So, I live on a little rock in the Ionian, where any news is big news and anything counts as doing something worthwhile. I put up a notice saying I needed some participants in this video and these kind folk came out to help, there's a lawyer, a builder, 3 teachers, a musician, a fashion designer, a barman/body builder, a truck driver und Ich.

Am I Broken?
(C) 2014 Erika Bach. All Rights Reserved
.
I keep my windows shut
My blinds down
And my head deep in the sand
Don't ask me to be sociable
You know I couldn't give a damn
If they come knocking at my door
Tell them I'm dead and gone to heaven
Tell them don't telephone
I won't be resurrected til 11

Chorus:
Am I broken?
On my knees again

Always someone wanting a pound of flesh that I don't have to give them
Wanting too much
Too little
Not enough to make my life worth living
If they ask questions I can't answer tell them I have lost my hearing
Tell them don't write it down
Because to me all words have lost their meaning

Chorus:
Am I broken?
On my knees again
Leave me open
Let the feeling in

When I say fuck 
They run at me with many sharpened knives and scissors
I give them sweets but the taste I leave in their mouth 
Is way too bitter
The little bastards want to chain me to the sink or even better
To the bed I can't get out of 
On a day with such rainy weather

Ooh Aah

If they could spin my head
Into a 360 degree rotation
They'd save themselves from my deliberate menace and aggravation
We're not all happy at the core
We're not all happy in our head
Tell them it's nothing personal it's just that I've been overbled

Chorus


Am I Broken?

Mind how you feel when I hit the right nerve
It's just my reaction to what I think you deserve
You have burrowed a hole into my core
And it's let all the love come pouring out of me

Chorus:
No
No
Let me go
No

Here comes the storm 
It's getting closer
I can feel the thunder before it bursts from the sky
Lightning
Hail storm
My heart
Deformed
Why, why do I let you loose inside
Why didn't I run, run the first time

The first time you showed me you were torn
Like paper on the concrete
Losing colour in the rain
Now I just close my eyes and let myself fall into the pain
Pain

Chorus

I am caught in your devil's net
In your private genocide
Even when it hurts I lay in the thorns sometimes
Been running for my life
Been running for so long
Just want to stop now
Before I feel it all go our from under my feet

I will meet you in hell

Chorus

You Better Leave Me 
(C) 2014 Erika Bach. All Rights Reserved 
<
That's me in the sky taking a dive 
Don't you stop me, no 
I feel alive 
I'm gonna be asking the big man 
To give me proof he's up there 
Cause when I look down on the misery 
It seems like he couldn't care 
Heavenly into despair 
I'm looking for a tingling 
I'm looking for something 

Let's go for a ride 
I won't talk too much 
Let's take drugs and alcohol 
And drive real fast 
Let's pretend that we're 17 
Making out in the backseat 
I won't talk about jealousy 
And you won't be mean, mean 

Chorus: 
You better leave me before I eat you alive 

Yeah yeah yeah yeah 

You better leave me before I eat you alive 
You better leave shake free before I tie you down for life 
You better leave me before I close the gate 
You better leave me before it gets too late 

Chorus: 
You better leave me before I eat you alive 
You better leave me 
Can't keep my fingers off your dial 
You better love me 
If you don't run run run 
You better leave me 

Before I catch you cheating 
Leave before the world comes to an end 
Leave before my heart is bleeding 
Leave while I still think you're a man, 
Man 

Chorus: 
You better leave me before I eat you alive 
You better leave me 
Can't keep my fingers off your dial 
You better love me 
If you don't run run run 
You better leave me 
I'm not just anyone 

I'm the devil in your pocket 
The gun in your pants 
I'm the one that's going to take everything you have 
If you don't start showing me love, love, love 
Or give me some blow 
And I'll just tell you to fuck off.

