the lyrics for Nagaland at the moment,
corrupted is the state, high unemployment rate,so hard to fade.
then there are lives of people who dare to err.
the lonely girl who listens to 100 sad songs, using cheap headphones, no affection, just ear infection.
the closet gay who has the largest crush on that hot youth pastor the lover of his sister.
the cheap hipster trying to stay relevant but no texts, spinning around its own axis.
parents hate you, siblings mistreat you, everyone is dead, you read.
a widow in 2 months, an ex-lover tomorrow, losing two jobs in a row.
the carriage of your womb might have led to miscarriage, you might never have tiny ones to share your last name and blame.
might be a loser in all the fields, and it feels like nothing left to be filled.
might be depressed nothing left to impress.
life might be one tiny illusion with no solution.
but the Book says, God lives in you, the strength lies you.
happy days are gone, but good-byes are pre-hellos.
