For now

(SFX – Wind Blowing)

(Guitar BEGINS)

(Percussion BEGINS)

(Bass BEGINS)

Sizzling fire flaming my back

I run from the times that pull me back

The scar on my skin, the chain around my neck

It all starts to itch

I scratch my scar

(Strings BEGIN)

Caught in this aching misery

I have smiled to drown my pain

And, they send me their number to read my mind

(Drums BEGIN)

(Guitar SOLO)

I’ve ran life’s race myself

I’ve ran it quite well

The choices I’ve broken

I have forsaken

Being full of myself

So, think of me like the wind

I’ll come and I’ll go and

I’ll not return back

(Drum FILL)

I am caught in this aching misery

I have

Smiled to drown my pain

And, they send me their number to read my mind

I found myself someone to listen to my stories

She smiles, and then she grins just like everyone

But, I’m like the wind, I won’t stay for long

I won’t be around, be it right or wrong

I have touched and felt the soul of misery

So, I understand your story, better than you think

“Forget me like your worst nightmare”

And, you’ll be fine

Do this only for yourself

And not for me

I am caught in this aching misery

I have

Smiled to drown my pain

And, they send me their number to read my mind

And, they give me a token to read my mind

And, they ask me how I still stand

And, they ask me how does it feel to survive

And, they ask me this to read my mind

Not as a friend, just as someone

And, someone is good enough

For now

(MUSIC FADE OUT)
