Dreaming With Open Eyes

After a hard day’s work
I return to my lonely bed
All your thoughts are stuck
Deep inside my head
I lay down gently
For my body aches
I’ll kneel and pray all night
If that’s what it takes

My thoughts carry me
Across the common sky
Amidst the moon and stars
Where your beauty lie
It’s so quiet
I can hear my heart beat
I can hear angels scream
While the demons cheat

But not a moment is lost
In nature’s tale
Against your beauty
Even Gods would fail
It’s getting darker
The birds have ceased to call
The clock keeps ticking
Night’s getting tall

My mind reaches back
To thoughts of you and me
Every sin is forgiven
In your memory
Traces of your face
Begin to appear
It’s the only thing
I hold dear

A hundred million lovers
Are crying out
They’re asking me to meet you
Before time runs out
Somewhere out there
I know you feel the same
I can even hear you
Calling out my name

Can you hear my voice?
And don’t you lie this time
I know you like to play games
But don’t play them tonight
Open up your window
Everything will be just fine
Reach out your hand
And I’ll hold it against mine

Sleep betrays me
Very little I care
It isn’t long before
The morning sun is here
I dream of you
Staring into the sky
I dream of you
And the night passes me by

The Most Memorable Dance

Will you forgive me?
I know I’ve made a wrong decision
It has cost us a lot
More than we thought
But I’m not a man blessed with precision

Will you forgive me?
I should have never let you go
I’m here all alone
Relatively unknown
Like a joker in a circus show

Will you forgive me?
I should have heard what you said
I lost my heart
We were drifting apart
And now I’m even losing my head

Will you forgive me?
I’m trying my best to be a better man
Better than I was
Better than I am
Trying to give you everything that I can

Will you forgive me?
And give me just one more chance
And hold my hand
Until the end
And I’ll make this the most memorable dance

Not A Love Song

Here it starts all over again
My heart has started ruling my brain
All my efforts have been in vain
For so long
I don’t see a sign of rain
But your thoughts are blossoming again
I always wanted to feel this pain
All along
This ain’t a love song
This ain’t a love song
This ain’t a love song
But I could be wrong

My broken heart, you once did steal
Then you made a perfect deal
Returned back everything that was real
Didn’t you?
Now it’s taking time to heal
Darling, you’ve got nerves of steel
But my heart’s too weak to feel
Anything until
I write a love song
A love song
But this ain’t a love song
I could be wrong

Random thoughts pass me by
And I really don’t know why
I didn’t give it one more try
With you
Now that all the damage’s done
I’ve been trying hard to run
But baby I’ve just begun
To miss you
This ain’t a love song
This ain’t a love song
This ain’t a love song
But I could be wrong

End, Nightmares Do Not

I had a dream
I fell in love
My friend asked me to be wise
“She’s just a devil in disguise.”
But my heart rose above

I had a dream
It was a new start
Nothing else mattered
All the barriers had been shattered
I had lost my heart

I had a dream
Like the one I’ve never had
Beautiful as it was
Every feeling had a cause
Troubled times lay ahead

I had a dream
She turned me against my friend
Swore under the sun
Asked me to choose one
Or she would spell our end

I had a dream
And a brainwash too
Didn’t think twice
Believed all her lies
What was I to do?

I had a dream
I killed my friend
Shot him while he wasn’t looking
Now I have trouble sleeping
For nights on end

I had a dream
More of a nightmare
It was without a doubt
She got the devil in me out
I see his face everywhere

I had a dream
Alone with my past
Safe from man and law
A murder without a flaw
But the curse had been cast

I had a dream
My fortunes took a turn
Lady Luck deserted me
So did she
They left me here to burn

I had a dream
The stage was set
My deeds had been weighed
My death-bed had been made
And they told me not to fret

I had a dream
They offered me a cup
They had a great laugh
As they cut my heart in half
And I never woke up

Theys-promised-that-dreams

Past Is Past

I burned my heart

Buried my mind

Your memories wouldn’t haunt me anymore

I’m leaving them far behind

O’ Beautiful Friend

How much can you tempt me?

