These feelings I feel are like an attack
Excluded from living life wondering what I lack
What do I say when I am always told I am to blame?
Exiled to silence in search of some kindness
As my mind is lost to the wilderness
Where can I find any friends?
Hearing the call with no voices
On a path with no choices
To a destination that is of my own creation
Exiled to silence in search of some forgiveness
Feeling the blame for every mess
Where is the end to all this mental stress?
Alone in this silence, why am I so different?
Living in mental shame hiding is no longer a game
It is a means to avoid negative criticism
Exiled to silence in search of some peace
In the king’s garden, I nap in the swing
To feel my mind, relax so free
I dream of India\'s night sky with a moon so bright
Were Prakashmani reflection can be seen
That is where I wish I could be
