Etched On My Heart 05:58
lyrics
You've been gone For a while And I can see You no longer care You've been loved To the point That I hurt myself It's no good for me Since I know you won't come back Because you have made new friends I wonder how things would be If we could reconnect somehow Oh I can't forget that face of yours Your lovely smile Etched on my mind I can't forget your pretty eyes Your funny laugh Etched on my heart You've been lost For a while And I can see You just don't miss me You've been stored In my brain Somewhere deep buried in memories Since I know you won't come back Because you have made new friends I wonder how things would be If we could reconnect somehow Oh I can't forget that face of yours Your lovely smile Etched on my mind I can't forget your pretty eyes Your funny laugh Etched on my heart Oh I can't forget that face of yours Your lovely smile Etched on my mind I can't forget your pretty eyes Your funny laugh Etched on my heart

Trying Hard 05:54
lyrics
Sometimes I feel I'm not good enough Sometimes I feel like I'm a waste Sometimes I feel like I will never reach you Sometimes I feel like I should give up Sometimes I feel like I'm a shame Sometimes I feel like I will never please you But I try my best to do things I really do I am working hard to achieve things I really am I wish you could see me now working I wish you could see me now trying hard Sometimes I'm looking for approval Sometimes I just don't give a shit Sometimes I want to feel like I am worthy Sometimes I really get you into it Sometime I really feel like I am OK But sometimes I feel like I am wasting my time But I try my best to do things I really do I am working hard to achieve things I really am I wish you could see me now working I wish you could see me now trying hard Sometimes I feel like I'm the greatest Sometimes I feel like like total crap Sometimes I'm only looking for a smile Sometimes I want to jump from a bridge Sometimes I cling to dear life Sometimes I want to go to sleep forever But I try my best to do things I really do I am working hard to achieve things I really am I wish you could see me now working I wish you could see me now trying hard

The Real You 03:28
lyrics
There's something cute about The way you look at me now I cannot tell what is The thing that drives you to feel Fond of me all this time There's something strange about The way you live every day I cannot tell what is The thing that drives you to be Nice with me all these years I wish I knew Beyond that mask of fear Lies the real you and You know it well because I love you so, so much There's something clear about The way you express your values I cannot go against Your wishes because I know You'll never change your mind There's something sad about The way I feel about you I cannot go against Your wishes because I know You love someone else now I want your love Beyond that mask of fear Lies the real you and You know it well because I love you so, so much

Get Back To Me 04:37
lyrics
Again it is time to sleep But I just can't I'm drowning in the night The moonlight is coming thru I'm sick and weak I can't go on like this I didn't want to feel so old I didn't want to feel so lonely If I could change my life for good I don't want to be like this Again I am on my own You left me here I'm drowning in my tears The room is a mess right now I'm cold and frail I want to end this pain I didn't want to fight with you I didn't want to hurt your feelings If I could change the things I did I would find some peace inside Get back to me Please forgive me love Get back to me Don't be cold with my poor heart I wrote a letter for you But I don't know If you will get my drift The sunlight is coming thru I'm lost and numb I can't move on like this I didn't want to feel so bad I didn't want to feel so angry If I could fix my aching heart I would deal with this heartbreak I don't know what to do now I'm done crying I don't have any tears I'm going through all my things Your pictures feel Like fire in my chest I didn't want to trash it all I didn't want to burn our bridges If I could leave it all behind I would put an end to this Get back to me Please forgive me love Get back to me Don't be cold with my poor heart Get back to me Please forgive me love Get back to me Don't be cold with my poor heart aaahhh

