Description: I cried for you... what a fool I used to be.

Ooh... Ooh...

What doesn't kill you, makes you wish you were dead
Got a hole in my soul, growing deeper and deeper
And I can't take one more moment of this silence
The loneliness is haunting me
And the weight of the world's getting harder to hold up

It comes in waves, I close my eyes
Hold my breath and let it bury me
I'm not okay, and it's not alright
Won't you drag the lake and bring me home again?

Who will fix me now? Dive in when I'm down?
Save me from myself, don't let me drown
Who will make me fight? Drag me out alive?
Save me from myself, don't let me drown

What doesn't destroy you, leaves you broken instead
Got a hole in my soul growing deeper and deeper
And I can't take one more moment of this silence
The loneliness is haunting me
And the weight of the world's getting harder to hold up

It comes in waves, I close my eyes
Hold my breath and let it bury me
I'm not okay, and it's not alright
Won't you drag the lake and bring me home again?

Who will fix me now? Dive in when I'm down?
Save me from myself, don't let me drown
Who will make me fight? Drag me out alive?
Save me from myself, don't let me drown

'Cause you know that I can't do this on my own
(Woah oh oh oh)
'Cause you know that I can't do this on my own
(Woah oh oh oh)
'Cause you know that I can't do this on my own
(Woah oh oh oh)
('Cause you know that I can't do this on my own)

Who will fix me now?
Who will fix me now?
Who will fix me now? Dive in when I'm down?
Save me from myself, don't let me drown

Finally get to hear how these lyrics work when produced into something that sounds like an actual song.
........................................................

Time stood still, just for a moment
And the earth was flat and endless

And a light shone down from a higher realm
And the peace was totally limitless

And my dreams they all crashed down
In a sculpture on the ground

And all my loss was found
And all my sorrow drowned
And everything was fine
Just for a moment

Time stood still, one more moment
Let it last a little longer

And justice was held high and real
And the love could never be stronger

And my heart could never cry
And my mind it could not lie

And my fear lay down and died
And my soul lit up the sky
And standing still was I 
Just for a moment

SOLO

And my heart could never cry
And my mind it could not lie

And my fear lay down and died
And my soul lit up the sky
And standing still was I
Just for a moment

Just one moment
One moment that will never be again

Time Stood Still


I stood on the edge, shadows closing in,
Carried the weight of all that might have been.
A spark in my hand, too tired to fight,
I let it fall, and watched the night ignite.

Smoke rising, painting the sky,
A funeral pyre for the years gone by.
No turning back, no second chance,
This is the end of the final dance.

Burned bridges light the night, but leave no way back,
Every spark a memory, every step a crack.
The fire roars, the past erased,
In the ashes, I find my place.

Each flame a truth, each ember a lie,
I thought I’d feel free, but I just wonder why.
The heat on my face, the cold in my chest,
I’m still running, though I swore I’d rest.

Smoke rising, a ghost in the air,
It whispers your name, but you’re not there.
The ties are broken, the path is clear,
But the silence cuts deeper than fear.

Burned bridges light the night, but leave no way back,
Every spark a memory, every step a crack.
The fire roars, the past erased,
In the ashes, I find my place.

Was it courage, or was it spite?
Did I burn it down to make it right?
Now the flames are gone, the coals grow cold,
But the scars remain, and the truth unfolds.


Burned bridges light the night, but leave no way back,
Every spark a memory, every step a crack.
The fire roars, the past erased,
In the ashes, I find my place.

Standing alone where the embers glow,
The path ahead is all I know.
Each step forward, a part of me fades,
Burned bridges, but the flame never sways.

Burned Bridges(Lyrics)

I cried for you... what a fool I used to be.

Walking down the dusty road
Lost but not alone
Heard a voice within my soul
Light to guide me home

Now I share this simple truth
For every heart to see
His grace is a gift for you
Come and be set free

The miracle of salvation
Saving me from strife
In His arms I found redemption
He’s the way, the truth and the life

Saw the sky was opening
A love that never fades
Felt the grace of everything
Found in Jesus' ways

Now I share this simple truth
For every heart to see
His grace is a gift for you
Come and be set free

The miracle of salvation
Saving me from strife
In His arms I found redemption
He’s the way, the truth and the life

In the darkest of my times
He was always there
Lifted me with endless love
He answered every prayer

Now I share this simple truth
For every heart to see
His grace is a gift for you
Come and be set free

The miracle of salvation
Saving me from strife
In His arms I found redemption
He’s the way, the truth and the life

"Old Love Letters," the latest offering from Makinen, is a poignant journey through the ruins of romance, a sonic exploration of love's quiet decay. This album isn't about fiery breakups or dramatic confrontations; it's about the subtle, creeping erosion of connection, the spaces left behind when passion fades.

"Old Love Letters," the latest offering from Makinen, is a poignant journey through the ruins of romance, a sonic exploration of love's quiet decay. This album isn't about fiery breakups or dramatic confrontations; it's about the subtle, creeping erosion of connection, the spaces left behind when passion fades.

From the melancholic hum of "Low-Grade Thunder," where the once vibrant spark of a relationship dwindles to a mere echo, to the desolate emptiness of the title track, "Old Love Letters," where cherished promises become meaningless relics, Makinen masterfully captures the bittersweet ache of lost intimacy. "Superficial" cuts through the haze with a sharp, cynical edge, exposing the hollow facade that can replace genuine affection.

Makinen's signature blend of alt-pop creates a soundscape that's both intimate and expansive, allowing the listener to fully immerse themselves in the emotional landscape of the album. "Old Love Letters" is a collection of reflections on love's fragility, a reminder that even the most passionate flames can flicker and fade, leaving behind only the ghost of what once was. This is an album for anyone who has loved, lost, and found themselves sifting through the remnants of a faded connection.
