In your arms

kleiner Prinz ( Deutsch )

I've spent the past week writing this song, the music is played on my keyboard.

Mr swing king

"I’m Not Your Cute, I’m Your Trial"
This isn’t a love song — it’s a reckoning.
A dark, sultry alt-R&B slow-burn where power, perception, and projection collide.
You thought she was soft? Think again.
Velvet voice, sharp tongue, and a mirror you didn’t ask to face.
“I’m not your cute. I’m your trial.”
Let that sink in.


I'm Not Your Cute, I'm Your Trial

Verse 1 

You thought I'd fold at your first touch 
Said my name like it's not much 
Pressed your thumb against my pulse
Like you owned what makes me convulse 
But I was counting every breath 
Filing away your little death

Pre-Chorus 
You wanted tame, you wanted weak
But now you're scared to hear me speak 
Ooooh, ooooh, TRY ME [Break]

Chorus I
'm not your cute, I'm your trial 
Not here to heal, I profile 
Every flinch goes in the file 
Watch you drown beneath my smile
You dressed me up in what you lack 
But I'm the mirror staring back I
'm not your cute, I'm your trial
 And baby, you're about to crack

Verse 2 
You kissed me like a conqueror
But I taste like what you were before 
The shame you buried, the fear you fed 
I'm every nightmare in your bed
You thought you'd break me with your charm 
But I'm the scar beneath your arm

Pre-Chorus 2
I'm not your fix, I'm your disease 
The truth that brings you to your knees 
Ooooh, ooooh, STILL HERE [Break]
Chorus I'm not your cute, I'm your trial 
Not your dream, I'm your denial 
All your ghosts behind my smile
I've been building up your file 
You came for flesh, I came for soul 
To show you what you can't control 
I'm not your cute, I'm your trial 
And I'm the one who swallows whole

Bridge (spoken/whispered over minimal production)
You're shaking now Not from desire
But recognition I was never here to love you
I was here to watch you realize 
What you really are 
When no one's looking (Beat) 
Except me

Final Chorus (with vocal layers and ad-libs)
I'm not your cute, I'm your trial (I see through you) 
Not your toy, I'm your spiral (every lie, every move) 
You thought desire made you strong
But I've been the judge all along
I'm not your cute... (whispered: never was)
 I'm your trial... (layered: your trial, your trial) 
And the verdict's in your eyes

Outro (whispered, intimate)
Guilty Guilty Guilty

I'm Not Your Cute, I'm Your Trial

(Verse 1)
She’s sitting on her little bed,
Warm candlelight, a glow of red.
A letter to Santa, like every year,
Lies in a bin — no postman near.
No postman comes to take it home.

Mom says softly, “That’s the magic,”
Dad just smiles, a little tragic.
But something’s different this cold night —
The truth is cracking, thin as ice.

(Chorus)
If you lie for dreams of glitter,
Of bunnies, sleighs, and season’s glow —
How can I trust what’s out there waiting,
What’s truly real in all I know?
If you lie for shiny stories,
For Easter bunnies, Christmas glory —
Then what is true beyond this light,
When "perfect worlds" turn into fight?
A child begins to lose her peace,
And sees the world’s sharp edge increase.
If you feed me tales and wonder,
Who will scream when truth goes under?
If Mom just lies to keep me whole —
From love and fear and gentle soul —
What about the harsh, cold voices,
Who speak of care, yet steal our choices?

(Verse 2)
Mom just says, "That’s how it goes —
A dream can guard where nothing grows."
But she knows well: soft lies and walls
Are still a cage when darkness calls.

…they’re fences made of thorns and wire,
Disguised as dreams that we admire.

