Broken Aphrodite is a collection of songs I've written that tells tales of love gone wrong, love gone right, love not exactly acting the way it should from a female perspective as these songs are songs I hope to one day give to women to sing as part of the album.

If you are a woman and interested, please feel free to contact me so we could work out how to bring these songs to life...with the right kind of voice.

Broken Aphrodite

ONCE UPON A TIME - Misha Askar Original Song

Do you remember the last kisses you gave me?
Or the way you waved to me?
When we parted?

Do you remember the last embrace you gave me?
When you laced me in your arms?
When you were a part of-

My life.

My soul.

My everything. 

My all...

Was all I could give to you...
But it was never enough

CHORUS
you were never there...
You never cared...
You were always in youtr own way

You were never here.
You wanted me but didn't want to feel, 
All I could do was tell you I tried, 

As you kissed me in your last goodbye.

Goodbye....

Goodbye...


Do you remember when you used to kiss my hand?
said I was your woman and you were my man.
Before I become love's martyr?

Do you remember our last "I love you"?
The day you tore me in two,
and departed

All the afternoons we laid in love, 
Where your kisses sooth, 
the gloom from my heart and- 

When you used to sing to me, 
Every soft melody, 
With a lullaby that you started, 

And loved me like I was yours, 
With a force that broke the scores, 
When you tore it apart and-

Crafted dreams with me,
a life of travel and mystery, 
that you shattered and pardoned.


Hoooo oooooo

Nooo  noooo


My life.

My soul.

My everything. 

My all...

I had given all to you, 
But you were all out of love?

PERFUMED SLEEP

ONCE UPON A TIME

PARADOX - Misha Askar Original Song

VERSE 1
We are careless
We breath the air 
and think we don't
need it, 

Speaking words
We didn't think  to say
but saying things without thinking,

We are fearless, 
We fight when we don't know how to throw punches, 

We get angry without knowin' to release it, 
except when we release it
and realized we werent angry at all.  

CHORUS
It's a paradox, 
What we are, and never were, 
What we had but never had, 
Were you really here or was I just bad?
I dunno what's sadder,
that you once breathed 
but now none of that matters.
ohhh it's a paradox, 
You're an afterthought


VERSE 2
We are sleepless, 
Can't fight the dawn
but kiss the midnight, 
then wonder what's wrong
when we can't 
fall into
our dreams.

We are helpless, 
We try and we try
but its failure
that we've
mastered profusely, 
wondering when
will we get it right again.

[Chorus]
It's a paradox, 
What we are, and never were, 
What we had but never had, 
Were you really here or was I just bad?
Now none of that matters.
You're an afterthought

PARADOX

The Things I say to Myself - Misha

I'm tired of the whispers, 
That promises have long broken,
Keep playing, 
In the wind, 
To my face, 
Like I failed.


I am done, 
With being the victim, 
I'm done with hurting like I don't know, 
How to kill my sorrow, 


I am here, 
Fighting every tear like I don't own them, 
But who owns them at all, 
If not me?


I'm dying inside, 
I'd try to live but instead, 
I end up just trying to survive.

I'm beating my self again, 
Trying to be my worst best friend, 
Whose never there
Whose everywhere
But here with me.

I'm beating my heart again, 
Trying to pump it back with from a place long gone, 
Whence I was someone, 
Who I've forgotten. 

Lets all pretend, That's it all good, 
Like it never shook up this neighborhood, 
in my mind, in my soul, all in your time, 

I'm dying to know, 
When will you feel my call, 
Calling to you, your bones like I owned them.
Yeah...Again 

I'm tired of needing you
Tired of thinking all I do, 
is live only for another, 
Nothing left for me to discover,

I want to feel alive again, 
I want to know you can love wholly,
without the pretense,
or the need to be, 
a person behind a mask and a heart that's broken.


These are the things I say to myself, 
again,
and again,
and again,
and again,

(again)

and again...

Hooooo

Hooooo

Hooooo


It's time I go, 
I go where I don't know, 
I never could be someone's ghost...
Just someone's  life, 
that you've felt had been devoted

to you...

to you...

to you...

to you...

to you....


But I guess, 
I digress, 
You never cared that much, 
Any way....

Never cared...
Now I walk away, 

Never cared...
Now I walk away, 

Now it's my turn to slam this door in your face.

Goodbye.

Don't wait up for me. 
Don't wait for me...
Never wait for me...anymore.

THINGS I SAY TO MYSELF - ACOUSTIC

Barren Rock - Misha 

Your smile, 
a broken lie, 

Your eyes, beheld the the times, 

You had broken me, 
With every kind word, 


But if I had to give in...

Its all on you,

A dream for two, 
Into the Abyss..



It's why  we died and sighed, 
As the moon came up, 

I see nothing for me...
I see nothing  for me...but barren rock.


Nothing sweet comes from you.

Lies are your poetry, 

The sable words that imprison me.


Do I recall, that  you care at all?

Cold

Cold 

Heart of stone.
All alone.

...Nothing but barren rock.

BARREN ROCK

My Little Red Dancer - Misha Askar


Do you see her?


(Like a rhythm in my mind,)

Sweetness in your flavor, 
Pain in mine, 

The taste of you....
will balance this life, 

The drip of sanguine, 
A nectar to these years, 

(I bite with hatred,) 
But I sup with nothing but love, 

Make me whole   
And give in.

Lay your soul
On the altar of my skin.

Break away from the dawn,
And let the darkness in.

Let me in...

My little Red Dancer,

Crimson lips, 
To help me forget, 

Gliding my fingers,
Down the back of your dress, 


Mixed with your blood and sweat, 

The drip of sanguine,
Is the wine to my time, 

I bite with fate, 
But drink with lust, 

Let me in...

My little Red Dancer...

(Sanguine...)

My Little Red Dancer...

Broken Aphrodite
