The Human Condition

This track was written for the lovers who want to love deeply and overcome all the obstacles in the way like fear and doubt.

Love Must Win Lyrics

Where have you been
I have longed for your arrival 
Transcended to be seen
My eyes remain in disbelief 
Of what’s left to be lived 
What’s left to be deeply lived 

So here we are, trying to remove
The fear from the love 
The fear from the love 
So love can win

Here we are, needing to know
That fear can fail 
And love can prevail 
Because love must win 
(Love must win)

For you and I 
Nothing left between us 
But the raw reasons to believe 
And be willing to get hurt 

I know it’s not easy 
We’ve been burned before
But what’s existence for?
If we let the walls close in
Break that wall (Break that wall)

Here we are, trying to sort out
The fear from the love (Love, Love, Love)
The fear from the love (Love, Love, Love)
So love can win (Love can win)

For the sake of the children (The children)
Their innocence must be saved (Saved) 
For the sake of humanity’s dignity 
Oh God, for the sake of our sanity!  
For the deep thinkers and travellers
The passionate revellers and  lovers  
Like you and me (You, You and me) 
Oooooohhhhhhh Ahhhhhhhhhh 

Here we are, needing to know
That fear can fail (Fail, fail)
And love can prevail (Prevail)
Because love must win (Love must win)

I want to know you, oh so deep
I want to be known, so deep
By you, your mind, your heart 
Please, please (please)  
Please step right in (Step right in)
We must find 
What can't separate us apart, forever 
I want to know 
But I cannot know
I have to risk it all, risk it all
For all of us because we are so worth it 

So here we are, risking the hurt again
Can the fear die for love (Love, Love, Love)
Can the fear die for love (Love, Love, Love)
So love can win (Love can win)
For you and I, love must win

Here we are, needing to know
That fear can fail (Fail)
And love can prevail (Prevail)
Because love must win (Love must win)

Love Must Win

You know when you have too many broken hearts and it's hard to to be vulnerable and courageous again to let yourself fall in love again - looking for the right person that never comes and you wonder why - hmmmm - this song is about that dilemma! 

I wanted to write a classical song - I wanted it about love but recalled my experience in my early years where I was afraid to commit, to fall and trust again.

Thanks AI for helping me land this track to this point reasonably quickly!  The song was butchered at the end so I needed to do some edit and restructure on the layers by splitting the stems and extending the song. A great demo for now for I do say so myself - it moved me. 

There is a hint of an extension of the love theme from my previous music video Once Upon A View I released on Youtube with an 1899 Cinderella Silent Film I was able to use! "The shoe must fit" :) 

Serve Love Lyrics

Upon a view at sunrise 
What lies ahead for you? 
Can there be love this time 
Waiting just for you?

I see again hesitation in those eyes 
Heels dug into grass brown stained 
What must lie on the other side
To defer again to another day?

Courage could not come soon enough 
But will it come at all?
You half-heartedly signed up for love 
With no stomach for the fall

Fall for love not because you are weak 
Fall for love because you are strong 
Fall for love not for the favours 
Fall for love because you serve love

Love has a lot to give 
But the shoe must also fit 
Love will refuse to stay 
It will indeed pull away
From the foolish takers 
The broken deniers 
Who sadly turn lovers 
Into runners for cover 

Courage could not come soon enough 
It won’t have to come soon
If you fool heartedly signed up 
To play lovers like fools

Fall for love not because you are weak 
Fall for love because you are strong 
Fall for love not for the favours 
Fall for love because we serve love

(Ah ahhhhhhhhhhh)
Serve, serve for love
(Ah ahhhhhhhhhhh)
Fall to serve love 

Upon a view to shine (shine) 
What be your kind? (the kind)
For the torch bearer (does know)
The light of truth fires up the passion 
oooooooh, ahhhhhhh

I see contemplation in your eyes 
Beneath stirring feet, you rise 
Committed to loving ways 
For much better days (better days)
The story goes, you wised up 
Bold tales of breaking down walls
That you full heartedly signed up 
To take the lead and light the way

(Ah ahhhhhhhhhhh)
Serve, serve for love
(Ah ahhhhhhhhhhh)
Fall to serve love 

(c) George Helou

Serve Love

We all have to manage our attachments and this song is a celebration to those ready to get less needy in our work in progress journey.

Bad Needy Bitch Lyrics 

I had my eye on you 
I knew we’d be great 
Whatever you choose 
I’m served on your plate 

You got the power 
I insist you take mine 
I’ll be your flower 
Your slave for all time 

Jumping your hoops is my fun 
But watch out when I come 
I latch on like anaconda  
No one is fonder 

(And the special price is)
I’m a bad needy bitch 
(Uh ha, Uh ah)
(I’m a) bad needy bitch
(Uh ha, Uh ah)
(I’m a) bad needy bitch 
(Uh ha, Uh ah)
With mum-daddy issues 

Like a rash on your skin (what?!)
Scratch me some attention
I’ll bleed for your love 
Devour the affection 

My ear’s to the ground  
Whatever you please 
No safe word sound 
Will stop your freak 

Jumping your hoops is my fun 
But watch out when I come 
I latch on like anaconda  
No one is fonder 

(And the special price is)
I’m a bad needy bitch 
(Uh ha, Uh ah)
(I’m a) bad needy bitch
(Uh ha, Uh ah)
(I’m a) bad needy bitch 
(Uh ha, Uh ah)
With mum-daddy issues 

Where are you?
Where did you go?
We have so much to do
Looked high and low
I’m getting angry now 
You better not be a no-show
I’ll love you more, show me how
Please let me know

