lyrics

there is nothing but an emptiness
a blank sheet is more filled than this
don't know what - don't know where to seek

since days. since weeks.

all the words written umpteen times
all my thoughts have been taught to rhyme
there's a hole in between my ears

for 6 days? 6 weeks? 6 years?

how long
will this whole mess go on
will it swallow up
my head
like a vortex sucks a pup

shut up

a good word fills a sheet but not
this black hole right here since years
it wipes away all my ideas

how long
will this black hole grow on
will it swallow up
my head
like a vortex sucks a pup

how long
will this whole mess go on
will it swallow up
my head
like a vortex sucks a pup

how long
