I missed the earthquake because of slumber

I missed my love because of reasons vain

I missed the call because the phone was silent

and the opportunity because I couldn't restrain.

I missed the world for I was busy sleeping

I lost my sanity there was nothing to gain

I lost my friends because I woke up too late

and then from speaking the truth I couldn't abstain.

I lost my peace didn't want to pay any price

had it been for for free I would tendered it fain

I missed the sun because of the black clouds

and I missed rainbow because of the rain.

I missed the future my past contributed

missed the present no one was around

missed her love felt Unrequited

I seldom felt sane and sound.

They tell me to move on and have a life

but I am too busy slumbering around

don't try to wake me I 'll not wake up

at least not till there's another earthquake around.
