Midnight,Moonlight and a Dark romance.















The moon is only half full
like my smile is half real
my head is still filled
with the memories of you
that brought me so much joy
then so much pain

the tears are not mine this time
but yours
and the stars fall from my sky
as if to tell me
that there's nothing I can do
but sit back and watch them fall

and as much as I reach to you
the sky gets darker
the moon just gets smaller
until I cant even fake a smile

The Dew.




I love nature,I love winter sunlight,I love Dew,I love Green Leaves,I love waterfalls,I love Forests,I love Trees and did i mention that i love Dew ? :D










The dew,
like fresh tears,
from a lonely night,
I take them in my palm,
and kiss them,
let them slide into my mouth
The dew,
as soft, sweet pearls,
that made me forget,
that yesterday, was made from pain

iSmile


And I smile forced to watch them and embrace
Holding my truest feelings in careful check
Closing doors in my mind locking them tight shut
feelings shuttered behind masks elaborate facade

A heart breaking beneath the elaborate facade
underneath the careful masquerade and illusion
spilling congratulations carefully rehearsed
Acting the bright smile to hide the cracking inside

Laughter bubbling up to hide inside sorrow
Raising glasses and calling to the couple
Inside I am tortured being made to listen
idle chatter about how happy they are

Fraudulently agreeing enthusiastically
Nodding they make a picture perfect pair
The drink tasteless in the glass I raise to toast
As the lie leaves my lips another piece of me dies

Tears trails show I can’t hide them
I fake my claim for tears of joy this time
Hugging both tightly pulled close arms lingering
Perhaps about one just a fraction longer

For the sake of a friendships remain silent
vow to say nothing but well wishes
No words on a concealed broken heart
Eyes only for each other I’m one in the crowd

Love being loved in the arms of another
Every touch and glance between them
Saccharine Sweet but a knife wound
Every kiss - hidden agony the blade twists

Still I smile…

Credence

restrained and Deserted Again
only your shadows speak to me now.
Walking in Stormy rains, in sand hurricane.
Night captured me.
The journey escapes from my embrace.

Strange silhouettes whisper your name, scream your sadness.
And at last they all goes away
instead facing more of this death.

Credence in my word.
Written in blood, touched by Nostalgia.
I confess my love, recognize my loneliness


The Truth i see weeping in your Laughter.
Push me into the corner.
Carving the epitaph of my soul
and displaying the once unknown LOVE.



Another mess up with song :D
Opeth - Credence.

A Leaf.


Lifting in wind
To the scarlet sky
Breaks loose and
Gently falls


Pic : Satara Town and thee Peepal Tree.

Candle in the wind and WE.


Like a bright candle,
I'll lead you through,
What darkness you oppose,
The wind that blows.

Global Metal.


Yes,Sam Dunn is back with Scot Mcfadyen — the makers of the acclaimed documentary “Metal: A Headbanger’s Journey” — with a new documentary called "Global Metal".


"Global Metal" is the follow-up film to "Metal: A Headbanger's Journey" which explored metal's impact and controversy over the past 35 years and featured interviews with Tony Iommi, Bruce Dickinson, Alice Cooper, Ronnie James Dio, SLAYER, Dee Snider, ARCH ENEMY, LAMB OF GOD, CANNIBAL CORPSE, EMPEROR and many more. The two-disc DVD set was released in North America in May and includes extended interviews, an interactive metal history chart, and a mini-doc on Norwegian black metal.

The basic idea of Global metal is to study the impact of Metal on world's culture beyond Europe and North America.The metal fan and an anthropologist traveled through Asia,North America and middle east exploring lower side of world's extreme music scene — From Indian Death metal to Chinese Black Metal to Israeli Progressive Metal to Iranian Thrash Metal. “Global Metal” reveals a worldwide community of metalheads who aren’t just absorbing metal from the West — they’re transforming it, creating a new form of cultural expression in societies dominated by conflict, corruption and mass consumption.

“Global Metal” is expected to hit theaters later this spring. :| ( so damn late! )

A beautiful Sojourn.


I. She
Unseen,Unheard of her,
She tipped into my life
Like a gush of cool breeze,
Blowing past in summer
There was no music,
no lyrical song song on her arrival
Except on eternal coolness
Ever had we met before..?
Perhaps No!!!



II. My Days
before i welcomed her,
She invaded me,reigning her way,
Dethroned one and all
All her days were mine
My shambles was shut
And i was made to
Sing,dance,flow and dream
Yet , did i ever relish her..?
Perhaps No!!!



III. My Life.
Scorching heat of the days,
passed like floating clouds
stormy nights changed their paths,
My room was shaded
Under the silhouette of hills
flowers bloomed in my garden again
The noisy cacophony turned into sweet melody
And i was! waving and flowing like a stream,
Down the mountains towards the valley
Did i ever dream of her..?
Perhaps No!!!


IV. The End.
But, one day
Her sojourn had ended
When i opened my eyes
She was waving goodbye and then gone
An un-characteristic and un-shambled life
the reminder of her fragrance
That is left in me
Did i ever wish to live with her..?
Perhaps No!!!



V. Today.
Today,
the pyromaniac in me
fighting a lost battle
Only whining and crying
I asked myself
Did i ever love her..?
No Answer!
Yet i wish,
I could live a longer life with HER!!!!!

OPETH,OPETH,OPETH.

In the woods of Blackwater Park
Lies a house of Hidden Worlds
Confusing the word that blinds me
Leaving my Reality
Beyond the Hour
Of Unearthly Peace
Seeking the deliverance
That belongs to the soul of the unforgiven
Ghosts reveries
Seeking the death that whispered a lullaby
The Morningrise
That wakes the devil
Full of deceit of eternal Damnation
Still life
Is taking over
Seeking the Orchid
That leads to a better world
I seek the grave
From my arms to your hearse
I wake up and see the light of day
I now leave the space that took me away….



Dedicated to OPETH.

Last.fm: number of tracks vs. time played

What I find a bit weird about how last.fm tracks listening trends, is that they only use the number of times you played a certain track. I always felt that this would favour bands that create shorter songs. A band with a average song lengths of 7 minutes will only get half as much scrobbles (in last.fm jargon) as a a band with average song lengths of 3,5 minutes. I used to wonder what effect this would have on my charts.

I must not have been the only one, because when I was looking at the build.last.fm page, my eye caught the last.fm normalizer tool. This tool will take your top 50 artists and rerank them according to the estimated time that you listened to them (more info can be found on the tool's site).



Yes,It was time to rant and got nothing better than this shit. :|


Hail IIT as its going to screw my net in few minutes.
Good Night :-)

Goodbye II

Its time to say goodbye
even though i might cry
goodbye to all memories
the ones i tried to keep
goodbye to all long night talks
and the nighty walks
goodbye to all the trouble
even though the thought makes me crumble
goodbye to the one i once loved
into a box is where you will be shoved
goodbye to all the tears
to all my fears
goodbye to demon that eats me inside
to all the reasons i cried
goodbye to all songs
goodbye to all wrongs
goodbye to the one who believed of
to the one who blinded me
goodbye to one who led me into temptation
the one who did my wrong
goodbye to all time we spent together
for this will be better
i ll make it without you
i ll start of all new
it ll be hard without you here
even though you dint care
its been long enough
i am breaking free me these handcuffs
finally free
and finally i can see
the world is a better place without bringing me down
never again will i drown.


Another emoitic shit.wrote long back ago on cell in the clans while smoking :D.
