The beating of your heart.

I see music in the sky,
Walking to it..
I see shadows like mine.
Walls I pass,
Its like a maze I'm in.
I follow the butterfly effect,
Leaving scents at corners,
I can breathe you in the air.
Reaching out at all that I can.
Breathing every bit of you in,
Until I know where you are..
I see music,
Its the beating of your heart.

I feel my ears drum.
Its the voice of an angel,
Calling out my name,
I reach out to all that I can,
Lifting myself in the sky,
I fly towards the glow.
With every step I feel happiness,
Pouring in like the weather.
I feel you again.
The beating of your heart.

Heaven.


I don't know how it is up there,
Or If when we're there,
Will you see me like you do,
Down here, when you look at me.
With that smile,
Will you move an inch just to say hello.
Open your arms when I'm near there.
I don't know how heaven is,
But I just wish its like you...

I don't know about heaven,
But in my heaven,
Its just you and me.
Everybody is just you.
Its never dark, the moon shines.
Its never too brights,
The clouds stay on the horizon.
It rains when called for,
Its snows in the noon.
Its soo many things,
My heaven is nothing without you.

Sand.

Till the skies are blue,
With every step on the sand,
On the shore, you're so beautiful.
Like the sand,
You've slipped my mind,
And now I'm lost.
With volumes of the ocean,
Miles with nowhere to go.
With every step I look to my side,
I throw my hand away,
Hoping for you to grab.
But did I let you go?
Could I have held on tight?
Like the sand clentched in my fist.
With the wind you were gone,
And now I'm lost.
Lost in this dream, lost without you.

I'm no Lupe.


I'm no Lupe Fiasco,
But I'm still gonna make it through.
You could call me that crazy dude,
Can I smile or is that rude?
We could all go crazy,
Scratch our heads bald,
Just voice the things we think,
For the times we blink.
Every seconds a new movie,
Every moves a new story.
For all the characters we have,
That one who looked away,
Rushing with emotions,
Deep breathes he took.
That one with all the love,
Crying for the neighbour he never met.
Weeping with those he never knew.
Could we all just walk this same road?
Those with the generation's burden.
Keeping up with the cries of us.
For every whiny finger pointed towards us,
For every second we could cry but still go on.
I'm no Lupe Fiasco.
But I could try,
Let it be dry.
Say those words and fly,
Words that make you cry.

Dear Diary.

Some times I write pages of my diary.
You read how I love this perfect brown eyed girl.
Do you feel like I'm faking it all?
Do you need me to tell you its true?
She's so beautiful, she's almost a dream.
This could be that one page,
Some words of it could be hazy off the tears,
It could show how I've stayed up this night, tonight.
I know she's asleep but she's right here.
At the back of my mind,
These little things I couldn't pin to my diary,
These things I wish someone told you.
Do you feel like I'm faking it all?
Did you ever feel it too?
Like these words I sometimes say,
Are making you smile too.
Do you think its not just me, going crazy.
At some corner of the world, your diary holds my words.
She's amazing, I could just watch her live.
If you think I'm faking it,
Just be me when they play this song,
Feel every beat overwhelmed,
And tell me it isn't true.

More.

Getting hit by a truck,
Lifting off my feet,
I touch the sky,
Paint it with my wings,
Burst the clouds and come down to earth.
Watch you smile, just as it pours down.
At times its just the rush to see you smile,
When you sound so low, and there's not much to do.
I close my eyes and stop time.
Try all the things just to make you mine.
When I open my eyes, you smile at me.
With those roses in your hand.
Brush them to your cheeks,
Turning redder than the rose.
Burning every bit of me.
Everytime you breathe in,
When you close your eyes.
Making me itch to reach out,
Just to run my finger down your cheeks,
Watch you as you blush.
Looking away like its the way,
At times I close my eyes,
I wish I'd held your hand,
Held you close and just felt you there.
At times I close my eyes,
I wish I would've loved you more,
Look into your eyes and love you more.

Unthankful.