(And the special price is)
I’m a bad needy bitch 
(Uh ha, Uh ah)
(I’m a) bad needy bitch
(Uh ha, Uh ah)
(I’m a) bad needy bitch 
(Uh ha, Uh ah)

You got the power 
I insist you take mine 
I’ll be your flower 
Your slave for all time 

My ear’s to the ground  
Whatever you please 
No safe word sound 
Will stop your freak 

Jumping your hoops is my fun 
But watch out when I come 
I latch on like anaconda  
No one is fonder 

(And the special price is)
I’m a bad needy bitch 
(Uh ha, Uh ah)
(I’m a) bad needy bitch
(Uh ha, Uh ah)
(I’m a) bad needy bitch 
(Uh ha, Uh ah)
With mum-daddy issues 
I’m a bad needy bitch 
(Uh ha, Uh ah)
(I’m a) bad needy bitch
(Uh ha, Uh ah)
(I’m a) bad needy bitch 
(Uh ha, Uh ah)
With mum-daddy issues 

I’m the screw to your driver 
Got you locked on my finder 
But where are you?
Where did you go? Hon?

Bad Needy Bitch (Radio Edit)

When you have dreams where you fly, it feels so real - and slowly you realise that real life is about flying and our dreams are the portals for reaching new heights 

Fly High Lyrics 

It’s getting rather boring 
Everyday feels the same 
Living the same story 
Walking the same lane 

Limitations a plenty 
So much we can’t do
Caged into bad deeds 
Must escape the coup

Into the closeness 
To seize the greatness 
I come alive when
I close my eyes

(And in my dreams I)
Fly, fly high 
Fly, fly (aaaaaaahhh)
Fly fly high 
Fly fly (aaaaaaahhh)

That was incredible 
I felt invincible 
I took to the sky  
Rose so high 

So much to show
In our flow 
We are so much more
Through that door  

Into the closeness 
To seize the greatness 
I come alive when
I close my eyes

(And in my dreams I)
Fly, fly high 
Fly, fly (aaaaaaahhh)
Fly fly high 
Fly fly (aaaaaaahhh)

(In my sweet dreams)
Fly, fly high 
Fly to clouds 
Fly fly high 
Fly to the stars (aaaaaaahhh)

Am I of light? -What a dream  
Intention ignites - What I wish
Can this be - What it seems? 
Can we make it so - If we persist? 
Yet I awake - And walk I must 
Is this power to fly - On the cusp? 
Is it a metaphor - Of great wings 
That overcome - Difficult things   

Into the closeness 
To seize the greatness 
I come alive when
Closed eyes open my mind

(In the awakened state I)
Fly high, I see it clear
Fly, fly without the fear
Fly high to what is dear
Fly, fly (aaaaaaahhh)

(In the dream of today, I)
Fly high, be sincere
Fly, fly truly free
Fly high, love is here
Fly, fly (aaaaaaahhh)
  
The metaphor is great  
It powers my state 
But I sense more 
For us to be 
So much more 
Allow and leave
The floor to awe 
Through that door 

Into the closeness 
To seize the greatness 
I come alive when
I close my eyes

(And in my dreams I)
Fly, fly high 
Fly, fly (aaaaaaahhh)
Fly fly high 
Fly fly (aaaaaaahhh)

(In my sweet dreams)
Fly, fly high 
Fly to clouds 
Fly fly high 
Fly to the stars (aaaaaaahhh)
(Ahhhhhhh, ahhhhhhh)

Fly High

This track was inspired by a Ladida app no longer existing - Pressed record without a plan of what to sing - suddenly a verse, pre-chorus and chorus came out of nowhere - melody, lyrics that now has evolved to become this full version.

This song is dedicated to the brave guys who are not afraid to pursue the partner of their dreams and are ready to commit. 

After my several years of commitment phobia I wished I had a song like this to get me inspired and motivated. Thankfully, I got there! 

Make You Happy Lyrics 

My intentions are clear
There’s one mission here
I’m totally mesmerised
You’ve got me energised
From nervous to brave
I couldn’t wait
The choice has been made
For love (love) to invade

Come on now, believe
I can make you happy
Come on now
Look this way
Walk this way
Love this way

I just wanna make you happy
I just want to make you laugh
I just wanna make you realise
That you are special, baby
So walk this way
Know that I am waiting for you
Love my way
Know that I’m thinking of you
So come on now
Let go, surrender because
I just wanna make you happy, I do
I just wanna make you happy
Baby, I love it when I’m with you

You, I’ve already carried
Across the mat of welcome
In my mind, we’re married
Four kids—yeah, it’s awesome
All in my mind
Now join me for wine
Collapse that time
Please be mine

Come on now, believe
I can make you happy
Come on now
Look this way

Love this way (this way)

My direction is clear
You’re my vision, my dear
I think you’ve realised
The question pops tonight
Dressed up and dedicated
I know we can make it
Tonight, love invades
Will you come my way?

Let go, surrender because
I just wanna make you happy, I do
I just wanna make you happy
Baby, I love it when I’m with you

You are so beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
You are so beautiful, beautiful, beautiful

Make You Happy

This represents my story about how I was in a war zone at 5 years of age - a bomb exploded across an intersection from our apartment where I was standing on the balcony. I witnessed a young girl pass away from it - I was too young if there is any age to confront such horror. 

Many experiences starting with this one made me run from my dreams. I share how I managed to outgrow my fear. Many people relate to this story because we are all on that mission to overcome our fears, traumas and conditioning. 

Here I Am Lyrics 

Where to start? 
Maybe right from the start 
Burned in my soul 
An explosion mark 
A tail of smoke
Big boom, hurry run!
Running, running
Where are you mum?