You Better Leave Me (b4 i eat you alive)

Blood On My Lips 
(C) 2014 Erika Bach. All Rights Reserved

Remember the radio 
Sunday we'd be stoned 
Getting high to feel this low 

We did not recognize 
Where desperation lies 
Now I stop you from putting that gun in your mouth 

Chorus: 
If there is blood on my lips 
Then it's you darling 
That brought me to this 
If there is blood on my lips 

Remember the years we made 
Love every night and day 
Before the light came on 

I was unaware 
Your love stained everywhere 
Now I see it's war 
And god is just a whore 

Chorus 

I may seem a fanatic 
I scream and I panic 
When I can't see my habit relieve the sore 

Friction and iodine 
I wanted to make you mine 
But the world just stopped spinning 
To go slow, slow, slow 

Chorus 

Yeah


Blood On My Lips

I Love Anton
(C) 2014 Erika Bach. All Rights Reserved
.
There is no one under my bed
Nothing to get twisted around in my head
Is it electricity that makes me believe that me is she
And she is free

Chorus:
And free is not to be tied to he
Because he means pain
And he means shame
He has ruined everything
He has ruined everything
Let go of the rope
The answer is no
Because you made me cry
I love Anton

Well if the sun doesn't shine where you lie
Then you better make way and prepare to die
Because if life is living in a box
No matter how much stuff you've got
And there's no sunshine
Hey take a look at the sky

Chorus:
Don't wait for god to decide
Because he means pain
And he means shame
We have ruined everything
We have ruined everything
Let go of the rope
The priest and the pope
Because you let me down
I love Anton

And now I feed on the pain
Feed on the pain

I love Anton

There is no one under my spell
No one desperate or hopeless to dive into my hell
There are no answers to the questions
Only questions I can't answer for anyone else

And now you turn your back on me
And tell me that I'm free
I've only got one thing to tell you honey
I love Anton

Free to be insane
I love Anton 
I love Anton
I love Anton


I Love Anton (lyrics)

A little over 1 week ago Laser Beam challenged me to write a happy song or happy love song, and I've never been able to manage a happy song without it being total shit, so I really thought about what actually made me happy right now, and it was my buddies here on Soundcloud. I have never felt so much love coming to me virtually or otherwise in a long time, so I thought I'd write a song with all (or at least as many as possible) people I've connected with through SC. I managed 56 around which I've tried to make a story for this song.
There are many more, but including everyone would mean a book, not a song. I AM grateful to everyone though, for all their support and love. So this This IS A lalaLOVE song for you.

Like a LASERBEAM shining into me
Can't tell you just how happy it's making me
I've got a HEADCHARGE Triple 7 heaven
Floating on a cloud with AN DI YI
Life can be heavy and it's some kind of WEIGHTY TREE
Now with my SPLINTERED FINGER I call on GLUTTONY
Kill who you want but don't you KILLWHITY
Oh life is SWEET, sweet like MELI

Chorus:
I lalaLove You

With a DYSLEXIC SOUL I turn on FRENCH RADIO
IT burns ASLOWFIRE through to the ABSTRACT DAWN
I drive too fast sometimes WHEELRIGHT and left
TRAVELLING WAVE high low with CAPTAIN LEST
Through ATLAS CEDAR it's a WONDERTRACK
SOFIA's magic forest yeah I'm never turning back
I'm DONEOFIT this FUCKED UP GENERATION
MSBESSIE she's ok
Love didn't kill her today

Chorus

SHOOT THE WENDY BIRD she gives me VERTI GO
THE COMA DOLLS on my mantel say it's time to go
FLOXYDE your peroxide blonde you know ROSES ARE BLUE
Tell Mr. TAYLOR I've got love and I've got it for you too
Take an EXCURSION into ECHO COSMIC
THE FISHERMAN threw in his line and now he's pulling on you
Ooh Ooh
Before we SCREATCH to a halt

