(Guitar solo)
(NO DRUMS)
Starts off slow and gentle
It’s black and it’s fetish
You could hear it roaring by
You couldn’t see it coming by
And, you
Only believe in what you see
(Guitar and violin solo)
So, I wait for it to appear
Only to see it disappear
And I speculate how its
Effect has affected me
(BACKGROUND VOCALS)
Defected me
At a distance
Far beyond than I care
It’s small when I’m away
It grows with the distance
(Sitar and Violin solo + Drums begin)
This silence is defiance to this incoming violence (WHISPER)
(Instrumentals + SFX – 1 minute)
I shy away, I run away
As it reaches for me
It chases me endlessly
I’m terrified
By the movement beyond control
I’m losing my soul
Without you
(Drums stop)
(Guitar solo + SFX EXTRO)
This silence is defiance to this unforgiving violence (WHISPER)

Very impressive Ajey.
I like the symbolism in this one, open to many interpretations and shows the runaway of fear, the inner self and the unexpected.
@Khaled - Ah!!! It is so nice to read your comment sadeeq'. Thank you. I am glad you like this one. Shokran!!!
I really enjoyed this song...it sounds very poetic. Nicely done Brosreview.
@The Write Girl - Thanks, you!!!
Hi Ajey,
Very powerful!! Enigmatic, but reaches deep into the core... Distance does not always make us feel safe... Silence may be the best defense against things beyond our control. Really good!!
-Alex
@Alexandra - Thanks a lot!!!
these lyrics draw me right in! perfect pic to go along with it.
@Shadow - Thank you!!!
this was awesomee!
It had a glitchy connect with the prelude of one of my favorite hindi movie track though... "Tere dar par sanam chale aaye ..."
I love that song!
and I loved this piece too!

@PULKIT - Thanks!!! I am glad you like it.
AJ-yes, the running and chasing and movement beyond control. Music tempo's thoughts like these so well! ~rick
@Rikkij - Thanks mate!!! Nice to know that you spotted it.
the whole lyrics was amazing.
This silence is defiance to this incoming violence (WHISPER)........ this is my favorite. i truly felt that someone is whispering this line to me.
@Preeetilata - Thank you!!!
Ajey,
Again, very dense and beautiful poetry. Poe and Blake... Yet, your style is very personal.
Your brilliant word play creates playfulness, which compliments the darker elements: "appear" and disappear", "affected" and "Defected".
Your texts are also very unpredictable and complex and that it great.

@Jenny - Thank you!!! I admire you noticing all these factors. They matter a lot whilst understanding this one. The toughest part was adding the instrumental sections.
Thanks again.
This is absolutely fantastic Ajey..!!!
Some things, out of control
It's really good...
@Make Me Disappear - Thank you.
I shy away, I run away
As it reaches for me
It chases me endlessly
I’m terrified
By the movement beyond control
GREAT lyrics. These make me dance

*Starts off slow and gentle

You know I can hear this in my head. No really I do not joke AJ.

I am liking your words, muchly; you!
@inky - Thank you!!!
@Maverick - Thank you!!!
SarahA - Ah, that means a lot. Thank you!!!
Hmm, I distinctly remember this. You've made some radical changes to this one. I read this from its skeleton and so can identify its roots.
Splendid! Really, the musical elements are staggering!
You know what line remains my favourite. And, I am glad you did not change it. This one -
"I’m losing my soul
Without you"
This says it all. Or, I must put it this way. This surprises!!!
Great job Ajey. I have been noticing you're putting your old songs more than the new ones aka the 2009's. Any specific reasons?
Don't misunderstand. These are all fantastic. But, I have read them all and we have discussed about all these for hours. Why not share your new ones to your readers here?
Well, I have written enough. Keep your thoughts flowing.
@J - Thanks mate. You remembered? How could you not?
Yes, I made some changes as I spotted some more errors in it.
Yea, that line changes the whole path, I believe.
Yes, I shall be putting my new ones. No specific reasons behind releasing me old songs first.
It is really overwhelming to read a good or positive feedback from you. It means a lot to me. Thanks mate!!!
"You could hear it roaring by
You couldn’t see it coming by
And, you
Only believe in what you see"
My favorite thing you've written. I wish it were mine.
@Woman in a Window - Thanks!!!
"So, I wait for it to appear
Only to see it disappear "
no words for these two.. spellbound
This silence is defiance to this incoming violence (WHISPER)
i like it so much... especially the whisper bit..
@riddhi - Thanks, I am glad you like it.
Defiance? Could it be a forbidden love? Someone who fell for another, yet, their love cannot or was forced not to happen.
In the end of this song, I am seeing a man, running aimlessly in a dark background. As if searching for this forbidden love of his life, trying to defy all odds.

Sometimes you have to stop and let the darkness engulf you so you can smash out from within to regain your freedom into the light from the fear thats chasing you
Sounds like "war" to me - Defiance. Perfect.
The lines I loved:
"So, I wait for it to appear
Only to see it disappear
And I speculate how its
Effect has affected me"
"I shy away, I run away
As it reaches for me
It chases me endlessly
I’m terrified
By the movement beyond control"
@zorlone - I like your interpretation Z. Thank you!!!
@Walker - Nicely put. Thanks for reading.
@Viji - Nice take there. Thank you!!!
So, this is my debut at your blog..
A mysterious touch to it.. hauting to some extent..
"Silence is defiance to this unforgiving violence".. Phew!! Wonderfully penned...
i love the tone and the flowing of words in this song. the dramatic approach to sending a message, complemented by the dark, mystical photograph opens up the minds of every reader.
PS: thanks so much for the prayers! i'm now feeling way better from the operation, and is back into writing again.
best regards!
@Zendagi - Thanks, you!!!
@Drol - Nice to know you are feeling better now. Thanks for appreciating the song.
This silence is defiance to this unforgiving violence (WHISPER)I liked this, my friend. I could hear its hush deep inside me...
