I wish I could

I saw Heroes come n go
When n where they show up, u never know

But then i realise that they had never been on this earth
Superstars have always been just a myth

It was then very late at night
When i was returning after the show of The Dark Knight

Outside the theatre i see
A Little kid who can't even shout out "Help Me !"
Lyin on the road with an empty bottle of milk by his side
Where most of the city was enjoying the late night ride

Then there were a couple of kids asking me for alms
With their pleading eyes while spreadin out their bruised palms

I reach my home with a couple of cans of beer
I got online and spoke to my dear

She didn't stop me but told me to let it out
I finished my drink and I just wanted to shout

Then thinking of the whole thing, I cried a lot that night
I felt like I'm trapped in a dark room though it was actually so bright

I asked myself why so much of suffering in this world
I look up to the heavens, I cry, "Oh my dear Lord !"

"This world indeed needs someone to clean this crap
Someone who never cares how deep is the trap

No matter whether its day or night
All that really matters is to bring in some light

I wish One day I would be upto it and do things the way I should
and then I won't just lie down n tell myself 'I wish I could'"
