What Burns Inside by Edwin H. Balder
Wind pulls the tide, fingers trace the light,
The waves remember, but the sky won’t write.
A breath, a step, a name once known,
A fire that hums beneath the stone.
I’m on fire, this won’t fade,
Every breath is wrapped in flame.
Fingers tremble, silence speaks,
Standing closer, feeling weak.
You’re a current, pulling deep,
I should let go, I should leave.
Please hold back what burns inside,
Before we lose this fragile line.
Please hold back, please don’t break,
Before we touch what we can’t take.
Walls are closing, words get lost,
This is more than what it costs.
No escape, no second guess,
No more playing innocent.
Heat won’t settle, waves won’t still,
Tell me—do you feel it too?
Please hold back what burns inside,
Before we lose this fragile line.
Please hold back, please don’t break,
Before we touch what we can’t take.
Truth burns through empty space,
Fires rise where hearts erase.
Shadows stretch where footsteps fade,
Wanting pulls, but choices wait.
Now I stand where choices fade,
Feeling everything you made.
I could step, I could turn,
But I know how this will burn.
If we fall, if we lose,
Will you hold back what we choose?
Please hold back what burns inside,
Before we lose this fragile line.
Please hold back, please don’t break,
Before we touch what we can’t take.
Heat rises, air turns thin,
And you still pull me in   (pull me in)   Pull...me.....in

Have You Got the Power indie

Un inno alla forza femminile nel lavoro e nella vita. Nonostante le responsabilità, i dubbi e chi non ti vede abbastanza, continuo a mostrare la mia grinta, determinazione e leadership. Essere donna, essere fiera, essere pronta a dimostrare il mio valore.

🇬🇧 English:
An anthem of female strength at work and in life. Despite responsibilities, doubts, and those who underestimate me, I keep showing my grit, determination, and leadership. Being a woman, being proud, being ready to prove my worth.

🇪🇸 Español:
Un himno a la fuerza femenina en el trabajo y en la vida. A pesar de las responsabilidades, las dudas y quienes no me valoran, sigo mostrando mi coraje, determinación y liderazgo. Ser mujer, ser orgullosa, estar lista para demostrar mi valor.

I Get Things Done

I just wondered, why does no one but Shania Twain sing about the moment you "make it"? The moment when you get the good news, the moment you hoped and waited for; when a weight is lifted off your shoulders. That just happened to me a few days ago and I wanted to write about it, about savoring and enjoying this moment without thinking too much of the future or how long will this moment last. Hope you enjoy <3 

Lyrics: 
So this is what it’s like
To stand on the other side
To think about the future
And not fear the night

The tide has calmed down
The waves no longer drown
The veil has unveiled
The death of my spectral cry

Why does no one talk about
The moment when you make it?
When the puzzle piece fits inside and out
Is it too peaceful to write about?
Or are you scared it’s not gonna last?

I drove through the fog with the lights off
I cried, pleaded, freaked out all alone
Wrote endless songs about being lost
And now I’m standing where I prayed to stop

Why does no one talk about
The moment when you make it
When the puzzle piece fits inside and out
Is it too peaceful to write about?
Or are you scared it’s not gonna last?

Wrote words on paper, feeling blind
Turned up the volume to appease the doubts
Somewhere inside I hoped it'd all turn out
Like this....
Just like this...

Lyrics:
midnight glow on the dashboard glass
every truth I swallow, every chance I pass
built a throne from noise, they all bow when I speak 
but you look straight through my crown, leave me on my knees 

you were scared but you didn’t need 
I’d have caught you if you fell for me 
I know the place where your walls give in 
follow me there and don’t hold it in 

trace my name with your breath in the dark 
say it like a prayer that tears you apart 
hands at the edge of a world I can’t steer
I’ll take you where you’ve never been, you’ll be shaking when you’re near 

every chance that I missed, every word I held inside 
forgot the heat in my hands when your eyes met mine 
I’m a god to the crowd but with you I’m just myself 
every saint needs a sinner, every king to confess 

you were scared but you didn’t need 
I’d have caught you if you fell for me 
I know the place where your walls give in 
follow me there and don’t hold it in 

trace my name with your breath in the dark 
say it like a prayer that tears you apart 
hands at the edge of a world I can’t steer 
I’ll take you where you’ve never been, you’ll be shaking when you’re near 

soft as a tremor, rough as a flame
whisper your promise while learning my name 
if you fall, if you break, if you call my name 
I’ll be there in your glow again 

I’m still the boy you couldn’t see 
powerless where I wanted to be 
but when you fall, when you break, when you call my name 
I’ll be there again 

shaking

🎶 Darkest Secrets

When the city becomes a cage and hope is a dead frequency, all that's left is the static in your head. This is the anthem for the hollow, the ones praying to a sky made of stone.

Hallow cathedral

(Verse 1)
We built a rocket out of milk crates and dreams,
Painted stars on the fence where the grass meets the seams.
The world felt endless past that wooden line,
Our galaxy fit in a night that was mine.

(Pre-Chorus)
We didn’t need no satellites,
Just porch light planets in the night—
Every whisper, every laugh,
Felt like a comet burning fast.

(Chorus)
In our backyard universe,
We owned the stars, for what it’s worth.
Old lawn chairs became our thrones,
We were gods of the great unknown.
In our backyard universe,
Everything felt unrehearsed.
You were the sun, and I was cursed,
Orbiting you forever.

(Verse 2)
Your dad’s old speakers played Bowie too loud,
We danced in pajamas, invisible crowd.
Talked about leaving this town someday,
But part of me still hopes we’ll stay.

(Pre-Chorus)
Constellations in your eyes,
Mapped the roads I’d never find—
Every moment, every spark,
Was our whole world in the dark.

(Chorus)
In our backyard universe,
We owned the stars, for what it’s worth.
Old lawn chairs became our thrones,
We were gods of the great unknown.
In our backyard universe,
Everything felt unrehearsed.
You were the sun, and I was cursed,
Orbiting you forever.

(Bridge)
Now the grass grew tall, the lights are gone,
But I still hear our favorite song.
If I close my eyes, I see that sky—
We never really said goodbye.

(Final Chorus)
In our backyard universe,
Where time and truth both reversed.
You were the sun, and I was cursed,
Still orbiting you forever.
Yeah, our backyard universe—
I still see you there,
In every star that burns.

(Outro)
Our backyard universe…
Still spinning somewhere.