Chorus

There's a MAN ON THE GRILL with a MELODY HEAD
He has a SU DA NYM they call him PSYCHOSPAIN
Don't STONE THE CROWS for their MOUNTAIN SONGS
It's only EVOLWEEVOL bringing on the storm
ABANDON THE INSIDE and BLANK AWAY
Today is not the last there's another on it's way
Life isn't like chocolate it's an INCONSISTENT JUKEBOX
No matter how much WHOLE WHEAT you eat
You can never get too much
ANDA and JOHN DONALD
JULIE and CHIARA
ESBEN HANSEN get out your YAGAS
PSYCHEEVIL in the stream will he find his way to GUIVILLE
It's a raging river
A push up a steep hill

Chorus:

Oh I love love love you
Yeah on yeah
I love love love you
Ash Wednesday
I love love love you
Yes I mean you MIDI PUNK

You’ve Been Lying
.
You took it to the top even when I said stop
You dressed yourself up fine
I didn’t have the time
You’re on the internet talking to your porno pets

Hey good looking I want nothing to do with you
When you come around
Who ‘ya fooling you’ve been playing on the internet
When you’re feeling down
Come on baby leave it alone
You know you’ll go blind
Hey good looking I want nothing to do with you
When you come around

It’s time it’s getting late
Don’t stop to masturbate
I do it better don’t I
But you don’t appreciate my love

I have a little twitch
While you sit back and itch
You scratch it crazy
Well baby I’ll just tell you that you’re lazy
All you had to do was talk, walk to me me
Oh come on

You’ve been lying

Huh I’m in the kitchen cooking
Huh you better watch you’re back 
You know I’m looking
Yeah I’m keeping my eyes on you
Yeah yeah yeah

Hey good looking I want nothing to do with you
When you come around
Who ‘ya fooling you’ve been playing on the internet
When you’re feeling down
Come on baby leave it alone
You know you’ll go blind
I do it better don’t I
I do it better sometime

Hey you’ve been lying yeah

I Don’t Want You 

Oh 
I don’t want you hanging ‘round 
Why don’t you just leave 
And I don’t want to be miss ‘please’ for you 
Oh I don’t want you touching me 
Get your hands out of my hair 
And I don’t want you kissing me 
Get your tongue out there 
I don’t want you touching me 
I don’t want you touching me 
I don’t want you touching me 
Got myself a new friend 
I don’t want you hanging round 
Got myself a new friend 
I don’t want you hanging round 
Got myself a new friend 

Chorus 
Love is what you see 
Down and on it’s knees 
In this family love is a disease 

The weather’s changing can you see it 
It’s raining cats and dogs 
You’re a man you’re a boy 
I’m a woman not your toy 
Let me out let me in 
I’ve got my thighs shaking 
Let me out let me in 
I’ve got my thighs shaking 
I’ve got my thighs shaking 
I’ve got my thighs shaking 
I’ve got my thighs shaking 
Let me out let me in 
I’ve got my thighs shaking 

Chorus 

Got my lipstick in my pocket and I’m not too scared to use it 
Wear my body-building bra for a body building man 
I don’t want you hanging round now I’ve flushed you down the toilet 
Found myself a new idea 
Found myself a new idea 
Got myself a new idea 
Got myself a new idea 
Got myself a new idea 
And I’m not too scared to try it 
Got myself a new idea 
Now I’ve flushed you down the toilet 
I’m in a hair free zone now 

Chorus 

And I’m not too scared to use it 
For a body building man 
I don’t want you hanging round now I’ve flushed you down the toilet 
Found myself a new idea 
Found myself a new idea 
And I’m hanging out to try it 
Get your goatie outa here 
I’m in a hair free zone now 
In a hair free zone now 
I’m in a hair free zone now 
I’m in a hair free zone now 
I don’t want you hanging round why don’t you just leave

Thanks to
- all the politicians who pissed me off
- war mongers and profiteers
- the mindless who follow and never ask a question
- Bill and Nano particles
- 2020 to now
- the biggest thanks goes to YOU for inspiration to stay alive and continue living. I took a deep dive, but came back up for air, polluted as it may be, and channeled the negative into music, where it's healthier for me.

Love one another and live free wherever you find it.

