The Race Against Time

. Life's a celebration, friendship makes it two, and love three.. as dawn awaits dusk, and darkness owes to light.. every scar,rejoices this earth, has a brighter side.. Live it up for today, Dress up for your night, run for the time they gave, and,leave what's past behind.. a treasure to cherish, and moments,to unwind, follow thy heart, don't forget your mind.. As Life's a celebration, and this world,blind.. Oshan..

. Hanging around in silence, with words never said, and words unwritten.. Falls to the corner, a mortal unknown.. Sunken in treasury, and a world,his own.. Here comes the time, when he speaks out.. But,the world's history, carves enough doubt.. From base to 9, the system isn't fine.. There's a mirror to hew, of images he drew.. Like a vulture, that kills the prone.. with good, never shown, The Evil dies alone.. Oshan..

. sach to yeh bhi hai ki.. ek zindagi ko zarurat tumhari hai.. sach to yeh bhi hai ki.. sabse pyaari apni yeh yaari hai.. sach to yeh bhi hai ki.. tum bin akele hain hamm.. sach to yeh bhi hai ki.. har pal yaad tumhe karte hain hamm.. sach to yeh bhi hai ki.. koi khaas zindagi mein tumsa nahin.. sach to yeh bhi hai ki.. payenge tumhe hamm fir yahin.. sach to yeh bhi hai ki.. hamm na thay kabhi tumse anjaan.. sach to yeh bhi hai ki.. tumse he hai hamari pehchaan.. sach to yeh bhi hai ki.. dil se nahin tum hamare door.. aur sach yeh bhi hai ki.. kabhi tum to kabhi hamm hue majboor.. Oshan..

. Who are we..? different streets,different souls.. succumbed to this system, system of loop holes.. who are we..? different lives,different roles.. some played,some withdrawn, some half way through, unaccomplished goals.. who are we..? dancers tied in chains.. swayed by emotions, and thoughts insane.. who are we..? one world,common fouls.. used enough,without doubt, hollow,still profound.. who are we..? trade of a game, killing hand to hands, feeding our gain.. Oshan..

. hearts and clubs, diamonds and spades, back to back, they make a trail.. played with cards called life, sometimes fell, sometimes survived.. sometimes won this race, clubbed ace to ace.. a fierce trial to escape, those i trusted with grace.. the ride of disgust, that began some august.. a jack with three, alot more than misery.. a word to remember, but,not to praise.. as the deck fails, with no hidden trails.. as when the boat blinks, no one in this world, follows till it sinks.. Oshan..

. I'll tell you a story, a story of the three.. in there own worlds, now missing in me.. That fine august, the tale starts through.. a day at mocha's, we clicked the view.. i remember the movie, when i was lagging behind.. i remeber those days, when i was being kind.. two of three, we trailed the beach.. Most of the times, two had a split.. damn,we'd fight, damn,we complained, banged our heads, turned ice into rage.. then,a 7 to stun, guns on gun.. my head on fire, blamed me,the liar.. 2 years down, they think i am fake.. now,i'm confused.. to stay or brake.. Oshan..

. walks through the corridors , and the morning lanes.. bunking those classes, and flying those planes.. I miss being 17 again.. Sitting by the window i met my past.. The times i partied, Times i had a blast.. miss those friends, and miss those rains, I miss being 17 again.. Twice those years, i met my love.. Love at first sight, most ecstatic,not plain.. Things never get fine, But i loved those days.. I miss being 17 again.. Well, i miss those years, and you miss them too.. But there's a string of joy, That connects us through.. i know,they'll be here, when i'm in pain.. i wish i was 17 again.. Oshan..

. spoon full of sand, not the morning dew.. lives just sidle, split and skew.. steps may mingle steps, not always walk through.. some scars are so deep, enough to kill the crew.. if left are, memories, when back, a crime.. if lost is, luck, but, to lose is prime.. and,if you lose, you are a fool.. and,if you don't, you are a tool.. Oshan..

