Seguir viviendo sin tu amor

Si a tu corazón yo llego igual
Todo siempre se podrá elegir
No me escribas la pared
Solo quiero estar entre tu piel
Y si acaso no brillara el sol
Y quedara yo atrapado aquí
No vería la razón
En seguir viviendo sin tu amor
Y hoy que enloquecido vuelvo
Buscando tu querer
No queda más que viento, uh
No queda más que viento
Y si acaso no brillara el sol
Y quedara yo atrapado aquí, oh
No vería la razón
De seguir viviendo sin tu amor, oh-oh-oh
Y hoy que enloquecido vuelvo
Buscando tu querer, ah
No queda más que viento, no
No queda más que viento
Y si acaso no brillara el sol
Y quedara yo atrapado aquí
No vería la razón
De seguir viviendo sin tu amor

lyrics:
we grew the garden just hide in the bed
under the covers we just leave it alone
i wish i could help you forget
but you do that on your own

is it easier when we’re taking it slowly
instead of running my mouth to say that it’s all in your head
and you’re kidding yourself if don’t see what i see
but it’s clear to me

that you got me thinking
ooh
i kinda like it just the way that you are
and i think i’ve known it right from the start
cus baby every time i’ll take you
as you are
as you

you don’t stay
i think it’s something i said
let it fall out my mouth
now i’m piecing the words back together
in ways just to tell ya
“how could it be in your head?”

so i sit at the door waiting for you call me
know i’d take it all back and try not to pull at the threads
but when everything comes apart know it’s only
a waste of breath

now you got me thinking
ooh
i kinda like it just the way that you are
and i think i’ve known it right from the start
cus baby every time i’ll take you
as you are
as you

know that it’s right
yeah
know where you been
but you’re not there darling
call it a night
cus you got me thinking ooh
i kinda like it just the way that you are
as you are
as you

as you are

Being in an unsafe environment.

I wrote this song with mixed feelings: one part of me wanted to express how I felt, the other part of me thought this was a really bad idea. Being in an abusive situation (both physical and emotional) can be very confusing. You start to think that it's your fault, that you deserved it, that it's normal, especially if that is what you're being told. You start to behave exactly as is expected of you, paying attention to all the rules, hoping you don't provoke anything. In the meantime, you're losing yourself bit by bit.
It's also confusing since it can go on for years without anyone else noticing it. If no one questions the other person(s), if no one tells you or them that what they're doing is wrong, it's hard to see the truth.
But I'm seeing the truth now and I think it's time to speak up, even though I'm terrified.

Lyrics

[Intro]

I’m not sure if this is a good idea
Some things are better left unsaid
Considering your responses
To other, less serious, situations

But my anxiety is suffocating me
And I need to breathe
Now I know how I got to this point…
It’s just somewhere I never wanna be again

I need to do things differently
Or I’ll never be able to be myself
I’ll never be able to live
So, here goes nothing…

[Song]

I’m so terrified
For just saying what’s on my mind
I feel your words, they cut right through me
Feeling far worse than I should be

I’m so terrified
I need to run, I need to hide
From all your rage, it’s getting to me
You’re destructive, why can’t you see?

Maybe it’s time you see (x3)
Maybe it’s time they see

Maybe it’s time you see (x4)
Maybe it’s time they see

Acting loving, acting caring
Acting like you are supportive
So committed, so empathic
Acting when we’re not alone
(x3)

Acting loving, acting caring
Acting like you are supportive
So committed, so empathic
Acting till we’re all alone

Till we’re all alone (x9)

And here come the responses
(Take cover, quick, take cover, watch out)
Here come the responses
(Take cover, quick, take cover, watch out)
And here come the responses
(Take cover, quick, take cover, watch out)
(x2)

Disproportional
Inappropriate
Not even functional
You’re delusional
(x2)

If I don’t shut up, you will make me shut up
Yeah, you will make it stop
If I dare to speak up, you will make it stop

If I don’t shut up, you will make me shut up
Yeah, you will make it stop
If I dare to speak up, you will

Tell everyone I’ve lost my mind
(You’re right, you’re always right, you’re right)
(You’re right, you’re always right, you’re right)
(x2)
 
Take cover, quick, take cover, watch out
Dodge all the bullets
(x12)

I’m so terrified
For just saying what’s on my mind
So, I distance myself from you
Wish I didn’t, but I have to
I really have to
I really have to