(Bridge)
She counts the stars above the roof,
And wonders if there's any proof —
That somewhere out in all this night,
Another child still seeks the light.

auf Deutsch
 (Strophe 1) Sie sitzt auf ihrem Kinderbett, die Kerzen glühn in warmem Licht Ein Brief an Santa, wie jedes Jahr, liegt in einer Tonne die Post hlot ihn nicht  und die Post holt Ihn nicht Die Mama sagt, das sei Magie, der Papa nickt und lächelt leis. Doch dieses Mal ist alles anders, die Wahrheit liegt auf dünnen Eis. (Refrain) Wenn ihr schon lügt für Glitzerträume, für Hasen, Schlitten, Wunderzeit – wie soll ich glauben, was da draußen noch echt ist in der großen Welt? Wenn ihr schon lügt für Glitzerbäume, für Osterhasen,  Weihnachts -Träume   was ist da draußen wirklich echt die heile  Welt wird groß und schlecht Das Kind verliert sein Paradies  und sieht die Welt so hart und fies  Wenn ihr mich mit Märchen füttert ? wer schreit dann laut, das "Wahre Leid"? wenn Mamma lügt(um mich zu schützen)  aus Liebe, Angst ( und Zärtlichkeit –) was ist dann mit den kalten Stimmen, die sprechen für die Menschlichkeit?  Mama sagt: „So ist das eben – man schützt das Herz mit einem Traum.“ Doch sie weiß jetzt: Auch sanfte Lügen, -sind hohe Mauern in, (unserem Lebensraum.)  ....sind Mauern "Stacheldraht und Zaun" (Bridge) Sie zählt die Sterne überm Dach, und fragt sich, ist noch jemand wach. Ob irgendwo ,in einer  Welt  ein Kind wie sie die Sterne Zählt.

True Lies ( Deutsch )

Tired

Due anime perse

Ho immagini distorte dal caldo oppressivo 
Fotogrammi che rimangono impressi nella mente
Aspetto che mi rende nervoso e schivo
Cerco il fresco ma ho meno di niente

 il mio cuore reclama intanto che calcola 
E ho la pelle abbronzata  bruciata che lacrima

La rinascita é lontana e non vedo miraggi
Solo sabbia e deserto in questi tristi paraggi

Mi sono perso
Ci siamo persi
Verso un’altra galassia
O meglio in altri universi 
Siamo diretti noi
Come due oggetti noi

E dovrò scegliere
Dovrò decidere
Arrivato al bivio 
Dovremmo scegliere,decidere
Magari senza rimorsi
Solo due anime perse che hanno rinunciato a rincorrersi
Solo un addio, un addio, un addio
E soltanto un addio
Solo un addio
Non ci saranno più punti di incontro 
Ma solo un addio

Lo sento come un lontano ricordo 
Come polvere in un accumulo di macerie
Le nostre scelte sempre in disaccordo 
E le montagne con fatica da scalare

Mi sono perso
Ci siamo persi
Verso un’altra galassia
O meglio in altri universi 
Siamo diretti noi
Come due oggetti noi

E dovrò scegliere
Dovrò decidere
Arrivato al bivio 
Dovremmo scegliere,decidere
Magari senza rimorsi
Solo due anime perse che hanno rinunciato a rincorrersi
Solo un addio, un addio, un addio
E soltanto un addio
Solo un addio
Non ci saranno più punti di incontro 
Ma solo un addio

E dovrò scegliere
Dovrò decidere
Arrivato al bivio 
Dovremmo scegliere,decidere
Magari senza rimorsi

Solo due anime perse che hanno rinunciato a rincorrersi
Solo un addio, un addio, un addio
E soltanto un addio
Solo un addio
Non ci saranno più punti di incontro 
Ma solo un addio

Due anime perse

When Children Play
Racing down the streets in the sunlight.
We are just kids feeling good, playing our life.
We are out to play and we run around.
Chasing our friends while we shout so loud.
Emma is so cute, the boys in love with her.

„Hey, too close! Don't you throw the ball from there! 
Whoa, that was not fair! I won't play any more with you!
Why you are always so mean? Go away!
I play with someone else!“
Bye!

Michael likes to show his strength today.
Lucy is so pretty and she can play.
Marty looks so sad, oh no, what a day!
Finn is mad. I don't like him this way.
Snowball fight in the street, no one can beat me.
Rick's the best we all want him in our team.

„I am first, I run so fast! Joe is so sad, he's last!“
„Uhhh, shame in you you weren't fair!“
„Well, ohh, so sorry my friend!
Please let us be friends again. I really like you, my friend!
Could you too, like me the same?
Together we'll play very cool games“

We all want to play hide and seek.
But Mary always finds Nick too fast, ohh.
„ohhhoo, why I'm always last?
Whooo, I'm tired I go home.“

Tom is a liar, spins so many lies.
Lynn gets angry, is tired of his disguise.
Lars acts strong, but Nick and Lizz say no way.
The world is a game, but some don't wanna play.
He's angry and wants every one to obey.
But not all of us wanna follow what he says.