Shockwaves blew 5 years 
Of innocence away 
Saw evil killing 
Boys and girls in its way
Realisation that 
Faceless monsters exist
Raise that guard 
For the stones and sticks

Upon me and around me
So much to do 
Stay in your shell kid
They’re in a bad mood
Park your dreams
Wish your wishes away
Trust once in yourself 
And they’ll make you pay

Where am I going? 
Who should I be?
Can I exist 
Beyond here?
This fear’s too heavy
For my knees
Can’t keep running
From who to be

Was too busy to find me
Too busy to find me
But here I am, here I am 
Got lost in the grinding
It sadly defined me 
But here I am, here I am
I feel so alive, 
This me I can’t hide
Here I am, here I am
Here I ammmmmmm!  

What a nice quiet kid
They’re so eager to say
Does what he’s told
He must be okay
Loyal to the one goal
To simply assimilate 
Camouflaged like vanilla
What a fate 

Must please them 
So they’ll accept you 
Be invisible 
So they can’t reject you
Put your hands down
Kill the attention
Before you fail
Avoid their detection

What’s this place 
That pushes me down?
Where does it come from? 
Why does it come?
Who are these creatures
Waiting in shadows?
Time to call their bluff
Hey! Come take me, awayyyyyy! 

Woooooaaaaahhhhhhhh!
Come take me, awayyyyy! 
Woooooaaaaahhhhhhhh!

Where did they go? 
I surrendered to their power
Are they that gutless?
Or was I the conductor?
Of their power 
To keep me from myself 
To keep me being 
Anything but myself

Where was I going? 
What to be?
Time to exist 
Beyond here
The fear was heavy
For my knees
Gotta stop running
From who to be

Was too busy to find me
Too busy to find me
But here I am, here I am 
Got lost in the grinding
It sadly defined me 
But here I am, here I am
I feel so alive, 
This me I can’t hide
Here I am, here I am
Here I ammmmmmm!

Where next?
This is a brand-new start
Creating from my soul 
Leave legacy marks
Precious trails 
Off memories and fun
Flowing, flowing
From heart to mind

Where next?
This is a brand-new start
Creating from my soul 
Leave legacy marks
Precious trails 
Off memories and fun
Flowing, flowing
This is my time

Here I Am

This song began with staring into a fire in my mind's eye, as I do in real life a lot as a form of getting into a trance as we do. 

Then the lyrics poured out to express that struggle for two people to shatter the fear numbing obstacles and coldness of coping to avoid getting hurt. 

To shatter the ice of being frozen from action, to shatter the bias in the eyes to all love to happen. 

Reach Lyrics 

I sit here deep 
In my trance 
Upon these 
Dancing flames 
Divine moves 
In nature’s dance 
Clues of where 
We originate 

Engaging deeper 
Reveals more colour 
Does the seduction 
Ever end? 
The stillness blows 
My cover 
I’m locked on  
As my mind bends

[Pre Chorus] 
Can you feel me
Like I feel you?
Can you dig the being?
Are you really free? 
What are you seeing
That triggers the freezing?

I shatter the ice 
Shatter, (shatter)
Shatter the ice 
To reach you  
Please shatter the ice 
Shatter, (shatter)
Shatter the ice 
To reach me  

So much to learn 
For the fire that burns 
Inside and through me 
Much more to see
I must open to know 
My existence on show 
Is beyond performing 
A scripted venting

Still don’t feel me
Like I feel you
Can’t dig the being
To finally just be 
You keep fleeing 
Moments fleeting 

I shatter the ice 
Shatter, (shatter)
Shatter the ice 
To reach you  
Please shatter the ice 
Shatter, (shatter)
Shatter the ice 
To reach me   

Hope roller coasted 
Far ’n high to reap 
A divine love hosted
Between us to keep 
Forgive the fantasy 
That you save me 
Good intention shards 
Tore right through me
With cold dark remarks

Still don’t feel me
Like I feel you
Can’t dig the being
To finally just be 
You insist seeing
Triggers for freezing

I shatter the ice 
Shatter, (shatter)
Shatter the ice 
To reach you  
Please shatter the ice 
Shatter, (shatter)
Shatter the ice 
To reach me 

Back to the fire 
Intensify my desire  
Pain melts away  
Conviction renews  
Nothing to say  
A new way to view
A new form to make
For me and you 

Did you feel me?
Like I feel you
Do you feel the being
To finally just be?
I see us insist for 
Triggers of connecting 

We shatter the ice 
Shatter, (shatter)
Shatter the ice 
For the reaching  
We shatter the ice
Shatter, (shatter)
Shatter the ice 
We are reaching

Echoes dig deep  
Intentions persevere  
Ice begins its weep 
Tears of joy 
For the sound 
Of love begging 
To be found  

We shatter the ice 
Shatter, (shatter)
Shatter the ice 
For the reaching  
We shatter the ice
Shatter, (shatter)
Shatter the ice 
We are reaching

Reach

The rapid evolution of AI and all tech is clashing with the definition of what it means to be an artist, to create and to deliver meaningful value to ourselves and each other. 

This song calls out for a humbling to embrace the opportunities, temper the judgement and to allow new dynamics of expression and allow the adventure of where it lands, how it continues to evolve for a new balance of a sustainable value exchange. I see creativity and artistry to become a part of each human's way to express their purpose and emotion. 

The tech is far from perfect and may never truly get there, but it does deliver a platform that is truly spectacular and only keeps getting better. This song was frustrating because I could not get production with AI to avoid over-production and what I consider unnecessary layers of sounds. At least this is a kick ass demo for a future version cleaner and more refined. 

