Tell Me Why

nothing but stories is a quiet song about what remains.

About people we meet, places we leave, and the memories that follow us like shadows in soft light.
It’s a folk-inspired reflection on life and its fading edges — tender, grounded, and unafraid of silence.

Sometimes the most powerful stories are the ones we live without knowing it.


nothing but stories ist ein leiser Song über das, was bleibt.

Über Menschen, denen wir begegnen, Orte, die wir verlassen – und Erinnerungen, die uns wie Schatten im weichen Licht begleiten.
Ein von Folk inspirierter Blick auf das Leben und seine Ränder – zart, geerdet, und nicht scheu vor der Stille.

Manchmal sind es gerade die Geschichten, die wir nie erzählen wollten, die am meisten bedeuten.


nothing but stories

Wings Of Their Own is a heartfelt ballad by Dr. Elliot Lach reflecting on the bittersweet journey of parenthood, separation, and the quiet triumph of watching children grow into themselves. Inspired by themes from his book "Leaving the Nest: Why Do Our Children Leave?", this song is a gentle reminder that love doesn’t end with distance—it evolves with it.

Take the road with me tonight
I wanna hold you close in the dark of night
I wanna - see you again
'Cause I can't pass another sunset without you, my dear 

And I wanna hear your voice
'Cause it's been years since I left
But I still remember it
Oh, ohh
And I wanna see you dancing in the river
'Cause I'm tired of waiting for a shadow of the past
Oh, my dear 

And I feel like I'm fading away
If you join me a little too late, just
Throw my bones in a grave in front of the sunset
And let me rest 

And I wanna hear your voice
'Cause it's been years since I left
But I still remember it
Oh, ohh
And I wanna see you dancing in the river
'Cause I'm tired of waiting for a shadow of the past
Oh, my dear 

Here I am, and you know I do all I can
All these pills and all this alcohol got me slow
Ooh
Through the night, I call your name but its all in vain
I'll sit there and I'll wait until the stars fall out of the sky 

And I wanna hear your voice
'Cause it's been years since I left
But I still remember it
Oh, ohh
And I wanna see you dancing in the river
'Cause I'm tired of waiting for a shadow of the past
Oh, my dear

Shadows of your voice ( ft. tetrivoid )

Away I Go

“The Life We Never Lived” is a love song about a life that never happened.
It’s about the messy, quiet, imperfect years we sometimes dream of—burnt dinners, Sunday routines, unspoken arguments.
This song doesn’t mourn what was lost.
It aches for what could have been.

With vivid, poetic snapshots and a laid-back groove, it paints a picture of a relationship that only existed in the imagination—but feels more real than most memories.
For anyone who’s ever missed something they never had.


„The Life We Never Lived“ ist ein Lovesong über ein Leben, das nie stattgefunden hat.
Er erzählt von den kleinen, stillen Momenten, die nie passiert sind – von verbranntem Abendessen, Sonntagsritualen, unausgesprochenen Streits.

Es ist kein Lied über Verlust.
Es ist ein Lied über das, was hätte sein können.


The Life We Never Lived

Where the War Birds Sleep

A quiet song with a strong heart.
Lara Wolff captures the beauty of letting go without bitterness – gentle, grounded, and honest.
Her voice carries the calm after the storm, with every word landing exactly where it should.


Ein leiser Song mit starkem Kern.
Lara Wolff erzählt vom Loslassen ohne Groll – sanft, klar und ganz bei sich.
Ihre Stimme klingt wie Ruhe nach dem Sturm – und jedes Wort trifft genau.

Could If I Wanted

“No Regrets” is a nostalgic, poetic song that captures the fleeting beauty of youthful freedom and reckless love. With vivid imagery and heartfelt storytelling, Lara Wolff looks back at moments that were never meant to last—but still mattered deeply. The lyrics celebrate imperfection, spontaneity, and the kind of nights that leave echoes in our memory. It’s not about what lasted—it’s about what felt real. No regrets.

„No Regrets“ ist ein nostalgischer, poetischer Song über die flüchtige Schönheit jugendlicher Freiheit und unvernünftiger Liebe. Mit starken Bildern und ehrlichem Storytelling blickt Lara Wolff auf Momente zurück, die nie für die Ewigkeit gedacht waren – aber trotzdem viel bedeuteten. Die Lyrics feiern das Unperfekte, das Spontane, die Nächte, die in Erinnerung bleiben. Es geht nicht darum, was blieb – sondern was sich echt anfühlte. Keine Reue.

No Regrets

écoute ton coeur

A song about the folklore of a Red Breaked Chough (a bird) and its link to a smugglers curse in a story.

The Red-Beaked Watcher

“It Is What It Is” is a quiet, poetic reflection on loss, acceptance, and moving on.
Set to a laid-back Americana groove, the song tells a story of betrayal and resilience – without bitterness, without drama.
Just the river rolling, the wind in your hair, and the feeling that sometimes… that’s enough.

“It Is What It Is” ist ein ruhiger, poetischer Song über Verlust, Akzeptanz und das Weitergehen.
Getragen von einem entspannten Americana-Sound erzählt er von Enttäuschung und innerer Stärke – ohne Groll, ohne Drama.
Nur der Fluss, der weiterfließt, der Wind im Haar und das Gefühl: Manchmal ist das einfach genug.

It is what it is

I passed by the diner where we used to sit
Two cups on the counter, both losing their heat
Meanwhile the silence feels like a friend
It reminds me some roads just come to an end

It is what it is
No need to pretend
The river keeps rolling around every bend
I don’t owe the past
I don’t fear what I miss
I’m here, I’m alive
It is what it is

I found Betty‘s note folded under the bed
Said she loved me once, then left instead
Ran with a friend I thought I could trust
But the past is the past
And it crumbles to dust

It is what it is
No need to pretend
The river keeps rolling around every bend
I don’t owe the past
It don’t owe me a kiss
I’m here, I’m alive
It is what it is

There’s wind in my hair, the road feels clean
I’m done chasing ghosts, done asking what it means
No shadows behind me, no need to look back
Just the hum of silence, steady and black

It is what it is
I’ve got no regrets
The river keeps rolling, no signs, no threats
No pressure, no chains
No moment I miss
I’m home in myself
It is what it is
