On that same inhumane street when I tread,
It ever finds me guilty of being unable and afraid.
Next time I assure, irrespective of fear, to defend.
Of courage, of fear yet another year comes to an end.
Everywhere around foul filth surrounds,
System's rotten and rationality hardly counts.
Although little, I assert to care and mend.
Of good, of evil yet another year comes to an end.
Fear of betrayal locks me in a room,
Out I see foes more and much of gloom.
But its all living so I avow to peep out of window and make a friend.
Of love, of hate yet another year comes to an end.
I am sorry again for my irresponsible attempt,
I retreated without even a try.
Amidst dark but towards optimism I pledge to tend,
Of hope, of despair yet another year comes to an end.
Knocking at doors is the dawn of following year
And I promise as always to play it fair.
Some goodness I'll borrow, some I'll lend,
Of life, of me yet another year comes to an end.
It ever finds me guilty of being unable and afraid.
Next time I assure, irrespective of fear, to defend.
Of courage, of fear yet another year comes to an end.
Everywhere around foul filth surrounds,
System's rotten and rationality hardly counts.
Although little, I assert to care and mend.
Of good, of evil yet another year comes to an end.
Fear of betrayal locks me in a room,
Out I see foes more and much of gloom.
But its all living so I avow to peep out of window and make a friend.
Of love, of hate yet another year comes to an end.
I am sorry again for my irresponsible attempt,
I retreated without even a try.
Amidst dark but towards optimism I pledge to tend,
Of hope, of despair yet another year comes to an end.
Knocking at doors is the dawn of following year
And I promise as always to play it fair.
Some goodness I'll borrow, some I'll lend,
Of life, of me yet another year comes to an end.