. Leaving a lap, and bringing in the distance.. A shadow's gap, and the 'good' is gone.. I still.. but we won't be back.. I still.. but now we lack.. I still.. but this time says 'no'.. n I still.. Look through my window.. Don't know where, am going to be.. Don't know where,life takes me.. It may be never.. But it should be now.. It's time to say goodbye, Take a Bow... Oshan..

. kya ab khona, aur kya ab paana hai.. door kahin tumse.. hamein chalte chale jaana hai.. kuch shaam tale, sawera nahin hota.. kuch yaadoin se.. basera nahin hota.. kuch kahe tumse, yeh fitrat nahin hamari.. woh saath he kaisa, jab raas na aaye yaari.. ajnabee lagta hai chehra, yeh kissa nahin ab azamaana hai.. door kahin tumse, hamein chalte chale jaana hai.. Oshan..

. Living back this season again, when life has, no reasons again.. It seems all so set, My soul is thirsty, my eyes so wet.. I abjured those feelings, I killed those names.. still entangled in this circle, I detest these games.. A day that steps, I look for something new.. who heals this wound, and steals my view.. I want to break these lines, make a world of my own.. Escape like a firefly, happy and unknown.. Oshan

. the song is dead, and my eyes are red.. there's a devil in the sky, ever sad,no spry.. think, i just killed, the heart that filled.. it feels so blue, wish i had a clue.. is it wrong, or is it right..? to lose your breath, and follow the kite.. i'm on a journey of reason, that lacks any core.. i'll find my way someday.. not forfeit to my folk.. Oshan..

. Hate me o' friend, we hit the same soul.. hate me o' friend, i object in your goal.. hate me o' friend, the rights are all down.. hate me o' friend i'll prick in your wound.. Hate me o' friend, The space is to less.. hate me o' friend, I won't share the rest.. hate me o' friend, My shadow is cold.. hate me o' friend, i'm rust,not gold.. Hate me o' friend, don't wait for my word.. Hate me o' friend, and fly like a bird.. Oshan

. It's autumn again, and we are going to shed.. all the colours of this year green,blue and red.. It's autumn again, and the past is dead.. we are out of that way, where the monarch lead.. It's autumn again, and we have to forget.. The relations that came, and left us bereft.. It's autumn again, and the nights are dark.. The glory behind, has left its spark.. It's autumn again, and the sea is high.. Believe it or not, Its time to find your sky. Oshan..

. Kho jaane de tu rahon mein, khatti kabhi meethi,in chaaon mein.. talaash kiski hai tujhe dariya, berukh in hawaaon mein.. Mit jaane de ab meri nishaani, ast hai, ab yeh kahani.. beh chal sang is naaw ke, badle hai rang ,fizaaon ke.. bhar jaaye jo,ghaav hai, mit jaye jo,yaad hai, khul jaye to,raaz hai, keh paye to,baat hai.. Khamoshi hai ab meri zoobani, Tham chuki hai yeh Zindgaani.. Oshan..

. i don't want to write.. love is out of sight.. it feels so blue.. where were you..? i don't want to fight.. let it be,alright.. feels like i'll sink.. god,accept that ring.. i don't want to be, you will never see, it isn't so cool.. stop being a fool.. i want to run, where lies the fun.. as the stars go bright.. let there be light.. Oshan..

. There's no one at my door, my hands are empty, and my thoughts are soar.. The book uncovers, its all haze.. wipe my hands, to see our race.. a cluster of hypocrites, glossy,no base.. when life has no options, you settle down.. when life has no answers, you throw the crown.. when life has no words, you find your noun.. things not taken, and things they deceit.. measure of their thinkin, enough to blow this heat.. Face this, human, do not just quit.. live this life, bit by bit.. Oshan..

. she is my mom, she'd be knowing me,right.. she'll be guiding me, when the light goes bright.. she'd be missing me, when am out of sight.. she'd be caring, when am not wise.. she is my mom, she'd be waiting for me,right.. Mom, can i tell you am awake..? how do i tell you,here its so fake.. how do i tell you that i miss you.. how do i tell you that i need you.. how do i tell you,cant stand these fears.. how do i tell you,cant control these tears.. mom you know, your smile,lights up my eyes.. mom, your love is my life.. Oshan..