Joy Waves Lyrics 

You want the best for me 
So, I flow for you to see
In my proudest moments 
You’re neither felt or keen  
To express in the present 
How you experienced me 
Left hanging for timely attention
Left joy, joined the confusion 

I look closely and I see
A person caught in fear 
Incapable of creating 
Fearing the exposing
Embarrassing mistakes 
Costly trembling takes 
Evidence for the fail 
Reasons to quickly bail 

All good for some 
All bad for others 
But who knows?
Who knows?
Follow your heart 
Let passion drive you 
And let truth do  
The heavy lifting 

Flow for your purpose 
Stay true to your service 
Keep finding ways
To ride the joy waves  

Just ride the joy waves 
Ride (ride them high)
Just ride the joy waves 
Ride them high (Real high) 

Between black ’n white worlds 
Be petty or be understanding 
Driven by the desire to serve  
How do I balance the dividing?
Exit its fear while holding on 
To the pained eyes that roll 
Grasping for significance 
With perfection insistence 

All good for some 
All bad for others 
But who knows?
Who knows?
Follow your heart 
Let passion drive you 
And let truth do  
The heavy lifting 

Flow for your purpose 
Stay true to your service 
Keep finding ways
To ride the joy waves  

Just ride the joy waves 
Ride (ride them high)
Just ride the joy waves 
Ride them high (Real high)

I look closely and I see
A person caught in fear 
Incapable of a new race 
Competing for space 
Troubled by a new face
Costly hesitation takes 
Complacency centre stage
In a cloak ’n dagger game

All good for some 
All bad for others 
But who knows?
Who knows?
Follow your heart 
Let passion drive you 
And let truth do  
The heavy lifting 

Flow for your purpose 
Stay true to your service 
Keep finding ways
To ride the joy waves  

Just ride the joy waves 
Ride (ride them high)
Just ride the joy waves 
Ride them high (Real high)

Those flexing creative prestige 
Frowning at unconventional ways 
That surf the waves of innovation 
Creating light speed exhilaration 
Worried to lose what they don’t have 
Yet right here, right now, it’s 
All at our fingertips 

All good for some 
All bad for others 
But who knows?
Who knows?
Follow your heart 
Let passion drive you 
And let truth do  
The heavy lifting 

Flow for your purpose 
Stay true to your service 
Keep finding ways
To ride the joy waves  

Just ride the joy waves 
Ride (ride them high)
Just ride the joy waves 
Ride them high (Real high)  

The fans motivate  
The haters motivate  
The true creators 
Respect the balance  

Just ride the joy waves 
Ride (ride them high)
Just ride the joy waves 
Ride them high (Real high)

Just ride the joy waves 
Ride (ride them high)
Just ride the joy waves 
Ride them high (Real high)

Joy Waves

I was worried about releasing this track - but my tight circle of friends loved it so much, I realised that my intentions for the song's message landed well :) 

Emotional Damage Lyrics 

Oh what a day 
I'm feeling alive
Friends are okay 
Except for mine (ha!)
They’re so perfect
At tearing me apart 
Their special reject 
Still not sure why 

Never gonna see me cry
I’m keeping my cool
But inside, I'm asking why 
I feel like such a fool
Gotta protect what’s left
Of my sad ‘n sorry image 
Forget what caused
My emotional damage 

Emotional damage
All that triggering 
Keeps me shivering  
Emotional damage
All that triggering 
From the sniggering 
Emotional damage 
Emotional damage 

Tryin’ retail therapy
Made my wallet too thin
Bought shoes that don’t fit me
Now I'm shabby ‘n broke again
Broken heart, broken ego
Got myself more shame pain 
For my therapist to explain

Never gonna see me cry
I’m keeping my cool
But inside, I'm asking why 
I feel like such a fool
Gotta protect what’s left
Of my sad ‘n sorry image 
Forget what caused
My emotional damage 

Emotional damage
All that triggering 
Keeps me shivering  
Emotional damage
All that triggering 
From the sniggering 
Emotional damage 
Emotional damage 

Check out my hurt feelings, brother 
Check out my hurt feelings, sister 
I got just one feeling left 
Who’s the lucky one to take it?
Ouch, you hurt my feeling
(Damn, look at that. No feeling left!)
I’m gonna bottle ‘em up, I am
And put a cork in it 
This will work out just fine! 
Pop! (Pop!) 
Oops! (Woops!)

Never gonna see me cry
I’m keeping my cool
But inside, I'm asking why 
I feel like such a fool
Gotta protect what’s left
Of my sad ‘n sorry image 
Forget what caused
My emotional damage 

Emotional damage
All that triggering 
Keeps me shivering  
Emotional damage
All that triggering 
From the sniggering 
Emotional damage 
Emotional damage 

[Outro]
What you up to?
I was on Facebook marketplace 
What you buying?
Oh, I’m selling some
Emotional baggage (hahaha)
And it's going cheap! Hahahaha

Emotional Damage

I wrote a break up letter to Limitation and it was a hit with friends - so I thought it about time it transformed into lyrics and this is how this song happened last night. The title changed from Dear Limitation to Just Good Friends :) Guess who I ended up hooking up with? 

