DEAD OR ALIVE

if you can't feel the need of time

if you are stuck with yours and mine

if you think to pull others

is the key to survive

trust me you are no good

dead or alive

when you see a bird in cage

and don't feel like setting it free

when you see the smoke covered city

and don't feel like to plant a tree

when you see money only

taking you up the sky

trust me you are no good

dead or alive

you turn eyes away

from the baby crying on the way

and you live only for some people

who may give you something someday

and they are the only one you wish gud in your prayers

and when you can count your good deeds 1,2,3,4 or 5

trust me you are no good

dead or alive

you can use your words to impress or to hurt

but can't judge them on your feelings before you say

when a gain becomes the only base you got

to wave someone a smiling hi or hey

you center only you for every prayer in your life

trust me you are no good

dead or alive

you offer prayers daily in front of god

but never offer affection to nature he made

you cloud your mind with caste and creed

though you know one day its all gonna fade

even to yourself you dont hesitate to lie

trust me you are no good

dead or alive.
