Muffled Tongue
Here I m standing at the bay
Feeling the slipping sand beneath my toes
Only colour dat my eyes can c is blue
Everything seemed so surreal around
As if I cannot get anymore quite
But wat r those noises dat fill my ear
What r these screams bringing me fear
Though there aren't any waves lashing the shores
There aren't any high tides hitting the rocks
But y does it all seem a chaos
Is it dar my eyes can't c the reality
Or is. It dat they r blindfolded by the agony
It seems dat a hullabaloo is dwelling inside me
I tried to silence the noise ringing in my ear
I tried to wipe out those unseen tears
I tried to scream shout out loud
All in vain I wish the muffled tongue
Could speak for itself
Is this pain running in my blood
Or is it numbness rushing through my veins
Here I stand been the two infinities
Few steps ahead I become a memory
Few steps behind I become a legendary
