WORDS!! shadeS O'words..




" Load up " c. 1997

this one's about sex, and it came along, like it should've. In the heat of the moment. We'll tell you how.

" But it Rained " c. 1996

a sensitive one here. Kashmir, the kidnappings. this is about the one's left at home...alone, and it rained.

" Till I'm No one Again " c. 1995

their first single release, was amongst thirteen other songs, chosen from demo's sent by a hundred and fifty bands in this country. This release, titled The Great Indian Rock, carries the first momentous notes from the rock and roll clan, this side of Milky Way.

" Open Skies " c. 1995

these come, surprisingly from the twangy thing of our dear " Sad man ". a song about a nice day, this one. and Nitin doesn't sing this one. nor do the rest. actually no one does, they all listen.

" Gonna Get it " c. 1993

no frills, no fuss. plain driving rock 'n roll.

" Xerox " c. 1991

now this is a special one. so special, we don't even play it for just anybody. it's the first we ever wrote. and it's, obviously, about the rock'n roll dream. dream on.


THE REST OF'EM SONGS SHALL FOLLOW SOON. SO BE AROUND!!






TILL I'M NO ONE AGAIN

! ! H E A R A B L E . . . O N L I N E ! !


She wonders like a little child, who hasn't seen the rain,
gently will she tell you that she's scared.
A lonely child, a bird of sorrow,
is all she can see,
'cause people came and changed her as she pleased.


She doesn't laugh, knows not to cry, indifference is her name, sleeps quietly in some corner of her world. She'd wake up in the morning and then she'd kiss the flowers again, sometimes thinks of people, who're not the same.

** Lying to yourself, you know she'll fly away, if only you knew what's right, you'd walk away... ...No ...till i'm no one again...

And all the things I think I did, to make her smile again, worked a little while then disappeared. But still I'll try to catch her eye, and tell her that I care, wonder if she even knows that I'm there?

**...

Await the light, enmbrace the darkness and scream out to the sky, watching life pass before me, And the world I have inside, I've seen the world, lived it all, Seen it thru' my eyes, The blinding shades of laughter, I can see here as I lie, As here I lie......
.......HERE I'M NO ONE AGAIN

BUT IT RAINED


Wrapped in a polythene, tucked away safe in my mind,
a little goodbye, maybe, or just a passing smile,
the clouds are all beside me to see me through all the good times,
maybe he'll come back again, make up for the forsaken time.
The birds fly away to the sky still searching for home,
a bunch o' paper flowers, or a little child left all alone.
Can somebody hear me, I'm screaming from so far away
morning who'll calm you, the evening's eclipsed again.


*Well does life get any better
more yesterday than today, 
How I thought the sun would shine tommorow,
But it rained...
They justified the cause for which Daddy might give up his life,
it's been so long, so long a time but still I miss Daddy at night.
The ache is long gone but the never keeps staring at me,
the waters in the seas are high, and all the sand castles have drowned.

OPEN SKIES


Well, this one actually is an instrumental, presented by our very own Sharat, of the violin fame. This breezy track is undeniably an ode to a good day. To a bright, warm, breezy, cool, feelin'-good-kinda-day. youknowwhatimean....??

da...dadee da da.... :~)

GONNA GET IT


You can hide away from the devil
you can find a way to chose,
you can keep your senses ticking
but it aint so hard to lose.
Quietly throttle up my senses
recruits the sleeping mind,
playing games with the game cold hearted
and things I've left behind.

You've got to hold on to somethings from a thousand years,
A million houses burning to give me pain and the taste of fear.
* GONNA GET IT YOU GONNA GET IT ...........
Here in the softness of salvation
somewhwere I lost my pride,
close my eyes and see the world within and
open to a hopeful mind
I've been watching in the pages of history
people getting away with crime,
Innocence is lost in a moment
not in passage of time.
You've got to hold on to somethings from a thousand years...
* GONNA GET IT YOU GONNA GET IT ....
When that something started going I had no one by myself....
* GONNA GET IT YOU GONNA GET IT ....

GET THE FEEL OF THE ELECTRIC GUITAR AND PLAY IT ALL NIGHT TEN THOUSANDS WATTS OF AMPLIFICATION SWITCH ON THE OVERDRIVE
