All is Nothing 
Lyrics 
 (guitar riff I made on an old steel-stringer, then reconstructed in amplesounds acoustic martin plugin, and is not me playing)

V 1:
Out of this world, or out of my mind
One in a million, or one of a kind
Made in his picture, or part of my own
Blessed among the lonely, or cursed here alone

Chorus:
I had this dream where I saw all as nothing
And it made perfect sense to me
Am I insane to fear that all is nothing?
No space or time, just fantasy

V 2:
Wide awake or sound asleep
I always trust what I perceive
If I must wake up to recognize a dream
Awareness altered further could change everything

Chorus:
I had this dream where I saw all as nothing
And it made perfect sense to me
Am I insane to fear that all is nothing 
- Nothing but senses fooling me

Bridge:
Exist alone can only be he
Who's absolute and all-mighty

 If you're there and can hear me
Dear God are you lonely?
If  you are my lord and shepard
Was sheep like me - the best you could make - for company

V3:
Out of this world, not out of my mind
One in a million, not one of a kind
Made in his picture? Not part of my own
Blessed among the lonely - it's for the divine—
to carry the burden of being alone

Outro:
Dear God, my Lord:
I'll say a prayer for you.

Not Supposed to Happen

Oke this track... is one of the first I've made in FL (or at least the basic beat), and then it stayed on the shelve for 3 years or so xD. But better late then never! Yet another summer style song going on! (And I still stick to the 1 song per month yey! progression!)

Only trouble I had currently.... Is me writing quite a happy summer song bc it was still on the shelve and I enjoyed making it.... but my head is also somewhere else.... With everything going on in the world. Maybe I'm going to use those thoughts for the next project. In the mean time, let's stay nice to each other. Accept each other for who they are. Protect your loved ones, protect democracy. And if your in a country that's been plagued by war (Ukraine, Palestine) please stay safe. I hope one day everything will be alright again.

Cheers! ^^

Drei Uhr Licht

Es ist drei Uhr. Die Nacht ist noch da, aber sie zieht sich zurück – nicht fluchtartig, sondern wie jemand, der leise die Tür hinter sich schließt.
Der Hof liegt in Dämmerung getaucht. Ein Blau, das kein Himmel ist, sondern Zwischenraum. Die Feuerstelle glimmt noch, zwei Schatten sitzen dort – nicht wach, nicht schlafend. Nur gegenwärtig.
Zelle – nein, so wird er nicht mehr genannt. Jetzt ist er Teil, nicht Bezeichnung. Die Frau neben ihm blinzelt ins erste Licht, als könne man darin Zukunft sehen. Ihre Tasse ist leer, aber warm. Sein Stein liegt zwischen ihnen, nicht mehr als Zeichen, sondern als Teil des Bodens.
 Der Wald beginnt zu reden, anders als in der Nacht. Jetzt ist er fast freundlich, ein Rascheln wie Gespräch, ein Vogelruf wie Gruß.
Die Wagen glimmen noch – gelbe Vierecke in dunkler Struktur, wie Puzzlestücke von Leben. Darinnen: Atem, Matratzen, Nähe.
Der Hof? Er atmet tiefer. Nicht schwer. Nicht laut. Nur deutlich.
 In einem Riss nahe der Wendeltreppe ist das Moos gewachsen – über Nacht, wie etwas, das Zeit versteht.
Und Zelle – oder wer er jetzt ist – steht auf. Langsam, ehrfürchtig. Er streckt sich nicht, denn dieser Tag verlangt keine Körperhaltung. Er verlangt Präsenz.
„Es ist der Moment, in dem alles still wird, und gerade deshalb beginnt.“
Die Frau nickt. „Drei Uhr Licht,“ sagt sie. „Die Stunde, in der sogar der Verfall pausiert.“
Ein Vogel steigt über die Bäume. Nicht schnell. Nicht zielsicher. Aber als wüsste er: Heute wird neu geschrieben...