Closeness 07:32
lyrics
The days go by And I have strange feelings inside The emptiness Is growing deeper in my soul I'm close to you But I can't help drifting apart Maybe someday We won't have any words to say Flying thousands of miles Is it worth it at all? I just don't know anymore Flying just to see you Is it worth it at all? I just don't know I want to see you again But I don't know how to react This feeling is bringing me down The closeness is gone I want to see you again But I feel so insecure inside This feeling is bringing me down The closeness is gone I don't want to feel this way I don't want to go away I want you to be with me I want to stay close to you But it feels like forcing things The days go by You say you're worried about me And you are right But I can't tell you what I feel I still love you But I can't help drifting apart Maybe someday You'll be a stranger in my life Flying thousands of miles Is it worth it at all? I just don't know anymore Flying just to see you Is it worth it at all? I just don't know I want to see you again But I don't know how to react This feeling is bringing me down The closeness is gone I want to see you again But I feel so insecure inside This feeling is bringing me down The closeness is gone I don't want to feel this way I don't want to go away I want you to be with me I want to stay close to you But it feels like forcing things Another night Insomnia eating me alive I know I can't Do anything to help you out I'm still your friend I just don't know what to do now I say goodbye And I am crying my eyes out Flying thousands of miles Is it worth it at all? I just don't know anymore Flying just to see you Is it worth it at all? I just don't know I want to see you again But I don't know how to react This feeling is bringing me down The closeness is gone I want to see you again But I feel so insecure inside This feeling is bringing me down The closeness is gone I don't want to feel this way I don't want to go away I want you to be with me I want to stay close to you But it feels like forcing things

Empty Shell 03:36
lyrics
Fire inside me burning like an ember Swirling, dancing deep down my soul Passion blazing burning through the ashes of the remnants of this love Hatred, hatred Hatred I feel for you grows and grows like a massive black hole Devouring all traces of humanity Left inside this empty shell Don't try to get into my life You have lost your fucking chance Don't try to get into my life You have lost your fucking chance I don't want to deal with your existence I don't want to see you ever again Sleepless nights have fucked me over Turning my mind into a dark mess Passion blazing burning through the ashes of the remnants of this love Hatred, hatred Hatred I feel for you grabs and smashes my aching heart Sinking further into madness Left inside this empty shell Don't try to get into my life You have lost your fucking chance Don't try to get into my life You have lost your fucking chance I don't want to deal with your existence I don't want to see you ever again Lost like a ghost inside a hellhole wandering pondering left behind Passion blazing burning through the ashes of the remnants of this love Hatred, hatred Hatred I feel for you Bleeds like river of despair Unrequited love in shambles Left behind inside this shell Don't try to get into my life You have lost your fucking chance Don't try to get into my life You have lost your fucking chance I don't want to deal with your existence I don't want to see you ever again

Fine Line 04:18
lyrics
I see you laughing behind my back You are so mean and so cruel You like to mock me no matter what You get pleasure from my pain You're a dick And you keep that fucking smile like nothing You fool You think I don't notice all you do I see you talking behind my back You're a hopeless liar You love to damage people's lives You get pleasure from their pain You're a dick And you keep that fucking smile like nothing You fool You think I don't notice all you do But there is A fine line That you can't cross I dare you to come say shit to my face A fine line That you can't cross I dare you to come I don't think you can! A fine line That you can't cross I dare you to come say shit to my face A fine line That you can't cross I dare you to come I don't think you can! I see you talking to our friends They have fell for your lies You like to mock me for who I am You're nasty piece of shit You're a dick And you keep that fucking smile like nothing You fool You think I don't notice all you do But there is A fine line That you can't cross I dare you to come say shit to my face A fine line That you can't cross I dare you to come I don't think you can! A fine line That you can't cross I dare you to come say shit to my face A fine line That you can't cross I dare you to come I don't think you can!

Frail Hands 04:08
lyrics
When I see you outside I'm wondering how long Will it take for you to fall down How long 'till you drop motionless I don't want to see you in pain no more I don't want to see you work so damn hard I don't want to see you lose your senses I don't want to see you getting old and frail When you look at your flowers I can see your bond Something special that can't be broken Far away from everyone I don't want to see you in pain no more I don't want to see you work so damn hard I don't want to see you lose your senses I don't want to see you getting old and Frail, your hands are frail Still you can't stop Even if your body aches Frail, your hands are frail But you know what Makes you happy in the end Everyday you work so hard Gardening non-stop Something special only you can feel When you smell the roses but I don't want to see you in pain no more I don't want to see you work so damn hard I don't want to see you lose your senses I don't want to see you getting old and Frail, your hands are frail Still you can't stop Even if your body aches Frail, your hands are frail But you know what Makes you happy in the end

about

This is my eleventh solo album. I deal with the frustration and sadness that sometimes people bring to my life. The people that make you feel happy can also be the people that make you feel miserable. Relatives, friends, lovers. As always, there's a mix of different musical genres here. From the power of metal to the melancholy of pop rock and acoustic to the spacey vibes of electronica and ambient, there's something for everyone to enjoy. Thank you for listening, your support and patronage!
