Analysis of Standing
Farista Sairuv -0001 (Dhaka)
Here I am standing all by myself
In a world devoid of life and hope
Here I am standing I don't know why
In a world that can't be beautiful
Here I am standing all worn out
This suffering it wears down on my soul
Here I am standing screaming and crying
But none of it is ever heard
Here I am standing and I do not want
To be standing anymore
But here I am standing and until I cannot
I will take all the rocks they throw
