Unravelling

Music and Lyrics: Florian Hoffmann (c) Copyright 2020

Hast du heute an Möhrchen genagt?
Dir Geschichten und mehr ausgedacht?
Spitz die Öhrchen, hör wie Mama dir sagt:
Schließ die Äuglein, schlaf ein, gute Nacht

Hast du heute was Neues gewagt?
Was erkundet, getobt und gelacht?
Spitz die Öhrchen, hör wie Papa dir sagt:
Schließ die Äuglein, träum süß, gute Nacht

Another night draws in
I look out to the stars
And I can't help but wonder 
Where you are

Maybe you're an angel 
In the Heaven above
Reaching out to touch me
With your love

I can feel you shining
Your light never grows old
I can feel you shining
Like glitter and gold
Endless as the starry sea 
You never stop shining for me

As I settle into sleep
I miss you next to me
But I know that I'll see you
In my dreams

A magic world beyond
The fabric of space and time
Where can be together
In my mind

I can feel you shining
Your light never grows old
I can feel you shining
Like glitter and gold
Endless as the starry sea 
You never stop shining for me

I'm learning to get by on my own
I know it's what I must do
But I'll never stop loving you

I can feel you shining
Your light never grows old
I can feel you shining
Like glitter and gold
Endless as the starry sea 
You never stop shining for me

You'll Never Stop Shining For Me

All of the music you hear is written and arranged by the awesome Florian Hoffmann. Florian asked for some help with lyrics and melody, I was excited to help.

It’s just a bit of fun….a Bond adjacent track….we hope you enjoy it.🤵🏼🤪

Lyrics.
Mines been a life
Lived in the dark
Scouring the depths for my mark
No surprise that I’d be blinded by a spark

In such perfect circles
She hunted her prey
Stealing my heart was a game
I was dead before I ever saw the blade

I’ve been shot
Tortured, burned
But nothing hurts
Quite like her

Blood is in the water
There’s no time
Shadows closing in
It’s kill or die
I’m a fool, never saw it coming
Every kiss was a twisted knife
You played me once
Won’t kill me twice.

I’m drowning in memories
Our beautiful lie
Stunned by the chill in her eyes
Oh the irony she made me feel alive

Can’t look back
And I won’t run
And I can’t miss 
what never was.

You never should have left me there for dead
You underestimate me
When the pressure is building I rise.

Written by Florian Hoffmann/Leo Bull

Won’t Kill Me Twice (co-write with Florian Hoffmann)

Sprinting the hallway
Crashing through doors 
scooping you up 
from the desolate floor
Kissing your forehead
You in my arms
Precious and light
like some silvery star
Where is it hurting?
How do you feel?
I remember just silence
though we all must have screamed
when you dropped to the ground
with your eyes rolling back
whiter than lapland snow

Rain pounding harder
Breaking the lights
The night its against us
Its wicked and wild
It's dark in the park
as we speed and we steer
A shadowy look
From a menacing deer
And the guard looks the same
at the hospital desk
As I plead in a panic
Forget it he says
Its busy tonight, like it is every night..
To the back of the queue you go

Chorus 1
And all I see
On this cold hard planet
Is no love
Or mystery
Just a waiting room that's carnage,
All hard-edged and mean,
My jacket round your shoulders,
It's just you and I in A&E.

Waiting for hours
Bodies awash
A scene from some frightful
Hieronymous bosch 
A nurse barks her orders
its news that we seek
And we're tiptoeing now
Through the weak and the meek
Through the puke and the piss
Through the freaks from the streets
They're all harmless I guess, 
but they still make you shriek,
Then the nurse holds me back,
I let go of your hand, 
And through a curtain you walk alone

Chorus 2
And all I see
On this cold hard planet
Is no love
Or mystery
And I've been fighting with your mother
and this system is obscene,
Those lousy politicans,
its just you and I in A& E

Bridge
I remember I was in the first year of my new job when you were born
I carried you in my arms and I whispered in your ear 'you'll carry me home too one day'
And I checked the car seat 15 times before we left to bring you home from this same hospital
And I lay you down in a fresh gown in a straw cot as gentle as a bud
 of cotton.

Driving you home now
Sun starts to rise
You're falling asleep
On the passenger side.
Hours we waited.
You were just dehydrated.
The doctors were angry,
Their time we were wasting
But I'm here with you.
You're here with me.
Lost pilgrims both.
And if you are not the word of God God never spoke.

You and I in A&E

Lyrics:

We’re in the summer shade 
And there isn’t anybody I’d rather be with 
Just drinking cheap champagne 
To stay in this moment what I wouldn’t give 

We share our craziest stories and the memories unfold 
We laugh so hard the bubbles come out of our nose 
I wanna love you but I don’t wanna get out of control 
Just gotta chill out and see how it goes / this thing goes 

I’ve got this polaroid 
I bookmark the pages and end up not reading a word 
I kinda feel annoyed 
But your voice is the sweetest thing I’ve ever heard 

—————— 
watch the cork pop 
long walk and short talk 
let the ocean tickle our toes 
so the story goes 
love at first sip 
let's see where the wind blows  
candle light and cheap champagne dreams 
prosecco, notes of summer fruits 
how much music can we make with 2 plastic flutes 
the type of love you see in cheap shows on the tube  
it's easy breezy beautiful, let's hit the covers, girl 
with a book and a flashlight  
keep talking all night see where it goes 
i'd guess somewhere over rainbows  
if we lose our way while we roam 
just follow the bubbles home  
you can't be lost when you're not alone

Murderer and Thief
Lyrics: Andrea Brennan
Music, Vocals and Production: Jon-Yngve Bakke

V1
I believe I have witnessed
The death of artistry
In the heart of New York City
At Pleiades gallery

V2
Each work hanging on display
Has a familiar glint
Labeled original but isn’t
Copies from another’s footprint

Chorus
Your signature reads AI Muse
A clever ruse I see right through
It is my belief
You’re a murderer and thief

V3
A talent of prediction
Using words dictated
And techniques recreated
Then computer generated

Chorus
Your signature reads AI Muse
A clever ruse I see right through
It is my belief
You’re a murderer and thief

Bridge
Tell me, where is the heart
Without a practiced hand
Is art buried in the sands, of time
Without the woman or the man

Chorus
Your signature reads AI Muse
A clever ruse I see right through
It is my belief
You’re a murderer and thief

Murderer And Thief  - FAWM Demo

FAWM 2018

Not Too Sober to Fight

The isle of Inishmore and the other Aran Islands off the west coast of Ireland hold a mythic significance within Ireland’s cultural heritage (it’s where the great Irish playwright Synge, amongst others, went to immerse himself in the Irish language and its creative spirit). This tribute is something of a dreamscape inspired by the strength of the Celtic soul and the majesty of the scenery. The themes embodied - exile, love/longing and the dream of redemption - are elemental within Irish poetry and song. If this little offering adds anything to enhance the special place which Ireland holds in many of our hearts (or soothe, even for a moment, any of its wounds) it will have fulfilled it’s goal.