How much can you lure?

I’ll fall for you someday

Of that you seem so sure

Your charm is irresistible

Your love not so pure

I’ve had my heart broken ere

I still have found no cure

How much do I owe you

For teaching me a lesson

About life, love, treachery

Romance, truth and passion

And now it must end

End it must, without a reason

My heart is not so weak

That I could swear under the sun

There is very little doubt

You’ve been a good friend

Not every story has a happy ending

This is how we end

If you’re afraid of goodbyes

Just let things stand

Someday we’ll meet again

In a faraway land

Yes, Beautiful friend

This is the end

Summer Days

Summer days have come and gone

Left me shivering

I find myself alone

Half dead and withering

Have you lost your way

Amidst the pouring rain?

Feels like déjà vu

All over again

Stars used to be so bright

Till the tables took a turn

Now they watch me weep

Now they watch me burn

Little did I know

Nightmares do come true

Memories hurt so bad

When I think of you

Not one moment’s passed

Without you on my mind

Never thought you’d treat me

So cruel and unkind

I miss your warmth and hold

Never thought you’d turn so cold

Am I destined to be this way?

Am I dead or am I old?

So long so long

My fragile bones are calling on

You are just like those summer days

You too have come and gone

Stella

Take me to another world

Away from here

Away from these mortals

Bound by fate and fear

Where time stands still

Souls are set free

Pain’s o’er the hill

There I wanna be

Where worlds collide

Space echoes

Numbers are

The only foes

Where dreams are real

Love is true

Truth is pure

And passion too

Where dreams are real

Love is true

There I’ll wait

I’ll wait for you

Fare Thee Well

I had everything I wanted and happiness too

Now it’s all gone away except loneliness and you

I’ve got a house to run and bills to pay

Leave the loneliness behind but you be on your way

There are lessons here one must learn

It’s all over now, baby we’re done

Do you remember the time when we used to dance in the air?

Break all the rules and not give a care?

I only remember you nagging all day and snoring all night

Baby, don’t you understand I want you out of my sight

Darling, it has ceased to be fun

I hate to say it, but baby we’re done

We’ve changed a lot and you know it very well

I’ve been ignoring you, it isn’t hard to tell

Instead of hugs and kisses, we yell

It used to be a paradise but now it’s a living hell

Do you still think I’m the one?

Come on say it now, baby we’re done

For once let us give truth a chance

More than false hope and ugly romance

I’ve lost my smile and every pence

And you’re making me lose all of my sense

I’ve said what I have to. Now it’s your turn

Don’t bother me now, baby we’re done

It’s not like I didn’t give it a try

But couldn’t answer my heart when he asked why

Perhaps we were never meant to be

We’ll go our separate ways for it’s the land of the free

And if you get bored of yourself, here’s a gun

Shoot yourself or whatever, but baby we’re done

The Swindler

I know just who you are

No need to deceive. Don’t even try

You came in like a storm

Left without a goodbye

And while you were going

You left the ruins behind

Left me to pick up the pieces

For what I was destined

I know just who you are

It isn’t hard to see

Not so sure about others

Who are spellbound by thee

I should have been wiser

I had been warned

Couldn’t even think straight then

Of you i was so fond

I know just who you are

From the company you keep

Bitches and vixens

Black cat and a creep

They further your cause

And get your dark side out

I tried to change you for good

Of no use, I found out

I know just who you are

And i know what you do

All your secrets are revealed

And everything you’re up to

You seek attention

Love the limelight

You think it’ll last forever

You’re as blind as night

I know just who you are

Don’t pretend to be otherwise

Its crystal clear now

I can see it in your eyes

You’re nothing but a swindler

And stealing is your art

Take anything you want

But give me back my heart

I can live with the scar

I know just who you are
