"Boys Don't Complain" and "Boys Don't Cry" - जैसा कहते हैं | अपने दर्द से इतना वाकिफ हैं कि बाहर पूरे संसार का दर्द छुपा रह जाता है | हमारी नज़र शीशे में अपनी परछाई पर ही टिकी ठहरी है, चाहे उसके पीछे एक पूरी जंग चल रही हो या तड़प-पुकारें हमें बुला रही हों |
I need a new song for my age. In retrospect, 24 was the perfect age - I had Neil Yong's "Old Man" to lift me ("24, and there's so much more"). Through 25, I dragged it on, just in assurance that the 'so much more' is right at the corner and coming (a perfect Bokononist untruth). For 26, I had a developing sense of gloom over memories that the song brought, and the promises that were just gas (I would see that as my injustice to this rock anthem).I could see a ship, no, a dinghy floating by a pier, with a festive snapshot of me in a state of [deluded] certainty over my promises. That dinghy, too, seems sunk now. There needs be a reminder that life ain't as dead as it seems to be, an age-appropriate one, hence why I need a song. I hope I don't settle with Pink's "Comfortably Numb".