Was a good idea 
But it didn’t work try something else 
Can you think of anything better than messing with my mind 
Is this how you show love 
Is this how you show respect 
Watch me I’m gonna take all of my lovin’ back 

Yeah Let’s ride the tidal wave together 
We’re as good and as bad as eachother 
You’ve got your head on wrong 
And mine’s screwed too tight 

It’s a good idea but it’s never gonna work 
I just don’t like you that much 
I just want to make it hurt 
I could be nice but 
Fuck it I don’t wanna 
Why do you have to be such a loser baby 

Well I’ll try to ride the tidal wave together 
We’re as good and as bad as eachother

Love doesn't conquer all, but drugs can 

I'm alive 
I'm alive 
But I don't know for how long 
It's a black and white photograph on my wall 
Goodbye Lennie 
This is why she loves the drugs 
It's what a happy end is made of 
You know I'm sensitive to serial killers 

Put your crash helmet on 
You know we're riding on a missile 
We know it's going to go off 
But we just don't know when 
The world has rolled over 
It can even be flat again 
Queenie couldn't take it so she stabbed him with a ball point pen 
Let me say it again 
The girl couldn't take it 
So she killed her best friend yeah 

Chorus: 
You're in the government 
Do you have a plan 
Love doesn't conquer all, but drugs can 
(The streets are alive with pain 
We play in the acid rain 
And nobody takes the blame) 

So a meteor hits the planet and we all watch it on youtube 
Saying "oh ah wow imagin that" 
You better get under cover and hide 
Hide 

Chorus: 
You're in the government 
Do you have a plan 
Love doesn't conquer all, but drugs can 
The streets are alive with pain 
We play in the acid rain 
And nobody takes the blame

Talk to the preacher man that’s what you said to me 
As if he’d understand all the things you did to me 
You got lucky I said 
You got lucky that I didn’t tell your sister that you’re a real creep 
You’ve always got your one hand in the pocket of your jeans 
When a pretty young thing comes and gets you back into this century 

You got me 
I’ve got you 
And when we get down to it there’s nothing you can do 
You got me 
I’ve got you 
And when we get down to it there’s nothing you can do 


Well what are you waiting for 
Isn’t this your penny dropping 
Hell yeah I’m pissed get someone else to do your dishes mopping 
I got the fever 
I got the fever

Just doused the gasoline 
Can’t find the matches that’s what happens when you do the clean 

You got me

And when we get down to it there’s nothing you can do 
You got me

Don’t talk to me about love boy 
And sexy underwear 
Girls in bikinis walking 
Go ahead and see if I care 
I’ve got the picture baby 
Don’t need to make up speed 
You’re a creep

You’re a deadbeat

So far from the moon 
So far from the light 
Hammer down on the coin 
You might just get what you want tonight 
We live in a letigious world 
No spark no burn for a fast and wreckless girl 
Henry thinks it's a conspiracy 
When the only threat is the friendly enemy 
Too scared to move or say what he feels 
What he needs is a fire lighter 

There's no interesting people coming to the party anymore 
The less you expect, the more walk through the door 
What do we really have to talk about 
If it hasn't been on facebook 
The conversation's out 

Chorus: 
It's been raining 40 days 
Have my metal raincoat on 
It feels so long 
So wrong 
Who's been playing god 
I've been drunk for 40 nights 
With my gin sling on 
I feel so numb 

Spitting out blood from behind this hangover 
You're not strong enough for this fragile girl 
Sleeping all day, but jumping out of your skin 
Sinking into quicksand 
I don't want to talk anymore 
I have nothing to say 

Chorus 

Who's Been Playing God

I'm not leaving is a track from lola demo's 2023 Gravity album. Available on all online streaming platforms and from Bandcamp: https://lolademo.bandcamp.com

I'm Not Leaving

I'M NOT LEAVING

Just released my new album 'White Noise' today and have been struggling with which track to upload here on SC, so I thought I'd put this one on. The lyrics "where the wind blows, I cannot follow, where the river flows I cannot run" were written by Kelvyn Taylor https://soundcloud.com/kelvynt , who amongst others, responded to a call I put out on FB for anyone who wanted an opportunity to be part of the new album to offer up a line of lyrics. Kelvyns lyrics fit perfectly into this song and inspired the writing of it.

