Ein Song über verpasste Chancen und die Einsicht, dass sich manche Gelegenheiten nur einmal im Leben ergeben. "Eine Andermal" ist meiner verstorbenen Chorleiterin gewidmet.

Here on earth all goes well
Here on earth all goes well
You might hear the odd explosion or two
But nothing much more to tell
It only took 10 commandments
To get us all in line
And except for a few goddammits
I’d say we’re doing fine
Here on earth we behave, rain or shine

Here on earth things are good
(good as gold, so I’m told)
Here on earth things are good 
No one much makes excuses
Or abuses “would, could, should”
Everyone’s full of ideas
How others should think and live
When humble pie’s on the menu
The pride we serve it with
We’re more than glad to give
If you’re a relative
Here on earth

Lost in space
Lit by a star
Our pal the moon
Is never far 
Follow the screams
That’s where we are

And should you need distraction 
Where else would you go
For laughs and loads of action
Here’s all you need to know
We put on quite a show
You’ll soon be all aglow
Yeah you get your dollar’s worth
You’ll be thankful for your birth
Here on earth

Here On Earth

Thoughts on overthinking
And I’ve done my share
A ton of overthinking
Often too much to bear
I wrestle away but never come out on top
Body exhausted but brain won’t stop

Looking back
As I’m wont to do
I can track
All this to you
Been trying to understand what went wrong
For so long

Overthinking rules me
I can’t break free
It’s myself that fools me
Into thinking I see
A line of thought that’ll lead me out
Of a mess of regrets, around a wall of doubt
There’s plan A
All the way to Zed
Bouncing round
Inside my head
I grab one and it splits into three

If I could see a future nearing
One with you appearing
That’s what I have sought
And without another thought I’d volunteer/ would decide
So please appear/To take that ride

And when I’m at the point of collapse
About to burn out my last synapse
To restore my mental state
Just once more I contemplate
A simple life lived simply by your side
It’s the one option I haven’t tried
It sure would be fun - not having lots
Of overthinking thoughts

LYRIC

Far along the beaten path
No end in sight 
What supplies we have are poor and running low
We’ve so far to go

Some split off
We’ve seen their camps
Maps they study by weakening lamps
The light will die out and then
They’ll join us again

We march on
It’s our purpose
 We march on
We endure thus we survive
And that’s our true goal
Stay alive

In the distance mountains loom
The darkening skies mean winter soon
We’ll find an old tree down
Build a fire to gather round
But not a shelter
We’ve lost that skill
Our arms are weak
As is our will
Besides we don’t have time
There are mountains we must climb

We march on
Tired but trudging
We march on
No use judging
Why we do
It’s just another day
to get through

Elders tell of a homeland
Their own elders told them of and
Maybe it’s all true
Who knows what they knew
But maybe it’s all true

The trail is lost
We’re on our own 
Our courage sapped
Our fear has grown
We can’t give into dread
Salvation lies ahead

So we march on….

(SCROLL DOWN FOR DELETED VERSES I WROTE IN SOME KIND OF FIT!)

You’ve got me where you want me		
What more can I say
You’ve got me where you want me
I wouldn’t have it any other way

It wasn’t as if I was some busy bee then
Pollen falling out of my hair   
Well I had my share		
Guess I had my share             
But did someone care?                           
Who was there to care?     
My heart grew weary
I told myself “dearie”
A true love is mighty rare


You pulled me out of hiding
You know that you did
You pulled me out of hiding
I admit I wasn’t well hid

I don’t claim that anyone called me reclusive
But no one really came round to check
Was it self neglect
Yeah it was self neglect
What did I expect?
What did I expect?
I couldn’t gain traction
Afraid to take action
You lifted me off the deck

You know what you did
You know what you did
Who you trying to kid
You know what you did

You told me ‘sit and listen’
The lecture was stern
You told me ‘sit and listen’
I know I've lots more to learn 
And then it’s your turn

You know what you did!
Got what you wanted
You know what you did
Who you trying to kid?
You know what you did

DELETED VERSES


You woke me from a slumber
I opened one eye lid
You woke me from a slumber
And then you know what you did

You worked me like field oxen
For my room and board
You worked me like field oxen
We both know whose ox got gored

You paint a pretty picture
Designed to entrance
You paint a pretty picture 
But come on - don’t call this romance 

you tossed me a banana 
said you might need a snack
you tossed me a banana 
an hour later - you wanted it back

you light me like a candle
As evening descends 
you light me like a candle 
Yeah a flame at both ends 
I recognize the message that sends

you rolled me like a barrel 
down a steep hill
you rolled…
i crushed poor jack and jill

You pinned me in the corner
Knocked me back on my heels
You pinned me in the corner
How do I deal with all of the feels?

You played me like a golf course
You know what you’ve done
You played me like golf course
Hope you’re happy with that hole-in-one

You led me to the stable
After a ride I won’t soon forget
You led me to the stable
I was still panting and wet

I struggled with my conscience 
with all my might
I struggled with my conscience 
You know who won that fight

You talked me out of talking
said it’s just between us
You talked me…
But I think they've all seen us

you ruined me for the others
if any might care
you ruined me…
You know they can’t compare

You Know What You Did

A song about a lost friendship

Standing in the fire 
by Lilli A. 

You were like a shadow
that followed me in the sun.
But when I stood in darkness,
Somehow you always were gone.

It hurts to let it go
like you did long time ago
when you dragged my name through muck and mire.
 
I'm standing in the fire. 
I am burning (inside)
and you’ve inflamed 
my pain.

I'm standing in the fire 
that you lit.
I’ve had enough of it it!
I quit (and I’ll walk away).
 
We were never right for each other.
I’ve learned the hard way, of course.
I blame myself for expecting too much.
My mind is trying to understand yours.

It's good to let it go.
Should've done so long time ago
when you dragged my name through muck and mire.

I'm standing in the fire. 
I am burning (inside)
and you’ve inflamed 
my pain.

I'm standing in the fire 
that you lit.
I’ve had enough of it it!
I quit.

I know they say never say never,
I just don’t see us together.
I don’t wanna see your face again
cause you are no longer my friend.
nana na naa na naa na na na
nana na naa na naa na na na.
I don’t wanna see your face again
cause you are no longer my friend.

I'm standing in the fire 
I'm standing in the fire 
I'm standing in the fire 
that you’ve inflamed.

I'm standing in the fire 
I'm standing in the fire 
I'm standing in the fire.