To imagine a life blind for you,
In a matter of seconds,
With a few turns taken wrong.
Think of the time you'll just hold my hand,
Staring into space.
This longing to see you again,
With tears in my eyes.
I'll cry just to see you again.

To images a life never hearing you again.
When its all numb, the world's forever silent.
Think of the time you'll look at me.
Say those words I'd never hear.
Crying in your arms,
Just to hear your voice.
Even in my dream, I couldn't hear your voice.

With my tongue tied.
I wish I could tell you all the things,
Stay up at night and tell you about it.
The way my heart beat, I can only make you feel.
Look into my eyes, this longing of telling you,
The truth, the longing of loving you.
I wish I could say those words.
Even in my dreams, I couldn't say those words.

So dead.

You'd think its so easy,
But a 'talk to you tomorrow',
Sounds to a dead day of sorrow.
One day without the sound of your voice,
And I barely hang on, busying myself.
I sleep early the days you're not there.
The days I've not calmed with your voice.
Wouldn't it be nicer to just have you here,
So I sit there as long as it takes,
To just hear your voice.
Till my phones rings again,
The number with the same last digits make me smile.
Smiling for a moment before I say hello,
And its all the same,
Like the clocks start working again,
Getting into the gears of yesterday.
Wouldn't it be nicer to just have you here.
A day without the calm of your voice,
One day without the sound of your voice.
Its so dead, it feels so dead.

The Distant One ft Arshad Ansari.

[Saad]
He said it all today,
Putting his heart on the plate,
Waiting for the words she's say.
Crossed his fingers but he never looked away.
Wishing he could just look in her eyes,
Fold the steps to her.
Distance is distance, a mere number.
He'd look in her eyes and say,
If only you'd seen it my way.
He seems lost, to every night he's been up.
Wishing on stars for the courage to burst open.
Shooting for the stars,
Trying to jump but never fall.
Now he falls free,
Freely fallin'.
And here's what he said...

[Arshad]
I said it today,
I poured my heart out.
There was nothing left to say,
Doing so,
I then palpitated,shivered to death.
To have that small reply.
But....
"A long distant one it is more of a waste of time" she said,
Love being far is more intense.
Give it a shot I say...
I wont let you go, I won't let you down.
Because if I do,
My things are gonna get more complicated for the coming days.
There's nothing gonna be that simple to it I say.
Now, if we try "love"...
Even if "an hour" call you spare.
my love for you wont experience rust,
Just more intense it would get.

5 minutes.

If I had five minutes to live,
I'd knock on your door.
Feeling the coldness pushing me away.
I'd be sorry for everything,
For the dissappointment that I've been.
For the times I've let you down.
I'm sorry but I just didn't drown.
If I told you I was going away.
Would it be love that you'd show?
Or the sympathy that you could never grow.
For the pain in my eyes is real.
In a while, I'll be left with nothing to feel.
If you heard the knock on your door,
Will make tears allow me in,
Can I say I'm sorry for what I've been,
For the times I've let you down.
Disappointing and for all those frowns.
If I told you I was going away.
Would you forgive me and hold me today.
For the last time, make me feel that way.
If its fake just let me go,
If its a bother, just let me know.

Sleepless.

In the corners you'll find me.
When the sun is about to set,
Look for me, and I'll be sitting there to weep.
Sleepless and esteemless, find me there.
For before the clouds starts to crash.
I forget how to feel.
Feeling so lost,
All I feel is the darkness inside,
Like a cloud in my chest, it pains.
Shaking up my world and I forget how to think.
You see me sitting, stare into my blank eyes.
Emotionless and thoughtless, feel this cold.
When the stars are about to fall,
Wishes that we couldn't wish for,
Staring into the sky, you're thinking of her.
Look for me, to lean on.
Find me in the corner, forgotten how to live.
Lifeless and souless, find me lying there.
May angels lead me in.
Here I meet my friends.

The old me.


Hand me that photograph.
Photograph of us three,
You point at me saying,
That's who I used to be...
I didn't want this,
I never wanted this..

When I cried to sleep,
The other night you held me tight.
Talking sense into me and I learned from you.
I said a few things, and they got to you.
You smiled at me, saying.
That's who you used to be, The real you.
I didn't want this,
I never wanted this..