Just Good Friends Lyrics 

Dear Limitation, I do confess
I put you on a pedestal as my pest
You were my shield, my rock, my wall
That wasn’t enough, so I made you my all

If I’d only sat and heard your voice
Not smothered you as my only choice
To be just friends crushed my soul
But it was the only way to make me whole

I need to stay safe, but must take flight 
Embraced you too well, a grip so tight
Though with cliffs ‘n storms, take my call
But I get it now, you’re not my all

Dear Limitation
It’s so good we are finally 
Just good friends 
Thank you, limitation
It’s so, so good, we are finally
Just good friends 

I’ve made new friends, you’d be proud to know
Courage, Failure, Wisdom—they help me grow
Criticism’s sharp, Opinion’s loud
But they balance my steps, I know that now

They’re teaching me what you always knew
That falling’s fine if I rise anew
So I thank you, for keeping me safe
And letting me run at my own pace 

If I’d only sat and heard your voice
Not smothered you as my only choice
To be just friends crushed my soul
But it was the only way to make me whole

I need to stay safe, but must take flight 
Embraced you too well, a grip so tight
Though with cliffs ‘n storms, take my call
But I get it now, you’re not my all

Dear Limitation
It’s so good we are finally 
Just good friends 
Thank you, limitation
It’s so, so good, we are finally
Just good friends 

Limitless calls, now that’s a view!
But Balance whispers; keep your cool 
Don’t trample the details, it’s not a race
Find true purpose to sustain the space 

I need to stay safe, but must take flight 
Embraced you too well, a grip so tight
Though with cliffs ‘n storms, take my call
But I get it now, you’re not my all

Dear Limitation
It’s so good we are finally 
Just good friends 
Thank you, limitation
It’s so, so good, we are finally
Just good friends 

Dear Limitation, glad we’re still close
Steady hands makes for a fine host 
But I’ll spread my wings, take the odd fall
With you in good measure, I can have it all
I got to go, Balance is waiting
We just got engaged! 

Dear Limitation
It’s so good we are finally 
Just good friends 
Thank you, limitation
It’s so, so good, we are finally
Just good friends 


Roller Coaster Love

Soul Bell Lyrics   

To reach me is not easy
I’m busy being tough
Too busy trying too hard
To be what? Never enough 

Who’s the authority of my approval? 
Who’s ordained with perfect vision? 
Who’s threatening my removal
On this hoop jumping mission?

In a battle with this crazy world 
Is a cruel fight with who exactly?
Must deal with my judgement hurl
That inner deep unsatisfactory

I’m not allowed to look there
I can never have the time
Flaws and failure if I dare
Is the only thing I’ll find.

Yet I exist, I persist,
So confusing, so deluding
Dividing myself from divine right
Busy excusing and exuding

Lies, lies, lies about 
Self, self, self
Cry, cry, deny all
Help, help, help
Lies, lies, lies about
Self, self self
Can’t deny, it’s time
To ring my soul bell!  

Time for my fervour
What must be true?
Can’t look any further
Than my creation in view

What God-Universe is in me?
How truly loving must it be?
Would it choose my absence?
Or am I an eternal substance?
 
I am taking a risk on the latter
Just be me, I already matter
No longer trapped in roles
with self defeating goals

The lies, lies, lies now end
Truth does finally set me free
To view all with the omni lens
Precious artists and artworks in progress

Soul Bell

The lyrics came out fast - the moment I heard a groove, it put me in a mood to express the kind of love that every person on the planet in their right mind craves to receive. 

So Beautiful Lyrics 

I am wondering about 
Where we'll be 
In 50 years from now 
Will you love me then 
Like you love me now?
Because I sure hope so 
I know for sure
I am going to love you 
Even more, 50 years from now 

You are so beautiful 
More than you will ever know 
Not because of how you look 
But how you feel about life 
It's so attractive and I
And I, I just can't resist 
How can I resist?
I am not insane 
To not love you is pain 

You are so beautiful 
(So beautiful)
And in a sane world 
You must be beautiful 
(So Beautiful)
To everyone else 
So beautiful 
You are so beautiful (Beautiful) 

I understand time ages us 
But I do not care 
I can't wait to love 
Every age of you
Every stage of you 
Every stage an opportunity 
To love you differently 
What is love for, if not to love
Someone that is you 

You are so beautiful 
More than you will ever know 
Not because of how you look 
But how you feel about life 
It's so attractive and I
And I, I just can't resist 
How can I resist 
I am not insane 
To not love you is pain 

You are so beautiful 
So beautiful to me
And in a sane world 
You must be beautiful 
To everyone else 
So beautiful (Beautiful)
You are so beautiful

Count my lucky stars 
Sometimes I do get dark
The thought of losing you 
Drives me to heavy place 
Sorry I get insecure 
I know love is held back 
In those times
And you deserve
We deserve 
Love to shine, not dim

And I daydream about you 
When I'm not with you 
Do you wanna know why?
Because you represent 
What I wish to be 
And you chose me 
And I accept the love
I accept the love 
And that love is ever so sweet

You are so beautiful 
(So beautiful to me)
And in a sane world 
You must be beautiful 
To everyone else 
So beautiful (Beautiful) 
You are so beautiful 

(Uh eeyah)
I am not insane 
But that’s conditional 
On me being with you 

You are so beautiful 
(So beautiful to me)
And in a sane world 
You must be beautiful 
To everyone else 
So beautiful (Beautiful) 
You are so beautiful (Beautiful) 

Uh hoo, oh 
Uh hoo, oh 
Uh hoo, oh (uh ahhh)
Uh hoo, oh

So Beautiful

We all have these people in our lives, right? LOL This is my therapy creating songs that validate my heebee jeebee struggles. :) 

Circus Lyrics 

Roll up! Roll up!
Do we have a show for you!
Nothing to fear 
The circus is here 

Let the show begin
Those words do spin 
Lips loose, in motion 
A word play commotion 
Where do I stand?
What is this rant?
It’s this, no, its that
Let’s go, then fall flat? (What is that?)

I hear what you say
Did you send logic away? 
What angle are you performing?
‘Cause my spider senses are peaking

Am I in a circus? 
Is this meant to be fun?
You pretend you’re earnest
And I pretend to be dumb
Is this your circus?
How did I get in? 
What ticket did I win
For the hocus pocus?
(Gotta get outta here!)

