You tick through every question I had
A measured voice, precise,
never mad
Your words align like gears in time
Each one a reason, each one a rhyme
I waited for the fault to show
The * behind the perfect flow
But every answer that you gave Felt like a key that couldn't say
I tried to break the pattern you made
But the clock ran on and I stayed
Your perfect clockwork answer A line that dances but won't falter
If it's too clean,
if it's too right A shadow burning in the night
I wanted chaos,
haunted fire But you gave me order sharp and dire
Your change is not a big deal
But what I did to you, I lost for sure
Our destination was still far away
You lost to me only after a few steps
Salam Shariko!
Aankhe khuli ki khuli rahi gayi,
moo band ke band rahi gayi
Jo mujhe ghirane te chakron mein te,
woh tang ke dang rahi gayi
Mujhe mitane wale mita na sake,
us rab ne aise pehchaan bana di
Baaki rab achay te sab achay,
khoshi rao
Apne baare mein toh,
na khud nahi jaanta
Aur tum daawa karte ho,
ke meri rag rag se waqif ho
At home in the sky
Maybe love isn't meant to be solved Maybe hearts are meant to evolve
But you kept rhythm,
I couldn't bend A pulse,
a rule without an end
And still I linger in the gears Tracing your voice
through all my years
Your perfect clockwork answer A line that dances but won't falter
If it's too clean,
if it's too right A shadow burning in the night
I wanted chaos,
I wanted fire But you gave me order,
shop and die
Your perfect clockwork answer Will echo as my lost desire