. trust somebody, with your eyes closed.. trust somebody, for the role they play.. trust somebody, for there special way.. hurt somebody, so they're hurt no more.. hurt somebody, till they close there door.. hurt somebody, for the colors they wore.. hate somebody, for what they did.. hate somebody, for the price you paid, hate somebody, till you get rid.. love somebody, for the time they keep.. love somebody, for your eyes, they read.. love somebody, so that it hurts no more.. And,Be somebody, who can fill the fore.. Oshan..

. pyaas iss pal ki.. jaane kya rang layegi.. kabhi sawaan kabhi aag.. tapish hai yeh paak, har pal tujhe satayegi, kabhi raas na ayegi.. pyaala kisi shaam ka.. dard kisi jaam ka.. sangharsh mere sangraam ka.. dost bas ik naam ka.. sansaar hai yeh sapno ka.. bas tere he apno ka.. shoor na sar kar.. door na dar kar.. kuch to kar pehchaan.. itna badal na aye insaan.. Oshan..

. is it real..? or is it sarcasm..? is it an upheavel..? a war or spasm.. no soup, no bowl, isolated with the soul.. empty in its race, shuddered by the pace.. A world i wander, Thoughts,i often ponder.. lonely on the lane, scrambled not sane.. Sometimes nights are so black, that i loose my track.. not open to this dawn, as burried under a lawn.. Oshan..

. aye raahi.. kaun hai yahan tera apna.. kiski hai yeh kashti.. kiska hai yeh sapna.. tu he tu.. bas tu he tu.. nahin koi apna.. na koi paraye.. chalte chalte apne iss.. mann ko samjhaye.. hai iss pall.. rahe na, ek.. khol yeh aankhein.. fisle hai raeth.. thaam ke kahan chale.. koi haatoin mein haath.. kehna ko koi hota apna.. hoti fir kya baat.. milta nahin koi yuhin aisa.. jo samajh sake tere jasbaad.. Oshan

. Walkin fast down the lane, sooner or later, Twas gonna rain.. Now it scares me.. when it does.. You house your clay, and it turns to mud.. A word we know, and a world we must, well trust is rust.. and Friendship dust.. It's slayed with time, It's sold a dime.. Now saying these words, Isn't such a crime.. Now rain oh! rain, its again your time.. I'll kill those memories, sweet,bitter or lime.. Oshan..

. Tujhe sochta huin ab aise, tham jaye yeh behti nadi jaise.. udd chala hai ab kahin sapno ka jahan, khushiyon bhara asmaan ab hai veeran.. tujhe sochta huin ab aise, pyasa ho yeh saawan jaise.. dheere yeh kaisi hawa chali hai, murjha si gai ab har woh kali hai.. tujhe sochta huin ab aise, iss deep tale andhera hai jaise.. ab laut fir iss dil mein na aana, kahin zindagi ka tum raag sajana.. Fir sochun na tujhe aise, ki tu mera koi apna ho jaise... Oshan..

. 7 hain fir bhi saath nahin, ab iss zindagi mein, woh baat nahin.. kaun hain hamm, ab yaad nahin, iss masti mein, ab, woh ehsaas nahin.. hain khush, ab kismat se haare.. kaun jaane kab, yeh zindagi thokar maare.. kaisi thi yeh dosti, kaisa tha yeh waada, kaise ,kab aur kyun, rootha yeh irada.. kaisi hai yeh shikayat, kaisi hai yeh saza, hass rahe hain hamm, par nahin hai woh maza.. naye hain ab chehre, naya hai har jan, dabb gaya jo mehfil mein, yeh pyaar na hoga kam.. 7 Rocks ..

. Everything in life, is sure to be back.. What you threw, is what you never lack.. Sooner or later, The sky will drop.. They will be back, and you thought you'd crop.. Names yet changed, the faces deranged.. They all are the same, A part of this game.. Now you are haunted, your life screwed.. Now run my child, you have been used.. But they are sure to come, They will be back.. They'll kill you one day, they'll stab your back.. Oshan..