You parade big smiles 
With nervous laughs 
Doublespeak for miles 
Confuse first with last 
Giving me the shivers 
Pulling excuses out of hats  
Your smoke and mirrors 
Obscure the facts 

I hear what you say
Did you send logic away? 
What angle are you performing?
‘Cause my spider senses are peaking

Am I in a circus? 
Is this meant to be fun?
You pretend you’re earnest
And I pretend to be dumb
Is this your circus?
How did I get in? 
What ticket did I win
For the hocus pocus?
(Gotta get outta here!)

There are redeeming features 
Like all God’s creatures 
You dress rather well 
Juicy tall tales you tell 
Entertaining for a clown
Without substance to be found 
You are good for a laugh 
And a forged autograph 

When you draw the curtain
That wizard is so short 
I am now rather certain 
Of the brand distort 
You give me the creeps
My cringe is what you reap
Got the heebee jeebees 
Skin crawling from the sleaze 

I hear what you say
Did you send logic away? 
What angle are you performing?
‘Cause my spider senses are peaking

Am I in a circus? 
Is this meant to be fun?
You pretend you’re earnest
And I pretend to be dumb
Is this your circus?
How did I get in? 
What ticket did I win
For the hocus pocus?
(Gotta get outta here!)

And the next act is 
The truth contorter 
Extraordinaire 

You’re giving me
The heebee jeebees 
You’re giving me
The heebee jeebees 
You’re giving me
The heebee jeebees 
You’re giving me
The heebee jeebees

Circus

Growing up, we sure learn how infatuation and lust complicates love, don't we? But it's all part of being human, the roller coaster of emotions. We should not regret any of it. What did you think of my made up word in the song? Let me know ;) 

Love or Lust Lyrics 

When I see you walk by 
I get tense, feel uptight
You’re so hot, what a sight
I look away, I’m just too shy

You look at me, you say hi 
I freak out, what to do?
I say hi, acting all fine 
Flipping out, getting high 

Is this love or is this lust 
Do I care? Not so much
It feels so good, what a rush
Too late now, can’t stop the blush 

Is this love, or is this lust?
Is this love, or is this lust?
Is this love, or is this lust?
Is this love, or is this lust?

Is this love, or is this lust?
Is this love, or is this lust?
Is this love, or is this lust?
Is this love, or is this lust?

You are so cute, I can’ lie 
What to do? You are my light 
I ask you out, you say yes 
What do I do? Not sure now

You excite me too much 
I’m in a serious crush 
In an emotional hold up 
A hostage to your love 

Is this love or is this lust 
Do I care? Not so much
It feels so good, what a rush
Too late now, can’t stop the blush 

Is this love, or is this lust?
Is this love, or is this lust?
Is this love, or is this lust?
Is this love, or is this lust?

Is this love, or is this lust?
Is this love, or is this lust?
Is this love, or is this lust?
Is this love, or is this lust?

My body has lost control 
Where I end up, don’t wanna know 
Is this love? It’s so trippy great 
Do not stop, for heaven’s sake 
I have lost this feeling enough 
This intensity must go on 
Without love, life is too rough 
With love, I feel so strong 
But is this lust? Hmmmmmm

Is this love or is this lust 
Do I care? Not so much
It feels so good, what a rush
Too late now, can’t stop the blush 

Is this love, or is this lust?
Is this love, or is this lust?
Is this love, or is this lust?
Is this love, or is this lust?

I will soon enough find out  
What will last or flicker out 
Love, an impressive marathon 
Lust, a wild transact-acon 
While I love this current ride 
Deep down, I cannot hide 
I want love, not lust 
I want us to never bust 
 
Please be love not just lust 
Do I care? Yes, very much
It does feel good, what a rush
Am I asking for too much?

Please be love, not just lust
Please be love, not just lust
Please be love, not just lust
Please be love, not just lust

I just can’t get you outta my mind 
But lately, I just can’t get you out 
Of my heart
My heart 
Ahhhhhhhh

Love Or Lust

Love or Lust

Imagine a world without the gossip - where we confronted those we had issues with and talked it out, enforced boundaries instead of dividing and conquering. I can dream, can't I, or preferably sing it :) 

Gossip Lyrics 

Whispering shadows 
Spreading the shallow 
Talking on pillows  
Wicked bed fellows 
Competing to win 
Hiding their sins 
With wicked grins 
And wagging chins 

He said, she said 
What are we fed?
Lies on a vine 
A venomous ride 
To choose a side 
Or run and hide 

Gossip queen and king 
What do you bring?
Superior vision 
For nothing but division 
Gossip Queen 
Plotting unseen
Gossip King 
These words stink
What are we missing 
Tripping on the dissing 
Illuminate the love 
Free the hate with the doves 

The hurt they cause 
More sinister than Jaws 
Conjuring the flaws 
Flappy lips spread sauce 
Facing two faces 
What shameless cases 
No more tragic falling  
For their divide calling 

He said, she said 
What are we fed?
Lies on a vine 
A venomous ride 
To choose a side 
Or run and hide 

Gossip queen and king 
What do you bring?
Superior vision 
For nothing but division 
Gossip Queen 
Plotting unseen
Gossip King 
These words stink
What are we missing 
Tripping on the dissing 
Illuminate the love 
Free the hate with the doves 

Sharpen the radar 
For words without matter  
Heighten the tracker 
For motivation agenda 
Confront the hate 
Don’t buy silence
Serve facts on a plate 
End the dissent 

He said, she said 
What are we fed?
Lies on a vine 
A venomous ride 
To choose a side 
Or run and hide 

