Everything that is good is bad
Passion for anything makes the longing
Music is a tune that will only break your heart
So you won’t dance for your life
But you will dance the night away
Isn’t there enough drama in life already
The world’s a stage you don’t need one
Under a sky you wish was azure
Assure little street bird, one, two, three
Sleep is a stage full of no’s
Durjana echoes
