The Lord of Saturn

I wrote this song sometime during February. Had a clear idea in mind about the theme of the song. I wished to tell a story... a story of souls! So here it is...

The shadow of Saturn
Falls on you
The Lord of Saturn
Is stalking you

He commands the beast in you
Dread the path it leads you through
Fight a war with the beast within
Fight a war that you must win!

No peace, no sleep
Not a dime to keep
No love, no fame
In this bitter game

The shadow of Saturn
Falls on you
The Lord of Saturn
Is stalking you


Brace the lord, brace the Lord of Lore
Brace the lord, brace the Lord of Soul
Brace the lord, brace the Lord of Zeal
Brace the lord, brace the Lord of Strength

The peace you seek
Is the fruit you'll reap
Your love, your fame
Will be yours in time

The shadow of Saturn
Falls on you
The Lord of Saturn
Is stalking you


I am working on the composition of this song. I have completed recording the first stanza and I am hoping to finish the song as soon as possible. Will keep you posted on the progress :)

The Making of Laya

The Idea Ideas for musical scores, songs or themes come to me randomly. Sometimes, I get inspired by a situation or works from other artists. The idea for this composition ( read full article and listen to the composition here ) came as a ‘need’ to compose a fusion track. I am still in the process of discovering my sound and experimenting is the only way to achieve it. Hence it makes perfect sense, at this point of time, to experiment with every genre of music under the sun! So fusion it is… this time! Every composition has a ‘hook’ that grabs the listeners’ attention. "A hook is a musical idea, often a short riff, passage, or phrase that is used in popular music to make a song appealing and to "catch the ear of the listener" - Wikipedia. In this composition, strangely though, I see two hooks (in my head). The first hook ‘came’ to me when I was experimenting with the samples in my new “Sounds of India” audio sample CD I recently bought. I was playing some tunes on India...

Waiting For The Dawn

Dark is the night Dark are my dreams I can't see how I can mend my wounded soul My frantic search for peace My burning thirst for love I am lost in this maze Is hate the only way out? I need a ray of hope I need a sense of calm I am waiting for a new day I am waiting for the dawn I walk in the wake Of my broken fate Deceived, disgraced Disturbed, disfigured I am at the crossroad I dread making a choice I wish my fate could unfold Like my feelings; quote, unquote I need a ray of hope I need a sense of calm I am waiting for a new day I am waiting for the dawn I don't know why I feel I am destined to fail For every time I fail, I feel My passion to triumph prevail The peace I am longing for Is so near, yet so far Hell yeah I am potent 'n tough To chase my fate far enough Bygone are the dark cold nights I feel invincible again Yet, here I am, in flesh and blood To face a new day 'n to fail again!