Terrified

VERSE 1
Tearing down the walls that I put up in my heart
Living all the dreams that had faded at the start
Burning down the bridge that trapped me in the past
Running to a place where freedom rings at last
 
CHORUS
It’s you, you’re the reason why
I do love the seasons and 
I Love the way you make me feel
I do
 
VERSE 2
Letting go of burdens I’ve been dragging for so long Learning from the echoes of the times I got it wrong Reaching for the moments that I never thought I’d claim Stepping into rhythms that are calling out my name
 
CHORUS
It’s you, you’re the reason why
I do love the seasons and 
I Love the way you make me feel
I do, it’s you 
 
BRIDGE
Just who you are completes me
You make my life so easy
Just wanna fall in love…
 
CHORUS
With you, you’re the reason why
I do love the seasons and 
I Love the way you make me feel
It’s you, you’re the reason why
I do love the seasons and 
I Love the way you make me feel
I do, you’re the reason why
It’s you, you’re the reason why
It’s you, you’re the reason why
It’s you 

You’re The Reason

Never underestimate the power of dreams.
A good way to find one's own soul.

Wildflower Dreams

VERSE 1 
I drew a picture of the sky 
On the back of a grocery store receipt 
Tried to fold it into wings 
But it fell down at my feet

PRECHORUS 
There’s a world inside my head 
No one else ever sees 
It’s under lock and key 
With my broke melodies
 
CHORUS 
But I still dream 
Of something clean 
A place where I can finally breathe 
And I still hope 
Though I know 
These paper wings can’t carry me

VERSE 2 
Coffee cold and letters burned 
I never learned how to say goodbye 
I was chasing tiny sparks 
That faded right before my eyes

PRECHORUS 
All the roads I thought were mine 
Led me where I can’t stay 
But I keep walking on 
Hoping I’ll find my way
 
CHORUS 
Cause I still dream 
Of something clean 
A place where I can finally breathe 
And I still hope 
Though I know 
These paper wings can’t carry me
 
And I still dream 
Of something clean 
A light that cuts through everything 
And I still hope 
Though I know 
My paper wings might never leave the street

Now Please Stop Asking Questions – Get Up Mix (Art, the Absence of Fear)

Cast of Characters:
Paul Young — PRS SE semi-hollow body electric guitar
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 – Upright double bass and organ
K2 and the Three [and the Four] -- @k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums
TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen– Earl Scruggs custom banjo, production, mix, and mastering

This is a song that Josh and his cousin Paul came up with on Thanksgiving night, after everyone went to bed. They were working on a much longer composition, but got stuck in the jam after looking at each other and wordlessly saying, "this is the magic, stick with it." We were playing an electric guitar and a stand-up bass to a looper disco beat when we recorded this. So, of course, Josh asked Ken if he'd add some real drums, which he did as though he were in the room jamming with us. Then josh laid down some organ to go with the jam. Josh and Stephen also had the idea to add some banjo in here, which Stephen did like the excellent musician he is. He also managed to mix this live recording hybrid with exceptional skill. 
  This is an example of two musicians who are intimately familiar with each other, and each other's playing and sensibilities, accompanied by two other musicians who have become nearly as familiar over the past few years. Happy belated Turkey Day to everyone. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.

Brain Hop

Brain Hop is a musical genre invented by the artist FICTIONALIVE on Monday, December 1st, 2025, at 1:24 PM. The genre seeks to bring depth, intellect, and philosophical reflection into contemporary music, emphasizing thoughtful lyricism, conceptual frameworks, and cognitive engagement across styles. Brain Hop differentiates itself from much mainstream music by prioritizing meaningful content, complex themes, and a cerebral approach to structure, rhythm, and sound design.

The creation of Brain Hop responds to the perception that a lot of current music leans heavily on surface-level entertainment while neglecting intellectual and existential depth. It aims to provide an artistic space where artists explore profound social, political, and existential issues through innovative production and poetic or experimental vocal delivery. Brain Hop can interact with hip-hop, electronic, pop, or experimental traditions, but is defined above all by its focus on ideas and reflection rather than by any single beat pattern or instrumentation.

​As of its inception, Brain Hop is positioned as an emerging genre within underground and alternative music scenes, promising to attract listeners and creators who value music that stimulates both mind and soul.