Gossip queen and king 
What do you bring?
Superior vision 
For nothing but division 
Gossip Queen 
Plotting unseen
Gossip King 
These words stink
What are we missing 
Tripping on the dissing 
Illuminate the love 
Free the hate with the doves 

Think it through 
What do they get
Out of you?
To hate another 
While blindly loyal 
To their thunder
Stop the blunder 
End the plunder 

He said, she said 
What are we fed?
Lies on a vine 
A venomous ride 
To choose a side 
Or run and hide 

Gossip queen and king 
What do you bring?
Superior vision 
For nothing but division 
Gossip Queen 
Plotting unseen
Gossip King 
These words stink  
What are we missing 
Tripping on the dissing 
Illuminate the love 
Free the hate with the doves

Gossip

Confession time - I am against tyranny and controlling governments that end up self serving when they get too big. 

Fill Thy Cup Lyrics 

Millions of years 
Of evolution my dear  
Brought us right here 
To this point, you see?
Our biology evolving 
Our bodies refining 
Microcosms deciding 
A system surviving
(Yeaaaahhhh!) 

Yet the middle men
Re-appear yet again 
To save us from bad 
Save us from evil, lad! 
Terrorists among us 
Viruses inside us 
Climate disrupters 
Boogie men will get us! 
(Ahhhhhhhh!)

Get back to math 
Do the sums add up?
Get back to maps
Do the dots join up?
They demand over trust
Do your instincts flare up?
Or are you zombified 
Come on, please wake up!

What the fuck? Just wake up
What the fuck? Don’t stay stuck 
What the fuck? Get back up
Fill thy cup, not their cup! 

They see your cash 
They salivate hard 
Gaslight your past 
Feed you crap 
Propaganda media 
Food that’s inferior 
Drug pushing hysteria 
Who’s the leader?

Get back to math 
Do the sums add up?
Get back to maps
Do the dots join up?
They demand over trust
Do your instincts flare up?
Or are you zombified 
Come on, please wake up!

What the fuck? Just wake up
What the fuck? Don’t stay stuck 
What the fuck? Get back up
Fill thy cup, not their cup! 

Our bodies heal
When we’re in balance 
They preach extremes 
To poison our chalice 
Where is our divinity?
It’s in our vicinity  
Reclaim our identity 
As masters of destiny 
 
The stakes are high 
They’re playing hard
Play it smart 
Against greedy oligarchs 
They want your mind
To control your sight 
To profit on lies 
These hungry parasites 

Get back to math 
Do the sums add up?
Get back to maps
Do the dots join up?
They demand over trust
Do your instincts flare up?
Or are you zombified 
Come on, please wake up!

What the fuck? Just wake up
What the fuck? Don’t stay stuck 
What the fuck? Get back up
Fill thy cup, not their cup! 

What the fuck? Just wake up
What the fuck? Don’t stay stuck 
What the fuck? Get back up
Fill thy cup, not their cup! 

Fill Thy Cup

We wish for all our young to find their strength and voice through the challenges of their teens. 

Your Voice Lyrics   

Crying eyes, hard shut 
You still found my thumb 
And squeezed it firmly 
The start of our story
That moment you were born 
A miracle to our world
That day I had sworn
To protect you, baby girl

Yet, I noticed very early 
You were a cautious one 
I fished, throwing burley 
As you climbed rocks for fun
I said and did nothing 
Knowing you’d be fine 
Standing between gull and fish 
You protected our dinner dish 

We thought we protected you 
You did conquer cliffs 
But there was more to do 
Dealing with sociopaths 
Should have seen them coming
Conditioned for the shunning
You were their bait 
They maimed your faith 

A fate we had to change 
Unfitting for a heart so pure 
We were too slow to chase 
Ideas lodged to endure
We watched the pain set in 
Taking over your life force 
Our tools unable to get in
Trampled on a dark course  

Too precious for lies 
To be deceived like this 
Too resilient and wise 
To be kept down like this
Finding your substance 
Without losing your kindness
A new song to sing 
Ending the lonely silence  

You found your voice 
Strong and sweet 
You found your voice
To cool the heat  
You found your voice 
To make your presence felt 
A voice that now leads  
Hearts to melt 

You had to realise 
All on your own 
That breaking free 
Is not done alone 
Though the choice 
Was to be made by you  
Making a difference 
Starts with you 

Too precious for lies 
To be deceived like this 
Too resilient and wise 
To be kept down like this
Finding your substance 
Without losing your kindness
A new song to sing 
Ending the lonely silence  

You found your voice 
Strong and sweet 
You found your voice
To cool the heat  
You found your voice 
To make your presence felt 
A voice that leads  
Hearts to melt 

What a platform
You now enjoy 
In great form
Finding your joy
Taking your ups
With your downs 
Building self-love 
So much found 

Too precious for lies 
To be deceived like this 
Too resilient and wise 
To be kept down like this
Finding your substance 
Without losing your kindness
A new song to sing 
Ending the lonely silence  

You found your voice 
Strong and sweet 
You found your voice
To cool the heat  
You found your voice 
To make your presence felt 
A voice that leads  
Hearts to melt

Sweet, sweet voice 
Strong ‘n carefree 
Sweet, sweet voice 
Knowing how to be  
Sweet, sweet voice 
Standing tall 
Sweet, sweet voice 
Handling it all 
In great company

Your Voice

This addiction is serious! 

My Sugar Fix Lyrics 

Mmmmmmmm
Ahhhhhhhhhhh
More please 
More please! 

