Life In Oblivion!!



We're living our life in peace
Killing our time with utmost ease
     Running for treasures
     Chasing material pleasures
Dreaming with eyes wide open
Unaware, and thus having the fun
     Blinded by the flash light of carnal desires
     Burning our souls in hedonistic fires


   We're living in peace
   We're living in oblivion...


The life here is like still waters
Covered with a crust of ignorance
     Never shaken, never stirred
     The vision of this society is getting blurred
All of us are sitting idle
Waiting for the rain to agitate this puddle
     And with the passage of time
     I find myself sinking further into this urbane slime


   Still we think..

   We're living in peace
   We're living in oblivion...


I raise a voice
In this subdued silence
     Threw a pebble into the still water
     Hoping for a rebellion to make life better
This world is growing inane
We're struggling, and still living in vain
     I longed to see the transformation
     I waited & I cried for the resurrection


   Are we living in peace??
   Or are we dying in oblivion???
