I am dead
my heart aches
I feel no pain
All my love returns as vengeance
no one knows me, nobody cares
The streets of love, deserted they are
The air is dead,there is no rain
I am thirsty for a drop of love
running after a mirage in the desert sands
Gone are the soft petals,the red roses
I trot through dead cactus, carcass and thorns
Somewhere far away lies an ocean of love
of warmth, of care; no despair
I will die one day in this heat and desolation
I am dead now, I will be dead then
my heart aches
I feel no pain
The Shooting star
The Shooting Star
It was dark inside and the audience was quite
May be there wasn’t an audience at all
Some were sleeping, others reading
I gazed aimlessly
Through the plastic window by my side
The vast emptiness of the stage outside
Lit it was, with countless stars
Hanging in there, on an invisible thread
Never vacillating, ever glowing
There were flashes all across the horizon
A storm must be brewing in the clouds below
The sky glowed like Bellagio’s fountain show
It was one beautiful sight
The stars stood there still
Was I even moving? Was it a paradox?
Awestruck I was with such mysterious thoughts.
It was then that I saw the most beautiful thing of all
‘A shooting star’ that sank into the flashes of lightning below
On a star-studded Spring night
36000 ft above the ground
through the plastic window by my side,
Flying back home to Dallas that night
It was one beautiful sight.
No One knows Who I am
No One Knows Who I Am
from the musical "Jekyll & Hyde"
Music by Frank Wildhorn, Lyrics by Leslie Bricusse
Look at me and tell me who I am,
Why I am - what I am.
Call me a fool and it's true - I am.
I don't know who I am.
It's such a shame,
I'm such a sham.
No one knows who I am.
Once there were sweet possibilities
I could see, just for me.
Now all my dreams are just memories,
Fated never to be.
Time's not a friend,
Hurrying by.
I wonder - who am I?
Am I the face of the future?
Am I the face of the past?
Am I the one who must finish last?
Look at me and tell me who I am,
Why I am - what I am.
Will I survive?
Who will give a damn
If no one knows who I am?
Nobody knows,
Not even you.
No one knows who I am.
