Here I am under Your spell tonight,
Scared of crawling out of my shell tonight.
I prayed to You, out of belief or habit,
I know not, but on my knees I fell tonight.
As I hear the azaan, I convince myself,
That someone listens to me yell tonight.
Merely listening yet again, doing nothing,
Why won't you douse this fire of hell tonight?
Don't get me wrong, I count all the blessings,
I just can't breathe in this blasphemous cell tonight.
Is there anyone to thank, or is no one out there,
I restlessly continue to dwell tonight.
I struggle to breathe amongst all this loneliness,
I just might sound the knell tonight.
Are You a mere figment of my imagination,
Or do I question just to rebel tonight.
You should make me feel safe, but You just don't
Anymore, so I, Sadaf, bid Thee farewell tonight.
Anymore, so I, Sadaf, bid Thee farewell tonight.
Wow, I really like how this reminds me a lot of the album The Bends by Radiohead for some reason.
