(Piano INTRO)
(NO DRUMS THROUGHOUT)
Walking on the track
Where I think, but my
Thoughts are elsewhere
(Bass begins + Piano)
Steadily through the aisle
It goes, trembling and whistling
To burst open with seeds
(Strings begin + Bass + Piano)
Running on the path
It forms, concentric waves
In the coffee cup
(Guitar begins)
(Guitar solo)
My body stretched
My conscience stooped
My fear of derailment
Light from the tunnel
Is blinding, the sound
I hear is deafening
The sweaty fireworks
The cold and rambling jerks
Snow falls from the trees
(Guitar stops)
(Piano break)
A talk to myself
Ever changing shadows
Different patterns, they weave
(Strings break)
The merging voices settle
Amidst the thoughts, and the
Chain is finally pulled
(Strings stop)
The snow thawed
The water dripped, but
The vapour filled the timeless day
(Bass stop)
And, I
Forced my warmth on the
Cold metal
(Piano EXTRO)

Brilliant,
The ever running train pushing forward pushing forward like life,
which seems to feel at times as though it were running along sometimes of its own volition.
This piece is so complex that it will take many, many readings to flesh out the details of what you are saying.
The immediate reaction that I have though is of a somewhat desperate attempt at staying on track when so many chaotic things are happening.
I am in awe here darling, Muwah!
Hmm, Ajey, this is one of the complex stuff that you've written so far. As Annie has implied, this is deceivingly simple. Hang on, I cannot claim that as this one is not simple.
Hey, these are haiku and tanka put together,, aren't they? Fabulously brilliant! Just staggering!
I also understand a carnal pleasure here. And, there is a big "moral but" here.
No, I will talk to you about it rather than revealing much of what I think.
Ah, you are just excellent at this stuff!
Hush, I am off to your darling's spot now.
we go, we divert, we re-start, hear the words, that we should, that we must, that we dream... ever-changing, as life... love this ajey!
Mind Blowing.. Your thoughts are right on the track not elsewhere... Veyr very nice.. coming after a long time.. and soo glad that i did brose....
:)
This is an utterly gorgeous piece. Really, really beautiful.
What a stirring piece here AJ...the mind and body certainly feels a great emotional pull. There seems to be some abstract elements as well. I enjoyed reading your words.
Powerful, Ajey! What images, one after another. It's like a reel to reel.
simply gorgeous.
I had read this one, this morning. I just came back home, I held the freezing cold handle of the door, to open, and in a flash I was reminded of your Cold Metal. So here I am.
This is a nice piece AJ. Images, disturbing, you evoke. The ending is absolutely unrelenting.
And, I
Forced my warmth on the
Cold metal.
Sweet ! I liked it thoroughly.
Keep writing.

Back for another listen. Your blog is such a wonderful experience all of the time.
Ajey,
It definitely took me several iterations of reading and a little peek into the comments to get me started with comprehending this song. This one is definitely complex.
I felt it was of a man who has thousands of thoughts haunting him. There is distaste for life itself in his mind.
Merry Christmas.
Cheers,
Vittal
merry christmas!!!
Waiting for your next post.
The crossroads forcing us to choose then sweeping us away.
Merry Christmas
@Inky - Haha, that is okay. You now know! Thanks, you!!!
@SandyCarlson - You're always welcome!
@Vittaldas Prabhu - Thanks. Yes, this is very very complex.
Merry Christmas!!!
@island of peace - Thanks
@Walker - True. Merry Christmas!!!
powerful and kind of Nihilistic in its essence.. at least to me. and i love it :)
I can see many, many different things in this one.To name just a few- An inner struggle, an outer one, persistence and perseverance, but also a reverance. Yes, your friend J is right- there is alot to this one and Annie is right on track with where you are going with this I think.
Btw, it took me reading this several times before I commented. Excellent work here!
Ajey,
Love this piece!! The complexity of life rendered in few written thoughts; simple yet complex... covers the essence of ones existence.
Excellent write!!
-Alex
@Chhaya - Thanks
@findingmywingsinlife - Thanks, so much! Yes, this is quite complex.
@Alexandra - Thanks, you!
hey AJ - "vapor filled the timeless
day" - a killer line - so much
to be gleaned.
I am liking the images here and the images which make me feel such too.
'Running on the path
It forms, concentric waves
In the coffee cup'
My fav of the whole.
@SarahA - Thanks, so much!
"It goes trembling and whistling to
burst open with seeds".
This is a very emotional song Ajey.
