Children of a lesser god
I sit and watch and watch and sit. The clock winds up without a tick. The empty shadows creep to death. It makes me sick. So sick.
The men came like just in that dream. When words fell back without a scream. A man’s prayers had left his lips. When a bullet whipped it up like cream.
Through hours lost and memories torn from its tender womb never born. There crouched a child in that dream who lay faceless with no limb and form.
His hand lay torn on another side, clutching something before he died. A shiny lollipop that once was white. Now covered with remnants of his hide.
The children of a lesser god. Blown to bits by religious fraud. Could someone end this wicked dream? I’m still buried under this unholy sod.

(This song is dedicated to innocent lives lost in Pakistan)
Death defy me,
Will you try me
In the morn of sweet surrender.
Dare to enter
Heart of winter
In the night of next day’s gloom.
Sick beside me
Will you hide me
In the folds of your blackened veil.
Still in mourning
With no warning
A bomb fell from the sky.
Let me hold you
Gently mould you
With my tears of salt and blood.
Life beyond me
Surely wronged me
As I slip inside your womb.

Break down the Walls
I look around and see the hate in people’s eyes,
The air is filled with the innocents’ cries,
Give me the strength to make sense of it all
As I lift the veil and break down the wall.
Black is white and white is black,
The red of my blood not yet dry.
A stench of lies has filled the air,
And I will question, why.
What sorrows befall a nation forever torn
In the hope of a revolution waiting to be born.
May it come swiftly and stand tall
As I lift the veil and break down the wall.
In your fear is the seed of courage,
In your sorrow, a ray of joy.
It takes only a grain of love
For hate to be destroyed.
So hold your head high and keep on the debate
Cuz water that flows does not stagnate.
O my Friends, hear me when I call
As I lift the veil and break down the wall.