„Please let us be friends again. I really like you, my friend!
Could you too, like me the same?
Together we'll play very cool games“

The president tells his own stories.
He's the one who makes up what is true.
His minister obeys, always tells something new.
The world's his game, but some don't play.
He's upset now cause every one should obey.
But not all of us wanna follow what he says.

The president and his adviser can now no more get along,
spreading secrets and dirt, feeling very strong.
The president plays king, some don't wanna play.
The adviser admits he has gone too far, 
but most people now know where we are.
The president is angry: „All obey!“
But many are waiting eagerly for the day,
when the old king finally has gone away.

When Children Play

This tune is part of a concept album of mine that never was, but I’m still hoping to complete it in the future (one should never ever give up!). Essentially it is a demo of the main melody for a piece that will always be close to my heart.  

 

Heart of Bieszczady (Demo)

Dear friends - Chlorophyll is also our friend - it absorbs carbon dioxide and uses sunlight to make wood. Scientists are increasingly emphasizing the importance of preserving the greenery on Earth. Trees also provide shade, coolness and retain moisture in the soil. Trees are the climate's friend! At the same time, I would like to tell you what my grandfather taught me: chew each bite at least ten times so you don't get fat and have no stomach problems - and - save on electricity!!

Quietly the River Flows

Quietly the river flows under the green embrace 
of the willow trees whose leaves are moving with the wind
and birds like to catch all the flies swarming around here
and under the trees a lot of children have
gathered here to learn
all to know about our nature

They all lose their breath when they see the greenery
over the stream that sparkles by the morning sun
they enjoy their life and they can’t understand why
that not everyone are able to see this 
wonderful show
that are created for all of us

And they listen to the words given from their teacher
that say how it is when everything is falling down
how nature react - during the years that lie ahead of us 
it is magical how - nature swallow all the
carbon dioxide 
that we people have let out in the world
It is a magical sight to see these green leaves here

Lyrics in Swedish

Tyst flyter floden

Tyst flyter floden under den gröna famnen
av pilträden vars löv rör sig med vinden
och fåglar gillar att fånga alla flugor som svärmar omkring här
och under träden har många barn
samlats här för att lära sig
allt att veta om vår natur

De tappar alla andan när de ser grönskan
över bäcken som glittrar i morgonsolen
de njuter av sitt liv och de kan inte förstå varför
att inte alla kan se denna
underbara show
som är skapad för oss alla

Och de lyssnar på orden från sin lärare
som säger hur det är när allt faller ner
hur naturen reagerar - under de år som ligger framför oss
det är magiskt hur - naturen sväljer all
koldioxid
som vi människor har släppt ut i världen
Det är en magisk syn att se dessa gröna löv här

« La musique, c'est du bruit qui pense. »
(Victor Hugo, Fragments)
Un grand Merci pour vos écoutes.
Vos commentaires sont d'une grande utilité pour me perfectionner dans l'exécution de mes chansons et musiques.
Oui oui oui
Le soleil se lève doucement
Dans un ciel peint par le vent
Les oiseaux chantent sans soucis
 
[Chorus]
Oui oui oui
La paix dans nos cœurs aujourd'hui
Unis comme un grand cri
Faisons de la musique
Mes amis(ies)
 
[Verse 2]
Les rivières dansent entre les collines
Un écho doux
Une mélodie fine
Le monde est vaste mais si petit
Quand l'amour guide chaque pas
Chaque vie
 
[Chorus]
Oui oui oui
La paix dans nos cœurs aujourd'hui
Unis comme un grand cri
Faisons de la musique
Mes amis(ies)
 
[Bridge]
Une guitare
Une voix
Un refrain
Des âmes liées par le même destin
Le rythme d'un battement
Le son de demain
 
[Chorus]
Oui oui oui
La paix dans nos cœurs aujourd'hui
Unis comme un grand cri
Faisons de la musique
Mes amis(ies