White Noise album is basically an emotional commentary on the bullshit, political and personal, global and local, that we try to block out of our pysche, but still manages to interfere with the clarity and perfect harmony we all wish to have in our lives.

For me there's no better way to block out their noise than by putting on some headphones and making my own noise.

Drowning Out The Noise

Where the wind blows I cannot follow 
Where the river flows I cannot run 
Will you give me something I can believe in 
Money in the ocean 
Poison in the sky 

Chorus 
I am not waiting 
I am not fading 
I am not listening 
I am drowning out the noise 

Willing and so blind 
These are the moments 
Hopeless electric buzzing in my head 
Into the dreaming 
Life could come to nothing more than a marker that we once were here 

Chorus 

Where the wind blows I cannot follow

Ego Mansize 
(C) Erika Bach. All Rights Reserved 

Driving to hell with a busload 
Busload of sinners 
Ego mansize 
Look into those eyes 
Fine illusions sleeping in my bed 
Wild delusions leading thoughts 
Thoughts into my head 

Liar liar 
World on fire 
We are bought 
We are sold 
We do what we have been told 

Chorus 
Ego mansize 
Ego mansize 
Power blisters between your thighs 
Will you tell lies 
Will you disguise 
Truth with dollar signs 

Standing on the edge of the world 
The world that we made 
These dreams will turn us into slaves 
If it's not too late 
Standing on the edge of the world 
The world that we made 
These dreams will turn us into slaves 

Chorus

Ego Mansize

First track from the White Noise album released Nov 2014. My version of political folk music.

People from around the world sent in videos of themselves filmed on phones, ipads and cams to be included in this video. It's very special to me.

Feed The Machine 

It's getting hard to breathe in 
I don't know what you're thinking 
While the river runs bloody and the sky is fire 
God's little children get a hell of a ride 

Chorus 
Feed the machine what is it for 
Hide what is real what is it for 

Blood like tears run down her face 
Could be the end of the human race 
Give me money for the things to get me by 
When I'm down give me pills so that I can get high 

Chorus 
Beat of your heart what is it for 
Beating so hard what is it for 
Feed the Machine what is it for 
Hide what is real what is it for 

Do androids dream of electric sheep 
Pray to the machine for their soul to keep 
Cut all the wires 
Shut the terminal down 
Fire off your missiles and burn the fucking thing to the ground 

There's a lie in the truth, but you need to think straight 
They will talk you into silence 
Give you demons to hate 
It's a white noise buzzing in your ears til they bleed 
A need against want 
A want against need 

Chorus 
Feed the machine what is it for 
Hide what is real what is it for 
Beat of your heart what is it for 
Beating so hard what is it for 
Feed the Machine what is it for 
Hide what is real what is it for

Feed The Machine

http://lolademo.bandcamp.com/track/thin-skin

Dirt under my skin 
Letting dirt get right in 
Paper thin 
Thin skin 
Into the cracks we fall 
Give me a soft place to land 
Will you listen when I call 

Chorus 
Thin skin 

Glass into the vein 
Will it hurt 
Will there be pain 
More or less 
Than the broken promises 
Heard you call on the wind 
And salvation for your sin 
Is this milk 
Is this honey 
That we're drowning in 

Chorus 

Liquid money sky 
Is it raining 
Is it raining blood this time 
Feel the sting in your eyes 
While they cash out all their lies 
Twisted and torn 
Hunted down since we were born 

Chorus 

Dirt under my skin 
Letting dirt get right back in 
Paper thin 
Thin Skin 

Dirt under my skin 
Letting dirt get right back in 
Paper thin 
Thin Skin

Lucky enough to have been born in a place where war only touches me from a distance. 


Thin Skin

I received a message from someone who was so disgusted by this track they abused me for about 4 paragraphs. I simply asked if their outrage toward young people dying extended to all those who find themselves at the wrong end of a missile or war bullet. This track is not glorifying the act of dying young, but a response to it.

