Still, Standing Still

Wounded, Bewildered, Desolated

Destitute, Diverted, Deluded

Taking hike in all these vast oceans

Sulking into sinking ship

Wondering my life could be

With or without you

 

Rather hurt than feel nothing at all

Lost in the maze

Enjoying the pain, trying to take it all

Wondering what my life could be

With or without you

 

Colours of emotions are all vain

Betraying time took a howl

While I was trying it to be tame

Wondering was it all vain?

What my life could be

With or without you.

Still holding hand, feeling the warmth.

Still waiting, just once, only once for your smile

Still, still I stand still in that moment.

Still wish I could turn this wheel

Could steer it the way I feel

Can bring you back and snatch all the moment.

And wondering what my life could be

With or without you.