Fortsetzung folgt am nächsten Sonntag um 10h.

drei_uhr_licht

Home was full of landmines, each step unsure
Words like shrapnel, sharp and impure
The table shook when his shadow grew
We learned the script of what not to do

Eyes on the clock, hands never bold
A fragile child, too young to grow old
Walls held secrets, screams left their trace
We wore our silence like armor and grace

We’re written over, but never erased
Each line a layer, each wound interlaced
Ink from the past, yet here we persist
A palimpsest of scars and twists

I am the palimpsest, lines entwined
Old shadows whisper, but they’re redefined
Erase, rewrite, the page still holds
The story bends, but it’s never sold

The past lives on in subtle refrains
A flinch at kindness, the weight of chains
I scan the faces, I read the air
Still braced for storms that aren’t really there

His voice lingers in the back of my head
A phantom editor of words unsaid
Even love feels like a test to pass
A trembling echo in fragile glass

We’re written over, but never erased
Each line a layer, each wound interlaced
Ink from the past, yet here we persist
A palimpsest of scars and twists

I am the palimpsest, lines entwined
Old shadows whisper, but they’re redefined
Erase, rewrite, the page still holds
The story bends, but it’s never sold

The ink may bleed, but my hand is steady
The future waits, the pen is ready
What was a prison now feels like grace
I’ll draw new maps on the same old space

I am the palimpsest, bold and free
A story unbound, still writing me

Palimpsest

Slip N Slide centers the feelings of pain surrounding heartbreak. These are the very emotions that paved my entry into making music. We've all been through our love trials and breakups, and if you haven't yet...it's probably on its way. All I know is, it showed me the way and made me who I am today. Know who is good to keep around and know who drains your energy. Hope yall vibe with this one. 

Slip 'N Slide

And all of the signs were in my face 
That I should be runnin' away 
And I thought that I had a clue 
But you made me feel like a fool

Breaking All My Rules

On the day I turned 30, I decided I didn’t just want to celebrate a birthday — I wanted to make a statement. That’s why I dropped the biggest song of my career, Dope Fiend.

This track is everything I’ve been building toward: a chaotic mix of alternative rock and rap, driven by shredding guitars and raw energy, but also wrapped in a surreal, modern edge that feels like the future of alt music. Think heavy riffs colliding with hypnotic grooves — something that feels nostalgic and brand new at the same time.

But what really makes this song stand apart is that it marks my first industry feature — Darkrose, a major artist who I’ve respected for years and now had the honor of collaborating with. Chalk that up also with a verse from Crimson REd and we in there!! — on my 30th birthday, no less — making this release more than just another track. It’s a milestone.

Dope Fiend is reckless, addictive, and unapologetically loud. It’s the kind of song that doesn’t fit neatly into playlists, because it wasn’t made to. It was made to cut through the noise. This is the record that defines where I’ve been, and where I’m going next.

So here’s to 30 years alive, and a brand-new chapter starting with the loudest, most unapologetic song I’ve ever made. Welcome to Dope Fiend.

DOPE FIEND (feat. Darkrose)

Bettina Busch - „Sag ja oder nein“ ist eine eindringliche Ballade über die Sehnsucht nach Klarheit in der Liebe. Schluss mit Rätseln, Spielen und halben Wahrheiten – es geht um den Mut, eine echte Entscheidung zu treffen. Mit gefühlvollem Gesang und kraftvollen Gitarren entsteht ein Song, der zwischen Verletzlichkeit und Stärke pendelt.
Ein Track für alle, die in Beziehungen kein „Vielleicht“ mehr akzeptieren.

Bettina Busch - “Sag ja oder nein” is a haunting ballad about the longing for clarity in love. No more riddles, games, or half-truths – it’s about the courage to make a real decision. With deep, emotional vocals and powerful guitars, this song moves between vulnerability and strength.

Sag ja oder nein

The Eye

Captivity is not about heartbreak — it’s a chilling descent into real psychological imprisonment. Identity is stripped away, reality rewritten, and freedom itself begins to feel dangerous.

Drawing on captivity trauma theory, Stockholm Syndrome, and behavioral conditioning, Exzenya transforms her voice and production into a cinematic portrait of control and isolation. The track opens with a haunting reinterpretation of the folk refrain “Down in the valley…” delivered in a rare, resonant low vocal, paired with hollow wind that feels like a broken transmission through an old radio. From there, the song builds into a dark, minor-key arrangement where vocals climb into plaintive highs, mirroring the push and pull of despair and yearning.

Captivity isn’t just a song — it’s a haunting story set to music. Opening with the ghostly echo of “Down in the valley” and a chilling wind, Exzenya pulls listeners into a dark world of isolation and control. Her deep, resonant lows and emotional highs make every line feel like a cry from the inside of a locked room. Cinematic, eerie, and unforgettable — this is storytelling that feels like a film score trapped inside a pop song.
