walking on the street
in a pair of beaten jeans
carrying a wounded heart
dragging ma acoustic
leaving a line of pain
all along the way
this night i am again alone
in the corner, cold and damned
tapping ma feet
to the tune of ma fingers
playing on the biting strings
waiting for a cut
the angels and the dumb
they giggle and smile
i am the rockstar
who cant take a heart away
i am a rockstar
i got no song to play
a rockstar
fadin away
like a comet
never to return again
there was this angel
with a sweetest smile
she must have broken many hearts
she broke mine
all night long thinking of her
i went far, i lost my way
every night i am alone
in the corner, cold and damned
tapping ma feet
to the tune of ma fingers
playing on the biting strings
waiting for a cut
the angels and the dumb
giggle and smile
i am the rockstar
who cant take a heart away
i am a rockstar
i got no song to play
a rockstar
fadin away
like a comet
never to return again
Lyrics written for the band 'Cold And Dead' by Raghav Kandubai.

To you I come
left to myself in this castle
i am going mad without you
worn and shorn of love
my heart is burning
i am in flames
it feels so insane
far away beyond the oceans
there is a message to be delivered
to you i come,
with all i got
with things you forgot
i hope your love still lasts
you a little bird
fly away one day,
leaving a promise you would wait
nothing stays forever
like bubbles things burst apart
and there's no turning back
far away beyond the oceans
there is a message to be delivered
to you i come,
with all i got
with things you forgot
i hope your love still lasts
i am going mad without you
worn and shorn of love
my heart is burning
i am in flames
it feels so insane
far away beyond the oceans
there is a message to be delivered
to you i come,
with all i got
with things you forgot
i hope your love still lasts
you a little bird
fly away one day,
leaving a promise you would wait
nothing stays forever
like bubbles things burst apart
and there's no turning back
far away beyond the oceans
there is a message to be delivered
to you i come,
with all i got
with things you forgot
i hope your love still lasts

love tonight with you
love tonight with you
it feels so right
to turn back at the end of a street
looking at you looking at me
running back to you
to meet you half way in between
taking you back home
making you lie beside me
like every night
love tonight with you
it feels so right
love with you
it feels so right
to feel the touch of your fingers
slicing through ma skin
I am losing count of pleasures
that you heaping onto me
the warm shower of your kisses
stirring up the heat
like every night
love tonight with you
it feels so right
it feels so right
to turn back at the end of a street
looking at you looking at me
running back to you
to meet you half way in between
taking you back home
making you lie beside me
like every night
love tonight with you
it feels so right
love with you
it feels so right
to feel the touch of your fingers
slicing through ma skin
I am losing count of pleasures
that you heaping onto me
the warm shower of your kisses
stirring up the heat
like every night
love tonight with you
it feels so right

It was like heaven
when you don't know
what you want
when you don't mean
what you say
when you are misunderstood
and told on by your neighbourhood
when that girl giggles
when no one sees
and she takes you
to that secret place
behind the club house
when no ones there
and tells you things
no one knows
Back in those days
i had a girl in my arms
telling me
it was like heaven
yeh, yeh, yeh,
it was like heaven.
i had a girl
telling me
it was like heaven.
walking down the streets
of those years
when i was young
when i carried that maiden's hand
shifting without a purpose
with a desire to be quenched
the longing of those lovely years
to be spent, to be done
to be left in a mess
oh, if given a chance
i wanna be back there
place and time
doing all the things
that don't make sense
for in my arms
i had a girl
telling me
it was like heaven
yeh, yeh, yeh,
it was like heaven.
i had a girl
telling me
it was heaven.
what you want
when you don't mean
what you say
when you are misunderstood
and told on by your neighbourhood
when that girl giggles
when no one sees
and she takes you
to that secret place
behind the club house
when no ones there
and tells you things
no one knows
Back in those days

telling me

yeh, yeh, yeh,
it was like heaven.
i had a girl

it was like heaven.

