in the head, nothings on track

Stings of thorns, oozing blood
pain on the face, closing bud

Looking up to the so called God
Searching for the heavenly light

This is not the life I ordered, I scream
Not your dish? eh?...