I shut myself out, and changed myself.
I'm sorry everyday, but I remember that day.
Scraping onto my wounds, I was alone.
Torturing myself to give up.
Hammering a wall, outside of me.
Forgetting the me, I used to be.
Remembering the pain I used to feel.
Waking up feeling different every morning,
And you're here now,
Years after we've set apart.
Telling me who I used to be.
Hurting me inside,
That's who I wish you'd still be, the old you.
I didn't want this,
I never wanted this...

How am I supposed to do this?


When we're at the corner of the brigde,
With our feet hanging above the shore.
You look at me with those twinkling eyes.
Lean onto me, hold my hand and tell me.
How am I supposed to do this?

A few miles away,
Under these stars you'll breathe.
Away from me, away from love.
I wish I was a star, up above.

When I hold you for the last time,
You look at me with those twinkling eyes.
Expecting me to tell you I love you,
Expecting me to brush your cheeks for one last time,
But I ask you, one more time...
How am I supposed to do this?

Wiping away one of my tears,
I felt you smile on my shoulder.
You held my hand and stared again..
Piercing right through my soul.
You read me like a book,
Whispering in my ear, I hear you say.
With elegance, with love. With me, you're doing this.

A few miles away,
Under these stars you'll breathe.
Away from me, away from love.
I wish I was a star, up above.

The key.

I know I've said it,
But I want to show it to you,
This only key,
Key to my heart,
Hold back your hair,
Tieing it around your neck,
I want you to know how important you are,

I know I've said it,
But I want to make you feel this.
In the busiest of days, I call you,
A table for two, at the end of the highway.
Hold my hand and here I am.
I've left my cellphone in the car,
Tonight, you're the only thing on my mind.

Beneath the silver moon,
Lie here with me, by the sand.
I don't want you to ever cry again.
If its 3 in the morning,
Or time for my favourite talk show.
I'd ask you to ring me but you would never.

Here is the key,
The only extra key to my place.
Feel my heartbeat.
No second thoughts, no bluffing.
After you step in,
Call it home... Smile and come home.

I miss you.

Every other word you said,
After every other greet with love.
Meant much to tear up my eyes.
Now you're so far away,
And I count the steps.

Its almost twelve in the night,
And I'm walking to your place.
Barefoot, I'm carrying your heart in mine.
Walking to you, to hold you, or.
Make you whole again.

Oh I miss you.

With every corner that I turn,
I feel your heart pound louder.
I know I'm nearer to your face.
To look upto you and let you notice,
The pain in my eyes, drawing the days I've cried.
The night I've weeped, I've missed you.

After so long now that I see you,
I'm noticing ever freckle near your eyes,
Hoping that it'll just be you and me,
For the long while, I can't keep my eyes off you.
Hoping you to brush your warmth on my skin.
Everything you've done is beautiful...
I miss you, its getting hard to breathe.
Catch up with me.

Distant

Distant and broken,
I lie here on the floor,
Bleeding your name,
I'm crying for the day before,
With the brood on my face,
And drowsiness of my reflection.
I run fingers on my skin,
Feel the blood chilling the bone.
In this darkness, I shiver, here.
Drowning in my sadness,
Distant from you.
Shivering for your touch.
Lie down and tame me again.
Hold my hand and never let me go,
Kiss my skin, where your name they show..

Rain down on me.

So close, yet so far away.
You stand there, I'm longing to hold your hand,
Walk your way, smile like no clouds hover.
It drizzles and I feel cold again.
As my finger drags through my skin,
I feel the shivers, longing for you.
For the warmth I feel, here.
When you tell me you love me,
I fly, taking each step carefully.
Dizzily, yet I walk to you.
To tell you I love you too...
It rains down your tears,
Down on me for everytime tears you shed.
For everytime my care you seeked, never found.
For everytime you stood there without me,
But this time I'm here,

Smiling through this rain,
Ready to take that bullet, jump on a train.
I'm ready to pull you out of the dark.
I'm ready to set fire if your love's just a spark...
