Pläne machen und dann die Wirklichkeit, wenn die Belastung nicht abnimmt.

I've taken the pictures from my mind
To save them for a rainy day
I feel i have left nothing behind
and i have everything to gain

I know 
You are there to guide me through the day
I know
No one here can take your love away
You give me strength to go on
Give me strength from my pain

Seeing the person that I am
Was not so easliy achieved
But when you came into my life
You showed me who i need to be

I know 
You are there to guide me through the day
I know 
No one here can take your love away
You give me strength to go on
Give me strength from my pain

You give me strength to go on
You give me strength to go on
You give me strength to go on
Give me strength from my pain

Stength From My Pain

Strength From My Pain

Verse 1

Sometimes you feel like there’s no way out
A world too big and filled with doubt
But there’s a spark inside you, bright as the sun
You’re stronger than you know, and you’ve just begun

Pre-Chorus

You can write the story, you can change the rules
Open up your vision, the future’s up to you

Chorus

Cause it’s your reality, no one can take it from you
Every dream’s within your reach, if you believe it’s true
You decide your destiny, the power’s in your hands
No matter where you start, you choose where you’ll land
It’s your reality—go claim what you can do

Verse 2

When fear knocks on your door, don’t let it in
You’ve got the heart to fight and the will to win
The voice inside that says “You’ve got this” is right
Take one step forward, step into the light

Pre-Chorus

No mountain too tall, no vision too grand
When you feel the call, that’s where you’ll stand

Chorus (repeat)

Cause it’s your reality, no one can take it from you
Every dream’s within your reach, if you believe it’s true
You decide your destiny, the power’s in your hands
No matter where you start, you choose where you’ll land
It’s your reality—go claim what you can do

Bridge

Don’t let the outside noise drown out your inner flame
You’re the one who writes your script—no two stories are the same
Focus on the horizon, let hope guide your way
Stand tall in your purpose, tomorrow starts today

Final Chorus

It’s your reality, no one can take it from you
Every dream’s within your reach, if you believe it’s true
You decide your destiny, the power’s in your hands
No matter where you start, you choose where you’ll land
It’s your reality—so go on and shine through

Outro

Yes, it’s your reality—go claim what you can do
Stand up and make it real—‘cause it all begins with you

It’s your reality

[Verse]
I take the first train out of town
My shadow whispers
Don’t back down
The night’s alive
The lights still glow
But one step closer
And I know

[Chorus]
I’m everywhere with my ghost
An unseen guest
The one I host
It haunts my skin
It holds my hand
In every place
In every land

[Verse 2]
The mirror cracks but still reflects
A tethered soul and past regrets
It hums a tune I used to sing
A love that's lost
A bitter sting

[Chorus]
I’m everywhere with my ghost
An unseen guest
The one I host
It haunts my skin
It holds my hand
In every place
In every land

[Bridge]
It knows my secrets—word by word
It clings to dreams I’d never heard
The wind may blow
I feel its kiss
An endless loop of all I miss

[Chorus]
I’m everywhere with my ghost
An unseen guest
The one I host
It haunts my skin
It holds my hand
In every place
In every land

Everywhere w My Ghost

Originally for my dog Cordy, this song is a tribute to my dog Roggie...

Roggie

This song is about something simple—but powerful.

It’s easy to focus on the lines that divide us… borders, oceans, different languages, different flags. But beneath it all, we all want the same things—peace, family, comfort, dignity, and a place to call home.

This isn’t a protest song. It’s not about tearing down walls—it’s about quietly weaving the world together, thread by thread, through kindness, patience, and understanding.

Sometimes, the most lasting change happens slowly… through time… as hearts connect and lines begin to fade.


[Verse 1]
They draw the borders, raise the walls,
Name the oceans wide and tall.
But hearts don’t carry flags or kings,
We all ache for the same soft things.

[Verse 2]
A quiet night beneath the trees,
The sound of children, a summer breeze.
A home that holds the ones we love,
Some peace below, some hope above.

[Chorus]
What if the lines could slowly fade,
Not torn apart, but just re-made?
Through every kindness, every song,
We’d find we’ve been the same all along.
Let the rivers blend, let the winds entwine,
Let time itself… blur the lines.

[Verse 3]
We all want warmth, a place to heal,
A table filled with honest meals.
To grow old without fear or shame,
To hear someone still speak our name.

[Chorus]
What if the lines could slowly fade,
Not torn apart, but just re-made?
Through every kindness, every song,
We’d find we’ve been the same all along.
Let the rivers blend, let the winds entwine,
Let time itself… blur the lines.

[Bridge] (Quiet, intimate)
It won’t come fast, but it can start
In little ways, with open hearts.
A helping hand, a simple grace,
A smile shared in a crowded place.

[Final Chorus – Soft but Resolute]
And slowly the lines will start to fade,
Not torn apart, but gently swayed.
Through every kindness, every song,
We’ll see we’ve been the same all along.
Let the rivers blend, let the winds entwine,
Let time itself… blur the lines.



Everywhere w My Ghost
