away

Band: Siddhartha
Song: People (samesame: differentdifferent)

Sometimes I wish
bad people would look different
but sadly they all look just like…. us

Sometimes I wonder
why good things were not foretold?
but sadly only bad things are …… reminded

Sometimes I dream
of all souls set free
but sadly in chains they learn to live….and to grieve

I don’t want to hear of sick happenings
But I am forced to.
They follow me.

I don’t want to see someone suffering.
But I have to go through the same.
It has been in me.
 

Sometimes I try
to play a happy sound.
but sadly my sounds are …..out of tune


Sometimes I try
to dream of happiness
but sadly all my dreams are about…our world, our world.........

People (SSDD)

Taken from a documentary movie called "The day my god died".

The documentary is about girls who are sold in India for prostitution.

Lyrics:
jan 12, 2013

the day my god died 
only misery was there
to listen to my…. sore cries
 the moment my fate was (lied)
when abused by inhumanity
hope of life ……
rarely survives.

 Why o why my tears are so dry
 the only ones that urged me to fly
 (Why o why would they ever deny 
Why have all my tears gone dry)
 
The hellhole I was shoved into
 I sometimes expected it to strangle me to death
 The brothel I was brought to
by all so called my closest friends
 I wonder the world would be a better place
 if those people had not existed

Why o why my tears have all gone
Where/why o why my tears have all gone
Dry
Why…tara baaji lai lai mama aye ghodaa
WHYY

tara baaji lai lai (humming)

Lyrics:

Sometimes I wish bad people would look different.
But sadly they all look just like us.
Sometimes I wonder why good things were not foretold.
But sadly only bad things are reminded.
Sometimes I dream of all souls set free.
But sadly in chains they learn to live
And to grieve

I don't want to hear of sick happenings
But I am forced to, they follow me.
I don't want to see someone suffering.
I have to go through the same, it has been in me.

Sometimes I try to play a happy sound.
But sadly all my sounds are out of tune.
Sometimes I dream of happiness
But sadly all my dreams are about our world.

PEOPLE (demo)

Lyrics:
people come and people go
accompanying each other to reach the flow
but with time some shrink and some grow
I LIVE MY MOMENTS THE BEST WAY I KNOW

People roll and people scroll
seconds and years to beat the flow
I like to work with their disguised rolls
for what is what 
the known does know

"Culture is not your friend"
It is often said that "mind can not be imprisoned" but it appears that culture does the job very well. Culture seems to manufacture itself for its own preservation through minds. And to do so it limits the expansion of a mind that is vaster than space; limited to beliefs and hopes.
Set yourself free of pride, values, expectations and beliefs that were constructed before your existence and see the world again.
Things will make sense. They might appear as tragic and chaotic but you will be able to face it without ignorance and despair, but with awareness and humility.

CULTURE, IS NOT MY FRIEND!!
CULTURE, IT NOT YOUR FRIEND!!


do you feel
whatI feel
do you see
what I see
do you feel
what I feel
do you see
what I see

CULTURE, NOT A FRIEND (demo)

Song - Paralysis, to wake up into death.
Band - Siddhartha

(Voices)
Spirit: Speak to yourself, your voices shall see you freed.
Fear: Come to me, your soul is mine indeed.
Hope: Let go the wires, strangling your feet.
Love: Let flow the tears, frozen beneath.

(Phase - Presleep)
It's hard to read all my scars
"You're a broken frame"
It's not to win nor to fail
"Just play the game"

I'm running up a hill
with my knees confined
An obligation
A problem in solution

(Poem - French. Followed by English translation)
Lorsqu'aspirer et rêver n'est plus qu'un regard vide et triste,
Coincé dans cet état absent...
Où seul la douleur et le désespoir existent,
Où pas même un seul rayon de lumière n'est présent

Inexistante, la couleur.
Les croyances, non apprises.
Devant confronter ses peurs,
Tandis que chaque instant n'a qu'une seule tentative permise
Dream of only stares
Trapped in this realm
Of pain and despair
Of light not a beam

The colour is none
Beliefs not learnt
Fears to confront
Time seen burnt

(Singing)
I'm running up a hill
with my knees confined
An obligation
A problem in solution


(Poem- in Roman followed by Devnagari - ain’t nobody got time to think in English here.)
Samaya le ghaati nimothdai
Hashyaang ra fashyaang ko bhumarimaa
Chaldainan meraa khuttaaharu
Traasko yo dalldallmaa ma bhaasidai, ma haraaudai

dhamilo chha bikalpa
adrishya saaraa sankalpaharu
dristimaa kewal yo……
chhaina dristi, maatra chha ghaatley bhariyeko yo sapanaa
..Sapanaako yo daldalmaa
ma bhaasidai ma gaadidai
Bhaya ko yo chakrabhiumaa
Ma haraaudai ma karaaudai
Kaal sangako yo milanmaa
Ma maasidai ma suikaaridai


समयले घाटी निमोठ्दै,
हस्याङ्ग र फस्याङ्गको भुमरीमा;
चल्दैनन् मेरा खुट्टाहरु।
त्रासको यो दलदलमा,
…..म भासिदै, आफैमा हराउँदै 

धमिला छन् विकल्पहरु,
अदृश्य सारा संकल्पहरु,
दृष्टिमा केवल घात मात्र।
यो सपनाको म 'अनमोल' पात्र।

सपनाको यो दलदलमा
म भासिदै, म गाडिदै
भयको यो चक्रव्यूहमा
म हराउँदै, म कराउँदै
कालसंगको यो मिलनमा 
म मासिदै, म स्विकारिदै....


(Poem - German: Followed by English translation)
Täglich träume ich
und sterbe in meinen Träumen,
täglich schreie ich,
bevor ich im Schlaf versinke 

Beim täglichen Erwachen
fühle ich die Atemnot,
Sobald der Schlaf mich holt,
erwache ich im Tod.'

Everyday I dream
and I die in my dreams
Everyday I scream

I scream before falling into sleep
Every time I wake up
I am running out of breath
The moment I fall asleep
is when I wake up into death


(Phase - Sleep)
I can't sleep
the toss and turn is deep
the abyss waits for me
to show me all my guilts

I see dreams
almost every night
Visiting different realms
I often get into a fight

(Phase - Sleep and/or post-sleep)
I see poverty in humanity
I see poverty in humanity
I often get stuck into unbearable monstrosity

In my dreams
I often witness pain
I try to get out of it
I always wake up in vain

I see humanity in insanity
I see humanity in insanity
I only wake up into unbearable monstrosity


Poem - Lullaby 
(OUTRO)

My child,
how did all this come to you?
all the sorrow , guilt and shame
How has all this become of you?
Would it help if I share the blame?

O' sleep O' sleep O' please reach my child
Take him with you to a place to hide

Had I known of all your fears.
I would’ve had dropped with endless tears.

The circle of sorrow would
rather dance on me.
Because the sky of hope
only grows to be.

Heart skips beat when your eyes blink
With every night and light you ditch

My consciousness lives when you're asleep
Anxiety swells & I cannot breathe

Let flow the tears
absolve your chest
Your journey resumes
but you must now rest
