The Return

The Battle

Lyrics/Vocals/Guitar - Eileen 

The Ricochet ©️

I am here I am here I heard you say
Amplified by the ricochet
A silent stand-strong 
Anticipate the times to come 
 
In the shadows of disbelief
Open up your eyes so you will see
A beacon - a kind of light 
In the dead of the night 

A frown to a smile, a hug, a way
The ricochet
A frown to a smile, a hug, a way
The ricochet 

I can see I can see I heard you say 
Amplified by the ricochet 
A chosen observer
Silent with only a murmur 

A frown to a smile, a hug, a way
The ricochet
A frown to a smile, a hug, a way
The ricochet 

Reflections of shadows fade in the dark 

A frown to a smile, a hug, a way
The ricochet
A frown to a smile, a hug, a way
The ricochet 

©️Eileen van der Schyff May 2022

The Ricochet is about how nothing we give or feel disappears, it rebounds. A word, a silence, a smile, even pain, they echo back, often stronger, often transformed. It’s a song about resilience, quiet strength, and how the smallest human gestures can ripple into light in the darkest of nights.  A ricochet is unpredictable: it shows how love, pain, or conflict can rebound in unexpected ways. In the song, that imagery becomes a metaphor for the way life’s wounds or echoes of the past keep coming back, even when you try to move forward.

Amor Vincit Omnia

Amor Vincit Omnia No. 02

Rocktober day 17 and track 17.

I had 2 hours to make it and this is my "safe route to finish at least something" 😆
No dreamy tinkling pads and arps and sweetness, but something more energetic!

This is a Work In Progress

I Don’t Want To Hurt Anymore

(v1)
Red tears spilling out my eyes, from this heart you cut in two
All these restless nights alone, I owe them all to you
You showed your true colors, the day said I do
You ain’t never settled down, and I know you ain’t been true
I could never trust you girl, I’ve come to know your kind
I’m gonna have to make a change, before I lose my mind

CHORUS
It’s time for you to pack your things, I ain’t taking any more
Make sure you got everything, before you find the door
Don’t wanna hear no promises, we been down that road before
I just wanna hear your footsteps, as you’re walkin’ cross the floor
No second chance, no make-up dance, you’re rotten to the core
I just don’t want to hurt anymore

INSTRUMENTAL

REPEAT CHORUS

(v2)
A man can only take so much, before he draws the line
When he’s reached his limit, and there ain’t no nother time
Adios goodbye auf wiedersehen, do I need to make a sign
Be sure to take your cheatin’ ways, don’t leave anything behind
Don’t forget the broken dreams, and the promises undone
No way you coulda hurt me worse, if you’d shot me with a gun

REPEAT CHORUS

I Just Don't Want To Hurt Anymore

Alan & Di