I need a better feeling 
I need it now 
Book me a meeting 
End this chocolate drought 
That soothing comfort 
Please now enhance
With that swift lift 
To a buzzing dance 

The quick fix fits
I need my escape 
The sweet spot hit 
To wipe this pain    

Gimme, gimme, gimme
Sugar, sugar, sugar 
Sweeten my mind 
Make me fine 
You’re so kind
Gimme, gimme, gimme
Sugar, sugar, sugar 
Help me hide 
Stay by my side 
Gimme, Gimme
My sugar fix 

What do I want?
A perfect home
Give me a wand 
Make it all known 
Everything shown 
So nothing’s wrong 
Like a perfect font
What!? No?! (Then…)
 
Gimme, gimme, gimme
Sugar, sugar, sugar 
Sweeten my mind 
Make me fine 
You’re so kind
Gimme, gimme, gimme
Sugar, sugar, sugar 
Help me hide 
Stay by my side 
Gimme, Gimme
My sugar fix 

Quick! Give me a bit (Mmmmmm)
I need my escape (Ahhhhhhh)
The sweet spot hit (Mmmmmm)
To wipe my pain 

I’m the one eyed fleeter   
The single track seeker 
The old track keeper 
Staying the sleeper 
I can’t go deeper 
A sugar bowl feeder 
The Instant hit leader
Making it sweeter (So…)

Gimme, gimme, gimme
Sugar, sugar, sugar 
Sweeten my mind 
Make me fine 
You’re so kind
Gimme, gimme, gimme
Sugar, sugar, sugar 
Help me hide 
Stay by my side 
Gimme, Gimme
My sugar fix 

Another quick fix (Mmmmmm)
I need my escape (Ahhhhhhh)
The sweet spot hit (Mmmmmm)
Wipe this pain  (Ahhhhhhh)

It’s not my fault 
Life’s so bitter 
A constant assault 
On my sensitivity meter 
Patience no more
To face my pain
I’ll sweeten my fall 
And fake the gain 

Gimme, gimme, gimme
Sugar, sugar, sugar 
Sweeten my mind 
Make me fine 
You’re so kind
Gimme, gimme, gimme
Sugar, sugar, sugar 
Help me hide 
Stay by my side 
Gimme, Gimme
My sugar fix 

Another quick fix  (Mmmmmm)
A better escape (Ahhhhhhh)
A sweeter spot hit (Mmmmmm)
I’m running again (Ahhhhhhh)

Sweet spot hit 
Make it fit 
Plug the bit 
That feels like shit 
Mmmmmmmm
Ahhhhhhhhhhh
More please 
Sweet spot hit 
Make it fit 
Plug the bit 
That feels like shit 
Mmmmmmmm
Ahhhhhhhhhhh
More please

My Sugar Fix

If you look closely, we are all on the addictions spectrum - we just do so many things from sugar, to thrill seeking activities, taking risks, gambling, drinking, drugs, sex, and on it goes - to plug a hole left by a lack of deeper purpose. Imagine what waits for us on the other side of these addictions.

Addiction Rides Lyrics 

Take me on 
Those little rides
Where feelings  
Get so satisfied 
Where hope lives on
Through the highs
Where we sure do run 
From heavy sighs 

Hit me up, I’m ready again 
Roll the dice, my special friend 
Sweet treat time, a glass of wine 
Bump ’n grind, now unwind 
A cigarette to ease the tension 
Bungee jump for another sensation 

Addiction rides
(Ah, ah, ah haaa) 
To run and hide 
(Ah, ah, ah haaa)
Addiction rides 
(Ah, ah, ah haaa)
To feel alive 
(Ah, ah, ah haaa)
Addiction rides 
On the surface 
With no purpose 

I press a button 
To create my hope 
A fleeting second 
To align my rows 
Three in a row 
Win pretend dough 
Quickly back to low 
Repeat the show 

Hit me up, I’m ready again 
Roll the dice, my special friend 
Sweet treat time, a glass of wine 
Bump ’n grind, now I’m fine 
A cigarette to ease the tension 
Bungee jump for another sensation 

Addiction rides
(Ah, ah, ah haaa) 
To run and hide 
(Ah, ah, ah haaa)
Addiction rides 
(Ah, ah, ah haaa)
To feel alive 
(Ah, ah, ah haaa)
Addiction rides 
On the surface 
With no purpose 

What am I doing
That I can’t stop?
What is this feeling
I have to drop?
Why am I running?
It’s never ending
Where is the meaning?
So tired pretending

Nowhere to go 
Don’t scare me so 
One thing I know 
Is chasing hope 
Accept the dope 
Numb the pain 
Feels insane 
(So insane)  

Into a corner searching
The seconds for meaning
In no man’s land, drowning
No longer connecting
What am I fearing 
That’s got me reeling? 
I have had enough 
Of meaningless stuff 

Still stuck but can’t do this again 
Rolled the last dice, my patient friend 
Sweeter dreams, please be kind  
To feel deeply again, be truly fine 
I must confront the tension 
Ignite the heart vibrations 

Addiction rides 
I’m done alright  
Addiction rides 
I retire tonight 
Addiction rides 
I’m diving deeper 
For a purpose so much richer!  

Addiction rides 
I’m done alright  
Addiction rides 
I retire tonight 
Addiction rides 
I’m diving deeper 
For a purpose so much richer!  

Addiction Rides

I create music as a hobby and as a therapy and provide workshops for others to do that too, using AI to help produce tracks. I also create empowerment systems to help people at scale increase their confidence and resilience by engaging their adaptive nature and work towards living a purposeful life. While all my song lyrics are written by me, and some tracks come from my personal compositions including instrumentals that I add lyrics to, I use AI to merge these with songs I share with you here. It really makes you realise how important your own words are in a song.
