this is right now

This song was started on mid autumns night, many a fridays ago, after a brilliant movie of a little girl and her family, and one of the most awake nights i spent at fort canning park.

the chorus deserves so much better verses. im still not satisfied with this version.. hmmm.


Mid autumn's Night
by Rishik V. Menon

and i said something..sometime back
along the lines..of "what the heck"
of "i dont care"..of what they think
am i way too rude.. am i out of sync
tuning up.. half three notes down
jotting down.. all the notes ive found...


moving in.. i find a stray
he's the one.. god gave away.
this room is dusty.. this room is gone.
these hills are alive.. from haze and song.
marvelling.. life's lack of stability
bordering..on mediocrity


bothering, so sweetly.


im begging for some life
in this mid-autumn's night
to take me anywhere. far away.
away from here.


im salvaging all my dreams
in this october somber scene
in the hope that ill get there. over there!
awaay~ From here!


looking forward.. to the day
cause it means.. nights not far away
looking back.. at my concrete dreams
feeling troubled..by what that means
taking time off.. for my green tea frappes
my barcadi breezers.. off like a trap...


whistling away.. snapping around
dodging at any.. administrative sound
diving deep.. into the grass
finding words.. which arnt too crass
finding me.. in this mess
painful to see.. ive so much less


less than i ever was.


im begging for some life
in this mid-autumn's night
to take me anywhere. far away.
away from here.


im slavaging all my dreams,
in this october sombre scene.
in the hope that ill get there. over there.
waay. away from here.


(Im embracing all this silence...)
im embracing all this sileeeencceee!!!!


and yea.. im begging for some life.. in this mid autumn's night.
take me anywhere. anyhere, away from here..
im salvaging all my dreams.. in this october sombre scene.
in the hope that ill get there, over there...yeaa... away from here...


away from here.
