You and I

They say the times were peaceful and kind
and all was going well with mankind,
they say that the winds were purer then
they say that the songs were sweeter then.
But for all I care, why should I cry,
cause you have lived, and so have I.

They say that the Gods were more forgiving,
and Mother Nature was happily living
they say that the flowers were brighter then
they say that the waters were bluer then.
But for all I care, why should I cry,
cause you have lived, and so have I.


They say that the times are now watching with silence
and people are busy with crap and violence,
they say that the trees are shadier now
they say that the sands are cooler now.
It may be true or it may be a lie,
but you are living and so am I.

They say that the Gods are now indifferent and vague,
and Mother Nature is trying to stop the plague
they say that the grass is drier now
they say that the skies are greyer now.
It may be true or it may be a lie,
but you are living and so am I.


They say that the times will be harsh and untamed
and everyone will realize that all are to be blamed,
they say that the pyres will extinguish by then
they say that the leaves will die by then
And then again, even we may die,
but atleast in stories or in poems, you will live and so will I.

They say that the Gods will show their wrath,
and Mother Nature will be lost in her path
they say that you will freeze by then
they say that I will burn by then.
but atleast in dreams or up in the sky
you will live and so will I.