can’t do anything at all
Honey I can't work
I can't do anything at all
when you left me baby
you took my life away
they say I am gone mad
they won't let me stay
and from memories of you
they say, I must move away
Sometimes I feel
why don't I just fall down and die
without you baby
I can’t do anything at all
I can't do anything at all
when you left me baby
you took my life away
they say I am gone mad
they won't let me stay
and from memories of you
they say, I must move away
Sometimes I feel
why don't I just fall down and die
without you baby
I can’t do anything at all

wounded and left for dead
wounded and left for dead
laid crumpled
in the midst of nowhere
a pool filled up
with my blood
the rain, like needles
pricking ma face
lord, thy name i take
when the mist blinds
and the devil comes
to spike my heart
lord thy name i take
take me away
i don't wanna see
the vulture's face
i am cryin'
they are tears on ma face
but you wouldn't see
the pain that you have left
lost in sorrow
left in the ditch
no one there to hold my hand
lord, thy name i take
when the dark death crawls
and i wait thinking
of the better days
lord thy name i take
take me away
is this what You wanted
i am fadin' away
laid crumpled
in the midst of nowhere
a pool filled up
with my blood
the rain, like needles
pricking ma face
lord, thy name i take
when the mist blinds
and the devil comes
to spike my heart
lord thy name i take
take me away
i don't wanna see
the vulture's face
i am cryin'
they are tears on ma face
but you wouldn't see
the pain that you have left
lost in sorrow
left in the ditch
no one there to hold my hand
lord, thy name i take
when the dark death crawls
and i wait thinking
of the better days
lord thy name i take
take me away
is this what You wanted
i am fadin' away

tears flood the path
coming down your stairs
into blinding rain
told not to return
by someone there
no sense of guilt
or pain in your eyes
i was standing there
as if i were someone else
tears flood the path
in the blinding rain
i cant see
where i am going now
i don't wanna know,
i don't care
i got to run..
run away from you now
what have i done
to be taken apart
i always thought
we were going fine
I should have known,
opened my eyes
you were someone's gal
before you were mine
tears flood the path
in the blinding rain
i cant see
where i am going now
i don't give a damn,
i don't care
i got to run..
run away from you now
into blinding rain
told not to return
by someone there
no sense of guilt
or pain in your eyes
i was standing there
as if i were someone else
tears flood the path
in the blinding rain
i cant see
where i am going now
i don't wanna know,
i don't care
i got to run..
run away from you now
what have i done
to be taken apart
i always thought
we were going fine
I should have known,
opened my eyes
you were someone's gal
before you were mine
tears flood the path
in the blinding rain
i cant see
where i am going now
i don't give a damn,
i don't care
i got to run..
run away from you now

Thunder road
smell of tar
burning, left far behind
like a flash, like a silver bolt
wind blowing, raising the sand
me and my girl
we are going down thunder road.
got to see where we go
got two notes, fuel broke
my girl has in her purse
a pink kerchief, wet from leaking nose
trembling wild
we are going down thunder road.
men coming with axe and sword
when they find me I am going down
their girl i pluck and steal
cry foul these dummies
thunder road,
thunder road,
we are going down thunder road
we don't know where we go
we are going down thunder road.
burning, left far behind
like a flash, like a silver bolt
wind blowing, raising the sand
me and my girl
we are going down thunder road.
got to see where we go
got two notes, fuel broke
my girl has in her purse
a pink kerchief, wet from leaking nose
trembling wild
we are going down thunder road.
men coming with axe and sword
when they find me I am going down
their girl i pluck and steal
cry foul these dummies
thunder road,
thunder road,
we are going down thunder road
we don't know where we go
we are going down thunder road.

My love isn't a lie
She says my love isn't true
I got a girl in my mind
and when I come home so late
I come from from that girl of mine.
I will never forget
the taste of your lips
I knock on your door
for a sip of your wine
My love isn't a lie
it isn't an answer
it flows from my heart
its leaving me dead
its all that I ever wanted
its all that I need
its more than the somethings
its more than you can feel...
My love isn't a lie!
She says my love isn't good
I am not doing what I should
and when I am lost in her deceit
she says I lost that touch of mine
I will never forget
the day of my death
the day you came out
the door of some guy.
my love isn't a lie
it doesn't need an answer
it flows from my heart
I am bleeding to death
its all that I ever wanted
its all that I dreamed
its more than the somethings...
its more than you can feel
My love can never die!

Give me something more than love
Do u feel this pain?
you don't seem to understand
you want some more fun
love talk and splendid time
oh, please do understand
this is not what i want
i feel stifled and gorged
don't feel like lifting the call
oh! no, no! give me time
give me space
hear me out what i have to say
my feelings, they are so many to share
i feel lost like never before
what i want is some time to think
all i want is some time to rest
for i am tired and broken down
please give me some thing more than love.
have u ever felt this way before
like he would never understand
he talks when he has to listen
and he drones on and on
you feel lost
his voice hits a dead wall in between
and vast chasms grow into the heart and mind
leaving the soul to rust
you feel like screaming
he drives you far far away
i feel the strain
i feel my nerves on end
trying to hold afloat
to not to lose control
always on the edge and mad
yeah, your love is great
Baby, now give me some thing more than love.
