Burning Bridges: One Republic (Acoustic)

You Rise in love, you rise so high that you lose the sight of all mere earthly creatures. You crave and long for this heavenly feeling. And u better bet your ass that you don’t fall from there. Cause the higher you rise, crazier you fall. Breaking every bone in your body, scaring you to ever rise again. The next time you get a moment to rise again, you start building bridges so that even if you fall you won’t hit the rock bottom. You just fall to the next bridge you built, you save yourself from the mighty fall you had. Now you are fallen but not broken. You are safe. You are not hurt.

When you think back, you will realize one thing. You were so busy in planning retreat plans and building bridges that you never reached higher.  You were so afraid to lose yourself that you never let go of yourself. You were so afraid of rising that you never started climbing.
This song reminds of these feelings,

“I, I keep on running
I’m building bridges that I know you never wanted”

Now there is one moment you know that this is the one, but your body don’t let go of the ground. You can’t let go of the fear you have,

“You and I were meant to be
Ain't no doubt about it
No way to hide that sort of thing
Now I’m waiting for something better
Ain't nothing better worth imagining”

You wana take it further, but your mind has evolved, it will never stop building bridges. It will never stop retreating. So no way left other than, let the other one know. This other one is the all-strong, all-possible self. Only He/She can make you dive in the deep ocean without thinking twice. There is MOKSHA in the dive. There is NIRVANA in rising.

“Look for my heart
You stole it away
Now on every single road that I could take
Listen, I want you to burn my bridges down
I said, I want you to burn my bridges down
Set me on Fire
You set me
Set me on Fire
You can burn my bridges down”

LET GO OF YOURSELF.

GO CRAZY!

Day 1 : 9/15 (Monday Blues)

A vibrating sensation filled my body, I opened my eyes like a weightlifter tries to go beyond the limit. After getting used to the light in the room, I was falling asleep again. A loud noise and vibration pulled me away from the sugary sleep. My phone was ringing, yes it was from my Cab driver. Smells like Monday. Ahhh. Hate Mondays (*especially if they are along with Hangovers).

Monday was in the air, Sunny outside, Dry heat, Fan was off(Who the fuck did that). I tried my best and got up from the bed. pushed my self to the wash room. When i was a little bit lighter and fresh, I knew that the cold water on my ass will wake me the fuck up. I pressed the nozzle, and it screamed out like a dog in pain. threw some air and died. NO WATER. Damn!!
Well thanks to my carelessness, I kept the tap open, and it emptied the whole tank, but it also filled one bucket under the tap. So I just did some exercise with the Mug and water. Finally succeeding in wiping myself up. I realized, It's gonna be a hell long day. Anyway wasn't in mood for brush or bath as I knew how I used the water in that bucket. Fuck it.

In search of Formals went in the balcony scratching my ass. Shitt! they are not yet dry. Grabbed a shirt and pants. Took the iron. Fuck Shirt. Ironed the Pant. put the sweater ON, which will hide the not so ironed shirt. Damn you Cab driver, he keeps on calling me!

Now I am like a crazy Ninja! Flowing through daily things like air. Doing Multi tasking and shitt.
Got ready in 10 mins. Run for Cab now. After reaching the pick up point, there was No Cab! I dialed him, he laughed and said like an Ass "Sir, Do min me aya". Asshole!

Scorching Heat was burning me up and the sweater was adding microwave kinda atmosphere. Put my Headphones on, "Carry on" Started to Sooth me up.
'You swore and said, "We are not, we are not shining stars." This I know, I never said we are.'
The break up I had few days back struck my heart, pain is back. Change the song!

Meanwhile Cab came, sat in d seat besides Driver, and took charge of the music system. Was playing some songs. Not in the mood to cheer things up, songs changed from "Dil dhadakane do - ZNMD" to "Mera Kuch Saman - Ijaajat". I let myself drown in the music and brilliant lyrics from Gulzar. When I opened my eyes, we were about to reach the office.

Constant hammering in my head. Fuck, Never drink on Sundays. Noted down in my mind.

Long day Ahead!
