Alone with My Thoughts is a raw, unflinching dive into the fractures of modern life — a heavy alternative rock record where personal battles collide with collective struggles. Each track is a confession, a warning, or a rallying cry, drenched in distortion and carried on riffs that hit as hard as the truths inside them.

The album opens with “In Search of Heroes,” a tragic yet defiant anthem about the everyday fight for dignity and decency. “Sunflowers Standing in Fire” takes resilience as its theme, turning the image of a flower rising from ashes into a symbol of unbreakable hope. “Love Rot” rips through the illusions of romance, exposing the chains, lies, and barbed wire of broken promises.

On “Imposter Syndrome,” isolation is sharpened to a blade — a robot behind a human face, lost in a crowd yet more alone than ever. “Dance Robot Dance” confronts the chaos of misinformation and the rise of machines, mocking our complacency as technology seizes the stage. “Pushing the Limits” explodes as a defiant anthem of persistence, scars and failures forged into fire that burns every obstacle away. The record closes with “My Best Friends the Dead,” a haunting reminder that the voices of the lost still speak — urging us to live, to savor, to resist the emptiness of wasted time.

Together, these songs form a cathartic portrait of a world teetering between collapse and rebirth, between despair and defiance. Alone with My Thoughts is heavy, haunting, and human — a soundtrack for those who battle in silence but refuse to break.

Imposter Syndrome

Verse
Why do I bother trying to convince you
You're such a goddamn cynic
That's not what you say when you're drunk and call me crying
You and I are both to blame
I'm not the only one you play
You're just a liar
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool

Chorus
I'm the greyhound
But I still run after you
And it's not like I didn't know you
No
I still run after you
I'm the greyhound
But I still run after you
And it's not like I didn't know you
No
I still run after you

Verse 2
I don't know why I try to convince you
I guess I can't help it
I mean
Have you seen you?
I can't blame the others for what I feel
You and I are both to blame
I'm not the only one you play
You're just a liar
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool

Chorus
I'm the greyhound
But I still run after you
And it's not like I didn't know you
No
I still run after you
I'm the greyhound
But I still run after you
And it's not like I didn't know you
No
I still run after you

Outro
I'm the greyhound
I'm the greyhound
I'm the greyhound
I'm the greyhound

Greyhound

Hypnotic

Within my shell...
Insulated.
My inner self...
Agitated.
All this chaos out there...
It’s like a sensory tide,
that keeps on churning.
Yet somewhere,
deep inside,
I feel a yearning...
even though I know

It’s so hard...
To be understood;
to walk the straight line,
with the rest of the herd.
It’s so hard...
But I’m still in the game.
There’s a spark in my heart,
glimmering through the shame.

My worried eyes...
Criticizing.
My weary mind...
Analyzing—
all this toxic fakeness,
that I just can’t seem to abide...
and my rage is burning.
Yet somehow,
deep inside,
I still feel that yearning...
even though I know

It’s so hard...
To be understood;
to walk the straight line,
with the rest of the herd.
It’s so hard...
but I’m still in the game.
There’s a spark in my heart,
glimmering through the shame.

I get tired of this constant striving,
lost inside these storms which never cease.
But at times, I’ll feel like I’m arriving;
like the puzzle finally fits the piece.

All thanks to that
persistent spark
within my heart,
driving me on
and on again,
especially when

It’s so hard...
To be understood;
to walk the straight line,
with the rest of the herd.
It’s so hard...
but I’m still in the game.
There’s a spark in my heart,
glimmering...

The presidents fell
There's a flood in the plains
And the animals yell
I just wanted some peace
But I'm starting to feel
Like the mountains could tell

[Chorus]
Mount Rushmore ´s collapsed
Mount Rushmore ´s collapsed
Mount Rushmore ´s collapsed
Mount Rushmore ´s collapsed

[Verse]
The men on the ground
There's a noise in the wind
And a deafening sound
We all looked at each other
I stared at my mother
And knew what she'd found

[Chorus]
Mount Rushmore collapsed
Mount Rushmore collapsed
Mount Rushmore collapsed
Mount Rushmore collapsed

[Bridge]
I had seen it before
In my eyes
And I could ignore
But not this time

[Chorus]
Mount Rushmore collapsed
Mount Rushmore collapsed
Mount Rushmore collapsed
Mount Rushmore collapsed
Mount Rushmore collapsed
Mount Rushmore collapsed
Mount Rushmore collapsed
Mount Rushmore collapsed

Mount Rushmore ´s Collapsed   #rushmore. # climatic change

Original song by Siouxsie and the Banshees, Songwriter's are Kenneth Morris, Susan Janet Ballion, John Gareth Mckay, Steven John Bailey

[Verse]
You dip your hands into my flesh
And say you won't reveal a scar
I must have faith in this procedure
It's a miracle...
it's a wonder

[Bridge]
A thousand hidden needles
In a thousand covered nerves
Stick pins in my receptacles
Look to your Voodoo doll, your mojo

[Chorus]
Staying alive at five
For you to cure my ailments
Another soul is saved
With your bogus medications

[Verse 2]
What color shall we have today?
Depends on how I feel you say
Consult your research on the media
See blue...
will calm my hysteria

[Chorus]
Staying alive at five
For you to cure my ailments
Another soul is saved
With your bogus medications

[Chorus 2]
Staying alive at five
With your empty containers
Another corpse ornaments your waiting room
A placebo effect reversed

(A placebo effect reversed)

(A placebo effect reversed)

[Outro]
A placebo effect
A placebo effect
Will you ever ever regret the placebo effect?
Can you ever ever forget the placebo effect?

As an author - composer, I like to sing, with my natural voice or slightly transformed with different devices, according to my mood. I also play all kinds of keyboards and a little bit of 6-string guitars, both acoustic and electric.I'm pretty old, but I've still got a fairly wide vocal range, though it's getting lower and lower.
I also have a small home studio called Vesuvius( thx Sufjan Stevens! )
I like to work alone, or with two or three partners, male or female, highly qualified.
And I get some much fun to discover amazing new talents on Soudcloud. That's why I follow more people than I'm followed by. I'm just too curious..
