LOST CITY There on the top of the mountain I see a sight worth seeing For the mind to be racing ahead to there You need to be Ah! Living You can see it with your eyes You can feel it in your mind The dreams that’s lost in the remains Lost city, it can only be that Lost city, I wanna be there Lost city, I’m gonna be there Think about the people who walked this way Think about the feelings they had on those days Ask the stones how they loved and played Ask the stones how they warred and slayed They loved with their hearts They warred with their hands It was not just like today The souls, they still linger there Lost in time they stayed For the Heaven could not lure them Nor the hell could scare them They exist in the silence there! © Achu NIGHT Listen to the night You’ll feel the pain inside Feel it in your mind You’ll be pure as the tears from your eyes. Listen to your heart To be the man you are Mask it from the world You’ll tread the path alone. Look into your soul To feel the sense of life Let in a little darkness And into deep the cancer creeps. © Achu TOUCH When a touch can do wonders When a smile can soothe under A kiss can change the way You will live forever. Let me have it oh girl Please let me have it oh girl ‘cause I’m lying on the floor For a helping hand from above. If a dream can get you there If a flame can show the way Love can extend its arms To put you on the cloud. © Achu Completely out of this world. Where? Don’t know. But the body is here. Like a corpse that rot deep under. But the soul. You don’t know where. Like that the mind. The mind. It is high, high above the sky. Flying free like an eagle. But alone. With none to care, and no one who cares. But it is searching. Searching for a place to rest. Because it’s wings are aching. But where? Nowhere it can see a tree. A rock? No. Even the earth is too hot to put the feet on. The eagle is tired. With aching wings it tries to pull up. But in vain HE slowly starts descending. Slowly, slowly, ever too slowly. Spreading its wings. As it descends the science proves itself once more. Its speed increases. Down and down and down he crashes to the molten earth. Now there is no eagle. Only clouds. Black clouds without the silver lining. The thunder is yet to come. © Achu The mind is racing. But the destination? Do you need one? It is a galloping wild horse with flowing mane. He goes wherever he wants to. But he shies away form his own shadow. He is afraid of it. Afraid of his own shadow. Yes, I’m afraid of self-realisation. ‘cause I am a prisoner in myself. Or rather, the society made me a prisoner within myself. The dos and don’ts of the parents, the hell and Heaven of the religion, the good and bad of society, the obligations, the education, everything, everything chains me down. But the mind wants to break free. I can’t. Because I cannot escape from my beliefs. They are the extension of my past which would decide my future. Without my past I am nothing. © Achu