Numb 
I feel numb 
I woke up from this dream with the sky red 
Like my anger 
At you who makes all the rules 
So wrong 
So hard to swallow 

Chorus 
I am ready 
And I am falling 
I am ready to die young 

Numb 
I feel numb 
Fractured by your decisions 
Made without a human heart 
Just a thermal spark 
Radioactive 

Chorus 

Numb 
I feel numb 
Are you stone man 
Twisting under thumb 
Salt into the wound 
Ghosts in the machine 
There are changes 
Changes coming 

Chorus

Testing Testing

I don’t feel big even though I know I am 
And I don’t feel strong even when I ram ram ram 
But yeah I feel you take advantage of me 
Oh Yeah I feel it’s not the way it should be 

Oh Oh Oh yeah 
You’re not getting away with it 
Oh Oh Oh yeah 
You’re not getting away with it 
Oh Oh Oh yeah 
You’re not getting away with it 

I don’t feel real when I know that I’m not 
And I don’t feel cool when I know I’m hot hot hot 
But yeah I feel you take advantage of me 
Oh Yeah I feel it’s not the way it should be 

I don’t feel wrong when I know that I’m right 
And I don’t feel bad even when we fight fight fight 

Yeah 

Oh Oh Oh yeah 
You’re not getting away with it 
Oh Oh Oh yeah 
You’re not getting away with it 
Oh Oh Oh yeah 
You’re not getting away with it 

We can’t love and I can’t take it 
We can’t talk and I can’t fake it 
We can’t be nice I can’t fake it 
Just your mouth ‘cause I can’t take it 

Yeah 

Oh Oh Oh yeah 
You’re not getting away with it 
Oh Oh Oh yeah 
You’re not getting away with it 
Oh Oh Oh yeah 
You’re not getting away with it

Not Getting Away With It

Feeling a little depressed that I have some commitments that will keep me away from recording music for another couple of months.  This is a going away presie until I get an opportunity to sling that guitar strap around my neck again.
Track 2 from White Noise album written and recorded at Strudel Girl Studio on the Greek island of Ithaca.

You Don't Know How I Feel 
(C) Erika Bach. All Rights Reserved 


You don't know how I feel 
You don't know how I feel 
You don't know how I feel 
When I hide in the corner of my room 
You don't know how it hurts 
It hurts oh it hurts 
This is how I mess it up 
Burn the skin until it blisters 
Never learned to shut my mouth 
Turn me on I'm your transistor 

Choose love from a catalogue 
Choose man from a picture on my wall 
Nobody's going to get inside 
Nobody's going to make me cry 
Nobody's going to tear my heart out 
Nobody's going to get inside 
Nobody's going to make me cry 
Nobody's going to tear my heart out 
Not this time 

Terramin and razor blades 
Will I get what I want today 
I don't want to go outside 
Daylight blinds me sometimes 
You don't know how I feel 
You don't know how I feel 
You don't know how I feel 
You don't know how I feel 

I'm alive 
I'm alive 
I'm alive

You Dont Know How I Feel

Continuing in my series of Cover versions of artists I love on Soundcloud. This is a Gelow Foster Track called 'The Wave'

The Wave written by Gelow Foster (C) 2015. All Rights Reserved
Performed and Recorded by lola demo June 2016.

The Wave

Welcome on the wave, ready for the change
Lord , how to get a rendez-vous ?
Do the people share, Does my ego care ?
I dream a little, I swear
to be clever for the tripes

Just talk about it, don't tell it anybody 
Don't share your body, 
Lord not to get into a groove .

What has to be done ? My brain is like a bone
Rules can't offer what you want.
I saw you puny first, Does my ego share ?
Psychological turns they can't offer you a rise .

He's falling out ; he's dancing pre-chorus

I get my mind from a station docket, pocket
And I get along well in tale chorus
(He must be getting along...

Lord is looking over me 
Jack is not my enemy
Love is not a trouble there
All the things are changing
