My Anthem!!!

Change of Seasons by Dream Theatre

I. The Crimson Sunrise(Instrumental)

II. Innocence I remember a time My frail, virgin mindwatched the crimson sunrise
Imagined what it might find Life was filled with wonder
I felt the warm wind blow I must explore the boundaries
Transcend the depth of winter's snow Innocence caressing me
I never felt so young before There was so much life in me
Still I longed to search for more But those days are gone now
Changed like a leaf on a tree Blown away forever into the cool autumn breeze
The snow has now fallenand my sun's not so bright I struggle to hold on
With the last of my might In my den of inequity viciousness and subtlety struggle
To ease the pain struggle to find the sane Ignorance surrounding me
I've never been so filled with fear All my life's been drained from me
The end is drawing near....

III. Carpe Diem'
Carpe diem, seize the day' I'll always remember
The chill of November The news of the fall
The sounds in the hall The clock on the wall ticking away
'Seize the Day' I heard him say Life will not always be this way
Look around Hear the sounds Cherish your life while you're still around
"Gather ye rosebuds while ye may, Old Time is still a-flying;
And this same flower that smiles today, Tomorrow will be dying."
We can learn from the past But those days are gone
We can hope for the future But there may not be one
The words stuck in my mindalive from what I've learned I have to seize the day
To home I returned Preparing for her flight
I held with all my might Fearing my deepest fright
She walked into the night She turned for one last look
She looked me in the eyeI said, 'I Love You...Good-bye'
"It's the most awful thing you'll ever hear." "If you're lying to me..."
"Oh, you dearly love her." "...just have to leave... all our lives."
"Seize the day!""Something happened."Gather ye rosebuds while ye may.""She was killed."

IV. The Darkest of Winters(Instrumental)

V. Another World
So far or so it seems All is lost with nothing fulfilled
Off the pages and a T.V. screen Another world where nothing's true
Tripping through the life fantastic Lose a step and never get up
Left alone with a cold blank stare I feel like giving up
I was blinded by a paradise Utopia high in the sky
A dream that only drowned me Deep in sorrow, wondering why
Oh come let us adore him Abuse and then ignore him
No matter what, don't let him be Let's feed upon his misery
Then string him up for all the world to see
I'm sick of all you hypocrites holding me at bay
And I don't need your sympathyto get me through the day
Seasons change and so can I
Hold on Boy, No time to cry
Untie these strings,
I'm climbing down
I won't let them push me away
Oh come let us adore him
Abuse and then ignore him
No matter what, don't let him be
Let's feed upon his misery
Now it's time for those to deal with me

VI. The Inevitable Summer(Instrumental)

VII. The Crimson Sunset
I'm much wiser now A lifetime of memoriesrun through my head
They taught me howfor better or worse, alive or dead I realize there's no turning back
Life goes on the offbeaten track I sit down with my sonSet to see the Crimson Sunset
(Gather ye rosebuds while ye may)Many years have come and gone
I've lived my life, but now must move on(Gather ye rosebuds while ye may)
He is my only one Now that my time has come
Now that my life is done We look into the sun'Seize the day and don't you cry,
Now it's time to say good-bye Even though I'll be gone,I will live on, live on.'

Eye of the Tiger!

This is one hell of cry of Sanity amidst all Madness....

Risin up
back on the street
did my time took my chances
went the distance now I'm back on my feet
just a man and his will to survive
so many times
it happens too fast
you trade your passion for glory
don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
you must fight just to keep them alive

It's the eye of the tiger
its the cream of the fight
risin up to the challenge of our rivals
and the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
and he's watching us all with the eye of the tiger

Face to face
out in the heat
hanging tough
stayin hungry
the stack the odds still we take to the street
for the kill with the skill to survive...

It's the eye of the tiger
its the cream of the fight
risin up to the challenge of our rivals
and the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
and he's watching us all with the eye of the tiger

Risin up
straight to the top
had the guts got the glory
went the distance now I'm not gonna stop
just a man and his will to survive

It's the eye of the tiger
its the cream of the fight
risin up to the challenge of our rivals
and the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
and he's watching us all with the eye of the tiger

The eye of the tiger......
The eye of the tiger......
The eye of the tiger......

The climate is ours to save!!!

The year of 2007 recorded the hottest summer in Bangaluru. The city ofGardens once known to have the best climate in the country is gradually giving in to the unstoppable phenomenon of Global Warming.

The whole city complaint of the heat all summer, there were discussions on how everyone should make an effort to stop the effects of global warming which would ultimately leave to disaster. Yet, somehow no one made an endeavor to start with self.

Very small things, which seem trivial, would make a huge difference of adopted by every single person. We have been hearing from ages, plant trees, stop use of plastic bags, and recycle. However, we have conveniently put them as topics for discussion forums and little or no action.

With concrete jungles it may be difficult to plant trees due to lack of space. Even a plant would not only add beauty to the décor of a house. It would also contribute in making the environment balanced.

If all stores just stopped providing plastic bags and come up with paper bags, which have been religious adopted by a lot of stores around the world. The use of plastic could be checked considerably.

Everyone loves gifting diaries and stationary of recycled paper. But no one really contributes to the whole process. A corporate firm for recycling paper and provide the products, to consumers all across the globe.

These are just a few thoughts…worth pondering over eh?
