Old Man

(Sherab Lhamo)

Old man is about letting go and saying goodbye to someone you love, as they leave to live a different life. One in which there is no room for you.

Between the lines  
And the sentences  
You lost me at goodbye  
 
Every word that you spoke  
Loud with your decision to let go  
I almost cried  
 
More than once 
Definitely more than twice  
 
Cause it’s sad  
Thinking back  
Looking at how it was  
Now there’s nothing to see 
No you 
Just me  
 
I won’t stop you  
Though it will be hard to see you go  
So I might not come say bye  
How difficult it would be  
To see someone that you XXXX XXXXX  
XXXXXXXXX XXXXXX XXXX XXXX  
 
X XXXXXX XXXXX  
XXXX XXXX XXXX 
XXXXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXX  
 
XXXXX XXXXXX XXX  
XXXXXXXX XXXX  
XXXXXXX XX XXXX XX XXXXX XXXX XXXX  
XXX XXXXXXXXX XXXXXXX XX XXX 
XX XXX 
XXXX XX

I danced for you

By Sherab Lhamo

Life is a play and each of us have a role. Much like a movie, there is a begging, a middle and an end. The end brings about goodbye for characters that we fall in love with at some point.

By your side

By Sherab Lhamo

A song about someone who loves another contrary to what that person does or say. Contrary to what the world makes of it, knowing it will end one day, still chooses to stay.

Clarity

By Sherab Lhamo

When you are fully aware that someone has had a change of heart and a change of partner but you’re unable to let go of that person even though it’s clear that you have to.

View lyric

A song where love is compared to a seed that is planted by two lovers. When the right conditions are met it blooms. Even a little bit of care saves it from the brink of death. However though with time and no effort and external hardships and internal disputes, the plant is neglected, rejected and thus dies.

Sniper

By Stanley Chris

The song is a creative look at physical intimacy. The persona is generally a shy character with a lithe physique and is miles away from being athletic. That notwithstanding, he/she is determined to prove that appearances can be deceptive by giving an unexpected performance, a fantasy the person has had for a long time. Line 3 of Verse 1 suggests that the character has a wild side that the partner does not really know about. Verse 2 in its entirety preludes the intense drama expected to ensue that is further amplified in the lyrics of the Chorus. Line 2 of the Chorus is however a subtle assurance to the partner that they will be safe and should not have any fears about the "threat" the other is breathing out, and creates an atmosphere of honest expression of affection. The bridge has two parts, the first two lines capturing the actual activity of the night, which the third and fourth lines of Verse 2 hint will go on till late in the night by employing exaggeration as a tool, and the last two lines talk about the breaks they will have in-between all the "fighting" that will be going on.
