It is such a secret place, the land of tears.

Let it be



Thinking is overrated.
The prospect of contemplating is highly abused.
Sometimes just being blank, silence - gives you the answers for it all.


"Shadows are falling and I've been here all day
It's too hot to sleep and time is running away
Feel like my soul has turned into steel
I've still got the scars that the sun didn't heal
There's not even room enough to be anywhere
It's not dark yet, but it's getting there"

I wish I was a punk rocker



Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
In seventy-seven and sixty-nine revolution was in the air
I was born too late into a world that doesn't care
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair

When the head of state didn't play guitar
Not everybody drove a car
When music really mattered and when radio was king
When accountants didn't have control
And the media couldn't buy your soul
And computers were still scary and we didn't know everything

Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
In seventy-seven and sixty-nine revolution was in the air

I was born too late into a world that doesn't care
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair

When pop stars still remained a myth
And ignorance could still be bliss
And when god saved the queen she turned a whiter shade of pale
My mom and dad were in their teens
And anarchy was still a dream
And the only way to stay in touch was a letter in the mail

Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
In seventy-seven and sixty-nine revolution was in the air
I was born too late into a world that doesn't care
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair

When record shops were still on top
And vinyl was all that they stocked
And the super info highway was still drifting out in space
Kids were wearing hand me downs
And playing games meant kick arounds
And footballers still had long hair and dirt across their face


Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
In seventy-seven and sixty-nine revolution was in the air
I was born too late into a world that doesn't care
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair

I was born too late into a world that doesn't care
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair


P.S- Give it a hear. Song is just as beautiful as the lyrics. It's by Sandi Thom.

Dreading the Manic Monday

Statutory Warning : This post is not thought provoking, not a story,and not interesting. JUST rambles on a sunny Sunday.

Things have been extremely mundane really.

I am currently sick, craving coffee, and dreading my Strength Of Materials test tomorrow. Ugh.Next few weeks are pure torture. The inhumanity!

Submissions craze is on. Viva's are now right around the corner. Parents are at an all time high on the lectures.

College isn't all that painful though. I have been hooked on to Quizzing this sem. SPQC seemed to be my highlight of the week, thanks to Chinmay, Mayuresh, Sid, Krithika and the likes.

Met loads of new people this semester too. For once, college life doesn't seem to bleak :)

Diwali just went by. Met up with friends. Was nice :) My first anti-cracker diwali. Felt good.

Also, I cannot get past the 40th page in 1984. My house is engulfed in dirt. Painters and carpenters have taken over my home.

I am going insane. Period.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Now Reading : "1984" by George Orwell. STILL. *sigh* (Though I somehow seemed to start and finish 2 states by Chetan Bhagat in a day :P )
Now listening to: "Remember me lover"- Porcupine tree and "Sister Golden Hair"- America are on loop.
Now feeling: Icky.

Something in the way

Thoughts lie awake
Yellowing memories run by
Promises spell out
Images flash by

Old memories croon out
The sensations creep in
The thousand hopes unite
Insecurities breathe in

Communication suffers the strain
Relations get exchanged
Exhaustion takes it's toll
The eyes crave for more

Flowers seem to wilt
But the heart still glows with red
Do you really wish I was there?
